    Blast - glittermum - your card will be late have it sat here waiting to post as well!

    Marg - DD goes to high school this year so would be changing schools anyway although they go back in August in Scotland so not sure we can have everything sorted by then.

    And I forgot to wish everyone I've missed a happy birthday as well :o

    just after I posted earlier my 81 year old mother rang to say she'd had a fall at home during the week - fortunately she hasn't broken anything but has badly bruised her arm - something else to worry about - hey ho :(

    Am off to get everything ready to post tomorrow will post fathers day cards as well - then they might get there on time :D
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Hello everyone. How much would you charge for this invite?

    I have worked out it costs £1.50 to make the card, I can't get the price down any lower due to all the parts, printing costs etc. The person who's asked for it I don't know at all so don't know how much she would be expecting to pay. I've looked online and a lot of handmade wedding invites seem to be charged at £3+ which I thuoght was quite expensive but is it actually reasonable? What do you think? I've never made invitations before and she'd like 80... any advice or opinions i'll be really grateful for :) x

    Hello Everyone

    I wonder if those of you who use one of these, could tell me if it just takes one thickness of tape?

    I don't suppose anyone has one that they no longer use?? ;)

    loriellah - your wedding invite is lovely! was it dificult and time consuming to make? I'm not sure about pricing sorry but looking at it £3 doesn't seem unreasonable to me....maybe someone with more experience in the pricing field will be along soon and will give you better advice! :)

    Well done to our latest winner :T

    Glittermum happy belated birthday for yest :)

    paddingtonpoo - where abouts in Scotland you moving to?

    Ooohhh, thank you so much flying fresian, that's me that is!!! I've been so lucky this week and won two prizes :j

    Padster, how do you feel about moving to Scotland, they talk weird up there you know ;) Lol, only joking of course :p Hope your mum is ok x

    I've had a busy few days - 2 x sports days, football fun day yesterday and a party for DS2 today. I found out on Thursday that I have an interview for the school job on Wednesday - eeekkk - so please keep everything crossed for me :)

    Need to get motivated and get the ironing done and the roast prepared, beef and yorkies today, yum yum :)

    Rainmac Have everything crossed for you

    Padster Congratulations on becoming a granny, where about in Scotland are you moving to? I grew up in Glasgow so think it's not that bad oop north really :D

    Sallyuk Not sure if I have the right thing, it's green :p and says removable pattern coated on the side, do you have a link to the one you want as I don't use the thing I have so can give it to you if it's anything you want

    Glittermum belated happy birthday

    Have finished painting the hall and have started on the glossing, am fed up with it already and have loads to do. Bit annoyed with OH he went to see some family with his brothers yesterday 40 miles away, supposed to be home this morning but they are all out drinking and now isn't answering his phone :mad: so I am going to make a couple of cards instead ;)
