Hurray my first card of 2013 :j
It's my first crack at teabag folding and I'm quite pleased with the result.
It's on my Blo* I'd be interested in your comments and any tips as it's something I'll try again

Your teabag folding is so neat and very effective. Is it difficult to do? I will have to add that to the list of things to try.

I hope it was okay just to join in.

xNinax, I just "joined in " a while ago and so glad I did I've learnt such a lot.
The teabag folding is fiddly and time consuming but I'm the most least neat person ever so it can't be that hard:)

Thanks for that macma. I will try to join in more often instead of lurking. I will save the teabag folding for a day when I have the patience for fiddly:rotfl:

soory if this has already been posted but this craft punch is a great price at halfcost only £1 but only 24 in stock - good for card edges http://www.halfcost.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=11&productId=85675&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=10401&categoryId=10411&cache_entry=-1

they've also got packs of 2 different edge scissors for 50p a pack. They do charge delivery under a certain amount though.

morning everyone

apart from walking the dog im not venturing out today plan to spend the day crafting. I thought I would start making a card for my DD birthday in 2weeks. i have been clearing out my craft room and although its not finished its definitely better. I m making a list of things I need to get as I go along. not sure whether to do an online shop or to wait until weather improves and visit a craft store what do you all do or prefer.

has anyone started on next years xmas cards yet?

I've got to sort my box of bits out this afternoon. I'm going to make a card or 2 if I can. But I've got a couple of work things to do this afternoon as well

I tend to do a bit of both. My village has the most amazing treasure trove of a craft shop which I often leave with things I didn't even know I needed:rotfl: I also buy from eBay, C&C and other online retailers.

I have made a birthday card for a birthday in March but haven't started my daughters which is need for February.
