    Hi Everyone how are you all?
    Just looking for some useful tips if possible please! I'm going to do my first stall at a local summer fair and I just wondered if you have any tips about how I should display my cards? I don't have any money so can't afford to buy a stand to display them or get signs made. I'm thinking of making some bunting out of some of the papers I have to make the stall look inviting. Any other tips or advice as I am feeling like a novice!!x

    Rusty I know a few who have had gastric band and it still only works if you eat sensibly. My sisters friend who was a girl I knew from school opted for a gastric bypass and died :( I think its early days yet for your numbness to wear off and hopefully it will. Mine never came back on my stomach and the pulling is still there 15years later. my stomach is sooo mishappen I will never be able to wear a bikini:rotfl:not that they make them in my size anyway :rotfl:

    Been shopping this morning after giving myself a kick up the bum I am back on my diet!! No excuses, just been troffin anythin :mad:

    Rusty thanks for the offer of the wedding squares but I bought one of the new sheets l;ast week xx

    Rusty, I think you should be checked over to make sure everything is as it should be. I would imagine it takes ages for the nerve damage to repair itself but as you know I am not a doctor so what do I know! So sorry you have an abscess, are you on anti-biotics? The LOTV square flourgirl used was from me but you originally sent it to me so you need credit for the card :A. Flourgirl was looking for a LOTV wedding image at short notice and that's all I had to offer as I haven't got any of the wedding stamps ;) And by the way you CAN make female cards, I have some in my house to prove it and you have loads on your blog that prove it too :D
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    I've had a lil glance at those sheets, are they the same quality of card as the squares? May NEED to get some...;)

    It's my mum's birthday next week and I have had a complete blank for her card, need to have a play when I have more time and hopefully something will come together.

    I couldn't remember if I sent any out or not :rotfl: do you want more sending lol .... I am on antibiotics now, dentist was at 2 ... its not hurting much yet! :rotfl:

    As for pink stash, stop ganging up on me :rotfl: do you not think it is bad enough that I nearly cried when I took my GC out of the box, Even Tom was gutted and the response was ... but it is pink? I thought it was a red raspberry type colour!

    more new stash arrived today ... the new MME pads ... all 4 as I couldnt decide :rotfl:

    Glad to hear your pain had gone Rusty LOL at the pinkness of it all though - I know exactly what you mean. OH has got it in his head because I once owned a baby pink sweatshirt (long story short I bought it at a festival when I was slightly tipsy ;) ) that pink is my favourite colour :eek: I know it's a shade of red but it's not red!!

    I've been looking up storage and cheap (er) crafty storage ideas lol. I don't have that much space in the spare room because it has to have a double bed in it and its not the biggest of rooms but I do have a craft desk which was once a computer desk lol and some storage. I want to store my nesties and ribbons visibly because if I put things in boxes and can't actually see them my ridiculous memory makes me forget they exist....so......I am now going looking for a wall hanging kitchen roll holder preferably with a shelf attach at top lol and magnetic sheet or strips I can put on something and nail to the wall. In all honestly I need a house with a lovely garden and a CRAFT ROOM! but that ain't gonna happen this year so I'm doing it my own way. OH will come home one day and it will just have happened. Thats the plan anyway. :D

    I know I don't really know any of you here but its just nice n cozy. U all make me laugh too. :j Hope everyones had a good day despite the rain
