    Good morning all!!

    Well done on wins!!

    I got my delivery yesterday of sizzix dies!!....So i had a wee play and im delighted with them!!
    I went to the childrens school to pick up the two wee ones....Well one at 3 as the other had football training!!....so I brought DD home and she said oh mummy we need these for school...we are making buns! I bought a cupcake holder die and it is fab......so off i went at 4pm to collect DS and brough down a holder to the teacher.....who said..."mummy are you doing more crafty bits, i wish i had your talent" :rotfl: lol. So she said that she would love some, im happy to do this as again it makes me feel useful (weird huh?) so I cut 20 out of card and 20 out of paper...in the whole school there are 90 pupils so that should cover 3 classes at least!!
    Will post pics on my blog later.

    Hope everyone is well.

    Oh my Aunt went to the BIG hospital yesterday and they found that below her stent there was a narrowing....they inserted another stent through a vein in her arm!!....she is at HOME now recovering!!!!

    Morning!

    Congratulations Toms Mum! & Dragonllew!

    Wifey - I always have problems cutting with narrow border but think it's me rather than the cutter as I have dodgy eyesight! I use a woodware trimmer. Sorry that's not much help is it?

    Flourgirl - not sure I understand what style you mean - but I have seen her cards! Sorry again I don't use publisher. Hope your Mum is OK today.

    JHB - will go & have a look what I can find in a moment

    Mumoffour - Good news about your aunt - that she's home (if you see what I mean). Hope to get labels posted today - let me know when you are ready for more!

    Hugs to all the poorlies and fed ups - hope you are all feeling better soon.
