Been on a Card making course today...

[jenk1]

And it was FAB
It was a boys and men one and im brimming with ideas, i havent made cards since Nov 05 with all thats been going on, ive wanted to but hadnt the energy.

I made a fab boys one and some mens ones, and now i really really want a sizzix machine

You can do SO much more with one.

I dont know how to put pictures in the groups thing or i would post pictures.

Well done you. I'm OK on boys cards but mens cards are so tricky !
A Sizzix is great! I'm seeing how many variations I can come up with using the Sizzix body. I have just made a cool pirate on a desert island !!

oooh do post them - I will find the link

I have no idea on mens cards

sorry

well done jenk!

it is really easy to put pics onto yahoo,

\link{http://uk.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/mumsnetcrafters/spmkd/782d?m=a&c=Jenk1\then clcik here and clcik on browse to find the pic on your PC} then clcik upload. it does take a while to load each one, and I'd only do 3 at a time, at the most. don't panic if you wait a few minutes. then cross your fingers and your pics should be there.

if that fails email them to me.

I will get DH to do them when the kids are in bed as i havent got a clue.

i've just loaded them.Have a look

where are they>?

I cant see them

Think ive done something wrong, it lets me upload them and give them titles but then theres nothing there.
CALLING AUNTYQUATED OF JAYZMUMMY

hello hello
sorry been at work today. i will go and have a look

well they definitly aren't there.

if they upload successfully it should take you to your album automatically where you should be able to see them.

try one more and if it doesn't work you can email them to me. auntyquated at yahoo dot co dot uk

i have just emailed them to you

jenk-- i got your email but it said 'file not found' when i tried to open the attachment. what format did you save them as?

i dont know, its DH who does the computer stuff he says hes going to try something else.

ok; give me a shout if i can try and help.

to go on yahoo they maust be a jpg file.

hth

right they are there.

and they are really lovely, like the stitching on them.

They are loaded now on the yahoo group page if anyone wants to look, under Jenk1

can i ask a question? - to anyone who knows more about making cards than i do - when you have borders (sometimes several layers) around an image, are you cutting them with ruler & blade, or do you have a machine to do it? i must be monumentally untidy, 'cos i can never get my things to look this good - blades always seem to go blunt, rulers slip etc.
cards look good jenk.

Kissangel...I use one of these to cut my cardstock for layering.
