    Hassy - I haven't watched C&C for years - I've kept meaning to though ever since Leonie from QVC joined them. I liked some of the banana-frog stamps that I saw yesterday.

    Sorry ladies :o, just dashing in to say I've posted the card swap partners for this month... http://craftyplace.yuku.com/sreply/3702/t/April-Card-Swap-Colour-Theme.html

    Will catch up with the thread and blogs over the weekend. We're hopefully off to Warwick Castle tomorrow :j. Been for my first trip to The Range today - liked it!!! I bought the MME Penny Lane stack, DCWV Linen Closet stack, floral Papermania pad and a few other essential items :p. Spent rather a lot but had lots of fun ;)

    Have a good weekend everyone xxx
    I got all of them too, did you get the Papermania Rose Garden, rainmac
    :whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:

    Ooooh ribbon. Too late tonight to look through but so delish. What lengths are you ordering in as 1m seems too little.

    Managed to obliterate DD laptop tonight trying to burn a reboot disk so we could put to factory settiings. I did something wrong & only 1 chance to burn the disc so I need to send off for a replacement!!!!!

    Big oops. Stay away from the ribbons they have a key to release the spendy elves. I blame it on a) Tomsmom who reckoned that 10% of the saving I made on my husbands van insurance was a fair amount in commission b) 2 glassses of wine 3) no sleep last night 4) 7 huge mugs of coffee today. I appear to have bought 250 yards of ribbon, oops. That said I only have a few pieces and I didn't really know what colours I needed so I got a very good assortment.

    Before they are allowed anymore mischief I am off to bed to hopefully get some sleep. Tomorrow we investigate gems and promarkers.....and off she skips to bed (it was only two glasses honest)...

    That rose garden one is lovely. Can I be really cheeky and ask how much you paid for the MME Penny Lane as I'd like to know how it compares to Boundary.
  • Evening everyone, sorry its late just got back & sorted from work. Tonight I took a collection of little girls bracelets to work because a lady I work with said she'd buy some off me for her daughter :j I made 6 up & took them to show her & she bought them all off me :j Me very happy, just had to share, sos :j I've posted pics on m blog.

    Hope you all have a great weekend :) x

    Thanks :) I charged her £2 for the 4 smaller ones & £2.50 for the 2 larger ones (hello kitty 1 & the one with her name on) For adults I charge £4-£4.50 at the mo. I'm enjoying making them as I love to see the smiles I get from people so I'm happy not to charge too much as long as I'm getting costs back :) When I manage to get round to it I want to try making charm bracelets, but I got to find some time first.

    I've got to get on with making some Wedding card Invites samples this weekend for monday for my friend who asked if I could poss do them for her :)
