Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

thriftyscotslass

Now no laughing - I've got battery acid on my tongue (don't ask :rotfl:) and I'm sat here with my tongue in a cup of milk - any other sensible suggestions about what I can do please (I am NOT going to A&E - far too embarrassing).

Glad you are feeling a little better Rusty - still massive hugs to you and Missy Moo.

Rusty just had a look at those papers they are £15 not £5 as it says in your above post, thought they were cheap for 12x12s :rotfl::rotfl:
I don't really need any just didn't want to miss them if they were cheap!!!:D

I'm banned from spending at the moment! I did get up early and caught the postie before he rang the bell! and smuggled my Secret Crafter stash into the craft room lol

Erm can I claim it was supposed to say £15 not £5 :rotfl: Sorry flourgirl!! must have been so excited that my fingers didn't want to work!! What did you order from secret crafter? (see how nosey I am?)

Glad to hear you're feeling a bit less down Rusty, must have been such a shock . I see the spendy elves are keeping you occupied, just don't send them my way!!! Ordered £11 of card from Creative Craft World today to take advantage of free delivery and 10% off, great bargain, got lots of gorgeous pink and lilac card coming in loads of shades

Made a nappy cake and 36 little bags of sweets for DS1's party next week. All on my blog as I am quite proud of them Need a rest now but not even time for a cuppa as we need to get moving and pick DS1 up from school.

Can't believe the NEC is next week :j :j :j. Will we meet outside the hall like before, what time suits, think it was 10 or 10.30 last time???

Was a huge shock I can keep the spendy elves here for another day if you want? :rotfl: What card did you order? just bazill? will go have a nosey on your blog later on, I have to rush out aswell!! NEC :j :j :j 10:30 :eek: Maybe I should set off at 2am in the morning :eek: poor bunbun and flourgirl will be shattered :rotfl: oh and me aswell!!

Melissa - Were they from wild orchid? I ordered from them a while back, I ordered 200 like you think mine were either 10mm or 15mm ones but they are quite small!

Thrifty - sorry I know I shouldn't ask but how??? Give the NHS direct number a call, they will be able to advise you over the phone! hope you get it sorted!!

I have made 2 cards!! :j I have a few different challenges to enter them in but need to find a couple more. Will blog them seperately later on, and then I can enter them both!! They are both very similar though!

Rusty I ordered a pack of 34 12x12 Christmas Papers (Kars) they were reduced to £8 from £14-99 and free p&p Lovely too, most of them can be used all year round, nothing christmassy about them

I've just made 2 cards 1 for Papertake Weekly and 1 for Creative Card Crew, haven't blogged yet!!

Rusty you can pick me up whenever you like, me and bunbun can go back to sleep in the car:rotfl: We need to sort out a pick up point en route... Services maybe...

flourgirl

Oooo Rainmac your Baby cake is fab! and I love your party bags, all the other kids mums will be jealous of your creativity

flourgirl

Thrifty I would ring the Drs if I were you, just to be on the safe side
