Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

RustyFlange

Just a quicky, will catch up properly tomorrow ....

You can do watermarks in Microsoft word, and it is free, and if you press for help in the programme it tells you how to do it

Dragonllew - Hope it all goes ok for you tomorrow, and hope your pain eases soon ... wonder if it is because of a drop in temperature as I have been bad since we got back off holiday!!

Choccy - Sending hugs, fingers crossed GP sorts it out for you

will catch up properly tomorrow xxx

CT1972 AND Dragonllew Your card swap and ATC should be with you in morning if they havent got there today.

My postie didn't deliver anything either so will look out for him tomorrow. Hopefully you will get your card from me on Friday or Saturday.

Dragonllew - ((Hugs)) sorry to hear you are suffering with your back - hope you manage to get a decent nights sleep. At least the hospital are looking into your DH's faints and hopefully they may offer a solution so he can drive again. I had a minor stroke a few years ago and part of the investigations involved looking at my heart. Hope all goes well for him. Sorry I've not got your mojo (or mine!)

Choccy - Good to see you here but sorry you are still suffering pain - it's so lowering.

Rainmac - Have a good day tomorrow - sounds like you'll be megga busy with the baking wish I was near enough to test them for you:rotfl:

PONR - Karma Karma Kamelian - Love the idea of a big hat festooned with ribbons.

Sorry can't help with watermarks but agree they look very posh and I'd love to be able to have one.

Evening all

I seem to be spending my life trying to catch up at the moment. Had a super weekend away and we have already booked to go again next year. Relaxing time swimming in the adult only pool, jacuzzi and steam room and as it did nothing but pour with rain the whole time we were there we managed to polish off 24 bottles of wine:eek:. In my defence we were there for 3 nights and there were 10 of us.

I'm not getting any crafting done at the moment as I have too many balls that I am juggling and on top of that OH's asthma has gone haywire and he has ended up on steroids as well as steroid inhaler. I now need to tidy the whole house top to bottom and try and get rid of all dust, I may appear sometime next summer :rotfl:.

Hugs to all those that need them and we seem to have a few at the moment.

I've made three cards tonight!! I will get around to adding them to my bl*g eventually which I have really been neglecting the past week! It's cheered me right up though & I think I might make some more tomorrow. haha
Hope your elbow, shoulder & head are less painful today Wifey! Wishing you lots of fun at Euro Disney.
kms well done on losing 3lbs, i don't think you should feel disappointed at all, it's a good start. Thanks for the links to the freebies
Rusty I agree with you about the wii fit board, if I take mine up to my parents house I weigh about half a stone more than I do at my house! Think it depends what surface it is on, how you stand etc.
Sorry to hear you are in so much pain Choccy, sending hugs your way
Dragonllew sending you hugs too. Hope your back pain eases soon & that your OH's appointment goes well tomorrow
Thanks to everyone who has given advice on watermarks, I will have to give it a go when I have a bit more time to play around
Hello to everyone else, hope I haven't forgotten anything important! I really must go to bed now or I'll never get up for work in the morning. x x x

Just had a go at a watermark in Picassa and that works too and its free to download. You can also add photos straight to your blog from there.

Bit annoyed at the moment - I'm in hospital at the moment as I had my gall bladder taken out today. I brought some stamped images and pens with me to give me something to do and they have only gone and put the IV in my left hand. Being a leftie this means I can't colour.:eek:

Hopefully I will be released back into the wild tomorrow though and can have some fun crafting as I recover! Going to catch up on the blogs now, hope everyone had a fab day today. Xxx

Ok try again I posted but it didn't show up lol

That must be it then, as mine is always in same place so maybe I always stand in same way or something (which is far to the right according to Wii Fit and Must Do Better lol...)

I guess that's the only Good Thing about being stuck in the house so much hehe...routine
