Marg . Daniel collapsed in the hallway and was taken to hospital with suspected appendicitus but it calmed down so they left it and if it flares up again he has to go straight back.

Just spent 2 hours in the bath - so am a bit more wrinkly than usual - my book was just too good to put down lol!

Madfrog - if you're doing a link within your blog post you just click the link button like you do on here - think it's a green globey thing and paste the page you want to go to in the pop up.

Gemma - that eyelash stuff looks like eyelash knitting yarn - you can ofter pick some up for about 70p a ball in wilkos or poundstrecher or instore or whatever its called.

thanks for the tip off, I will have a look next time I'm in town

To (mis)quote Sir Steve Redgrave......
If you ever see me near some jewellery making equipment again, shoot me!

Have finally made ny button necklaces (kind of). Now have sore fingers and patches of super glue on them. Better go and get in the bath now - off to the spa at Center Parcs tomorrow and my legs are so hairy they could be mistaken for Sherwood Forest!

I hate that job a bit like dusting you just finish and need to start again

Tiny Congrats on becoming an Aunty :T What is your nephews name?
Mel You are brill at finding links :A
Tired mom Hope your DD is beter over night. The workshop sounded really interesting. You can pick up some really good techniques on those.
I can't help you as far as printing images and pro markers, but I believe that you need to use ink pads such as momento with the pens so they don't bleed through the outline of the stamped image.
Dawnteabag Where did you get your buttons from? I lurrrve buttons. I once used wire and red buttons to make a heart shape and hang it on my twig lights during Valentine week. I change the decor on the twig lights periodically during the different seasons.
Enjoy your spa tomorrow/oops I mean later today..
I loved the bit about your hairy legs.. :rotfl:

I'm going to bed now nite nite zzzz

Naughty Padster posting links to shoes! I just bought these! I bought a pair from the shop in London last year and they are made from recycled leather and memory foam - but I paid £90!!

Rainmac - I'll have to give it a try - I'd never thought of using it for that before! What tool do you use with it to actually do the scoring?

I stumbled upon this blog before - she enters her cards into loads of challenges and writes at the same time what the challenge is, so if you're looking to enter a card into loads of challenges its worth looking on here (I hope I make sense).

I fold the card over the edge of the gullotine so if I want to score at 2 inches I line the piece of card up at 2 inches and crease the card over the edge. Take it off the guillotine and then fold. Does that make sense? It's how I've made baskets, boxes, post-it note holders etc. Does that make sense?
