Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

ScattyJan

My first instincts after watching it was NO WAY but im a bit more calmer now - and think our next step would be to take a builder round and see what he says - the overall surveyors report was preety good. There estate agents reckoned they knew nothing about the tv programme - we have halted our solicitor for the time being

Morning! Got a busy couple of days here so am just about managing to read but little time to comment - sorry!

Wifey - I haven't actually looked on this site for christian images but I think this is the one you meant. Sorry got to go out or I'd look properly.

Well done to all losing weight - Lei that's amazing! Can you give us an idea what (if anything!) you can eat for a day at that level of calories?

Thanks! I've been eating:

A small bowl of Crunchy Nut or a single slice of toast with Marmite for breakfast

1 1/2 piece chicken tikka chopped up in a salad (lettuce, sweet corn, cucumber, radish, carrot, low fat colslaw) for lunch

A Weight Watchers microwave meal for dinner (vary between 209 and 360 calories per meal but they have things like pizza, lasagne, shepherd's pie, beef hot pot, ocean pie, chicken tikka masala)

Then maybe an apple as a morning and a banana before the gym!

Made me laugh though as my brother had one of my meals the other day as I wouldnt eat it because it has mushrooms in it and kept complaining how hungry he was afterwards x

Omg how could i forget - my Craft Robo arrived this morning when I only ordered it yesterday! Was really suprised but won't be able to play with it until the weekend x

Scatty - hope you manage to sort the house out. It may not be as big a problem as you think.
Craftyjuju - your cards are lovely and the jewellery is great too. Well done. You have been very organised today getting it all on your blog.
Ali - I know what you mean, too many good offers. I think my OH will regret me ever finding this forum! I have spent more this month that I have in ages!
Hugs to all - don't spend too much!

PS What are stickles used for?

Rainmac- I know I shouldn't have spent anymore really either!!!!! Your wedding card is stunning - I'm trying to make a similar card with my "le chateau" papers - I just can't get it to look right at the minute though - it needs a lot more tweeking!!!!

CraftyJuJu - your challenge card is fabulous - thanks so much for entering! The little ducks are so cute and I love how you've used so many layers. Your birthday card is very pretty too and your charms are gorgeous - I love those purple beads!

Craftygranny - that's quite a stamp collection you've got there - I hope Kaitlyn doesn't take her hand away.

It's all the fault of those sugar nellies and little claire but at least they are calorie free.
