Just a quick heads up for anyone who hasn't already been and bought - Simply Cards & Papercraft have Molly Blooms Stamps as the freebie this month and one of the other mags has a freebie paperpack (??knightly). I swore I wasn't going to buy mags anymore, but couldn't resist the stamps!

I subscribed to SC&P when they had the Promarkers offer on and haven't regretted it. They normally have good freebies and this months stamps are lovely. I'll be using one tomorrow for my uncles birthday card

I agree they are - hence me breaking my resolution! I'm going to ink one up once the kids have gone to bed

I can't resist a stamps-related freebie. I bought a mag the other week that had a lovely Daisy & Dandelion birthday stamping set and I love it!

I'm trying to be a good budgeteer this year, but suspect that my annual crafting budget will be b*ggered once I get to the SECC in March

i want to get some of the new country companion items that docrafts have brought out this month. it says on their website that they aren't available to buy on their website, does any one know of any other sites that may sell them? they didn't have any at the range when i went on monday and i don't fancy venturing to the next nearest place in the snow!

That was Papercraft Inspirations. There's a fab freebie decoupage download here as well;)

LOL - the only way to stay within budget is to stay away from this thread and all craft shows - even then it's debatable wether you'd be sucessful:rotfl:

thank you for your good wishes on the birth of our new great neice whose name is Megan. She was born via a c-section as she was a breech baby but apparently she's beautiful as all those new bubbies are.

OH reckons he had c-section on his wallet when he bought the other bright pink bundle. When I turn the handle to get it cutting he warbles "Roll out the barrel"

Rusty, I bought a bowdabra and the littlies at Christmas thought it was fab! They even went down the ribbon box looking for school colours. Mind you I did hide my real silk ribbon from them.

Been thinking about you, Giggle, how did you get on? There's always a Glaswegian kiss from PepPop or a Camberwell one from me if they play up.

i'm still waiting for ideal world to collect the old one! it's being picked up on monday, they then 'decide' whether it's broken and 'decide' if they have any in stock to replace it! i'm not holding my breath. unfortunately i'm trying to work out whether I can get away with spending the £500 if they give me a refund on stash!
