Afternoon everyone, firstly I must apologise for being a bit awol this week (just in case anyones noticed ), havent had a very good week workwise and when I've got home in the evenings I've just wanted to retreat into my shell and havent had the inclination to keep up with posting. I have been reading and looking at blogs though and just wanted to let you all know that your collective creations are all so gorgeous, and that I havent forgotten about you all!

hoping to get back into the spirit of crafting this weekend and will blog some stuff I've made recently too. sorry but I don't think its possible to catch up properly as I'm really behind with my blog commenting so will just start afresh from now if thats alright

hope everyones well, and welcome to the newcomers

I know I'm going to regret this but was it a new one for £50 and where from please? I'm very tempted and not sure that I can wait until my birthday.

I ordered one from Capture the Magic, £50 and no p&p x

Thank you Wifey for your advice, I haven't got a lot of copics & bought them before I knew what I was doing!

Gemma - Sorry you've had a bad week @ work it can be sooo draining can't it? I hope you have a lovely relaxing crafty weekend. ((Hugs))

Well Done! our winner.

Evening everyone

I haven't had a chance to read back but hope to over the next few days.
As some of you know, whilst at my parents in the week I broke a toe which is still rather painful . I can just about walk in flat boots, so still managed to go and watch Mastermind be recorded - it was fabb - I've never been in a tv studio before, so it was really interesting and one of DH's friends was a contestant which made it quite exciting

I tried driving today which really hurt though, so won't be trying that again for a few days :eek:

Until I managge to catch up properly I'll just say Hugs to those in need of one, and congratulations to anyone who deserves one

Thanks Rainmac.

Happy Birthday in advance for everyone this coming week.

Mel, thank you for all the links :-) Quick question from me aka the Nestie virgin, if I am looking at scallop circles large, do I need plain circles small or large??? I'm confused x

THE-WIFE_3

rainmac it depends, it's the slight difference in the sizes. If you're not sure let me know what you fancy buying in the scallops etc and I'll pop some in the post for you to play with.

Check out ikki's blog as what ever can be done with a Bug, the Big Shot will cope with. All nesties come with the 'sandwich' layers printed on the package or you will find the info at the Spellbinders website. I'm sure that on ikki's blog you will be able to see what goes with what, the Classic Large can be used with the Classic Small etc. and I'm sure she has plenty of pictures.

Yep! just checked out ikki, loads of info about nesties etc there, the black and mint green MCFC card on my blog is using classic circles large with scallop classic circles large. (I dont have the circles small) It can get confusing even for a nesties old-girl like me.
