    Hi Glittermum

    Thanks for that - I just thought I could make them myself instead of buying them already made, but it seems it's not possible or as easy as I thought with pocketfolds.

    Much appreciated.

    Sally - PDA Card and Craft have loads of pocket fold cards. Most of the ones I've seen don't actually print on the pocketfold but mat on top or have an insert(thought that was the idea lol)

    Glad bloggers back up again - just posted something some of you may be interested in - especially if you like ribbon!

    Hi everyone - I thought I'd grab the chance when I can and pop on and say "hello". The two little ones are asleep and the two older ones are staying at their Nan's house for the night! I haven't been up to much - we've all had colds this week - thankfully I think we're all over them now! The health visitor paid us a visit yesterday - Matilda weighs 10lb 3ozs so she's putting on weight nicely, she's losing her hair at the minute so she's got little bald patches, she's such a little darling though and is still sleeping well through the night.

    I haven't done much crafting - although I started a card today and used my new Cheery Lynn die - I'm really impressed with it - the doilies are really delicate, I think I'll be buying some more. I also treated myself to a new MME pad - the papers are really pretty but I think they're quite expensive when you only get 24 sheets, I also got one of the first edition pads - they're fab - you get 64 sheets in those and some of them are glittery, I think I'm going to pre-order some of the new ones from Crafty Emma's Store while she's got a discount offer on them.

    I hope everyone is okay - congrats to all our winners and hugs to those that are sick, I'll try and keep up to date on here but I'm finding it really difficult at the minute.

    Marg - I tried to sign the petition but my laptop wouldn't let me - I clicked to allow pop ups but it still wouldn't work - I can't believe they put the rent up that much!!!

    ZLS1984 - I hope your Nan gets better soon. I also hope you manage to do something about the road by your daughter's school - it must be really scary for you walking there every day. My son's school is by a busy road and I can't believe how ignorant some of the motorists are there - you'd think they'd be more careful knowing that a school is nearby. We used to live in a really rough area too - Toxteth in Liverpool - made famous by a huge riot!!!

    Ali.B - hope you have a fab holiday!!!

    Rainmac - I love the apprentice - do you watch the follow up show on BBC2 - I think its funnier than the main show - the early episodes are always the best because all the prats are in them before they get kicked out.

    Rusty - no wonder you were frightened - lucky you were in the room when it happened!

    Bet you are inking them up as I type, have fun with them ;)

    Mel, sounds like your new addition has fitted right in with the family, so lovely to hear x

    Been to watch DS1 play in a football friendly today and then did some food shopping. Got so much to do at home but can't be bothered today :o Helped out at a pamper night at DS1's school last night, it was a good night (got my eyebrows shaped and had a shoulder massage while I was there too :)). Off to see a friend tomorrow who I haven't seen in a long time so going to find a nice coffee shop and catch up as we are going to have no kiddies in tow :j (ooohhh I do love my boys but a break is lovely ;)).

    Seems Blogger is playing ball again but it lost my updates to a post I had scheduled for today - grrr :(

    My job is not going well, my timesheet for last month has been rejected as I apparently took too long to complete some of the work, grrr again :mad: Can see us parting company quite soon... Have just applied for an application pack for a teaching assistant job starting in September. I know this kind of job is hugely sort after by people like me with lil kiddies but it's worth a crack I think if only for the interview practice ;)
    I'm not around much tomorrow so just wanted to say a BIG happy birthday to Artydoll, hope you have a lovely day x

    My husband's account has been suspended after the first month! He is going to get paid though.
