  • Ooohh thanks I'll go hunt some down!
    I can't wait to have some more embossing folders. They are my new favourite thing! Although I haven't discovered what I can actually make with them yet, I just like embossing the card, lol.

    Thanks everyone re; the tape gun, I've just got the tape gun at £9.44 and three spare rolls for £2.15 and free post. If I manage NOT to tape my hands together I'll let you know how I get on. Do you think it might help keep the 'at on me 'ead on a windy day?

    Wifey do you know if you need an adjuster for the extra wide stuff 19mm I know you do for the narrow 6mm.

    Back again, I have ticked off my ink colours on the chart and I down loaded the promarkers chart and ticked those off too... I feel quite organised... :D
    I am off to look at the colours that were suggested in previous posts..
    Oyster stamps were a really good place to visit when I was down in Kent, although it isn't very big, and thay didn't have much stock because they were going to Harrogate the following day, I was impressed with what they did have...
    I can feel a spend coming on to take advantage of the free p&p.. those naughty elves.. they got me spending at mad about cards on some basic grey stuff and other bargains... :)

    Oops! Just bought another one, Spun Sugar and Wild Honey and a new Emboss pad and that was £3 too.

    Might have to give Oyster Stamps a good lookee as No 1 son lives at Strood.

    Wifey Thank you for your list of colour purchases... I must admit, I am rubbish at counting.. especially when relaying how many things I have bought to OH -I have a bad memory too :D
    I must say, having this chart is quite handy...
    I bought a book from a charity shop yesterday about gift wrapping, and at the back there is a template of a radley dog.. it is quite big though, 3 inches by 2 and a quarter or 7 and half cms by nearly 6.. If anybody wants a template, I will do one and post it on..
