Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

louby-lou-lou

I got half of the wedding card done while the kids were in bed last night and while i watched Big Brother, i will have to do the rest tonight. Been out all day, just got back and the postman has bought me 4 lovely leaflets with details about a certain little craft fair we might be interested in but nah i'm sure you all don't want to go again do you?
I got quite excited when i opened them, how sad. I am so going this year as i won't be 9 months pg this time. I got free tickets the year before i will try again but if not i will use my tesco points.

Lei - Toilet roll - students are always running out of it! How about some pens too?

Marg

Lei - a laundry bin/bag &/or some Persil/Ariel - if he doesn't use the latter he'll want something to tote it home in for your Mum.:)

Mad Frog - Thanks!

Lei - not sure if this helps but I've done little SOS boxes for my two sons (well grown up but still might find them useful)
I've filled them with things they might run out of -batteries, elastoplast, spare toothbrush/toothpaste, drawing pins, blutac, sachet of shampoo, rennies, paracetamol,-bits like that.

Going through some books today that I'd got from charity shop and inside one were 6 little sheets of handmade paper, sort of oatmeal colour. How do I stick that on to card ? Never used it before and don't want to wreck it.
