What a Day !!!!!

Morning folks....well not a lot to share today...yesterday turned into a bit of a disaster but good old First Scotrail didn't let me down...tickets for Glasgow arrived at 7.00am this morning....just need to put them in a safe place now....well that is a safe place that I will remember and I got all my paperwork and computer stuff done and dusted...here was me thinking I was on a roll now...will get my DT stuff for this week in the bag in record time BUT that is where it all went pear shaped...would you believe that Mr Mojo has decided to take off again...goodness knows where and don't know when the blighter will be back...let's not panic I thought...forget about the DT stuff until tomorrow and make a Christmas Card or two...well even that was a complete disaster...had lots of ideas in my head but blimey could I transfer them to a card...card after card ended up in the bin...eventually I did end up with one but not entirely happy with it...it needs something and to be honest right this minute..I couldn't even hazard a guess at what...if my life depended on it...will leave it lying for a few days and maybe one of those magic moments will happen but come what may it will be added to the festive pile.
Paper: Making Memories...Mistletoe Collection

Gold Self Adhesive Gems

"The Budster" and I are about to set out on our search and rescue duties...fingers crossed we find the runaway and normal service is resumed at the cubbyhole...catch up with you all tomorrow for Sneeky Peek Thursday hopefully.
Oops nearly forgot I have some questions to answer......
Debby asked about using the Sizzix Texturz plates in the Cuttlebug...now numptie here can't find the YouTube video that I watched but I did manage to find something just as good HERE. To use the plates with your Cuttlebug you do need the Sizzix Impressions Pad and a silicone rubber mat and they recommend that you use card shims to get a good impression...I used 2 sheets of 300gsm cardstock and it worked perfectly.
Steph asked where I buy my Martha Stewart Punches...one I bought from the Martha Stewart website and that is a whole other story which I'm sure Dawny P and I will never forget but that's getting off the point.
The others I got from my local crafty shop....Simply Create but they don't have a website...I had a little browse...DIES TO DIE FOR and CRAFTS U LOVE are two that I found but if anyone knows anywhere else...eave a comment here or send me an e-mail and I will pass the info onto Steph....I know you won't let us down...all you super duper crafter shoppers out there.
