TomsMom - I'm going to go back to hobbycraft later this morning and if I find it I will happily get some more for you. Are you bothered about what colour - on the website is shows different colours but not sure if the store would stock them all. Sure you only want 3 sheet will get you more if you want it and they have it. Let me know. I'll be leaving here about 11.

Thanks so much CT. Oh, go on then, I'll have 6 . Any colour is fine, whatever they have. I've just got my other Nesties on ordinary black magnetic sheets so I've no preference.

CT I have just quickly tried them and they are really nice. Yes I have done them in the cuttlebug. They are quite deep and the debossed side is lovely too. I have tried the snowflake on glitter card and thats lovely. I can send you some if you want a look first.

Oh and if you are on a stash ban they take paypal

Thanks - I've been looking for a snowflake embossing folder, and didn't like the normal cuttlebug folders that I usually buy, so since they are so cheap for 4 of them with free postage then I'll just buy a set. Thanks for the offer though. xx

Ok CT no probs. I dont think you will be dissapointed, they will be perfect for those gems you have just bought, hope you have lots of tiny glue dots lol x

Just a quickie am actually working this morning but have my eye on my lappy while stuff is saving

For those of you with gem sticking problems - have you tried this

It's a page of tiny dots - you drop your gems on push em down then pull em off with tweezers and the weeny dots of glue stick to the back - no sticky fingers or runny glue (can you tell I love this stuff) :D

I use PVA to stick my tiny gems, i have a little bottle with a really fine tip that you keep a pin in, you get a bottle of PVA for about 1.99 and it really does last forever!

Just a quickie to say I am still around. I have been reading the posts but have not had much time for crafting because we have been so busy trying to organise MIL to come and live near us.

She is now in a Care Home nearby and I don't have to keep travelling up and down the motorway. However, I am busy visiting a lot until she settles in, and then I hope to be back to some sort of routine.

Sorry to hear about your son Craftygranny, hugs to everyone who needs them.
