  • Hassy - hi and welcome to the thread. As far as I know you aren't allowed to post links or pictures until you have submitted a certain amount of posts - I don't think its too many. Don't be scared about setting up a blog - I am useless on computers - they don't like me - but I managed to set one up!!!

    Lyndach - looks like you got a bargain there - I am a big fan of MME papers.

    Rusty - was it all the penny lane papers that you got in the stack - I think a few ranges fall under the heading - I'm not sure I get confused!!! I know QVC sell a few of the MME stacks but I think they're about £20.

    Mel - the penny lane papers are the full pad of 54 papers in 12x12 stack, on the front page it shows a bit of each paper, they are really pretty ;) pic here ;)
    Rusty forgot to tell you postie is on his way with the mice yeuck . Have fun with em.

    Awwww thankyou so much, I can't wait :j ... and yes please can I borrow your scooter :rotfl:

    Tomsmum - sending hugs to you :) got your pm thanks xx

    DTB - it must be a relief to hear that your sister is on her way home. Will you get to see her any time soon?

    My sisters and I are all going to the spa at Center Parcs with my Mum in a couple of weeks - will be nice to have us all back together - my other sister is travelling over for the weekend from Germany. We also have an 18th birthday party to go to in the evening so will spend the daytime detoxing and the evening retoxing before spending a night in the campervan on my uncles drive. Classy!
  • Melissa I love the bella pad aswell ..... I didn't look at the price on that one but tempted to go back and buy one of them aswell!! The penny lane one was £6 cheaper locally than online, so hoping the bella one will be cheaper aswell.

    I could always pick a couple of pads up if anyone wants me to, not sure how many they have in stock as they dont always have them all out on the shelf. only thing is postage would be quite a bit as they are heavy!! unless people are going to the nec!

    Melissa Thank you for your welcome and your encouragement in setting up a blog... watch this space, you never know... :-D
    Self imposed crafty stash ban: started again 22/8/10 1 whole month stash free!
    I must not buy stash, I must not buy stash, I must not buy stash! :o
  • Hassy - there's loads of people on here that can advise you on anything technical if you need help - I'm afraid I'm not much use.

    Rusty - I prefer the penny lane papers to the bella ones - but both are lovely. I did have a search for them online but didn't come up with much. I'm hoping places like quixotic paperie might stock them as she sells the big xmas pad - fingers crossed. I'm still trying to decide which of the new collections to buy - its my birthday in April so I might treat myself to a load then along with the cosmo pads. but then again I haven't spent anything for ages so maybe I deserve a treat!!!!

    Choccy thankyou the stamped images arrived today.

    I've stamped some images for you so will pop them in the post tomorrow! I've still got to sort my stash swap out for furrypig soon too as i've been a bit disorganised...

    On the plus side i'm going to the Make It craft show in Farnborough on Sunday. I wasn't going to bother because of the NEC but Martin is getting is car repaired so i'm taking his Mum (she's after a Craft Robo) x

    Lei -thanks for the info - I've been wanting to try and make some for ages now - yours look so gorgeous - what did you use to colour the images in with - I don't think tissue paper would like my promarkers!!!!

    I actually used colouring pencils but can't remember why now! I think it's because I wanted the finer tip... On the tutorial on the Whiff of Joy blog they've used Copic markers just fine (make sure you put card underneath as I imagine they'd bleed a bit) x
  • Rusty - You know those cards you sent me a while ago? Do you mind telling me where they were from? I'm almost out and I love them...I've been pacing myself and not using the last one, but I'm gonna have to do it, lol!

    I love that pad...I hadn't seen it, but I'm so tempted by it now I have....

    Lei - I'd have thought the copics would've leaked - shows how much I know!!!

    Saucy - their papers are great quality and they match each other really well. I've got a couple of their smaller paper packs - if I had my way I'd get everything.
