***waves***
hope everyone is ok - we were all up at 4am xmas morning feeling rough but only DD was actually sick fortunately - we opened our pressies then all went back to bed until 10. Everyone was well enough to polish off the dinner though :c)

haven't really done a lot and OH went back up to Scotland this morning but his car broke down at Ferrybridge and the last I heard he was at Hamilton 10 hours later spect he'll be at his mother's eventually all i can say is vorsprung durch technik :rotfl::rotfl:

have been thinking about the new challenge theme and have decided on:

It was essential at the time but it's still in the packet!!!!!
obviously it doesn't have to have had a packet but does have to be previously unused and the more items the better :rotfl: :rotfl:

Can anyone recommend to me how to go about selling my cards? I keep making them with no profit -- its annoying my other half now!

The way I read it, you had to use something that you had bought as an "Ooh I have to have that" item of stash but haven't used yet. Those lovely buttons, that unloved stamp.

Correct me if I'm wrong though!

Padster, I have just posted a card on my blob using 2 unused items so can I please enter your challenge with it? Hope you're all feeling completely better in your house x

Hi Kitty Ears, some people sell handmade cards via ebay or through a Facebook shop? Another route is at craft fairs but this will cost money upfront before you make any money iyswim? How about a local shop or florist? Good luck x

Love the new card Rainmac

Can I ask where you got the box from that you sent my card in? I'm going to be aiming to make more complex/bulky cards this year to try and stretch my crafting skills, but need to be able to post them too!:rotfl:

:rotfl:Would make my cards a little busy if I was to use all of my Unused stuff!! :rotfl:I bought myself one of those lovely zip up folders that you put the plastic pockets in and I *ahem* will have to buy another one to fit in all of my clear stamps and dies!!!:rotfl:

However I will have a look through my crafty piles and see what I can come up with

I can't believe I'm back on the birthday card thing I've only just got the last of the glitter out of my ears- that'll teach me to craft with a 10yr old :rotfl:
