Making cards - Ideas (part 5)

dawnteabag

Exciting times at teabag towers - my cleaner started today (don't worry I haven't gone all lah-di-dah! I decided to treat myself to not having to spend one of my weekend mornings cleaning. It's my little luxury [we all know stash is essential - that doesn't count as a luxury]) It seems to have kick-started my mo-jo too - 3 cards this week.

3
CARDS!

and that's not including the one I made at the end of last week. + I've completed a project that has been sat on my desk since about October.

Glitter glue is drying so I'll take pics tomorrow and upload.

Another hot chocolate fan here, mmm like cold chocolate too, well any sort really!

Rainmac - Thanks for Rocky Road recipe, sounds yum!
Marg - Glad to read you enjoyed your girly night out, hope you’ve recovered
Rusty - Congratulations on going global with your samples! Hope your finger heals up soon.
betterlife - glad to hear your little one’s improving, mischief-making always a good sign. Congratulations on your order.
Giggle - hope you get your card-making mojo back. I have no idea what flower pens are?
flourgirl - Eeek - no chocolate since Christmas, how are you surviving? Love your Gorjuss Girl card.
mary-op - Ouch at physic pain but it will all be worth it. Hope you get a clear crafting day tomorrow.
Louby - thanks for heads up on the Poundland storage tubs - just what I need
craftygranny - fantastic news about Carly - well done to all of you
Scatty - thanks for the Mo Manning heads up - off to get it now
dawnteabag - I like it - what a great idea to have more craft time and it’s certainly paying off already with 3 cards done.

My new Marianne die arrived today - this one http://bunnyzoescrafts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=79_96&products_id=2693- and I love it but a bit difficult to get out of the die once it's cut. Have been looking for solutions on the net, one of which is to rub all over the die with wax and then buff it up. Anyone tried this? Think I'll try wiping with tumble dryer sheet first.

Craftygranny my friend calls them Netto dogs. Mind you she likes the bags with the deformed monkey's swinging on them lol (Kipling Bags)

My sister and my brother clubbed together last year to buy me the teeniest tiniest radley bag I ever did see for my birthday last year. And I have a strange affection for those small deformed monkeys.

Padster, I bought my first Bildmalarna recently after seeing them on other's blogs, not had a chance to ink her up yet but I think she is so cute.

My OH has not noticed the new bag yet even though it is hanging at the bottom of the stairs and he has walked past in several times since being home

He sounds like a normal man to me.:D

Just seen in Poundland they have some basic card making kits, pots of 6 glitters, sequins and stick on gems if anyone is crafting on a budget!
