Thanks to all re help with Blogger, I agree Rainmac definately designed by a man. I'm in no way IT minded but I'm sure it could be far easier than it is. I have eventually got the photos to drag a little at a time and got them in the right place, I may try TomsMoms way next with copying the code I will see how I get on today.

That's why I started to cut and paste , I found I could only drag a little at a time and as I'm a bit errrrr.. wordy [cough!] with my posts (definitely so on my house reno blog!) I found the cut and paste method much quicker .

I too ordered some Promarkers last Friday from Joanna Sheen and have heard nothing since, do you get a dispatch email from them does anyone know?

I made an order to JS on Saturday, same time as I ordered from Angel Crafts. They're usually pretty quick but I think Easter has got in the way. They don't send a despatch email. I'm hoping the postie will bring my order today.

Mumoffour - Welcome aboard!

I have looked at some blogs and one word comes to mind WOW!!!

You are all so talented...cant imagine myself acheiving some of the things you are all doing!!!

Yes you can, just needs time and a bit of patience. Take inspiration from the blogs (shout if you don't know how to find them). I was in the craft desert for a couple of years, came back last December and my style was very "old fashioned". I found this thread and saw what the girls were doing which gave me a push in the right direction.

Your mum's buying it, of course it's worth it!

Sorry, Sweet baby cakes, couldn't resist. I'm not a lot of help as I've never had that mag, I just go for the cheapy Creativity one.

Lol thanks Tired Mom!!

Ok a question for all you ladies and gents??????


What is your Best buy for your hobby?

What is it you cant live without!? (crafting wise)

What is it that you use most?

welcome to the thread!! I just can't resist questions like this!

My best buy would have to be my cuttlebug as I got it on a great offer and for the versatility it gives.

I couldn't live without my atg gun, only had it a few weeks but I am already in love with it!

The thing I use the most would be mirror card for mat and layering!

Thankyou Dragonllew the butterflies arrived 5mins ago ,they're FAB.
It was so kind and generous of you to send them and I hope at some point if not to repay the favour then perhaps to pass it on .
THANKYOU XX:kisses3:

Mumoffour77 - Hiya and welcome to the thread - have fun in our madhouse. Sorry can't help re: Big-Shot - I'm a Cuttlebug Kid!!

OAP - arrgghh, how can there only be 24 hours left for your challenge. Where is my life going :eek:

My washing machine has died a death - a very, loud noisy death. Doesn't it know that no-one's got any clean clothes

Rusty - Ooooh I've found your speshul papers :rotfl:. Just treated myself to two DCWV matstacks - Once Upon ATime and All Dressed Up. Sorry but they are too gorgeous to use, I'm just going to sit and stroke them

Okay - off to harangue washing machine repair man. Take care all.

Morning all, Feeling crappy today so please treat me gently. I had pneumonia and pleuricy about 8 times last year and twice this year so far and I think it is back again. I know I need to get to the doctors but they get really snotty with you (cant have an appointment unless it is an emergency) and DD is still poorly so dont really want to drag her about today. I dont want to end up in hospital again with it though.

Might try and get on later to see what you lot have been up to (a bit of laughter therapy will do me good, dont make me laugh too much though cos it hurts my chest!)

sweet baby cakes - I have personally only had this magazine once and thought it was very good. However as I culd not justify subscribing I have signed up through the tesco vouchers as well (1st copy coming in 4 days!!) I think it will be worth it as you normally get a free gift with each one so it is a good way to get a few items.

Hi mumoffour77

My best buy would be my cuttlebug (specially as OH bought it for me)
Can't live without either my printer as I use a lot of digital stamps and papers or my Scorpal
I use my spellbinders nestabilities and my promarkers most.

Welcome to the most expensive thread in the world ever. :rotfl::rotfl:

On that note has anyone seen any reasonably priced paper packs on their travels? MME DCVW Cosmo Cricket - that type of thing am still proud to be a Basic Grey free zone :D
Alternatively does anyone have any packs they want to split and sell
