When I spend ages over where to stick a teeny weeny embellishment like a pearl or diamante gem my sister calls it "Fiddle Fart"
A FEW CHANGES .....
A SMORGASBORD OF BLOG POSTS .......!!!!!!!
I still do not have a scheduled bank of crafty blog posts ...... HOWEVER, I had an e-mail from my lovely friend Jan The Fan who suggested that though I still feel that I can't produce a "crafty" post on a daily basis, I might consider adding the odd very short post about perhaps one of my many "objects of desire", charity shop finds, what's in the shops, ideas & inspiration, other blogs that catch my fancy, sayings, and some of my photographs etc. as and when I feel like it ..... and I thought why not? ...... I am still not promising a post every day ..... but if you pass on by you never know what you might find!!
OLD TEMPLATES AND FILES
I am sorry I cannot send out any templates, poems etc. that I may have previously offered before May 2012 ...... my computer decided to die then and I lost all my files and I do not intend to redo or replace them, what's gone is gone!

Nothing Much In The Shops
I had a quick whizz around yesterday but all I got was three packs of A4 envelopes (10 in a pack for £1) from a stall on Penkridge Market (Staffs) for my mate Lisa.
I wouldn’t know where to start making a card that big!
The large envelopes are great for making gift bags! Seal the envelope, stamp all over it to make a BG, tear or cut off one of the short ends, score a 1-inch margin around the remaining three sides (or any constant measurement depending on your needs) and pop it all out, fold it into an open-topped box. You'll have little triangles on the bottom to stick down... Bob's your uncle! :)
And that's what you do with a large envelope. :) Hope this helps....
