    Is this the disc you've got Brilly ?
    Few reviews say you have very basic package to start with and have to purchase extra through links ?? Xxx

    Some of them go up in price hun but they have 99p sales on which you will receive emails for thats when I get mine but theres still loads you can do without additional kits, you can also copy google images paste on the serif then use the cutter to cut the image out etc which I do quite often x

    Just found this thread Brilly and now making my own wine glass hoops that can be used as favours too so more money saved. :D And worked out that it will cost me about £30 to make all my flowers if I get the 60 roses for £20 from ebay offer :P

    just had a go at these and although time consuming they are pretty easy,
    All you need is double sided ribbon of choice (40 metres made 9 inch bouquet, pomander, button hole, wand and half a bridesmaid bouquet) polystyrene balls I used 15 and 12cm (half balls) dowelling rod for handle or you can improvise with a stuffed kitchen roll tube, and some material for underneath the ball. For the wand i used skewer sticks taped together. You will also need a glue gun. You can also use pearls as I have in the pic. For whats in the pic it cost me about £12 a lass on the bay is selling these for £50-80 for bride, £8.99 for buttonhole, £16.99 for wand and £30-50 for bridesmaid x

    I just made our confetti. I wanted green and white but nowhere did it and petals were too expensive. Spent £2 on a hole punch in the shape of a leaf and £6 on rice paper sheets. Het presto biodegradable confetti!

    Just seen this, sorry! I spent the time it took to watch a film lol! Just punched away whikst relaxing on the sofa. I was on forced rest from the hospital so wasnt allowed to do much! It filled a 1l kilner jar (you have to keep it air tight where it wont get moist) and should fill all my cones. I made them just out of brown paper!
