The pins are perfect thank you.

The flowers are alot like this but i was thinking about maybe paper flowers as they are flatter, think i will speak to her tomorrow and see what she thinks. Thanks ladies!

Which pins are the type you wanted?

And how do people do the link to a site without the whole website addy showing?

Giggle - I didn't have a candy buffet as such, but a pick and mix table that had various glass vases from IKEA on that had different sweets in, all my favourites = bonbons; cola cubes; roses; cola bottles, haribos, jelly babies etc, there were about 20 vases and so people could pick and mix and put their selections in some pink stripy paper bags. I got all the sweets from Makro. Not sure if I have photos, but will have a look if you like?

That sounds just like the same thing as im going to do for a friends wedding if you do have any photos that would be great

Am I right in thinking that I won't need nesties then if I have these?

The ones you have won are not as big as some of the nesties that you can buy so if you want to cut out bigger shapes you may still want to get some nesties as well

Happy New Year everyone

Many congrats OAP, gorgeous boy :j. My brother and his partner are expecting their first bundle soon, due date is friday but as we all know, babies rarely make an appearance on their due date

Big congratulations to Willow, such a beautiful card

So sorry to hear you are so poorly Tomsmom, hope you feel much better very soon. Good news to hear your OH has finished his treatment xxx

Welcome back Soma, salesadmin, Lyndach and anyone I've missed :beer:

I am supposed to be getting on with the ironing so I best go do it DS1 is back to school tomorrow and the DS2 goes back to preschool on Thursday. I am so looking forward to a day of peace & quiet on Thursday, just me and the cat It's DS2's birthday on Friday and as I mentioned above, the due date of my nephew. DS2 has his party on Saturday. A nice easy one for me, it's at a play centre who provided the invites, will provide the entertainment, the food and the party bags and do all the clearing up afterwards

Take care everyone x

Just a quickie as I'm working so you'll have to google for links sorry.

Pins and flowers - try crafty emmas store or nutcrafters (yes it was me with I am Roses)

Well done Fresian on your bargain - you will probably need nesties as well as those dies are only about 2 inches square (same size as a sizzlit) - the stars I use on my cards sometimes are the 2nd largest ones.

Soma

afternoon
well done to our latest winner
Freesian I meant that they could be an alternative to nesties depending on what you wanted them for. What did you intend to do with them? I use my nesties for matting and layering so I do need the larger sizes.
