Love the website and have saved a few of the ideas.
Would anyone be able to tell me how the cardmakers have got the scalloped edge flower-type shape? It's used on a few of the cards, e.g the santa card near the bottom of the first page of cards. Is it a nestabilities folder?

It looks like a nestabilities die to me although you can get very large scalloped punches

Try on You Tube search under "Cuttlebug" and that's you sorted until at least March!

Here's a good one and very adaptable http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81ijR1-wp6o&feature=related I use this method to use up ink on dead and dying ink pads that I'm not going to bother re-inking.

I've posted these links elsewhere but belt and braces

I've watched some tutorials on the use of the cuttlebug, but the ones I've seen are American, they tend to use something rubber to stop the ''lines' that appear if you use card that is wider than the folder, can anyone recomend something rubber or siimilar that I could get in this country, hope this makes sense, thanks

Also if you use inks on your folders does it wash off?

There isn't usually much ink left on the folder and what there is can usually be wiped off with a tissue.
