    Flourgirl - I've just watched Bev's video and now see how she can command such a price for her cards! -There were some good pointers and amazing that she seems to leave so much white. I'm bemused by how the Prismacolours work or what they are? they certainly add zing. Maybe Lei & Rusty will be able to tell us. I struggle just to colour between the lines! Bev's also using the higher grade copics than I have -that's my excuse & I'm sticking to it.

    Does anyone know when I can get some decent paper for inserts from, i've never done any inserts for my cards but think they look much more professional with them. I did go look at Asda for the HP stuff but there isn't any at my local

    Padster - Thank you for your lovely card and thoughts. I could tell straight away that the image was you :):) too young to be me! Mind you Left to my own devices every day would be a PJ day!

    Viclspence - I just use ordinary copier paper? Now I'm wondering if it's good enough, but bought cards don't have thick paper inserts do they?

    DH has asked me to make some of flourgirl's yummy scones - maybe back later

    No they don't, so do we think that when they do the demos on tv that they are just using ordinary copier paper, cos that'd be easy and I have plenty of that!
