Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

rainmac

Hey a lovely new thread, thank you Savvy

Blimey, I now have no idea what I read catching up on thread no. 3 so sorry, no individual mentions

I completely forgot to buy some Promarkers last night on the Pollycrafts site, what a numpty

Did a huge supermarket shop this morning so feeling knackered, the trolley was so heavy but DS2 was an angel. He needed a wee towards the end of shopping so I dashed himn off to the loo and then when I got back I couldn't find my trolley, I thought I'd have to do all the shopping again but then found it, I'm sure someone had moved it

Have a good rest of the day everyone and hugs to everyone who needs one/wants one x

Oh no your making the spendy elves head my way!
Although I nipped out the range today, it's only 2 mins up the road! and bought this http://www.craftie-charlie.co.uk/my-mind-s-eye-penny-lane-12-x12-specialty-glitter-cardstock-54.html for £12.99
Gonna have to save up and go to the papermil shop, there's 2 in the next city or get OH to drive to Swindon, anyone know if the swindon one is big?

£12.99 that's a brilliant price :T :T :T If anyone finds it online for that price can you please let me know, I love with those papers x

The Wife wanders in, has a look round, there's posh! All shiny & new.

Have I been asleep or was me head in a cake but I can't find funky fairys blogspot? Have they still got their online shop?

Flourgirl, that was a bargain at papermill as their refillable brown boxes of card were £5 last time i was there.

Phew - have a day off and have pages to catch up on and a new thread!

Did anyone order the Tim Holtz TSV yesterday? I had it my basket 3 times (along with cropadile) and removed it each time, so was very good, but am kinda regretting it today. I was going to buy it using the cheque method (so that I could be sure it wasn't an impulse buy!), but am still not 100% how it works:o I'm assuming that if I order and say I'll pay by cheque, if I later decide that actually I don't want it, I can simply cancel the order? Can anyone confirm this as I've read of people doing it, but can't remember where!

The-Wife - those flowers sound great and after yesterdays QVC Tim Holtz extraganza I'm so going to have a go at doing something with script and sepia tones. You've clearly started a trend:D

Rusty - great cards. Love the male card it's brilliant. Thanks for the link.

Chocolate.orange - lovely cards. Really like the Mother's Day card.

Ali B - love your cross stitches, can't believe how quickyl you are making them.

Sunrise 27 - love those fairy cards and box

Tomsmum - sorry your down in the dumps, think it's this never ending Winter. Lovely card on your blog.

Lei - love those candles.

Thriftyscotslass - love the girls on tour card

Saucysecrets - can you send me a link to your blog, please.

Sorry if I've missed anyone, but it has been a marathon trying to catch up!

What does "lignin free" mean? I've always thought it was some kind of typo

It means it hasn't got lignin (a natural component found in wood) in which over time will breakdown and become acidic.
