26 Jan, 2011

 

Really, very beautiful indeed.

Thankyou Grandmage, Yorkshire and Lulu glad you like it :-)
Yorkshire it really is a beautiful cd and so easy to use you just put it in the computer and everything just comes up on screen,you can print calenders, shaped cards, all sorts, also been searching ebay for embossing folders for my cuttlebug this is one of my favourites though with the butterfly found they look lovely embossed on pearlescent card :-)

26 Jan, 2011

Good question Lulu aren't they what you have on your curtains

26 Jan, 2011

 

I certainly hope not Bj, I dont like creepy crawlies indoors!

26 Jan, 2011

 

Wow, this is a really beautiful card Simbad. You can send me one for my birthday too.

26 Jan, 2011

 

Lol Tetrarch :-))))
Lulu a cuttlebug is a really handy tool for anyone who likes cardmaking or scrapbooking, you buy plastic wallets with different patterns and pictures and put paper or card in these wallets put them in the cuttlebug and turn a handle and its pushed through rollers and when it comes out the other end the pattern is embossed on the paper, thats how the dark green on the right of this card was done, also you can buy dies which go through the machine and cut out different shapes, brilliant.
Email me your birthday Tetrarch and Alexandra and I'll send you one ;-) glad you like it.

26 Jan, 2011

 

think I might pm you my birthday too lol!

26 Jan, 2011

 

You are very clever Kathy, love it.

26 Jan, 2011

 

It looks like all of GOY will be sending you their address and birth dates. :o))))

26 Jan, 2011

 

that is so impressive simbad, you could have a card shop ~ not the gambling kind.
we could have a blog to write up all the birthdays !?

Kathy Im intrigued with the idea of Cuttlebug that is a really lovely card, where can you get Cuttlebug from and also the CD?

27 Jan, 2011

 

the cuttlebug is great Pp

27 Jan, 2011

 

Dying to know more about it;0)

27 Jan, 2011

 

Thanks everyone :-)))) yes all pm me your birthdays and I'll send you one, gives me an excuse to make some more:-))))
Carole here's a link to the cd, you can view pictures that are on the cd and also view some of the cards joannas design team have made with it, some really amazing cards, free postage and packing too.

The cuttlebug was bought for me by my daughter for christmas think this is the site she bought it from http://www.handyhippo.co.uk/s282-1-cuttlebug.html
Have fun:-)

27 Jan, 2011

 

You could probably get the cuttlebug cheaper elsewhere Carole, just google cheapest, must have been an offer on at christmas as I know my daughter paid £54 for mine and that had a C plate as well as the A and 2 Bs which seems to be extra now, I also got a pack of 4 free dies, you'll need the C plate if you want to use other makes of dies in the machine.

27 Jan, 2011

 

i think i would like a cuttlebug ~ just cos i like its name!

27 Jan, 2011

 

Μy birthday is in July too. I'm cancer also. Yorkshire, Lulu, Αlex....could Sticki be cancer as well????

27 Jan, 2011

 

no im not cancer.

27 Jan, 2011

 

Wonder who came up with the name Sticki, quite catchy though, although I call it my clutterbug because of all the bits and bobs that go with it,lol.
Am I the odd one out my birthdays December I'm Sagittarius.
Tetra's February can't remember what that is ?

27 Jan, 2011

27 Jan, 2011

28 Jan, 2011

 

LOL lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

28 Jan, 2011

 

I was born in the year of the Bunny, always found that a tad disheartening, would prefer Dragon!! A pink fluffy one like in the film Never Ending Story!

28 Jan, 2011

 

Noooo thats good Lulu..EVERYONE likes cuddling a Rabbit...you cant cuddle a dragon...can you Alex??? Grrr when I get to Corfu my girl..well!!!.................watch this space

28 Jan, 2011

I am a goat!!! But my element is FIRE....So watch out!

28 Jan, 2011

 

Goat? GOAT??????? hahahahahhehehehehlolololo arrrggghhh oooooooo!

28 Jan, 2011

 

PS..being Pisces...water puts out fire!

28 Jan, 2011

 

Tet, get with the program...We were talking about Chinese Signs here....
My astrological sign is Cancer, so I my element is water as well....
Now what do you have to say???

28 Jan, 2011

 

You could cuddle the dragon in never ending story!! I sometimes dream about friendly dragons, ever the optomist! I made a mosaic one once but sold it, only have a bad photo of it, will have to make another one!

