Ohhh Hello!! Glad someone is on here I can chat too. Yes it's the Paperarts one. Can you tell me if you have a cutting machine if so which one. I am in a dilemma as to whether to go for a big shot, slice or cuttlebug!!!

Hi
I'm not going to the retreat, but in answer to your other question I have a Big Shot which I've had for three years now and I'm very happy with it. I used it a lot in my scrapbooing as well as card making, the alphabets are great for making page titles in just the right size and colour, also saving you pounds not buying them and ending up with lots of half used sheets of useless letters.
Have you been scrapping long, I've never done a retreat but often thought about it!

I can second the Bigshot, have never used any of the others you mention though. I do love my die cutting
I enjoy retreats, spending the weekend just crafting is wonderful, a chance to catch up with people who understand why I need more stamps

I have a bigshot, grand calibur and ebosser, the bigshot is my main go to machine every single time and I only use the others when I need to cut a4. I'd love to go on a retreat but hubby works weekends
