Thanks for the comments on my button bracelets, I wasn't sure if they looked ok or not as I liked them but whilst chatting with my Dad on MSN today he told me he didn't like them!!! Thanks Dad!!!

Craftygranny - thank you so much for picking me for the storage folder on CP and thanks to Kaitlyn for choosing me!!! I've pm'd you about it.
OAP - hope the rain kept off for you and the other 6000 people doing the Hold Hands for Heroes.

I tried to catch up on a few blogs last night but I am abit behind. Some lovely makes on the ones I did see though.

Well done to our winners.

Hope everyone is ok and that you have all had a great weekend.

I've just came across a brilliant blog, it's kinda like the Free Digistamp one but it's got everything on it. I think she lists all the freebies weekly but I'm not sure.

Ohhh Craftygranny thats lovely thank you so much and a big thank you to Kaitlyn, it will certainly go to a good home.:):)
I am moving on Friday if Im packed - I am totally blaming Gemm as she gave the heads up to that site so I sat and made a card, then I made two more lol I will bl*g them tommorow. :rotfl:
I never knew how much stuff we had! Its unbelivable - we cleared the attic today , I am reluctantly packing my crafts away tommorow.:eek:
PONR Im not moving far away , I know you were asking other day about embossing machines etc - if you wanted a try I've a big shot you can borrow for a few weeks when your home.
I have a lovely die which has a snowmans head , father christmas, reindeer and ermmmm something else on it

Hi Scatty - that is very kind of you to offer, I may well take you up on that when I get back. Maybe we can meet up one day at Hobbycraft and go for a coffee!!!!:beer:

Hope the move goes ok for you on Friday.:starmod:

Hiya, do you live in Derbyshire Jem? I'm just down the road in Burton :hello:

For craft shops in Derby, there's a shop called Reams which is in the town centre, on a road called St Pauls Churchyard, It's just off the main street. Theres also Derby Garden Centre at Little Eaton which has a HUGE craft central (you have to get to it through the outdoor plants area), this one has loads of stuff!

If you are ever going throuh Nottingham, there is a Range there which had a huge craft section last time I went. Unfortunately I dont get there very often, still it's probably best for my bank balance :rotfl:

Hi :wave:

I am in Belper.

I will go and have a look at Reams, thank you.

I cannot believe I didn't know that the garden centre did craft stuff! I have been in there a few times, in the shop part with the cafe but don't remember seeing anything, I will go and have a good look now.

I love the Range, thanks for the reminder, not been for ages.

Thanks very much :T
