It's awesome, and love it lots. Clever girl you. Also many thanks for all the swirly tree tips. Most helpful and 'preciate the time taken to think & write 'em here for us. Now what did I miss about the looking at the feet bit? Hope you are not sick, or under the weather.

Thank goodness it didn't happen while you were on your wonderful holiday. I pray that it settles down where it belongs very quickly!<br /><br />Secondly, your "remake" of one of Len's cards, while prolly not worth the pain, is stunning! But please don't use the word cannibalize to refer to one of your lovely works of art! That's just wrong.<br /><br />Thirdly, thank you for the tute on how you made that exquisite tree and all the extra tips you provided - again, especially since it hurts to sit and type! I definitely did not gather that it was two different dies and now I fully get the picture ... and a couple of additions to the Wish Book!<br /><br />Take it easy, please, little one. If you need to skip the Playground write-up, please do so. We all love you and would totally understand if you just skipped this week! Mwah!

The shades of blue with gentle pops of colour...swoon! Gorgeous! Now your tips about how to navigate (since we're on a bit of a nautical theme here) around this die: how awesome! You've dedicated time, energy, thoughtfulness AND great advice about the 'what to do' associated with this swirly tree companion set. In fact, I almost 'want' to order one, just to try out your suggestions (sitting on my hands so as not to!). Have I mentioned what an awesome place your blog is??

A lot of the MB dies are very intricate I think that's part of their appeal, but it does make them tricky to cut. MB have their own metal shim plate that's very thin, and they recommend using this. I don't have one but could do with one! Perhaps Andrew can cut me something from thin metal, if not, I'll be investing in one soon!<br /><br />Hugs<br />BrendaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6641751363324030551.post-27970420176419823332013-11-15T13:12:08.149+00:002013-11-15T13:12:08.149+00:00Hello Miss.

Sorry your back is still giving you gip but that means that we can be even naughtier as you cannot catch us! <br />Lovely recycling - cannot spell cannibalisation, and yes I agree with Mo - bottom line marketing!
