    Hi All :wave:

    I am new here although I have been lurking for a week, you are all soooooo talented and many thanks to you flyingpig for starting the thread and sharing your ideas.

    I made snowman soup, reindeer food, christmas cards last year, but no-where near as good as you have all done, my friend works in Tesco and is getting me the ES mints tomorrow 3.49 BOGOF. I have emailed craft fairy (lisa) as well about the punches but not sure if she is getting my emails? Everything I made last year, I gave away but this year my Daughter is maid of honour in our village christmas fete when the lights get switched on so I am planning on having a stall there.
    I have bag toppers template for snowman soup in the square bags and the cones if anyone wants them emailed to them, just PM me, they look really good and have a little rhyme, also have template for the magic reindeer food. Please remember to use coloured sugar or edible glitter as crafting glitter is not good for the wee birdies :o

    Only thing I need is to get the white pen that helen uses, will need to search for that, and also is there a special punch that will do the curvy bag toppers or is that a fancy machine, I will get one eventually but am starting small as I have not one creative bone in my body but last year when I got started, I loved it, if that makes sense :rotfl:

    I've just created a word document and put the pictures and text on it. I'll happily e-mail it if anyone wants :o

    The prices were all for single cards but were depending on size
    I make cards all year round here and there and sell them for £1.50, but if someone asks me for a special make that is when i charge between £2.50 and £5 depending on the sizes

    aaah I see - sorry was having a blonde moment :o

    I think Flyingpig used a die cutting machine and a set of cutters called Nestibilities. I don't have a die cutting machine (but trust me I WANT one :rotfl:) but am going to cut the labels by hand. I may or may not give them a more fancy shape like the die cutter but it depends on how my practice goes first ;)

    I think Craft fairy mentioned a few pages ago that she had lost all her emails forever in cyber space. Maybe worth just sending another one again.
