Agatha Misty Glad your Promarkers arrived safely - be warned they are addictive - although at the moment I'm lusting over the Aqua ones

Hi,

just a quickie from me before i go and get my monsters from school

I lost 1.5lb last night :j

Can't remember what i have read so hugs to anyone who needs them and welcome back oldies you have been missed!

Can anyone tell me what size card i need to make and A4 box? with a depth of a couple of inches!

Also pardon my stupidness but what size card do i need to make an A4 card, one that i will score myself? I always buy my mum and dad A4 cards for christmas and birthdays and obviously i will be making them myself this time round :rotfl:

Well done on yet more weightloss :j

You need to score a flat piece of A3 card to make an A4 card and I would use A3 card to make the box, you'll need 2 sheets for the box but will have quite a bit leftover

Hey Rusty, I've missed you too and am also waaayyyy behind with blogs

I know this isn't a card but take a look at this - isn't it amazing.

What can you say but....Wow! Fantastic painting. I do a nice line in matchstick men

kms dont forget to measure your card at least a couple of times and score your box card a centimetre or two bigger so that it will fit in. Bazzill do some sturdy card for boxes.

Well saw the little one yesterday, 4lb 3 0z cannot believe how little and delicate she is, was very nervous holding her but she seems to be doing okay. Not like my nephew 3 months old and 15lb 80z , we have always been big babies on my side of the family.

Been shopping today got some bits and pieces for crafting, must stop shopping and actually start making some things, the days just seem to be flying by.

Lovely - so glad it's all worked out well and that you were able to go and see the baby.

Woooohhhoooooo my promarkers have arrived - quick considering I only ordered on Sunday x

I have a few duplicates to pop in the post and they are ones that you don't already have!!!

TomsMom - Sending you huge hugs, so sorry you are having such a carp time at the moment. Hoping that things start to look up for you soon xxx

I've spent the day making peg magnets! Fed up of the sight of them now!!! Will sit and make a few button rings now whilst thinking of the label I want to make for the pegs!!!

Hope everyone else is ok. Well done kms on losing more weight.:T

Welcome back Thrifty – we missed you but hope that everything is OK with you and family.
Rusty – hope you are felling better soon, and all your hospital appointments go well.
TomsMom – what can I say – thinking of you and your family.
Well done on another fab weightloss KMS.
Craftygranny – thinking about you and your family too hope all the tests for your boys go well.
MadFrog – glad you have seen your grand daughter she is gorgeous, and looks very delicate. Hope things work out for her parents.
My back is a bit better today, but still no crafting. My friend who runs the toddler group, who I sold loads of cards through last month, was caught by one of the other mums on Tuesday and asked if I was making any cards to sell again. This lady had bought 6 of my cards last month, and everyone who she has given them too has loved them. She now wants another 10 and will give me £20 for them, so I am a very happy bunny, and will need to make a start on them at the weekend.

TomsMom really hope things get better soon for you and your family

Rusty and Choccy hugs to you too

Not got any crafting done today, been at work and then spent a couple of hours at my brothers playing with my gorgeous chunky nephew, 14 weeks ols and already 3 - 6 month old clothes are a bit 'tight' on him gosh one baby extreme to another.

Have spent tonight going through holidays, we were all set to book a holiday for xmas when OH decided it was too busy for him, so we are now none the wiser :mad: guess who will be the one over the next few days researching destinations! Oh and it's all too stressfull for him as he is now on C O D and apparently me being on line is making it worse:cool:

catch up properly tomorrow
