Pointofnoreturn.....stunning card!! I love the butterflies too!!!!!!!.....methinks i got mine from the same person as you!!!

Lol - u might well of done!!!! I pressed mine onto distress ink to make abit of a pattern on them, then dusted with glitter glue!!!

wanna-b-rich

Finally had a chance to read through properly. Need some advice - I've just got some red rubber unmounted stamps with the mounting foam - what do I do with them??? Are they like my clear stamps, can be mounted temporarily on a block and then stored flat in an file? Or do they have remain on a block? Sorry to be so thick, but it's completely thrown me.

Rusty - poor you, hope the CP can sort you out. You certainly seem to be going thru things atm. hugs x

Choccie - what a lovely lady you are.

Mumoffour - lovely pamper cakes, you've inspired me to have a go to use up some of my Boots & Tesco toiletries stash. I'll post on here when I spot silly priced items in Boots (got S&G body mitts the other day for 64p and S&G Clean on Me £1) they might be in your Boots, but always ask for a price check as 9/10 things are reduced nationwide they just don't update the SEL's.

Peppop, Hassy & Thrifty - love the Promarker storage idea, but I'd also read somewhere that they should be stored flat. That said when they sell them in the shops they are in hanging packs, so not flat there so who knows. I keep my PM's in the cases they come in. I have little circle stickers that I colour in and put above each of the pens. I keep my loose ones in a clear A4 letter file. Mind you I don't have that many pens!

Tiredmom - you have a PM

Sorry if I've missed anyone out.

Have been blog hopping and left comments on my travels.

Does anyone have some good storage ideas for Promarkers ???

.

How about this? Just wish I had that many Promarkers.

Rusty -I am so pleased someone is possibly going to be able to help you in the very near future. I wish my Chiro only charged £27 let alone £5, she fleeces me for £35 for a 25 min visit every month and OH every other month!

Back to packing....

LOL - I think I either make sure the nozzle is hardly open or use a wet cotton bud though you need to make sure that the fibres don't come off with the glittler!!!

Right guys I'm unplugging myself, sounds terminal or like something out of the Matrix. I'm actually going to take the laptop with me as I bought a dongle (had to be named by a man) last year and to start with I could get hit and miss internet on the site. Once a large caravan came on the pitch next to us though I couldn't get anything. This year we have a smaller caravan next to us so I am going to see if we can get any glimmer.

Have good weekends everyone with hopefully loads of sunshine and very little pain.
