Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

RustyFlange

Sorry to butt in but I found some of the oval thingys the other day on my quest for finding cards for these invites. They have some in various shapes and sizes here Now the postage can be quite costly but if anyone wants anything then I live just down the road and can always be persuaded easily to go take a trip and pick them up for you just shout. (you will have to scroll down the page to find them.)

They look really good on some of the decoupage cards and they do help to protect it but i think i do tend to overbuy i still have about 7 or 8 packs lol.
I do have some decoupage sheets so will use some up . I have just 1 pack of ovals i think as i used those with the oriental ladies and silly me forgot to take pics.

Ooo yes it was me!! The SU ones were specially for putting sweeties in as they were more of a half ball shape IYKWIM. The only problem was they were very expensive for something that wouold just be thrown away. The shallow ones I found were for using flower soft stuff or like you say protecting decoupage. Rusty they are really cheap, do you think they will be deep enough to put sweeties in or are they for confetti stuff!

Not sure? I think they would be quite shallow still but I would have thought you could put smaller sweets in? I will pop up there and have a look in a couple of days, then can let you know and if you want some then I can go get them for you ....

Looking at the ones i have they would be too shallow for sweets but i have seen pics of the ones you mean they are quite deep kinda like an easter egg half iyswim .

The prize is a secret but I went to the range and bought a few goodies
