Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

Hassy

Sally Thank you..
Tomsmom CONGRATULATIONS :j :j wow!!!
Thank you for your post .. it is interesting about the ovarian screening... wonder if it has helped at all and what the verdict was as to which way was most effective? :think:
What a shame your appointments couldn't have been passed on..
As for ants.. :eek: they are the pits....

Right I am like you, not getting crafting done, I am now leaving the room and positively not coming on here again until I have accomplished my lonnng list...

I'm glad you've come across others that want to be sick, Sally. It's funny cos the sight of blood on others doesn't bother me but on ME :eek: pass me the kidney bowl. I only faint at seeing James Martin in real life! Just the thought of him (I'm going!!!) THUD!

Hassy

That was short lived.. it would have been very rude not to have answered you Rusty..
I personally like the card, I think it is brill..
As for the house, don't stress about it, people understand your predicament and they will be coming to see you, not the house. I am sure your house is fine, the main thing is to look after yourself, the house can wait until you are better.. I have seen a motto and stick by it.. The sign of an imaculate house is a sign of a wasted life!!!
You have done remarkably well I think considering what you have gone thru... you have organised a party and done other crafting too and sorted out birthday pressies... WOW!! WONDER WOMAN!!! :A

Rusty, I like it especially with the glossy accents on that cute image. Have you got any card candy in the shades you've used? Just a couple top left and bottom right. White ones could represent golf balls.

Hassy

Wifey That's a good idea.. re golf balls..
As for James Martin, he is rather a dish and down to earth toooo!!

Hassy

Right, I am deffo going now, quick before I start reading the thread again.. TTFN

Well done Toms Mum on winning :j:j

Rusty your card looks fab as it is but if you feel it needs something else how about a piece of thin black ribbon with a bow under the image . And don't worry about your housework your visitors should understand that you are in no fit state to be worrying about housework.

Congratulations TomsMom, fabby prize :j

Glad everyone gow their postie bits from me, Choccy your ATC is on it's way now too x

Rusty, STOP stressing about your house, it isn't filthy and you are not up to cleaning so stop stressing and do some crafting instead I love your golf card and how you've used the glossy accents stuff. I think some pearls or card candy in 2 of the corners would look great, maybe 2 a the top in one corner and 2 at the bottom diagonally from the ones at the top. Does that make sense?

Bunbun, hope you're feeling better xxx

Hassy, I placed a lil order with Craftybargains and used the diso!!!! code, thank you. They have some superhero decoupage and I thought it would be perfect for OH's Father's Day card from our monkeys. They also have DoCrafts stuff at reduced prices, not as in a sale but selling slightly cheaper than RRP

TiredMom, silver would count as a colour on the Magical Crafts Challenge x

Juju, glad you are ok, hope the pain goes soon, staying off your feet is probably the best thing you can do x

I am feeling a bit carp today, not sure if it's hayfever or a cold but I feel lousy, my head's all foggy and am being lazy. Should have hoovered and dusted but can't be bothered

Rusty, I like dragonllew's idea of adding a bow to your card x
