Wanted: big pack of baby 'thank you' cards

[franch]

See this thread

[Dingle]

Do you have any idea of what you want franch?

[franch]

Open to suggestions, design-wise - what are my options?? Need to keep the cost down, obviously

[Dingle]

Any preference on sytle, I could do the little sizzix bitty babies quite cheap on a small basic card. I am willing to get together a few samples and work out prices for you. How many do you need?

[franch]

Don't know what sizzix bitty babies are but they'd need to be brown Would need about 40

[Dingle]

franch, they could be whatever colour you want my love!They would be made however you wanted, within reason!

If you are interested in seeing a few ideas, CAT me or email dinglescards at yahoo.co.uk and I will email you a few ideas.

They're very nice but a bit pricey for me - those prices are per card? Need to keep things very simple I'm afraid

[champs]

franch -- are you creative at all? if so you could get some blank cards cheaply or even cardstock and fold it. then you could design and make your own. or one of us with a sizzix can cut you out some baby bits and you could stick them on your card. a peel off sticker saying thaks will complete your card and are also cheap to buy and come on sheets.

I have been thinking about doing this myself but with an 18mo to entertain and only 4 weeks to my due date I can't really see when that would happen!

[champs]

hmmmm, have you found any yet? I remember seeing some in wh smith but they were in a small pack and not the cheapest option. the only other places i've seen are clintons and birthdays.

[franch]

Looks like Dingle may be sorting me out

[champs]

brilliant!! her work is great.
I would have offered to help you out but baba is due anytime now and didn't want to disapoint you at last minute.

[franch]

Thanks champs

Am I right in thinking you live in N London?

[champs]

yep

[franch]

We have a mutual friend, dont we - the lovely MarsLady? Didn't realise you were pg too. Mine's due 5 Sept. I'm sure we'll meet sometime. Good luck

[Dingle]

franch, sorry to pester, but did you get my email last night. I tried a tiscali addy which came back with an error, so I tried another one!

[franch]

Not pestering at all Dingle, I got it and have just replied. My other email address (email at my name.com) is the best one to use.

[champs]

yes Franch, lovely Marsy!! she did give you a glowing report when i went to see her.

[franch]

Awww. Maybe we can all meet up with our broods sometime.

[champs]

yep would be lovely, I'm overdue a visit to marsy.

[franch]

What's your due date then champs? Looks like I'm seeing Mars on 22nd - will you have popped by then?

[champs]

hopefully but will prob be a while till I venture out.

[franch]

Of course. Was thinking if you were due after that it might be a nice break for you (I def need to fill my nearly-due days to avoid going insane). Well good luck - I guess you must be due imminently - see you with our new additions sometime soon I hope

[champs]

yep today or tomorow by my dates, next week by hosp dates!

[franch]

Woah - fingers crossed - see you soon
