Lovely to see you, skiergirl. :wave:

Take your pick as the Big Shot should cut just about everything except the Spellbinders Grand Calibur dies (it will cut one or two of the smaller ones but a bit of a waste of £30 odd pounds a set.

Check out Craftsulove web site here loads to choose from. Let us know what sort of shapes you like as there's often a bargain somewhere. Check out Ebay too.

I was thinking of starting with maybe circles - I lnow some of you use the scalloped ones, do they fit with plain circles ?

Thanks x

They certainly do, they layer up lovely as do the squares, ovals and rectangles. All of these are good standby's when using the more fancy dies for Spellbinders.

I've taken a break from making Christmas cards to make a birthday card and put it on blob. For once it is very MSE!! When I was going through post wedding stuff I realised that I had some packaging that would actually be really great for making cards. Partly because they are made to match and partly because they would be good for male cards. I've basically used a Beaverbrooks bag and tissue paper to make the card.

I'm trying desperately not to take too much notice of die cutting machines as I really really want one!!

Lovely to hear all about everyones makes.
