    Another beauty Tina. Your embossing is always so crisp. I had to take my GC. Back to Hobby craft today , is just wasn't cutting it's like the pressure of the rollovers had gone, and seeing how it's not even 8months old it's not good. They couldn't give me a replacement it has to go to be looked at. I can see me buying something else if they only repair it. I will wait and see. So no play time after all not a bad thing as I need to do some serious sorting out. Hazel xx

      Hi Hazel, I never really got on with the GC and it let me down big time and broke in less than a year. I then purchased a Joy Trouvaille which cuts like butter. Paul then bought me an eBosser which I love, but does'nt always cut through 1st time, but still good. I bought my daughter a Spellbinder Artisan X-Plorer. What a meaty little machine this is. Claire has left it with me until she set's up her work room, but I feel I will have to buy her a new one, as I use it for all the flower dies as you can pass it through quicker than the eBosser, so I have a couple of machines going at one time. I'll be really sad to see this little machine go. Hey HO!!! I hope you get something sorted soon, it's something crafters can't do without.

      How Is Christopher doing?

      Ha ha Tina, I had a small blue butterfly done a few years ago, & it stated to look like a blue blob,
      So 3 years ago went on holiday to Spain & hubby said as we past tattoo shop see if you can have a bigger one to cover it
      So I did but after two days my ankle swelled up was red hot but as we were going home the day after I left it & when I did get back went doctors he said at my age I should have known better not to get one abroad,I had a bad infection.so that will teach me never again lol Hugs Lynda xx

    Hi Tina. Whoop whoop another Tina special at last : )
    Wish I could make them as beautiful as your's. Sorry if this sounds selfish to all sun worshipers, but id love maybe 3 days of rain as hubby feels a prisioner indoors when its so beautiful, yes I can understand that, but I have quite a few cards I need to make ready for market this Sunday, but feel guilty id I let it take priority over taking the dog out to various shaded woods/country parks, so I get as many as I can done after breakfast then a little bit of lunch, then 'drag' myself out for a couple of hour's then back into my little room, prep dinner, craft if a warm dinner (such as chicken drumsticks to go with cold) so ehilst they are cooking I craft a bit more, eat, and while hubby is washing up I pinch another half hour crafting ! Its my own fault as I decided to do a bunch of 6x6 cards for newly weds to give to best men/ushers/maids of honour bla bla bla ! Lets say ive just opened my 2nd pack of 25 cellobags !!! And not all cards have been made with the help of Google wedding images, so Ive been stamping a lot (and not just on my cards) lol.
    Ok Ive rambled enough now so I'll say tarra and... Next please Tina : )

    Hugs to all.

      Hi Patricia

      They are mental, 4.30am their alarm clock goes off, and they are running around the bedroom like lunatics. The bags under my eyes are getting bigger by the day, but I love em and forgive em. They are still in our room because it is taking a bit of time to mingle with our cat, Moet, taking it slowly but getting there. Summer is so laid back about the 2 monsters, at 171/2 cat yrs she's just too old to care, bless her.( lovely nature ). Thank you for asking. X

    Good to here that your little kittens are doing well, they are so much fun at that age, though perhaps not at 4am, take care Tina, hugs Kate x

      No, It's called our bedroom, but I'm seriously thinking of it though, but I would miss bubble sleeping in the crook of my back and Squeak in the crook of my knee. The problem occurs when I need to turn over, and then they wake up too, but they are so gorgeous I can forgive them anything, they just come up to my face for a cuddle, but I think they are as knackered as I am and have a mad run around for about 20 mins and then they sleep until 4.00-4.30am.Bring it on I love it, they are so special.I only gave them a home, but they don't realize they give me a lot more, bless em!! Thanks Ang
