Thrifty, heck lady, what a lot of stuff you've crammed into a month. I've missed you . So glad you went to the doctors, hope that black cloud continues to lift xxx

Flourgirl, fab news about your dad and your mum's new glasses. Sending hugs to your OH. It took about 5 days for the anti-biotics to kick in when I had an abcess.

Mary, been thinking of you and Mr Mary, hope everything's ok xxx

Mad Frog, sent you a PM

Flourgirl - that's great news about your Mum and Dad - sorry to hear that your OH isn't any better though!

Thriftyscotslass - I'm so glad to hear that everything is sorted and that things are going well.

Rainmac - your cards are lovely - I love the baby image - the colours are so pretty! Love your cat card too - such lovely papers and your anya card is stunning too! Thanks for the offer for the stamped images - I might take you up on it - or I might be really naughty and buy the stamps!!!!

Rusty - thanks for the offer too!!!! I do like Magnolia stamps but I too think they're expensive - I don't own a single one!!!

Pointofnoreturn - I've always found the service at Creative Craft World to be excellent - however I think she's just moved house or is going to soon, plus I'm sure she's been inundated with orders for promarkers and has found it hard to keep up, so try not to let it put you off - she has some fab discounts!!!!

Plese shout in my direction if you find Nestie ovals on offer. The cheapest I can find them is just over £16 a set. Thank you x

Rainmac - was it the plain ones or the scalloped ones that you were after??? I fancy those next too - then I think I'll move onto labels!!!

Love the Lili of the Valley Dies and the Magnolia stamps. I will try not to be tempted!

My Bigshot arrived today, got the starter pack with it, so managed to try it out. Was a bit shocked about the mark that was left on the cutting mat, but assumed this was normal. So now I need to buy some more dies (I'm sure OH didnt realise that!)

Rainmac - I'm looking for ovals too and squares, so hopefully someone will know where to get some cheap ones. Love the alphabet ones, am very tempted to get some.

Hope everyones ok - hugs to anyone who needs one.

Got some bargains before we got to the hospital -went into Boyes and found some scrapbook paper 12 x 12 for £5,99 -30 sheets..............just right to finish off scrapbook number two-got some alphabets and some little cut out frames from charity shop along with material I'm making specs cases with -everyones having one this year.........stocked up with post it notes -notebooks and glue.........raring to go now...............lol
Didn't log on last night as we were late coming back from hospital then lad we've got decided to stay out all night so I had to report it to police and wait till they came to see me -4am !! Then they were straight in and out............lad came back this morning as usual..................lol I've had a lie in so now recovering.............lol:rotfl:
