I think the ones that you have posted are fab, I like the baby cards one, I have 4 friends that are pregnant at the minute.

That looks good. there are great bargains on EBay aren't there? I have a friend who puts together card making packs- you give her a cost (you'd be amazed what you get a fiver!), and maybe a theme. She sends a parcel of papers, embellishments, pressed flowers, sequins, fibres- whatever. it's a great way to get going when I run out of ideas.

baby card

This is the baby card I am working on at the mo, scroll forwards if it brings up the wrong pic- there aren't many on there. Friend's baby due next week. When I know the sex I'll ink round the edges in blue or pink, and add the name on the front, probably in silver rub ons. I got the feet in the shaker box for free

All my life i have kept 'bit'n'bobs'..and scraps of 'this'n'that'...bits of lace...ribbon.....sparkly bits....bits of lovely christmas cards...buttons....etc....etc...

I have always been 'crafty'...but found most crafts i started...became too 'time consuming'...taking up too much space etc.....

So over the past few months i have 'lurked' on this board (after actually having the privalege of meeting J'sM ...and us chatting about her cards etc....)..... and then i began buying a few bits ready to start making cards.

Now i am at the point where i can churn a few out...but am finding that i still feel that whatever card i do ...i spend too long deliberating over what bits and bobs to use.....

so i guess i need MORE! MORE! MORE! of EVERYTHING!!!!

PEACHYCLAIR.... that friend you mentioned that bundles stuff for a fiver... would she do something for me....infact J'sM etc...would you???

As what strikes me when i am looking in all the craft shops is that i want a bit of this...a little of that...and it's all in packs of 10 or 20...so i leave it on the rack...as i'm not wanting to 'mass produce' 10 of the same design...i fancy making each card different...so this is where i guess those of you who have already a stash to be proud of...who could bundle a selection together... to 'inspire' me????

But...going back to my lifelong habit of hoarding 'all that glitters'...or living by the phrase 'that will come in handy'.... well...i def think i have at last found the hobby to make full use of that 'squirelling' of bric-a-brac!!!

MrsEffervescent · 02/09/2005 23:24

Dior...ref your 'goofy grin'...reminds me of me at the moment when i a hesitant to 'rip some paper' ...or cannot decide what to 'embelish'...and i sit there touching...feeling... draping....and gathering rose buds and ribbons...placing them on different cards...

and i too seem to have a daft look as i do it...infact i almost go into a trance!!!! OOOOOOHHHHHH!!!!

champs · 03/09/2005 19:03

biglips -- packs look good value for money, see if you can find out what storage is.

yea dior you'll wonder how you lived without it, just be warned that you'll be drooling over all the dies. which ones did you get?!

MrsEffervescent -- lolol you sound like me I pack and unpack my stash looking and stroking. IKWYM re big packs of stuff.

MrsEffervescent · 03/09/2005 19:07

champs...i even dream about it all!!!! And 1st thing i think off when i wake up!!!!!

then i feel i am 'scanning' my surroundings constantly for 'embelishment' items!!!!

champs · 03/09/2005 19:18

lol, you're a magpie!! my new find is paperclips, i got a huge tub of coloured ones.

champs · 03/09/2005 19:19

MrsEffervescent · 03/09/2005 21:44
