    They have some good videos on there too, just seen one for a pop up card and it was so simple to make. Going to have a play with some ideas as soon as I get some some double sided tape.

    I have a few rolls that I am happy to send you? PM me your address and I will pop them in the post tomorrow if you like x

    I'm tempted to join it too but haven't been able to find many others. You have to purchase something to get your members gift but I don't think there is a minimum purchase tho

    Hi all - ***waves***
    sent OH off to bonny Scotland today for the week and friend took pity on my lack of culinary skills and cooked tea for DD & me (puppy dog eyes and a rumbly tumbly worked wonders lol!)

    made several cards last week that are now on my you know what including my one for your challenge card paper scissors

    Hugs to everyone battling the black clouds and balloons to people who's birthday's I've missed. Off to sort some ebay sales and not to spend the money on the new First Edition paper pads :D
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Depression is quite literally the pits isn't it :(, HUGE hugs to everyone :grouphug:. Life is 'sent to try us' as they say but wouldn't it be nice to stop the bus and get off when you feel like taking a breather ;)

    Padster, so glad someone took pity on you, I've been worried that you may waste away without your OH to cook your dinner :p

    Zoe, I have some bits to send you, will get to the PO later in the week x
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    Busy day here and not much prospect of things getting better this week so my scrambled brain will try to remember what I've read - sorry if I miss anyone.

    Welcome back Choccy!

    CPS - card for your challenge is finished & photographed but not yet blobbed - maybe tomorrow.......

    Wifey - Sorry can't help with the punch - hope you are feeling better and that your DH starts to feel happier very soon.

    georgie & twinkle - Hope you start to feel better soon too.

    I think the black cloud of depression is tough not only for the sufferer but for their nearest & dearest but hope that if we on here can help in any way we will.

    Lizalloareds - pm'd you!

    kms - sorry no idea how to do tabs on blobs

    Rusty - sounds like funtimes up your way (not) Hope you are OK.
  • Evening, hope your Monday has gone well. I actually managed to make a card today, well about two thirds done anyway and should finish it tomorrow. I think I’ve managed to catch up with the posts. Big hugs to all those feeling poorly and/or down.

    melissa - great that Tilly is sleeping well and coming along really nicely too - sounds as though you have some nice new stash to play with
    Zoe - Great Father’s Day card - hope your Nan is out of hospital soon and back in charge of Rex
    pennib - love your latest card - your ‘mistakes’ don’t look bad either. Really love the label you’ve made for the back of your quilt.
    rainmac - good luck with the teaching assistant application
    flying_fresian - hope you’re enjoying the new LOTV stamps - have added you to the challenge list
    lorriellah - good luck with the summer fair stall - exciting times!
    twinkle - good move to let your DH into your craft room to help with ideas, LOL.
    Wifey & Choccy - Hello and Yes the challenge is red, white & blue with a circle
    viclspence - love the Tilda cards
    lizalloareds - hope you got a result at Argos
    Georgiegirl - sorry you’re not feeling great at the moment - your paint fusion makes are really lovely
    Rusty - sounds like an eventful time for you
    Padster - have added you to the challenge list.

    Viclspence, Flourgirl & Rusty, thank you for tracking down the ticket punch & die, it was the die I had seen on my travels.

    Rusty,
    sounds like it's all happening where you are.

    I just got my 5th set of First Edition papers today, they are all gorgeous to stroke. :D:D:D

    I was back at work today although I shouldn't have been but we has a good soaking of rain this morning which helped to settle the dust. My knees were giving way when I finally got home, my knuckles were dragging on the floor!
    :whistle: Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CARP, SHE'S UP"! :whistle:
