Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

bunbun2

wanna b rich touch wood my migraines seem to have gone. I went to the osteopath so maybe that's why or it could be the cooler weather. I hate not knowing why or when they will reappear:(

ooh vinyl for the robo sounds intriguing! that reminds me does anyone know the best (and cheapest!) place to buy a mat for the robo? Mine stinks of smoke:( I am not too impressed that it wasn't mentioned before I bought it:mad:

I know crafts U love sell them but not sure if they are cheapest, I think flourgirl may be able to tell you the best place to get one from?

I had to re-sticky my mat the other day with a can of repositionable glue spray as the card kept moving around when it was cutting, I ended up with some very odd looking shapes I can tell you :rotfl:

Hi Everyone,

Gemma. I placed an order with craftsu love on Friday, another robo blade, some stamps and an big ball thing to puff out flowers, you can rub a baby wipe over the mat and that helps make it sticky again, I do love the robo just need to find more templates now,

Rainmac, a big shot is why I started card making, Grandad gave it to me and and it was sat in the cupboard, so I got it out I cannot believe he will have been gone a year next friday time sure does fly,

Liza good luck with the craft-ed sounds very interesting

Hi The Wife, Padster, Marg, Rusty, and everyone else,

I have had a lovely day, Andy took the children to a indoor park this morning and then took Alex swimming this afternoon, Samara had a birthday party and I was home alone most of the day, I have managed to make 4 cards, Crafty Juju I posted your card today sorry it will be late, We are off for a night down in cornwall tomorrow with our friends and will be back on Monday, it should be a couple days of manic fun, we have not attempted an overnighter with all the children before
have lovely bank holidays Jo x

Gemm, what about we do a search on crafts u love for one of them! It sounds intriguing

I'm on there at the moment! Nope! Can't see it.

Rainmac - http://spellbinderspaperarts.com/big-scalloped-circles-lg.html

This link takes you to the spellbinders site and for each type they tell what's compatable with what - I found myself counting scallops to make sure! and I found the lady (Liz?) who sells on ebay recommended by Ikki was helpful too.

Jowri - have fun in Cornwall!

Rusty - hope all goes well tomorrow.

Bunbun - glad to hear you are feeling better.

Skiergirl - Ouch! What were you doing? Hope it feels better soon x

Off to see if I can find something to buy from the post free places.
