Tom has been given a budget of $5 to spend on his aunty etc for Xmas. He would like to buy her something little and we know she often makes her own cards. What would you recommend.
Of course Tom told me all this....totally his idea...nothing to do with me
He's got the uncles, grandfathers sorted.....hankies all round. And one grandmother will get some fabric for quilting and the other....soap?? but Aunty is a hard one

Ok, my mum is the same... The Warehouse do cool stuff real cheap. A card punch, rubber stamps, some funky scissors, pack of papers, funky pens...they usually have heaps of stuff (up here anyway) otherwise you could try Spotlight they have same stuff (and more) but might cost a bit more.
Good luck

You can also get a lot of that stuff from the $2 shop and the stationary warehouse.

lol you live in the wop wops huh. Well definatly check out the warehouse then. Each warehouse stocks different stuff though so you may not have a great range at your local but its still worth a look
