Making cards - Ideas for beginners (part 4)

wanna-b-rich

Evening all.

Thanks for all your good wishes - I didn't faint, but have to go back next month to see the consultant to discuss my options, whatever that means?!! Feel a bit sore but nothing some painkillers won't solve.

If you haven't already entered the £40 gift voucher giveaway on my blog, please do so, I'd love someone from here to win. Apologies if you've already seen it and decided not to enter.

Rusty - thanks for getting back to me re the Robo and thanks for the advice re keeping the nesties. I think a robo maybe on the cards in the future, but will have to save my pennies for one as I won't be off-setting the cost now. x

The-Wife -thanks for the info re the embossing powder, I think I'll ring them to complain, I tried the other flavours out and they are all the same, blotchy and no fragrance, maybe it's a dodgy batch. What a tragedy to be allergic to wine - it gives me a headache, but that normally due to me over indulging.

Lei - sorry meant to post yesterday, I have this "scene its" and I love them. I have the Lavinia Silhouettes on my to buy list atm.

Jowri - hope you had a good day

Madfrog - sounds like you're having a bad day! glad you got the link sorted out. Thanks for entering. x

Melissa - hope you feel better soon, summer colds are just pants

Artydoll - you have a PM

Gemm - glad your fair went ok. I have to apologise to you regarding the sunshine award - I didn't do anything with it other than accept as I didn't know who to give it too - sorry.

JuJu - that bracelet is lovely. I've not seen round tiles before - did you bring them in from the US?

BunBun - I've had LOTV stamps in my basket about three times this week and then not checked out - sorry you missed out on the sheet you wanted.

DTB - glad your son is feeling better, hope your headache goes away

Hopefully I've not missed anyone out, apologies if I have.

Well my day has been up and down I guess, more unpleasantness in that the car is playing up again, something to do with the turbo, luckily it is still uner warranty so will try and book it in on Monday. Went to hang washing out and the plastic bascket handle broke, as did a dozen clothes pegs .. the heat maybe??

laptop still not loading internet, not even with the vodaphone dongle I usually use at work ... I am hoping something is down in our area, also the printer wont now turn off :mad: grrr

On a positive note, I am a bit excited because I have tomatoes growing, cucumbers, and 3 courgettes ready to pick

Have decided to start SIL cross stitch tonight, think I will leave all technical things well and truly alone :eek:

Mad-Frog

Oops forgot to say

Gemma well done on your craft fair, I think you are all really brave to sell things

CraftyJuJu I know what you mean, I thought I needed some more black card stock, I now have 15 sheets that I have found

DTB Sorry didn't know your son was sick, hope he is feeling better now, I thought about going to the gym this morning until I stepped outside

Rusty Huge congratulations on your weight loss

Giggle

Back from MIL again. Hopefully we are getting nearer to getting her up to live near us. I managed to get to Hobbycraft and The Range (no Range near me) this time:j Got some promarkers cheap - I will master the art of colouring in :rotfl:

Well done to all winners :T

Can someone tell me how to put a link from another blog onto mine please? I've just entered a competition and can't for the life of me work out how to post the link on my blog Thanks

Marg

Wishfulcomper - I'm not very good at this but I'll try to say how I do it. I have the blog open that I'm posting about & highlight & copy its address, then in my blog post I click on the icon that says 'link' this brings up a box with 2 spaces in it. In the bottom one you paste the address of the blog you want to refer tothat you've just copied and it also appears in the top one. You can then alter the text in the top one to what you want to appear. There is also the chance to test the link which is reassuring.

Think that's as clear as mud - sorry!

Hope things are getting better for your MIL x

we haven't had the high temperatures up here in the north. it has been cloudy and grey all day with a little bit of rain. it's not cold though

You're not north you are south compared to me! we had hot temps here, 26.5 degrees!! is horribly muggy and spent hours in ikea trying to get stuff for DS's room!

Thanks for all the congrats and stuff, havent caught up properly cause we haven't been home long and I need to eat! catch up properly tomorrow night!

Thanks Marg. I've managed to put a 'link' there but it doesn't seem to click through and link I will have to try again.

I want to put it on the other side of the page from my posts, but I can't seem to put a link.
