They are all gorgeous, god I need to make some room for some new papers in the coming months I think!!!

Mel, huge congrats on your blog candy win, I was so excited when I saw your name

Padster, I've sussed the box :j, I was being dopey with the measurements last night, my lid is now fine and box is decorated. Now need to look for something to go in it for Mother's Day

I knew I should put my paws over my eyes before I clicked on any links that Mel posts! .
I love MME some of those new ones are gorgeous - I may have to invest in the Cosmo Cricket Material girl .

I really hate to admit it but think I prefer the basic grey (bet you never thought you'd hear me say that!)

wanna-b-rich - I ordered those extending platforms and cutting plates and really impressed with their quick service I would use them again. However I have just used my Sizzix (only for the third time since I got it for xmas - convinced going to break it) anyway - I cut some alphabet letters and I just used the normal tabs and didnt need the other things like I thought I would (Does this make any sense???) - do you have experience of the sizzix - do you think I have done it wrong?? It worked though??

I can't believe how quick their turnaround appears to be! Ordered at 14:59 despatched at 15:33 - lets hope the items arrive as quickly.

I've loads more experience than you LOL I've used my Sizzix a total of five times:rotfl::rotfl:. I actually posted on another thread that I wasn't sure wether I'd damaged mine when I first used it as the plates got marked (obviously I know better now):o

I've ordered the plates and cutters so that I can use the alpha strips and a flower strip in it. I wasn't sure about putting the die through on the standard platform and plates in case I damaged the die. I also ordered a texturz starter kit, so that I can use the texturz plates. Hopefully if Sizzix ever have another mega sale, I will have everything I need to be able to use the stuff I order!!!

I've just spent the afternoon making my first exploding box and I'm hoping to have a go at making a card tomorrow, so will post the results on my blog tomorrow.
