Rusty congratulations on your weight loss, and belated happy birthday

Had a busy weekend, me and OH went to a quarry to do a scuba dive yesterday, freezing cold and the visibility was rubbish, still good practice though. Was absolutely tired out last night still tired today.

Have stamped a few images and have been colouring in, so hopefully will manage to make a few cards this week.

Right am off to blog hop and try and catch up

Hello all :j
Actually got round to making grandsons birthday card today (thanks to rainmac for images :T) Seemed to take me ages to decide on colours, design etc. -shows how long its been since I made any cards............anyway it's done now and I'm pleased with it.........even got OH's approval..........lol:rotfl:

Hope you're all ok and hugs ((((:o)))) to those who need them.

Oh - on Wednesday can you do the 'knickers (or something) inside out' for OH.?..........we're off to see the boffin again -fingers crossed things are ok.
He's certainly a lot better but not quite as he should be.

Hi All
Hope everyone is ok, trying to keep up with this forum takes alot a effort! So bear with me as I get used to it. I have been looking at all your blogs and they are brilliant. I might even have to consider sorting one out for myself soon!

I was speaking to OH today and he said I should buy a die cutting machine if I want one! So I need to research which one is best before he changes his mind! Has anyone got any suggestions as to which ones are better, and which die cuts are the best shapes to buy to start with. I was planning on spending about £60 on the machine, not sure if thats enough or not, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ooohhh what a lovely OH you have!!! I've recently bought the Big Shot for £50 from Capture the Magic, p&p was free. I've only used it a few times so far and only for cutting but I love it already as it is so blinking easy to use, no effort needed to cut really.
