  • CT - that kitchen organiser is fantastic. What is DTS that you keep referring to? Well done to flying_fresian and *** for their wins. We are such a bunch of winners!!!! Put another few cards on my blog last night. Rainmac - hopefully your mum will feel better mentally in time once she gets over the shock of the diagnosis.

    hugs to all x
    Hmmm will add up debt and stick on on later!

    Curly07 - welcome back - I'm glad to hear you had a good time!

    Dragonllew - Elliot would eat all the time if he could too - the problem is the food that he does want to eat - crisps and biscuits - he won't touch his "proper" food!!!

    Craftfairies - I've been having a nose at your blog and there's some gorgeous creations on there!!! I love the glass etching - it looks so effective, and your butterfly cards are gorgeous - love your wedding book too!!!!

    Louby-Lou-Lou - your hamper looks fantastic - I hope you manage to raise loads of money for such a great cause!

    KMS - congrats on your fab weight loss!

    Fifi Folle - its great to hear from you!!

    KMS - have sent you an email - sorry for my tardiness. Have finally managed to spend a bit of time with my cricut this evening.

    Rainmac - hope your Mum is back on the mend soon - I think sometimes with medical things the name can be quite scary but when you get more information its easier to deal with iykwim

    Does anyone have the x cut scallop circle. I decided that I need the SU scallop but in the Range today saw that x cut also do one (2" so slightly bigger ) but £5 cheaper. None in stock so couldn't see for sure but hoped one of you might have it & give me an honest opinion, SU or x cut.

    Also at the weekend saw a new shop called British Books (or along those lines). Anyway they had what I can only describe as Papermania grab bags.
    Honey & Hugs papers 6 X 6, 2 sets of stamps (lamb & pig ones) A4 sheet of embellishments (I think or stickers ?) for £4.99/5.99.
    Same but It's a mans world only 1 set stamps
    Again same but Rose Garden only 1 set stamps

    I bought the Rose Garden 6x6 papers for £1.99 as I didn't like the stamps but didn't realise what a bargain they were as today I saw the stamps alone for £3.99 in the Range.
    Had a minor splurge on studio g glitter sets at £1 ea & some DS tape & grid acrylic block, rather good I thought.

    Jellybaby - DST is short for double sided tape - I get through rolls and rolls of the stuff when I am crafting. Good job it is 4 rolls for a pound in Poundland:rotfl:.
    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

    I do have an ATG gun, but can't get on with it :o Not sure what the knack is, but every time I squeeze the trigger and press down on the card, only half the glue comes off the tape and that is all raised and bubbly. Not sure if it is because I am lefthanded, or I am not holding the gun correctly, but it drives me nuts, so I just sits in its box.

    I get really narked though as my OH can make it work perfectly, so it is obviously just me. I've tried to persuade my OH to come and use the ATG for me for all the cards and things I make, but he isn't having any of it :rotfl::rotfl:
