good idea sally...
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

Thanks

I think perhaps Polly is a bit harassed at the moment judging by her posts!

Poor girl, hope you get there in the end Polly! lol

I don't know where you get the idea that I'm good at card making... I just stick things on to pre made cards... lol. I might give it a go, I have some really thin card and thinking of getting a crop a dile (still!) and popping eyelets in the bottom and holding it together with ribbon...

rusty, - super cards, the fan looks really complicated so well done:T
rainmac - how do you think of the ideas ? I'd never have thought of that and yes, it does look like a christmas cracker...........lol Love the colours:T
and toni - love it - so cute.:T

Haven't attempted cards all week and got one to make for our foster lads 18th on 22nd...........not a clue where to start with the 'jobless little wonder'.................lol

Haven't been on here for ages - well, I've been reading but haven't had much time to make cards so haven't posted! Got the new issue of Let's Make Cards in the post yesterday though, plus have ordered a bunch of stuff from ArtyMiss so hopefully I'll be back up and running soon!

Hi you lot Ive just found your thread by accident and am glad I did - Im new to the DFW forums (feel a bit guilty about the amount of stuff i actually have brought for myself over the past few years!!!!!) so have sorted through my stuff and there are some bits im putting on ebay !!! i dont feel guilty about the odd new bits and pieces i buy then.;)
All your cards are lovely - really lovely!!:T:T
Ive just completed an acetate card using Docrafts Acetate sheets - if i can understand how to download on to a thread i will do it (hmmm - might take me few days to fathom that one out!!any help greatly appreciated
speak to you all soon happy crafting xx
