    Rusty Hope the interview went well for your OH
    Jellybaby I never think my cards are up to the standard of others but practise makes perfect right! Hope to see some of your cards soon
    Flourgirl I agree with everyone else, you should apply to be a DT member, your cards are always gorgeous
    Irlip I tend to use prefolded cards from Craftwork Cards or The Works. I only fold my own if I want to make a special shaped one
    Gemm glad to hear you've got a leaving date :j
    Welcome back Ali, glad you enjoyed the camping
    Well done to our most recent winners :j x

    Snipped you sorry- well it is our anniversary today so I suppose...............................;) :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    And he made me a card - was a nervous wreck when I heard from the kitchen where I'd been banished that he was using my promarkers but his colouring is better than mine :o
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    I am just in the the postman has been with my ink and Promarkers:D I am not sure I have chosen the right colours as I have none suitable for hair so it looks like I am off to order more!

    That is me ready to try my first stamp, just wait I will be useless:o:rotfl:

    To everyone that has given me information and help over the last few weeks with all my questions thank you:T

    Special thanks to Melissa75, Rusty and Flourgirl for offering to send me things to get me started I really do appreciate it:D

    I will no doubt be on with loads of more questions!!

    Off to try and put a pic of all my thing on my Blog:)

    Well - we're just back from Coombe Abbey - the kids had a fab time - Brandon loved the shop the most - although the slinky that he bought wont work on the stairs - so he's not happy!! Leo managed to get stung by stinging nettles - I think it was a doc leaf that I rubbed all over him!!!

    Gemm - I'm glad to hear that you've been given your leave date!! I bet you feel so relieved now!!

    Kms26 - oh no - I hope your day picks up!

    PepPop - I like the look of that new machine!

    Ali - welcome back!!!

    Rainmac - hope you managed to finish your ironing!! I think I will join the swap - so long as my partner doesn't mind waiting!!!

    Irlrip - yeah - your stuff has finally arrived!!!! Have you got any yellows that you could use for blond hair????

    Paddingtondoo - happy anniversary!!

    thanks everyone :j I am literally counting down the days now!

    flourgirl - thanks for excusing me off the stash diet :rotfl: I am trying to be good until we go on holiday though but I think I may deserve a little treat when I get paid at the end of august, just to tide me over :rotfl:

    padster how sweet of your OH! you were brave to let him loose with your promarkers :eek: if my OH went anywhere near mine, I'd be checking every one to see if he had put the lids back on properly :rotfl: happy anniversary ;)

    Irlip - can't wait to see what you make, pleased your ink and pens came! :)

    melissa hope Leo is ok (not too sore!!)

    My mum just rang and asked if I could make her a card - was well chuffed - then she said could it be funny for the vicar - WHAT!!!! - not a nice & easy one then!!! I've googled clipart/free images - cartoons of vicars - but nothing - nightmare - wonder if my beer monster image would be any good???? Looks like she might be off to the card shop - lol.

    Melissa - Oh I hope Leo is ok.

    I have the following "yellowish" colours : sandstone, honeycomb, mustard, caramel and buttercup. Do you think they are ok or should I get some more while they are cheap?
