I've followed a few people's blogs which have lots of interesting ideas. I just need to learn how to do things now which is where I'm hoping y0utube might help!

You tube helps a lot. If you can resist buying I found create and craft tv helped when I started. They do demos and it helps you work out what things are called to help then search on you tube.

having a good clear out of my craft stash and writing a list of what I need. has anyone got a die cutting machine. I have a big shot but thinking I need something to do different size alphabet and numbers any thoughts.

plan to make more cards and possibly sell some going to try and make a JLS one for dd. then must start next years xmas cards going through old cards to make gift tags

Just had a lovely afternoon recycling all my Christmas cards into gift tags for next year. I too have a massive stash of craft stuff and this years resolution is to use up rather than buy any more.

However I am really thrilled with the second hand Cricut machine that my husband bought me for a Christmas present.:D

thanks for this

do they cut different alphabets in different sizes. thats the main thing im after great if it does more. i did think about a slice but not sure its really what im after are there different types

its not something you can rush into i think to buy the alphabet for the big shot would be expensive and i would only have the one size

have been sorting out all my papers tonight may take a while but needs to be done
