Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

Glittermum

Rusty - sorry to hear your 2 are poorly too. It's so hard to function on so little sleep isn't it!

Rainmac - another stunning card. That's also got to be the most challenges I've seen for 1 card!

I've just blogged some of the results of my playing with the shimmer powders - just got to work out how to get them on a card!

ooh good news daniel can come home they think it's his appendix but it seems to have calmed down. If it starts again he has to go straight back. Happened to my eldest sam at the same age his flared up again a few months later and they took it out.
we've just had a mad hour banging each pan we own with a wooden spoon when carlys not looking to see if she can hear it. she heard all but the smallest . She even heard the doorbell today first time ever.
I was teasing her mum yesterday and she signed something rude when she thought the littlies weren't looking. Oh dear told carly to put her toys away and what did she sign you guessed it. what was it well err kiss my !!! . pmsl and tried to keep a straight face when i told her it was bad . She looked straight at her mummy and told her she was bad . lol.

Will i have a long walk from the car park to the shop if i visit the papermill shop in york. Does anyone know.

rainmac Yep the blue one is lovely (but I'd still prefer a red one - if anyone at Cuttlebug is reading this take a hint!) Just checked your blog and your easel card is lovely. I love the way you blinged the flowers in her hair.

Maybe we should set up an altered cuttlebug business and spray paint to order - between pink, blue, red and purple (glittermum I'm sure we could add some glitter too ) I think we could be onto something :rotfl:

Craftygranny take your scooter to York, I would think there ae some disabled spaces near the entrance, there is plenty of space inside the mall. I think if you go in the South Entrance that is nearest the Papermill shop. It is only a tiny shop!!The floor is sometimes a bit slippy (not wet, just funny surface) Check out the Managers Special. Tell your hubby there is a seat just outside for them to wait...and wait.....and wait.....lol

craftygranny

Flourgirl Thank you so much. He won't get a chance to sit down i don't do carrying so he'll be in there helping me find what i need. oooh i'll have to charge me zoomer up and see if i can take it. Managers special right i'll have a good look. My sister bought me a box full from the liverpool shop one day and it was really good quality and the colours were yummy. But i used it up ages ago and no one has been since .

OOOh he's giving me strange looks now and he just said . remember you are buying from a shop and you don't need to buy all their stock. As if i would lol. Think he knows me too well.

Now to go to the max papercraft show on sunday or not. I will prob spend far too much money, Hubby will be constantly ringing me to see if i am done yet while i am in there and while he is waiting for me and entertaining the kids. I missed the NEC at christmas and i can't make the march one, so yes why not. I hope i get some bargains.

Craftygranny Last week the Managers Special was 4 large boxes of white 300gsm slightly textured card for £10 brilliant value. The linen look card is fab for stamping on.

Thorntons is round the corner, they have a cafe and sell misshapes of choccies for £1,99 BOGOF.

Oooooo I need to go now!!!!
