I want my posty to come now so I can see if my ribbons have arrived!!

Made a card and have another 4 in the pipeline but all are DT work so can't share them!! ... Will see if I can make something thats not DT work as my blog is being neglected!

hope everyone is ok?

wow lucky you having 4 DT projects to do! I have applied for so many teams recently and only made it onto one wish I had more cards that I *had* to make as it would encourage me to make more stuff rather than just thinking 'nah I can't be bothered'!

yay :j have lots of fun with it, I definitely use my bug more than my robo (for embossing mainly) as it's much quicker than plugging in my laptop etc

I am just trying to keep on top of things! have 2 I *NEED* to make but then the one I just made is for november lol and the other one is needed before then! I need to work out what I need to do as never done anything like this and we go away at the end of the month for just over a week so need to make sure I can auto post or something. I applied for loads and loads and this is my first time, you made it onto a DT before me lol

Can't remember if mine is turned on or off, but I prefer to have it on as there are so many people spamming and this prevents a fair bit of it!! I think it is up to people wether they have it on or off and no one should be told to turn it off or on!

Afternoon - what a wet and horrible day we are having here!!!!

Had a phonecall from iconuk yesterday regarding the faulty lid on the promarker. Asked me to send it back and they would replace it and refund my postage costs.

Carmim - thanks for the link to the baby images, some good ones there. I've become a follower of your blog also!!!

I've just found a Beatrix Potter freebie from a magazine with some papers and things in it - as I won't ever use it I was wondering if a newbie cardmaker on here might like it to add to their stash. If you do PM me!!

hi
I didn't mean to cause offense. I don't know anyone who has been spammed once they turned word verification off. An alternative is to turn blog owner approval on for all blog comments so you have to approve them before they go onto your blog. That way it's still quick and simple for people to leave you comments but you control the comments and no spam.
