    Padster - I often think rubber lasts longer than clear, but that could just be me :P I like clear cause you can see what you are doing ...

    Rainmac - :wave: not seen you in ages :D

    Madfrog - Nooo my Dad lives out in Bulgaria and already has 2 cows, several pigs, lots of chickens, ducks, geese, goats and sheep :D but when we went out in April DD fell in love with Dillon (one of the cows) and my dad has bought 3 new ones, 2 of which he has said are for the kiddies so they have their own but will obviously be looked after out there :D
    As for storing nesties I use a CD wallet and have trimmed small squares of magnet and they all sit in a different section, sometimes 2 if needed. I can take a photo if you like?

    CraftyLouise - Thanks :D

    Mad Frog - :wave: I haven't got a lot of nesties/dies and I tried the magnetic sheet thing but had to fight to get it to release them. So now I have an old style box file and they are all just laid in there (sometimes on the magnetic sheet but more often not)! I keep it flat instead of upright. So I guess the short answer is in a box!

    Hello,
    I wonder if anyone could answer my query....?
    Is there an easy way to guilotine 50 sheets of a4 card quickly.
    I have a Woodware red trimmer which does it's job and cuts 1 ( maybe2) sheets at once, however I want to cut sheets en mass to make wedding invites. Suggestions welcome, please
    Thanks

    :eek:Shock! Horror!:eek: I actually set out to make a card today!!

    Sadly, I was thwarted by my printer refusing to release the yellow ink so the Kraft paper came out two lovely shades purple even after a morning spent faffing. The firm I used for my printer cartridge are sending me a replacement so here's hoping there'll be something to show for it before the end of the week.

    Kim Possible - sorry I can't help - I use the same cutter as you. Do you have a printers near to you who could use one of their cutters? It would take them seconds but obviously may charge a set up fee.
