    Bitsy Beans . Fab cards i love them all. Re the inserts you can usually guarantee that if you put inserts in someone will say i don't really like that verse have you got any others . Sometimes i put inserts in but leave them blank. My daughter buys crappy shop cards but always thinks i should put inserts in yet the ones she buys don't have any. not really helping am i . I'll stop waffling now.

    Flourgirl love the magnets they are so jolly looking

    Hollie love the decorations they are fab . No idea what to charge for the chocs i have some. my oh said charge a quid for 6 but in some ways it seems too much and in other ways not enough so i couldn't decide. lol.

    im thinking £1.50 for 6 as ive used all my stickers apart from 4 off the sheet that cost me £1 so i think £1.50 seems fair plus they have took me about 1.5 hrs to do,thats 12 ive made
    singly im going to say 30p each so it works out cheaper for them to buy 6 :)

    Picture quality isnt great, but wanted some opinions. I dont have any of the proper equipment so did them all by the tutorial - I was really pleased with them. Havent done them to sell or anything just to pop in with families christmas presents as a bit of a stocking filler.
    Well when I showed OH when he got home from work he laughed :( think he realised he upset me and told me they were great, but now I'm not sure.
    I normally just make cards, not anything else and I'm thinking I should maybe just stick to that now!
