Hello Everyone

Well I read this thread every single day and I still haven't got around to making my friend's wedding invitations for her, even though I've got all the supplies.

I wondered if it might be possible for you to kindly post all the links to your favourite sites in one place for us beginners to find them easily?? I mean the sites where you buy your card supplies, embellishments, etc?

There seems to be loads of good websites throughout this thread, but I'm sure I keep missing them and forgetting to save them too! :rolleyes:

Maybe when Polly as more time she could edit the first post so all the sites (selling and freebies) would be there and culd be added when someone finds a new one

Fab Polly, one down, remind me how many more to go...? :rotfl:

I made 157 placecards last night. Cut my hand on the guillotine and have a blister on my thumb where I was folding so much card. They look good though :rotfl:

Just been 'googling' away, as I do, and came across this site. Don;t know if anyone's used them but some of the bits and pieces looked interesting and seems there's a sale on

I'm off to visit my Mum tomorrow for a week, no internet there!!!! I'm taking some cross stitch, and I was clever - I ordered some card making stuff and have asked for it to be delivered to my Mum's so I'll have some bits to play with while I'm there. I ordered a "flower soft" starter kit, I have wanted to have a go at this for ages, so I'm looking forward to trying that. I don't know if i'll get a chance to look on here tomorrow morning before I go, so I thought I'd say "see you soon" now. Can't wait to get back and read what you have all been getting up to. Melissa.
