Tired Mom I'm pleased you liked everything and what brilliant cards you've made.
RAKS from CP have all been posted today but I'm still waiting to hear from Myz, rainmac and Alison, still got three punches already to go.
Another full day at work tomorrow, out at 6 ungodly hour o'clock with the dog this morning, I wonder how many will turn up? One badgered me for the pay rate, I waited to hear if he only got out of bed for a certain amount.
My craft space is coming along nicely, Robby Robo is now almost next to the computer, just got to find the leads and disks and I'll be away. Was it a bit daunting at first, flourgirl?
craftygranny you should have asked me a couple of weeks ago when I was hyper on the steroids.:whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:0 -
Lovely cards by Mr s. and the others too. Thats a nice font you have for your lettering, is it a cuttlebug one?
Well done, JHB! :j just popped in for a quick peak at pollycraft, I love those fairies. Ha! Ha! I've just spotted Bailey Baking Cupcakes, gosh, a stamp named after li'l me!:whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:0 -

Perhaps something to consider after Easter, Princes Party for DD is next project!RustyFlange wrote: »Sh3ri3 - My best crafting tool would have to be my robo but before I had that it was my cuttlebug!! I do still use my bug but not very often now!
TiredMom - Hope your visit to the chiropractors went ok. I keep thinking about phoning one and asking if it would be a good idea for me? or if there is anything at all they could do for me, they are quite expensive though aren't they?
Tiredmom - Beautiful cards, can you tell me what the paper is on the bottom pink one? (has birds on it?)
Out of interest I know a cuttlebug can emboss as well, can a robo do that?
Chiropractors are pretty expensive but my quality of life would be pretty pants without one. It does have rather an effect on spends for luxuries like crafting unfortunately. I pay £38 for just unde 30 mins but she is worth her weight in gold. If you are interested PM me your address and I can find out about a McTimoney Chiropractor in your area for you. You can always give them a ring and see what they say, teh first appointment tends to be more because of the time taking history etc.
I can't tell you what the paper is I'm afraid as the lovely Jennie (The-Wife) sent it to me. I would love to know what it is though as I want some more so any info The Wife would be appreciated........
Rusty I'll PM you re craftworks0 -

Thanks wifey - I got it completely wrong though! Don't know why I thought it was Pollycraft - it's Custom Crops!some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it0 -
I don't know if you girls remember I went to a card making session with the beautiful Steph and one of the generous gifts she gave everyone was a pack of DCWV papers and the birdy one was part of that. I've got no idea what set they are from. She's got lots of DCWV papers on her blog right now.:whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:0

Tired Mom The Craft Robo is a cutting machine that attaches to your computer and doesn't have any pressure plates/rollers to emboss with. It's the machines like the Bigshot, Cuttlebug and the Wizard that will emboss for you. Most dies will go through these machines with the help of an extra plate or shim/piece of card. If you pop over to my blog and look down the right hand side and click on the link to Ikkie's Cuttlebug Cupboard. There's a mine of info about the bug and using all types of dies. I can't rate her highly enough.
Rusty, I second Tired Mom about a chiropractor, I'm with an osteopath for my back and his fees are the same for half an hour.:whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:0 -

Rusty i don't live in a mansion it's not even a very big house we have 3 bedrooms and what's now my craftroom used to be used as a bedroom. We were a very close family :rotfl:we had to be . We used to live in thornhill and when my eldest answered the phone he always used to say thornhill childrens home until the day the caller was a social worker and she told him she was ringing to see if we had room for any more pmsl.
