Ideas for card craft beginner

mumoftwo

Home again. It was a long drive. Still have to unpack the car :eek: We had a great time, the cuttlebug was doing overtime, since I bought some more embossing folders. It is great making and discussing making cards with someone else. We had a great time, definately to be repeated..

I have the lurgie, but I did manage to make a card with ribbon this week - the picture will have to wait. Basically, I had the clever idea of stamping on to this silver ribbon I have, and it looks really fab.

I did try out my new heat gun too, and did my first ever heat embossing - I'm so impressed by it I want to do it all the time now. Need to get more colours!

Sounds like mumoftwo and polly had a great weekend - lucky guys!

Thanks Polly for showing off all our mess! DD (12) had a great time too, she made the most cards..
Yep Krystaltips, it will take over your house and it is highly addictive, always wanting new things. But once you have the tools etc, they last you a long time. Have fun.

Here is a photo of all the craft stuff I took to Polly: It filled the car and Polly's kitchen

That's a lot of stuff! I love those drawers though, I've got a small 2 drawer unit but the stuff is overflowing already... And OH is very understanding and doesn't mind me ordering £30 worth of stuff on impulse... I don't know if that's a good thing or not!

Bought a load more stuff yesterday from Ebay including the following:







All from a lovely Ebay seller called SilverLining2003 - she'll give free p&p on orders over £10, so of course I had to spend £10!
