Lol, I would love to have a nice messy space to craft away in, but I have to use the dining table, and with a couple of under-5's running around during they day, anything I don't clear away they reckon is fair game for their own speial style of crafting :rotfl:

OMG yours is so tidy compared to mine! I'm ashamed! I will try and get a photo up tonight!

@loubyloulou - that's insane, £5? How much was postage? Does anyone have one? For £5 I'm tempted. What dies can you use?

I've just received the stamp set I ordered yesterday from The Glitter Pot :j. First time I've used them and am well impressed :T. Going to go and drool over them now .

I have one :eek: Choccy having a craft tool, theres a shock
You can use quickutz dies... Have a search on ebay

They are actually rather good and for £5 you cant go wrong i paid £30 for mine with a set of alphabets but ive bought lots more dies since then.
I love my squeeeeze for little die cuts but find they are not too good with some of the mini embossing folders you can get

HTH

I had a pink quikcutz squeeze but gave it away when i started to use my cuttlebug. It is really good for alphabets i have a quickutz one and is good for the dies too. Before i used my bug i loved it.

I'd show you my desk but there is so much stuff piled on it you can't see it lol.

I bought one of those second hand and I've got a few dies, alphabets etc. I've not used it yet though so let us know how you get on.

I thought for £5 i can't really go wrong and i can always sell it if i don't get one with it. I don't have any tools either really apart from a gliter girls board. I also got 10% off because it was my first order and i bought some bits for my cp secret santa

I am desperate for some male images please if anyone has anything. I am really after a DJ. I need to make a card by 6.00 night. It for my brothers bday i thought i had all day tomorrow to do it but he has asked us all out tonight so i need to get cracking now. Off to search google.

OMG - I've actually made a card! CT1970 your card swap is on it's way!

Furry - just wondering how you got on in Swindon last weekend?!

I'm not well - I had and hour and a half spare before i needed to pick up DD so what did I do? Swept up the millions of leaves in the drive clean ed out the drains and hoovered behind the TV before it goes back tonight and also up the stairs - cleaned the filter at the weekend and boy has it made a difference :eek:.

Needed to do something active as boss rang earlier to tell me to complete an hourly breakdown of what I'm doing - then she said I sounded fed up - is the woman daft? told her I was feeling generally carp as didn't think telling her was fed up with her being a control freak would go down well :rotfl: off to buy a lottery ticket and do the shopping

paddington.....................I'm worn out now just reading what you';ve done.................lol

OH got back from hospital this morning about 10.30am. All he'd had to eat while he was there was a egg mayonnaise sandwhich (he'd been better fed if he'd been in a police station!). Couldn't eat for 4 hours before his biopsy so he was starving! Anyway, least he's home now.............get the results next Tuesday (new it would be Tuesday !) so please girls..............knickers inside out.........or anything you want :j
I feel tons better than yesterday.......still coughing and sneezing but least my heads cleared -throat still like sandpaper though.......yuk !!
Made some little peg magnets and tomorrow I'm having a go at the paper clips. Might have got round to it today but got in a right muddle with the endless boxes of offcuts of paper I seem to have accumulated. Determined to use them up.

You're all such a busy lot...........keep at it..............haven't quite caught up with all the blogs yet but I will:j
