    Tissue paper does not cost much at all its really cheap and thats why i put free style for 1 of the challenges because i know some people dont have stamps etc so they can do somthing else like matting and layering etc xx

    I don't have emboossing stuff or stamps either.

    And whats 'matting' and 'waterfall' ???? :confused:

    Oh, and thanks for the dates and stuff polly............I'll make a note of them.

    emmzy......I'm sure your card turned out lovely and your Dad will be so pleased you made it yourself. Gives it the 'personal' touch I think.

    (PS........does anyone get any housework done since this thread started...........lol???)

    Hiya, I've been in the MSE pub, the Arms, not drinking of course, just having idle chat about the olden days...

    Thanks for the schedule Polly, so if we want now we could do all of them in one day :eek: and rest for 3 or 4 weeks! :rotfl: (maybe get our housework done? :D ) Also, there was no mention of decoupage, can that be for the week after?

  • How about a theme where you dont use any BOUGHT materials, just ones recycled from cards and from product packaging???
