Well, are any of you up for it? I don't normally send Easter Cards but it seems that we are all in the doldrums at the moment and need something to cheer us up

I would love to organise it.

'Trapped wind or appendicitus'!!! Let's hope it's the former...although your duvet might not agree! Hope you feel better soon x

JayzMummy · 25/03/2006 10:03

Bloomin heck UCM....hope you are feeling better soon.
Ive got all my bits ready for Kiwi and will be posting on Monday.

PeachyClair · 25/03/2006 10:27

UCM Sad hope you're OK.

I got mumps. Serves me right for being at Uni I guess.

pootlepod · 25/03/2006 10:38

kickassangel, will look out for the post- I am not so organised I am afraid, Blush , decided on an idea last night but am going away so will have to do everything Sunday night. Blush

Sorry, but it will be coming.

UCM - feeling better this morning?

If you are...what V&Ps did you send me? The reason that I ask is that there was a gash in the envelope when it was delivered. All I got were three bits of card; gold, green and white. I assume there was more? I think that RM has struck again. If you don't really protect the stuff with thick card, their sorting machines rip them apart.

Dior · 25/03/2006 10:58

ps - Whizz - got yours too this morning, thanks. Liked the recycling of my fancy Jordans Bar box!

UCM · 25/03/2006 11:44

Well I don't think it's appendicitis anymore, I have trapped wind, if any of you have had it, it's the most painful thing and has made me feel really poorly. Dior, there are 3 bits missing. a small 5 x 3 inch piece of white card, a large silver eyelet, and an A5 piece of black card. Hopefully you have that in stock. What a shame that it got ruined. I can send them if you want.

Don't worry - I've got those in my craft stuff. Glad it's only trapped wind...have a good fart, that usually clears it! Sorry to lower the tone Grin

Whizz - What were the letters supposed to spell? I thought it was 'Surprise', but I had a 'C' instead of the second 'R'! Have I made a boo boo? I have done something sneaky to make the word 'surprise', but I can't help thinking that I have missed something...

Whizzz · 25/03/2006 21:16

Hi Dior - Thats really funny !! If you have made the card now I can reveal what my word was !For a moment I thought I'd cut the wrong letters, but I've just realised what you've done !
What you used as a U, I used as a N - tee hee Grin

Whizzz · 26/03/2006 18:42

I've made my card from Diors B&Ps Grin

  • someone remind me when its time to post pics of various things !
Yorkiegirl · 26/03/2006 18:50

Whizzz · 26/03/2006 19:32

pootlepod · 26/03/2006 21:51

kickassangel B and P arrived Saturday. Smile

I got organised and sent you your B and P's on Saturday so they should be with you soon.

UCM · 27/03/2006 01:02

UCM · 27/03/2006 07:28

I have been good, I have put the photo of my B&Ps sent to Dior \link{http://uk.photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/mumsnetcrafters/vwp?.dir=/Challenges/Spring+Challenge&.src=gr&.dnm=UCM+to+Dior.jpg&.view=t&.done=http%3a//uk.photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/mumsnetcrafters/lst%3f%26.dir=/Challenges/Spring%2bChallenge%26.src=gr%26.view=t\here}

The only problem is it's in the old albums, so everyone might have to use my link to get it. Also on this you still have to delete full size. AAaaaaaa the joys of Yahoo sodding up our albums. AQ if you can be of any help here. I can't understand why they are still letting us use the old ways........., but if this works then..

kickassangel · 27/03/2006 11:45

I haven't got my b&p yet (typical of my village post), but when they do arrive, I've never used yahoo before - how do I put the picture up?

pootlepod · 27/03/2006 16:44

I think I have messed up (not having a very successful day today Sad).

Kickassangel, did you send beads and thread as well- have just found these after I have made the card! (Not your fault- didn't check properly) Thinking now how I can incorporate them.

Also went to take photos of it and my B&P but camera's not working.

UCM · 27/03/2006 17:24

take photo make sure it's in my pictures on your pc, then use link in my previous post to get to yahoo album, if you aren't a group member us sign in Mumsnetter password netter when you get to photo of my bits n pieces at the top there should be an option to add photo, click and then click on browse to take you through your photos stored on your pc open the one you want to upload and presto!!! Well hopefully

PeachyClair · 27/03/2006 17:24

I haven't received any B&Ps either yet, I also forgot to take photo Blush but will attempt to ecreate tomorrow as a diversion from the awful psychology report i have to write.

UCM · 27/03/2006 17:26
