Flourgirl - welcome back - three weeks in the sun - sounds like heaven.
Rainmac - No problem! I got the box envelopes from ebay - I've just checked and the seller's shop is closed until the 8th July . The shop is called "Make A Lasting Impression". The glitter pot sells them too, although she is out of stock of the 6x6 ones:

Has anyone seen any freebie images of a fairy?

They are colouring pages but you can resize them.
Hugs to all,

Welcome home flourgirl, so glad you had a great time xxx
hogshead, have you looked on ebay for ribbon?
Mel, thank you so much for the images and beautiful card. Where did you get the box envelope from? I think I need some.
I have looked but I want a bundle of all different shades or a seller who has various shade to choose from. I will look again once I have more time as I don't think I was thorough enough.
I did happen upon a job lot of grosgrain though so may get that too.0 -
Welcome back Flourgirl Glad to hear that you had a good time and you really had good weather didnt you ? Makes a nice change for UK

Melissa Im not sure if i posted on here. But ive blogged my purple card too
Right must go peel the veg.. I had forgotten to blog a DT card so ive spent this morning sorting it all out and leaving comments for the DT crew. Yes its took a while theres a few of us
I will be back later.. Hope everyone is having sunshine xxfurrypig says:my name is Choccy and I am addicted to nose free stamps as I want to save them all and give them noses!!!:rotfl:
About me. Im Choccy or Chocolate orange depending on where i am.Yes occasionally i am a total looon who spends too long online,but no where near as much £ as her spendy elves do ..:D0 -
Poo! I've just lost a mega post so this my be briefer please forgive me if I miss anything.
Hogshead - Have you tried Crafty Ribbons? They sometimes have bargain bags - I think I saw a 3mm one recently.
Bunbun - Sorry you've not been well hope you feel better soon. Cutting out dairy is tough as it's not as simple as milk & cream is it? Is it to help with the migraines? I had missed you on here but not quite got the point of issuing an APB!
Lizalloareds - 'fraid so. Blogging is much easier once you've set one up and it's no way as hard as you might think & you can always shout for help on here.
Thanks for the fairy link Thrifty.0 -
Hiya ladies, can anyone join in these challenges? I blogged a card yesterday that would fit the 'purple' challenge!
xx So much for 'Money Saving'

Afternoon - Hope people are getting some sun somewhere in the UK!!! It's overcast and drizzling here!! It's quite warm though.
Just been to the Range and had a lovely little shop - got some fimo, so 6 x 6 paper pads, some reduced silhouette fairy stamps and some shrink art plastic that looks interesting!!!!
Gemm - the fimo is cheaper at the Range than it is on ebay @ £1.79 each. The packs of different colours are also very cheap.
Flourgirl - nice to see you back and glad to hear you have had a lovely sunny holiday!!
Right - I'm off to glaze some iced buns and bake them - Fimo ones again!!The E-mail of the species is more deadly than the mail.0 -
Forgot to post earlier have blogged my purple card0
