Sure i read somewhere that the tan mat is handy if you want to run normal stencils through the bug. too. But is ok for embossing the nesties if you don't want to mess around doing it witha tool so really you both are right . lol.

Thanks for that Crafty Granny - I don't have any stencils as yet, probably why I didn't think of it.

The spendy elves have been following me lately too, and I was supposed to be saving for Hobbycraft at the NEC.

Hiya Gemm, I'm glad you are well.

Mummyslittleboy - ooh, you take care.

I think that the spending elves are definatley here to, Feeling better today I can breath a lot easier today and move easier to just the pain in my shoulder but I have had my appointment through to have a scan on it, so fingers crossed they will find out what is wrong with it.

I am trying to avoid a trip to hobbycraft this wekend but might just have to pop to there later

Soma your halloween card is lovely.

Well I'm feeling very proud for resisting those owl stamps. Maybe after next month's payday...!

I haven't done much today, I'm still really achy and don't really think I'm ready to leave the house, although I really want to get out and about. Maybe tomorrow! Still, it has meant that I have been able to make a couple of cards and enter them into some challenges. I have another one in plan for later on today but I'm getting distracted by the Britain's Next Top Model marathon on LivingTV

Oh my Goodness, I thought I would try have a read through and there is sooo many pages, I went to the first thread and had a quick whizz through and bookmarked some sites and also the second. I think it would take forever to get through them all

I just have a quick question , can anyone recommend a card / crafting magazine. I'm thinking of asking santa for a subscription. I've seen a few try me issues 3 for £3 etc that I thought I could try before I decide which one to ask for
