    Thanks so much Polly and Melissa, I'm going to try and have a go at this. it sounded scary but the instructions make it look ok. Looking forward to seeing everyone else's creations!

    Not actually sure if I have any A4 card so may have to get some!


    to all of you who have made pop up cards - the instructions are for A4 size, would it work with a smaller size?
    TIA

    Yes, it will work with any size, as long as the two cards are the same

    Durr, I am thick sometimes, didn't think I could use A5 card to make an A6 card :o I have that size so may try that.

    Just wanted to ask a question about QVC.

    Do they charge one lot of postage and packing (ie a combined postage if you buy more than one item) or do you pay the amount that they state per item?? Saw some nice K & Co stuff and might buy it from there.

    Thanks
