Well that didn't take me long did it. Swiss dots and a flower die ordered using my points from my original order and the 15% off code - so I only had to pay £2.93 for them both.

Hi everyone.

I think the craziness in my life is going to subside so I can get back into cardmaking!

I'm really sorry to have to post this but...is anyone waiting for something from me? I just want to check as life has been tough for us the past 10 days or so and I'm worried I may have promised someone something and then not followed it up. :eek:

Pls do send me a PM if I have neglected you.
(Flourgirl your goodies were sent today)

Seriously, I've just been embossing ever since I opened the box - it's like magic. I sat myself down with the instruction book and a cup of tea expecting to be bamboozled but it was so easy that I thought the middle of the instructions must have fallen out!
Just wait till '& son' sees it tomorrow! I'll never see it again. Don't tell him but I've ordered him a cuttlekids for his bday in September.

I have

• devine swirls
• snowflakes
• birds and swirls
• happy birthday

+ the ones that came with it
and the ones I've ordered today - swiss dots and the flower die.
Really pleased as all in all over the last few days I've spent about £75 (as long as we don't count the cuttlekids) but for that I've got all of the above, my bug, basic grey cupcake 6x6 pad, 5 sheets of BG aphabets, embellishment stickers and monograms, a cream 8x8 pad (which I don't really like but it was only 85p), 160 brads, a corner rounder and 2 lots of special brads.
The embossing folders were bargainous in the US - $2.99!
I'm compiling my shopping list for when she goes back in October already

And if anyone claims my post above is not MSE - I've just used my bug to make the basis of a happy birthday card from a galaxy wrapper (the pink silver foil part) - see I wasn't kidding about embellishing anthing that crossed my path!

OOh dawnteabag i bought my grandaughter a cuttlekids for christmas it's fab and keeps her hands off the bug . Added bonus is all the dies fit in the bug too. The fairy alphabet is great. I bought loads of dies for hers on ebay from a seller in the us .
