Having a Sizzix Day...

Morning folks...yes I know it's Sunday...supposedly a day of rest but when you've fallen way behind with the crafty list...it's just another day like any other for the cubbyhole crew. No lounging around on the sofa for me today with the Sunday crosswords and the Furry Boy is missing out on his usual Sunday morning pamper treatment...it's all hands to the pump for a day of die cutting with the goodies that arrived from Sizzix...but first and there's always a but isn't there...the task of unpacking...labelling and recycling all that fabulous thick acetate packaging...great to use with your embossing folders and my trusty Fiskars scissors will make light work of it all...chopping through it like a knife through butter.
all we need now is lots of inspiration...time to kick Mr Mojo out of bed and invite him to join the party.
But I can hardly be expected to put my best foot forward whilst I'm hobbling around with two left feet...oh yes the phantom slipper nabber has been at work again...not the best start to anybody's day...so THE HUNT is on.
Don't forget you have until 8pm tonight to put your name in the hat for The Furry Boy's Give-Away....he'll be joining you tomorrow to reveal the winner and no doubt throwing his tuppence worth into the pot and still loads of time to get creative and enter this month's challenge over at Penny Black Saturday.
See you all soon
Hugs Kath xxx

  2. ...looks like Sizzix is reigning in the Cubbyhole, can't wait to see the developments once you've stopped going round in circles with those slippers on...have a great day, Buddy is probably glad there is no sign of the Furminator coming his way!...Mel :)

  3. Oh Kath your 2 left slippers made me laugh out loud! Perhaps Buddy is miffed that there's no sign of the furminator today! Enjoy the sizzix goodies.

  4. Now Buddy - you really have to learn that one right & one left make a pair.....no not that fruity thing called a pear but a PAIR. A PAIR means two things that go together like Left & Right. Now Mum has two (yes that means she needs a PAIR) feet but they're not the same one is Left & the Right so she needs a Left slipper for the Left foot & a Right Slipper for the Right foot. Got it?

  6. I'm so enjoying reading your posts since WOYWW last week, Kath - you've got a wonderful turn of phrase tht makes me laugh! Two left feet - well really! Seen it all now, I think lol!!! and Midden? Wot?? Doesn't look too bad to me!

    All your fabby goodies, and all that gorgeous thick acetate - I've got a big box of it because I can't bear to throw it out either!

    What fun at the workshop. I'm envious! You do some great work. Think I'll sign up as a follower because I've really enjoyed my little read this a.m.! Keep up the good work.

    Thanks for your lovely comment - yes, I'm having great fun with the flowers. I had a suggestion last night that I should combine it with the faux porcelain effect so I'm going to try making some porcelain flowers! Watch this (or should that be "that") space!

  9. Hope you had a fun day die-cutting. Looking forward to seeing the results.

    Lucky you've got 2 slippers even if they're both left. Max loves boots, shoes, slippers and socks. Sometimes manages to steal both!