28 Jan, 2011

 

I like dragons Lulu, I'll give you a cuddle. I even like the movie Eragon. I play around with my little guy and tell him I'm Saphira.

28 Jan, 2011

I'm a monkey .. LOL......

28 Jan, 2011

 

Better a monkey than a goat Amy.

28 Jan, 2011

 

snap amy!

28 Jan, 2011

 

I'm a Tiger so watch out rrrrroar.
See you're up to no good again Tetrarch lol lol lol.

28 Jan, 2011

 

Alexandramc now should be referred to as Saphira!

28 Jan, 2011

 

Dont let on to Alex but this is the meaning of Saphira~

People with this name tend to be very inspired, intuitive, and creative. Their aim is to improve the world and can be quite altruistic. They strive to see the "Big Picture" and achieve their dreams.

If she know she will be trying to make us give up drink! In fact, I think she's the drinkapist!

28 Jan, 2011

 

whats your alternative name tetra?

28 Jan, 2011

 

Andromeda Sticki...not cos I fancied Perseus but I always wanted to ride on Pegasus!

28 Jan, 2011

 

lulu do you have an alternative name?

28 Jan, 2011

 

how about you Sticki?

28 Jan, 2011

 

i cant think of one, but i knew you would have an idea ~ can you do one for me too?
i think GoY has worn me out this week? or could it be getting up early or not sleeping or having builders in since before christmas???

28 Jan, 2011

 

It was being down the hole living on bread, rope ladders and empty whisky bottles Sticki...I will bend my mind having been regaled with Salmon with herbs and spices, sauted & garlicked new potatoes, baby carrots and green beans with a mushroom sauce..lemon flavoured sponge with a limoncello sauce..2 g&t's wine and liqueur...

28 Jan, 2011

 

that sounds very good tet but i had dry aged steak, onions rings, chips, then profiteroles ~ and i didnt have to pay ~ steak was amazing.

28 Jan, 2011

 

I didnt have to pay either..or even cook it! Hey how about "Melba" for your name..She was opera singer and had a lot of food named after her!

28 Jan, 2011

 

dont mind the food bit but cant sing like that.

28 Jan, 2011

 

You can make a noise tho cant you?? lol!

28 Jan, 2011

 

i think her first name was nellie - dont fancy that - not that im fussy or anything

28 Jan, 2011

 

No, no Sticki the name Melba has become the rage in the US as a girl's first name...
Just think "can I liken thee to a summer's day" becomes
"can I liken thee to an ice cream dessert"...oh lordy...my OH is getting infected. He's playing scrabble on puter and just come up with the word "boozing"!

28 Jan, 2011

 

oh there is no hope - how do you play scabble on the computer? i play spider solitaire but im fed up with it and need a new game.

28 Jan, 2011

 

ooops just noticed the 'scabble' but ive left it in cos i quite like it - think thats what i play or maybe thats scramble

28 Jan, 2011

30 Jan, 2011

 

im watching larky rise to candleeeford.

30 Jan, 2011

 

Ooh arrr..zo be I!

30 Jan, 2011

 

them do speak dont they?
just seen the jay, land on the roof, take a piece of bread ~ not sure where from and fly back to the fence, wish he would come to the bird table so i could get a photo!

31 Jan, 2011

 

We have them here apparently but Ive only caught a rare glimpse..would love to get a pic too..but they are so shy..still Sticki keep your eye out cos if they are after bread they must be hungry

31 Jan, 2011

 

Ive just put out a load of bread and grapes and out of date bacon on neighbours open bird table...we have a flock of magpies, half a doz woodies, a crow some seagulls all around it..in our garden its heaving with sparrows, blackbirds, chaffs, goldies, tits and greenies and our wagtail and black cap!

31 Jan, 2011

 

you have very different birds from me but then it seems you spread a feast on their table ~ obviously i have been much too mean.
why do you put the food on the neighbours table ~ is yours full already?

31 Jan, 2011

 

We dont have an open table, just feeders..about 8 of them! We hang them in trees away from the cats. There are too many places for cats to hide in our garden. Neighbours garden just grass so the bigger birds go there.

31 Jan, 2011

 

wonderful card with so many thing to look at in the picture. Magical

15 Feb, 2011

 

Thankyou :-))))))
