Hello I have not long got into crafts and it's proving to be very expensive keep buying from Hobbycraft overtime i need something. Does anyone know where I can get reasonably price craft materials?

Try craft superstore online shop or eBay

I agree with Pinkpuppy. But check on-line stores /hobbycraft for prices before buying on Ebay. I have seen stuff sell on there for more than the shop price, and the postage can be expensive too. Having said that, a friend got some fab Tim Holtz dies (£15+) for £2 on ebay.

Wrapping paper can sometimes make a nice, cheap alternative to patterned papers too.

Robyn you saying about gift wrap, reminds me gift tags in big packs make fab cheap toppers too

Tinfoil is fab for embossing on & looks brilliant a,so cut the ribbons out of tops they are often perfect for cards :-)

I used some left over party hats from ages ago as a cheap alternative to miri card as well and keep your eyes open for nice packaging that can be recycled.
