    Happy birthday OAP.

    Thankyou everyone for your birthday wishes for yesterday.

    Well done Dragonllew and Ali.B.

    I went to Hobbycraft today and bought Bo Bunny and K&Company papers, glossy accents, card blanks and some ribbons to build up my stash. I've been making cards for a while now but they were quite basic, nothing as good as everyones on here. Fingers crossed, with time they will be as nice as yours. :)

    I've had a lovely afternoon, colouring with my new promarkers - I've never used them before. Trouble is, I can see myself getting quite addicted. :rotfl:

    Congratulations Ali.b - you're on a roll:D

    Tomsmum     - glad you're pleased with your Epson printer. I print my digis out in draft and papers in photo. I printed some papers the other day on tesco value paper and have to say they were perfectly usable!

    I've had a fab day at the craft workshop, can't believe how many things we made. Surprisingly I didn't buy a thing - despite using a fab Sizzix die that I would get lots of use out of. Perhaps you stash ban junkies have influenced me:cool: However, I used Copics (uhhhh oh) and love them even more than my Promarkers, so they're definately on the wish list.

    For anyone not on a stash ban, I just found this site which has some interesting things on it including things for altered art and lots of vintage bits and bobs. Postage is free also so that's nice!!! They have the Viva Pearl Pens for £3.25 but not many colours.
