oooh another thing i wanted to ask - does anyone have a cuttlebug and are they any good??! (or know of anywhere with cuttlebugs on offer) i reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally want one - i love the 'swiss dots' embossing folder or does anyone know another way i can get this effect?
HELP ME!

Yes, I have a cuttlebug and it is lovely!! I just love the embossing folder. Came back from holiday last night and my sister and I have used her cuttlebug and our combined diecuts and embossing folder until the wee hours in the morning... I don't think I have the swiss dots. I do have small circles and various other things. Just let me know if I can help further.
Trying to catch up on my favourite thread, gosh you have been busy..

:T :T for our now famous Polly, you go girl, in a magazine and everything, wow, I am very proud of you.

I am going to read, I will be back soon

Afternoon all,

I found a great idea to [STRIKE]steal[/STRIKE] "take inspiration from" for envelopes (I find plain white ones too boring).

Thought some of you crafty types might be interested so heres the link:

Wow, great cards everyone, and well done to you Rainmac for getting the job, Do you have to follow her designs or plans or do you have free reign? sounds really exciting.

Remember the special offer for the magazine subscription £1 for 3 months. Has anyone heard? I haven't got the magazine or the free gift yet. The money has been taken out of my account. Hope it wasn't a scam.

I have come home from holiday with a bag full of craft goodies, ribbon and new cuttlebug stuff, scrapbook paper and my mother gave me lots of punches she didn't want anymore, luckily I didn't go over the luggage allowance. I can't wait to get stuck into the cardmaking here again but will have to do the washing/unpacking first, and sorting out all my new stuff and find room for it all.

It is great to be back with you all. Your cards are all so lovely.
