my lovely friend is very into her cardmaking in particular and she really lacks confidence about it
I wanted to recommend this board to her but she is not a mum
would that be weird?

I don't see why not. There are non-Mums on MN in general.

Hark at me 'inviting' your friend - I don't even post on A&C so I don't care who's on there

Who would know, I wouldn't tell if you don't , I would have thought any crafters were welcome on this site. We're a friendly bunch

harpsichordcarrier · 15/02/2006 14:22

yes that's true
no-one's going to cross examine her about her mothering credentials
no we will only talk to you about Sizzix (sp?) if you can PROVE you have given birth and not otherwise!!!

The more the merrier I say

I'm not a mum

I joined for the knitting chat, and then got suckered and have just made my first purchases to begin card making.

tamum · 15/02/2006 16:29

Well, there you go then- I have been happily chatting to Lulabell without suspecting a thing I agree with SL though, tell her to join in, and if she starts knitting she can come and join us on the knitting threads too

It's that hairy truck drivers we need to watch out for...not crafters who aren't mums!!

JM is right...the more the merrier.

Lulabell · 15/02/2006 17:57

ooh i feel v naughty now! but everyone's been nice to me so far (admittedly i was here under false pretences). I'll let you know how im treated now that i've "come out" and you can tell your friend

ps, sorry tamum

I am a bit of a non mum anyway since I have been on Arts & Crafts. I disgracefully tell my child to 'go and ask Daddy' lots and have relegated him to the front room with Cbeebies/Barney loads of times. There is no room for children on Arts & Crafts, they muck up your stash

champs · 16/02/2006 02:28

lol ucm!!

harpsichordcarrier - your friend is very welcome here!

UCM · 16/02/2006 02:40

Wow champs, how come you are up. I have an excuse. Am at work.

champs · 16/02/2006 16:03

lol ucm!! i'm always up at crazy times.... and no i dont have an excuse

Pixiefish · 17/02/2006 00:02

what do you do then UCM if you were up at that ungodly hour?

UCM · 17/02/2006 20:56

As little as possible
