Ta Dah, this is what I have done, - be gentle with me ladies

These are the cards I have made this afternoon, each one gets better, havent finished them off totally as I have some glitter to put on some and some silver or gold pen, but I was waiting for the glue to dry. Its not that easy to see but most of them are 3d and I have had a go at embossing (the bauble and white one) I have really enjoyed myself 5 hours sat to the kitchen table lovely.  What a mess paper and card everywhere never mind I will do it in the morning no one to see it. hah

 Only playing at the moment trying to find my own style.

Only joking I do remember them,  53 I am, just didn't use them very much being under 11 and not having much money I used to get tuppence to buy sweets on a Saturday.

Ed they are fabulous 🙂

Thought I heard my name mentioned, not usually in here wearing these clothes.  I would be more than happy to list a few for CIN if you wanted to donate.

Oh and you won't just be hoovering glitter til Easter, my elderly cat used to sit on the table while I crafted and she often sparkled.

Lovely cards Ed!  Well done you, amazing for a first attempt!

I was in primary 2 when decimalisation took place and

consequently my Mum used me as her ready reckoner!

"How much is that in REAL money" was her constant cry.

But it sure got it into my head too.

Cosmic, loving the thought of your sparkly cat ❤️

Ed, they are really lovely. 🙂 Well done!!

[bitsnknots]

They are brilliant ed.  Well done.

[chickengrandma-2008]

They are really good.  They don't look home made (but I mean that as a compliment)  My homemade ones are definitley 'rustic'  

It's amazing to think my son is 43 and never new 'old' money at all.

Joins CG's son in never having known old money  !!

[petitecalicocat]

Your cards are beautiful ed

[captainbovine]

we thought you were making more cards Ed....

the production line should be getting going now, you've got orders you know, me and rose sit waiting patiently in your shop........

[ed_blackadder_1]

Yes I have made some more, another 10, and I thought I would try my hand at tags as well.   OH came back and moaned because you can't get to the kitchen table and made some comment about bloody Christmas.

[ginap.123]

Exactly the reason I'm getting a craft room in the spring. I was often asked if we still owned a dining table 'under that junk'

[rose2008-2008]

Maybe you and me should open our own shop, i would love to do that with someone. Then we would be the bosses!!!!!!!!!. make cards and sweets all day Ed ha ha ha YEAH awwwww.

[ed_blackadder_1]

Now thats an idea!

[ed_blackadder_1]

Gina, I would love a craft room or a room all to myself, our spare room is an office as hubby works from home, and my 21 year old son looks as if he is going to stay forever. So will have to wait for a while.

Some comments were passed about the kitchen table last night so everything was packed up in a huf and put away. Going out tomorrow to buy more stuff ha ha!

[cookiecookuk]

i will join your shop and sell cakes for people to eat while they look at the cards and sweets.

[captainbovine]

can I join in too? I can sew felty things, and make cakes too....not bad for a coo eh?
