I've just noticed an email from Cowling and Wilcox saying they have a sale on until 2nd May. They've got Promarkers and Tria Markers going cheap if anyone is looking for any.

Plus they always have a free postage offer on with Making Cards magazine and even if you don't buy it the code is usually on the back cover. I think the current one is MAK411. If it's not 4 it will be 5

Not sure I like it? ... doesn't look like the hole is that big, not sure who stocks it locally to see if I could have a look at it, plus its pink LOL ... ok so reddy pink! think I might need to look at some more info about it!

You can cut 12" wide on a Grand Calibur. They keep showing it on C&C

I could be wrong, In fact I probably am. I could be thinking about the Cricut machine - I'm a little addled tonight. I think the Sizzix pro might do 12". But then I might be making that up too. Pay no attention to me, I'm rambling.

But what I'm definitely not making up is that Ideal World have a 2 Cricut PODx - one is a machine, the other is 3 cartridges for less than £80

Right I have a problem... I broke my new cuttlebug! it is being picked up by the courier tomorrow and hopefully if she sticks to her word she will be refunding in full! but that then leaves me cuttlebugless!! so I don't know wether to go for a wizard, a big shot, or the old version cuttlebug!! any suggestions? If I change from a cuttlebug I will have some extended plates to sell which I only picked up in Feb! Any suggestions?

Also any suggestions to the best place to sell my craft robo? It has barely been used (10 times max!!) comes with the original mat, think I still have the box for it aswell, and comes with all cables, I think it is still under guarantee aswell and is the newer version! Also comes with a brand new blade!

sorry snipped!

Not had much luck have you? I suppose it depends on how much space you have, at least you know the Cuttlebug folds up. I sometimes wish I had bought the Big Shot. Its the same with the Craft Robo, you really need somewhere to have it out all the time so that it does get used, I dont think I wold use mine if I had it in the cupboard. Saying that when I do use it I usually cut loads at once, just lately its all been in white card and then I can colour it to match with a promarker. I hope you manage to sell it at a good price.
