I can't keep up with this thread
Sorry will try and quote some of you when I have more time. Have 2 parcels waiting for me from the post office. Have just ordered the do crafts magazine and some embossing folders, need to keep those spendy elves at bay now for a bit.

Marg I have blogged my challenge card, no idea if I am too late or not

Off to have a quick look at blogs before OH gets home

marg was it you who was after the hearts embossing folder? have had an e mail from crafts u love and this seems to be reduced. have looked on the website but can't find it but I don't find their website very easy to use!

'Twas me Bunbun. I managed to find it on CraftsULove and at £6.99 it's a good price, but factor in £2.49 for p+p and the fact that I only want the folder then I'm not willing to pay that - call me Scrooge :rotfl: . Not to worry, I can manage without it. Pity it's not on Craftwork Cards at that price as I have a £7.50 voucher!

Just had a quick flick through the new docrafts mag, there are some lovely ranges!! Henbury lane, hampstead & I have fallen in love with the new hawthorn & bramble hedgepigs! (hedgehogs but we call them pigs!) also it says that there is a freebie shopping stamp set with the next issue

The hedgehogs are gorgeous Rusty, even OH said they were nice! I might have to treat myself to those.

I got me jobs done and had a play, made a card which I'll try and blog later. Girlie night tonight so am off to have my cauliflower cheese - the sauce has gone a bit lumpy, I'm out of practice!

Tomsmum - lovely cards

Mel - very pretty card

JHB - sending lots of hugs, hope you feel better soon. Maybe you could try hot lemonade and whisky (medicinal of course )

Gemm and JuJu - well done on your sales :j

Jowri - happy anniversary

Tired Mom - hope you enjoy the class, I couldn't justify the money plus I'm not sure I could sit down for that long 'cos of my back. I will book for the next technique one though

Mumoffour - hope your aunt is better soon

Rusty - what a lovely OH you have

Dragonllew - fab wall hanging and gorgeous basket and cards

Flourgirl - fab cards, especially the pink and brown one

Mad frog - great card

Think I may have to go to the craft shop this weekend to get the do crafts mag

Wow dragonllew your strawberry creations are simply stunning :T
Can I be cheeky and ask you how you made them

Daft question alert :o

If you use both ends of a promarker on one image, is it normal for it to come out 2 different colours ? or am I doing something wrong ? (prob the latter) Thanks

The ones I bought today (over 1000) are for the shop, lol

You're going to make my spendy elves come out to play before they should - they're grounded until the first of May!!

JailhouseBabe I only use honey at an absolute push cos I'm not to keen on it either but in desperation I hve tried golden syrup and it seems to work just the same.

Yay well done :j:j

Don't you just hate it when you lose all your multi-quotes. :mad:

Wifey you made me laugh. It reminded me of when I got a Nintendo 64 with the Super Mario game. My mum used to play it and we always laughed at her cos it looked as if she was trying to kick Mario over all the jumps - she'd end up going to bed early complaining that her arthritis was killing her and couldn't understand cos she'd had a restful day :rotfl:
