If you check out Jack's blog you can see that she is indeed a talented crafter and has an online shop called Creative Craft Crewe, anyone live near Crewe?

Click on the link, CraftyLouise, it'll tell you where to get the stamp.

Thanks, found the blog. Looks like i need some markers as well, more shopping :rotfl:Not sure my colouring skills will be anywhere near as good.

Cant get the shopping site though, it loads but has nothing for sale bar 4 items.

Daisyflower markers is a very expensive slippery slope................................

I need a bit of help, please. I'm making a new baby card and I've seen a digital sentiment (at least I think it is) called little blessings and it says:

'it's the little blessingss that help us to see how lovely life can be'

I've tried Whimsy Stamps/Raindrop Echo who makes beautiful sentiments but not the one I want.

Anyone got any ideas?

Have to agree there, Padster.

Have you tried create with tlc Wifey?

You can always email Paulette (i think that's her name don't quote me) and ask her if you can't find one.

Can't think of anyone else at the mo

Can i ask another question please from you seasoned crafters before i order some nice things - are the wooden stamps and ones on clear plastic the same? Do i need a standard ink pad as dont want the pro markers to make the ink of the stamp run.

Both types stamp well, it depends on your preferences really. I have used Penny Black stamps both on wooden block and acrylic, and for those I prefer the wooden ones, but normally I use a lot of the acrylics.

I use Memento ink as it works well with Promarkers and doesn't run. It's worth investing in. I use both black and cocoa brown (I think it's called)
