Hello all ! :j
So excited...............!!:j Next door neighbours having a clear out and I'll be gaining a lovely chest of drawers her grandad made.........looks almost tailor made for craft papers -just what I need (once I work out where to put it.................lol:rotfl:
I'm so thrilled -at last all my 'stuff' can be in one place :T Just had to tell you:rotfl:

ooh Mary I would be excited too! I love crafty storage almost as much as stash!!

which leaves me wondering...is craft storage included in my stash ban do you think...? opinions welcome

mary-op

Gemma - no wouldn't have thought so.........I've ''imposed'' a short ban on myself thats not working very well at the minute but at least the drawers I'm getting bare freebies so maybe thats where you'll have to draw the line...........has to be free or at least very very cheap................lol

(OH is having quiet grunt -we're supposed to be getting rid of stuff he says..........and I'm trying to explain that the stuff we're getting rid of is c**p - whats coming into the house isn't -also getting chest of drawers, matching bedside cupboard and two tall cupboards.................lol:rotfl:)

Ali.b - your prize will be in the post tomorrow, sorry for the delay. x

Gemm - storage doesn't count as it's an essential for helping you to organise and see stash you already have!! I've signed up the ATC swap, thanks for organising it, I'm loving making and swapping them (they're kind of addictive).

I'm s'posed to be making a card, but am lacking inspiration for a layout! The problem is I know which papers and embellies I want to use and I think it's kind of stiffling where I could go iyswim!

Hi everyone

lol thanks Mary and WBR - in that case I am looking into promarker storage as I've recently aquired a few more for my birthday and they have almost outgrown my current system...!

flourgirl - for the fluffy stuff do you need a heat gun???

B*gger, I hope not otherwise mine isn't going to get very fluffy

Thank you for the lovely comments on my black and grey card, it's very not me but I do quite like it.

Rainmac - LMAO so your forgiven. Which snowflake dies did you get? I'm kind of umming and arrrghing over wether to get snowflake dies or punches (not that I should be spending atm, think I've blown my budget for the next few months!!)

I got this one, thought I could layer them up or use them individually. Also want a pointsettia set but going to have to wait for those

Many congratulations on your win xxx

You do need a heat gun :mad:, do you reckon a hairdryer would work

rainmac - on the glitter pot it doesnt mention it but it did on Grafton Crafts - I havent got a heat gun either - but I do have a husband who has a lot of hot air - when he moans about me on here - so I could send him down to you!!
