Making cards - Ideas (part 5)

Quick question, is there anywhere I might be able to find a list of people exhibiting at the SECC next weekend? The website for the event isn't the easiest to find your way around and I want to plan my [strike]spending[/strike] browsing

Did I tell you I live in Glasvegas - I'm gonna stand outside the SECC with a HUGE version of the (DUM! DUM! DUM!) FLOWCHART OF DOOM :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Don't you blooming dare!!!! do that on the Thursday. I have waited all year long for this show and if my (usually good natured) OH see's that sign I am up the creek.

Remember his £££ show is on the Sunday, mine in the following Thursday:eek::eek::eek:

go to www.ichf.co.uk click on hobby craft logo that should take you to a page with all the UK shows. click on SECC and then you should get the who's coming list. ( erm thats how i did it):)

OK I shall shred the Flowchart of Doom (DUM! DUM! DUM!) - I wouldn't really do that to you all - I'm not that nasty. I hope you all have a great time and [STRIKE]spend[/STRIKE] browse loads:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

thanks Peppop I knew you would understand "the needs of the one(crafter) outway the many" can you tell Mr Spock was my hero!!!!

OAP My only answer to that has to be... Live long and prosper (and yep I can do the finger thingy too )

DUM! DUM! DUM! I've put a card on my glop!!! (Liking the DUM! DUM! DUM! in case you hadn't noticed :rotfl::rotfl:)

Cat update... I think we're gonna need to pay the vet a visit - I had a look at the tooth and it looks like it's broke off below the gum and I think she's feeling sorry for herself.

Love the card Peppop, how did you make a light box???? My photos really suffer in the winter light.

Sorry i should have said I can do the fingers thing too AND... I have a nephew who speaks Klingon!!!!!!!

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: at the flowchart of doom - I kept reading it as the flourchart to start off with - just clean me glasses .

Very MSE Martin Mrs Rainmac :beer: Although I wouldn't have bought it - that grungy stuff does nowt for me :rotfl:

I haven't spend anything all evening - good job too as my mother rang and managed to remind me that I haven't paid for DD's PGL weekend - even more month at the end of my money now - am going to bat my eyelashes at OH (to distract him while I snaffle some pennies out of his bank account )

Hope you're ok Rusty - absolutely unforgiveable I have never said anything like that about my ex and his wife (have thought a few nasty things though ) Hey ho I'm only human - we have more trouble from exs new wife as she doesn't understand why we don't hate each other - mainly coz I can't be bothered to waste my time on him any more he's DD & DS's dad end of

I got a cardboard box, cut off the top and the front so I was left with the back, base and two sides. I then covered the insides with brilliant white paper (I stuck it on with double sided tape) - job done. I take the pictures in my kitchen which is the brightest room in my house and it seems to work. All my pictures are taken a night with a flash so it really seems to make a difference.
I have seen it done with white tissue paper as a lid and then you shine a lamp through it.

Oh and padster no it's not stash cos it was pennies to make :rotfl:
