My wonderful hubby surprised me with the best bday gift ever!! He got me a Cuttlebug! *Bouncing up and down!!!* I asked him, "How did you ever know?!!!" and he replied, "Oh I don't know! Must have been the 40 times you mentioned wanting one!" LOL He is too good to me! He didn't get any dies because he wasn't sure how to shop for those, but we are heading to town tomorrow and I am going to peruse the die aisle!! : ) I cannot wait to play with it!! If anyone has any comments or suggestions for using it...please share! :)
Yay, a 'bug!! I have the Bigshot, but the bug is so much cuter! Enjoy it and Happy Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
ReplyDeleteI've seen people do envelopes to match their cards; that looks gorgeous. And most people brush colour over top of the raised images(adding white craft ink that way looks stunning yet not too high contrast--here's a neat link for Ink Blog where Nichole uses watercolouring in the low areas:)
