Morning all

Could I please ask what people's thoughts are on receiving handmade cards. This is something I've started doing recently and I've made a couple for friends' birthdays. We've now been invited to the wedding evening do of one of DH's colleagues - he barely knows her and I've never met her. Anyway, I've made a card but wonder whether they would think we are just complete cheapskates or would it be acceptable? All thoughts welcome

Perfectly acceptable especially with wedding cards as you don't really want any duplicate ones. Mum and I made cards for about 10 years and all were welcomed and admired. So much machinery you need nowadays for totally professional cards but a card made with love is perfect.
What type of cards do you make? Mum was fond of iris folding and made some stunning cards from self made templates. My cards were more art based but make some from kits as well. So want the Disney card making cm rooms.

I have an announcement. Since small bears are not allowed fb accounts Mr Ted will be holiday blogging on Instagram from 29th May. His name is Mr MSE Ted but I am looking for a slogan for him bit like bear on the Stair at Xmas. Hit a brick wall. I do hope his fans follow him as he will sulk if he doesn't get a following.

What on earth is going on?:rotfl:

I am out of supply for washing machine as didn't get from waitrose as too far from me. I was actually proud of myself I bought a 38 wash bold in Sainsbugs for £5 and mum remarked 'well it is under 20 p a wash'! Lol

WE I have been buying g the mega size prof one in b and m but heron foods is apparently cheaper.

Waiting to see if tesco do a nice promotion on cinema tickets along with whatever deal we got on washing machine supplies.
Not been this way since I joined in 2012:eek:
