Bargains of the Week …. from Home Bargains.

These are brooches/pins by Russ but only cost 49p each, they would be great attached to a card or tag.

These chocolate footballs were 59p – I was a bit dubious about the quality but they are yummy!  I bought them with the World Cup in mind.

This box of 50 tags and ribbons cost 99p. The tags are for putting on home made knitted or sewn items, on the backs there are little spaces to write the makers name, care instructions, dates etc. Quite lovely.

It's Party Time!

When making a card I usually start with the embellishment and work round them. 

These stickers were a bargain from Home Bargains, a little while ago, as a bogof. They worked out at £1.99 for two packs and I must have got 6+ cards from them.

The background paper was from a 12 x 12 scrapbook set I got from Ryman's,  which matched perfectly in scale and colour.

Every time I have made a batch of these cards they have sold immediately.
