Thankyou Melissa for all the links I have bought the Wild Rose Candy and the Polka dots., ordered them yesterday afternoon from The Glitterpot, and this morning 9am the postie was knocking on the door with them!! brilliant service and all for £1 p&p

Thankyou to Rainmac for the link to the freebie stamp, its so cute but I think I will have to give him some eyes he looks a bit spooky without!! lol

Nipping in really wuickly between jobs with a question.

Can anyone remember who made the post it note books with a paperclip bookmark & magnetic peg?
If so please holler, add a link if you can as I can't find it in my faves!!!! (maybe I never put it there in the 1st place duh!)
Also there were other post it note holders that I recall someone posting but will try looking back through the thread once i have more time...If anyone spots a deal on buying more time I will gladly buy at any cost right now!

Thanks lovelys.
Dull miserable rainy day here.

The-Wife - I know they are a great price aren't they?? I don't know whether its worth getting the plain rectangles when I could just cut them out myself!!! I'm a bit of a scrooge!

Melissa, I bought both as for me, I can't cut straight at all and I know that the plain will mat perfectly with the scallop/deckle dies. I just been watching Barbara Grey of Clarity Stamps cutting with a knife and she used the Tim Holtz metal edged ruler. I really have to practice a lot more because I keep blaming it on my paper trimmers.

A card 4 u - have 30% off everything this weekend - their postage is £2.95, but their nesties are now £13.99 each. They do a loyalty point scheme too which is quite good and they have in stock the MME Quite Contrary papers.

Wow! Melissa, they've nearly sold out of their nesties and sadly the one set I wanted.:(
