Hey @Faith-and-Hope & @Zoe7 - you have inspired a new space!
I love that you guys are doing the crossword together - so fun!
I thought we could start up a quizes, crosswords and other fun brain teasers thread for people to come and play and take their mind off everything - what do you think?
Please pull up a seat with your coffee in tow and bring your crossword into here 
I have been impressed with your answers @Zoe7!!

Phew, you re-appeared @Former-Member. Now I really need to get back to what I was doing but...I still think 11 across is credit card. Are we certain about the S that is sitting in there?

I think you are right @Phoenix_Rising about credit card as I've just worked out 3.DOWN is EMEND! Sorry @CheerBear I thought Edits was a great answer!
So we still need to get:
4. DOWN One of the layers of whcih a shoe heel is made (7) H _ _ _ T _ _
5. DOWN a source of light (3,4) O _ _ _ A _ _

@Former-Member I would say 4 down is plastic, but that would make "face the other way" incorrect. Is that right?

@Faith-and-Hope I just googled what a heel tip is...can you tell I've never owned a pair of heels in my life...but that's ok, from what I know of @Former-Member she has bought up my quota of heels.

That is right @Phoenix_Rising so i think we should stay strong with face the other way.
@Faith-and-Hope has offered some awesome ideas.
lets confirm by putting them in and seeing what this could be then:
9. ACROSS Delicate and light (8) _ T _ E _ E _ E - too many E's? The last two are from HEEL TIP and OPEN AIR

As much as I'm having fun here @Former-Member, I really do need to disappear now. I was supposed to be resting my brain over lunch and now I seem to have cooked it.
