Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

Glittermum

Good luck for the wait DTB! I don't think I've got anything suitable - of course we know that all SAHM sit on the sofa all day drinking coffee don't we;)

Ju - your latest bracelet is gorgeous -I don't think £8 is enough though!

Tired Mum and SkierGirl - have fun tonight.

Rusty - fab card - can't believe you got 66 Bs!

Marg - glad your eyes are (relatively) OK!

Must say all the politics tonight is actually quite exciting - I though Gordon Brown's farewell was quite moving!

Rainmac - Beautiful card, I am sorry I am giving comments on blogs a miss for a bit as I amm struggling at pc for too long.

I had a quick pucrchase or 2 earlier on in the week, I have 3 of the new basic grey pads, 2 x bild manosa or however you spell it stamps and some charms. I also got my pollycraft stamps which arrived before I went into hospital. I managed to save over £40 on DD's birthday presents on the phone today aswell and then to top off my day I went to opticians to pick up my glasses and complained as they hadn't called me but it was me who had had to chase them up, so the nice bloke knocked £20 off the final price of them aswell :j so a good day all in all. Had physio this evening and she had DD sitting on the base of my back so I could lift up :eek: lets hope this jab works as I am hoping to send OH back to Aberdeen tomorrow.

That physio sounds cruel, putting a child on your back :eek: :eek: :eek: You are a bad influence, I've HAD to order BG Cappella and Basics Manilla

Me too, it was quite sad, if only he could have shown a bit more of that compassion a bit earlier I think the result would be quite different.

Of course they do ;-)

Its for my boss and I've been teasing her about all the spare time she is going to have with her 2 girls at school and her at home.

I'm thinking I should also make her a survival kit but am unsure what to put in it apart from a copy of 'take a break' magazine. All thoughts gratefully received......

ETA: I've just tried to get onto ebay to do feedback for the Tilda images I received today. I'm getting the same message about the website's security certificate as I'm getting for blogger when I go to My Ebay (I can get onto ebay, just can't get through to My Ebay). Can someone else try ebay and blogger and let me know if they're getting on or getting the message. I'm beginning to wonder if something's wrong here, but MSE and other sites I've visited are fine.

Looks like I got Blogger sorted, probably ebay too. We had to unplug the computer and when it was plugged back in I hadn't noticed the time settings had gone back to 1 Jan 2002 :eek: . It probably wasn't compatible with the security certificates on those sites then. I'll see if I can blog my cards now and then go on a blog hop.
