    Looking for some advice, what weight card do you all use? I'm looking to make an invitation for a wedding similar to these (www . pureinvitation.co.uk/product/layered_square_organza_kit/764/0/) and wondered what you would all recommend since I am a complete novice!

    Many thanks in your advice in advance!:)

    Hi all
    Question for Marg if you're around--what is the craft shop at Marsh mill like, do you know ? I'm at RPH with Dad tomorrow and wondered if it's worth visiting while he's having his treatment. Thanks x

    Rainmac - hope today has gone well xx

    Skiergirl - just got in & seen your message! Will pm you once I've got dinner in the oven.

    Can anyone advise the best (permanent quickest drying) ink to use on acetate? I've got to find something that 'fixes' on polyethylene and I wondered if what works on acetate might work. (the men have the idea of using the ink out of permanent markers) but it seems a messy way of doing it to me.:eek:

    Hi, I have just made my sons wedding invites and I bought my card from here I used 300gsm and it was brilliant. You can't buy from a website but you can ring them and order, they are very helpful. I got mine at a craft show they were at. These are the ones I have made, here and here. I can recommend a ribbon site and diamante buckle site if you want to pm me. HTH
