    All I can say about the football was what a shower of brown stuff :o I've seen better play when I go watch DS under 11 team :D. OH has Uruguay in the work sweepstake so we're supporting them now :D

    Well and truly fell off the stash diet this morning - pic on my blog - the last 2 miles took me 45 mins as they'd closed the direct route from the motorway :mad: what makes it worse was I could have come off at the junction before and avoided it all. Ah well got there in the end wasn't helped as lots of people obviously didn't know where they were going and were in the wrong lane at the roundabouts :(

    Wandered straight up to the craftwork cards stall - do you have your digital card with you asks me - no didn't bring it says him - ahhhh says me and wanders off to another stall to buy personal impressions word stamps rather than card blanks, oh my words and card candy as I had planned :rotfl::rotfl:

    Not many bargains although couple of big word stamps for 99p - distress stickles were £2.25 but wanted them now :p. It was really hot and sweaty in there and forgot to sharpen my elbows before I went but had to feel sorry for a couple of toddlers strapped into buggies squashed in between peoples knees and unsurprisingly not very happy.
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Not sure if this is the right place to post, but I thought you cardmaking girls would probably know the answer.
    I'm looking to buy some nice 12x12 paper with pattern on both side but I don't know what it's called or where to look.
    I've tried ebay but cant find anything with the search words I've tried so far...any help would be grateful :)

    Forgot to say - had a look at the new seeing spots Cuttlebug folder and it's basically just a larger swiss dots folder so if you have swiss dots don't bother :)

    sounds like you had a great time at the show padster! some people can be so rude through jabbing you in the side to push you out the way lol. have lots of fun with your new stash this week!

    What you are after is double sided cardstock.
    All scrapbook stores sell it so google one for your postcode as there may be something nearby.
    Failing that they all post in pizza boxes to get it to you safely.
    My hobbycraft sells it too, have you tried there?
