    Like bananagirl85 I love reading this thread,I don't contribute often but I enjoy all tips and links and the obvious friendship shared.
    My latest "favourite"is digi stamping and promarkers, and for someone starting out I got the bug watching demos on QVC (Tues pm 2-4 ).I still watch for ideas and have been known to watch a clip on youtube over and over to get the hand of e.g a slider card :)
    Just one word of warning bananagirl85 it's addictive I started with a box and now it's 2 filing cabinets several boxes......;)

    I made a card!!!!
    It's upstairs now drying so I'll take a piccie later but I had to tell you all straight away - I've felt like a fraud dropping in to read every day having not actually made a card since early December - and those were Christmas ones!
    Need to pull my finger out as I have another card to make this weekend too.

    Keep up the good work girls - you're inspirational.

    You can always come and chat you know that, looking forward to seeing your card xxx

    Giggle, have a look on ebay or Wild Orchid Crafts has them too. There are other places too, hopefully someone else will be along with some others.

    Whoops! the 'thanks' button has disappeared. :( Whoops it's back! :D

    Thank you girls for all the supportive comments on my cards – it has meant a lot to me when I’ve been feeling a bit down. What fab cyber friends you all are. Had a good day as my OH took 2 cards in the end to his work colleagues and they were both bought for £2.00 each.

    Managed to read back on a bit of the thread

    Rainmac – hope you are feeling better soon.

    Congratulations to our latest winner.

    Marg – i’ll try and get a card made for your challenge at the weekend. When does it finish?

    Flourgirl – sorry about your shopping trip being cut short. At least you’ll get another day out to get your bits.

    Rusty – glad you managed to sort things out with the school. Good luck going back tomorrow on the other issue

    KMS26 – congratulations on cracking the potty training – it makes life so much easier when they are out of nappies.

    Welcome to all the newbies – this thread is fab and you will soon be additced!
    2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.
    It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,000
