Good Afternoon,

I am a bit of a lurker on this thread, which is wonderful.

I do have a question - I have seen a template of a card that I would like to change a little to make some cards for chirstmas, but I am finding it difficult to find a "top note die" are these only available in America? Is there an alternative I could look for?

Thank you in advance, Gemma

Hi Gemma, I did not know what a Top Note Die was so googled it and it looks just like the nestabilities and/or creata dies "lable" series have a look and see if they would work for you HTH

Hi all , sorry I have been quiet the last few days since I asked my glue question! Things have been arriving for me slowly but surely this week so this afternoon I made a start and have posted some pics below, I hope no one minds?

Sorry they are all similar in design/theme but I've just been working my way through the bits I have already bought (and now I have a lost as long as my arm of the things I want to buy!). Any constructive criticism is welcome, none are 'complete' yet as I need to add the inserts and some other little bits but I am sure other people may have some suggestions. Here goes.....



This one is for a friends wedding later this month. I am going to thread some silver ribbon through the punched holes and maybe add some rings to it.










A few I think need a little extra but am unsure what (especially the last one). I tried to go with less is more to start with as I can always add bits but can't take them away.

I will do some googling over the weekend to try and get some inspiration

Thanks for the adds folks

JTR - lovely cards

I've done some colouring with my new crayons (letraset flexmarkers) which are so unMSE it's scary RRP is £3.00 per pen. The first attemps are out there in my place in space. I think I may have to have another go and make and animal card - just in case there should be a challenge I could enter it in.......:j

Happy Sunday folks x

rainmac- i think that bring and buy group is trying to keep numbers down so they can keep it a closed group like it was before. people had been moaning that all our friends see and get updates on their wall of the comments and pics of our crafts when they don't want to.

she did say if you get deleted by mistake just ask to re-join

well done on all your sales,looking forward to my owl stamp.

i got some good bargains at the craft fair. Got the new papermania typography stamps that are 342, pack of promarkers for £6 and my best buy was 2 nellie's multi frames dies and a marianne xmas tree die £6 each which was the cheapest in the room. most were £8 but it pays to be cheeky as i said go on do me a deal all 3 for £15 and he said yes :T
