    Ali.B - I use the better quality paper that I'd stamp on (if I could stamp :rotfl:) otherwise the amount of ink makes the 'ordinary' paper too wet & flimsy and doesn't give a good base. Not sure just what weight it is, sorry.

    Welcome Newbies :wave:

    CT - can I please have a copy of your tutorial? (Only got MS Works 1997! so should be interesting to see if I can do it) Although DH has just been looking at cars so I might be due a treat :)

    PONR - not quite mastered the butterflies yet, but not forgotten you.

    Dragonllew - sorry you've been feeling out of sorts, hope you feel better soon.

    Thanks SalesAdmin - I just put it on tonight in the hope that I can stick to the target and raise the money - the more I see it written down, the more I will do it (well that's the plan anyway). OH has just said we need a swear box too 50p a go, and i've just had to put 50p in as I just stubbed my toe on the stairs and it hurts. Other ways I'll get the money is from collecting £2.00 coins, and saving loose change. I am determined to raise the money.

    Good luck! I'm not sure I could do a swear jar though... :D

    I think i got on the mailing list just by going to previous shows. I don't think the ticket is a much value for money for me this time as the 3 shows for 1 price are sewing for pleasure, fashion embroidery & stitch and hobby crafts.

    I prefer going at xmas as i always pick up some xmas gifts in the crafts for xmas fair.

    welcome to all the newbies here is a list of all our blogs.


    Thanks! I think I'm following everyone now! There are some lovely things being made. http://laurenbrookscrafts.blogspot.com/ this is my blog
