Ideas for card craft beginner

Maggie_Bob

Ah, I must have been rounding up, £1.50 sounds more like Wilko's prices:rotfl:

I got some scissors there today with different heads to cut different fancy ways... £2... and then I popped to tesco and got some clear stamps with big acrylic blocks for £5 a set... Got some birthday ones and a full set of the alphabet... Upper and lower case! Can't wait to get using them.

The trouble I'm having at the moment is all my crafting things are crammed into a little cupboard and to make 1 card you have to get most of it out and then cram it all back in... Which is kind of putting me off... I am contemplating kicking DD out of the dining room... (It's a funny shape room stuck on the side of the kitchen that generally just gathers junk, we eat at the table in the living room) A few weeks ago we decided to rid the living room of toys and put them in the back room for DD along with a comfy ikea chair and a tv with dvd playing capabilities... She really doesn't bother in there much and just brings toys from upstairs into the lounge... So I think I'm just going to put all toys in her bedroom and comandeer the space for craftiness...

I've gone on a bit there justifying myself haven't I... lol.

im not sure what to do ???????? I know they retail between £40 and £50 the only way of selling it really is through
E bay :eek: :eek: to be honest i dont know if i could do with the hassle anyway im yet to play with it yet xxxx But i do really need a cuttle bug lol lol

Get it out, have a play but DO NOT fall in love with it ... you have already said you have similar things ... besides you need to put it on ebay and get rid because a cuttlebug is needed ... oh and also a cuttlebug is smaller! therefore takes up less space!

Were the stamps in the sale or just a really cheap full price?

:rotfl: Krystaltips it only gets worse you know ive been cardmaking for 11 months now and i stared with a small box now i have enough to fill a room i bet. The thing is we have 2 spare rooms but they are full of junk :rotfl: think we need to declutter then i can make a start on my very own craft room so we can get the house back to normal think hubby is getting a bit fed up with finding gems and glitter stuck on his sock etc :rotfl:

Not really... I'm always flogging stuff on there... Helps pay for my buying off there habit... I get bored of writing the descriptions sometimes but the actual process is easy...
