Costcutter - Could you give us an idea of what your invites look like? or are supposed to look like? this may help with how to attach your ribbon.
I also use DST to hide the ribbon behind the paper so to speak. However I use a very strong DST otherwise I find that sometimes the paper starts to pull away where the ribbon is. Dont fork out on a glue gun, it will show through any ribbon and dries hard, so any lumpy bits you will see through.

Sorry don't know how to upload photos but the ribbon is to go around the card, top to bottom, just attached to the card not underneath or over the top of anything! The glue gun is for a wire butterfly being attached to the card. Tried the DST and it seems to be working with the ribbon!

Thank you all for your help xx

Ali, the method of getting bits to stick out is as dragonllew said, it's called Out of the Box, there's a tutorial here x

It's blooming lovely Marg Made spag bol for dinner and even though I never put my pans in the dishwasher it was a real joy to pop all the cutlery, plates etc in there and not have them hanging around the kitchen iykwim. I've missed having one so much, sad but true Good luck with the blood test and make sure you eat & drink something straight after xxx

Got my copy of Papercraft Inspirations today from Asda and apart from the LOTV images there was a stamp set too exclusive to Asda. Worth checking out

FF could you tell me what the stamps look like? then I know wether to go to asda or just one of the local shops

Marg - Good luck with your blood test!

Rainmac - sounds like you are chuffed with your dishwasher, but think how much stash you could have bought :rotfl: ok I will stop now!

I have just blogged a card, seem to spend ages colouring and I dont want to make cards, just colour!
