mommy2mrb · 10-03-2012, 11:14 AM

here are my last 4 groups....some of the pieces are not attached due to there sizes...I had some issues on what to do for "family fun" and "hanging out" hope they will work for everyone!

Shawna, I will let you know when I mail these...probably won't be for a couple weeks.

I got two cut then my machine started chewing up paper

But DH is working Sunday am so I'll aim to cut the rest then

Lisa those are very cute.
I started to design my letters yesterday while at the hospital with our youngest DD this week and will probably cut most of it this weekend since she's coming home today

Too bad I hadn't thought of wifi before yesterday. Days were kinda long when she was sleeping and I was staring at the ceiling in there

Talking of cutting letters, am I the only one who has trouble cutting Bazzill paper. I find it never cuts smooth regarless of the blade unless it's just a simple shape. Every time I use it to cut a princess I waste more paper then what I use. It keeps ripping

thanks!
happy to hear your DD is coming home!
I have problems with bazzill sometimes too, is always a guessing game on what settings to use for me, know there is a link out there somewhere with all the different settings for different papers.

Hope your DD is doing better!

I have a free morning, so I going to get moving on these now. So glad to have some time to play today!

MazdaUK · 10-08-2012, 01:12 PM

my Xyron is a regular PITA

Even with a new mat it quite often skids the paper and chews things up

I can't get it to use Bazzil at all unless its the smooth stuff. Cut 2 more groups, will work on the rest later this week hopefully.

I did have some fun with glitter - then less fun as it didn't stick evenly. Still, I think a little green glittter is nice on a steak

Bazzill is such a pain to cut with my cricut. I guess Bazzill is not made to be cut with machines.

I never use to have that problem before.

MazdaUK · 10-10-2012, 11:45 AM

Cut another group - but my Xyrn is having a hissy fit and keeps cuting the letters all weird

I got one more group cut Monday then had to stop as that took 2 hours just to get 5 letters cut

Yes, 5 letters and no shadows.

mommy2mrb · 10-10-2012, 12:15 PM

Shawna, I will be postal this afternoon, including the element swap with it!

MazdaUK · 10-13-2012, 09:51 AM

FINALLY all cut out

Now to gussie them up

MazdaUK · 10-22-2012, 10:59 AM

All done! I'll try to persuade Dh to mail tomorrow for me

I think I'm going to chuck my Xyron cutter. its such a PITA. But then no more letter swaps

DisneyBarlans · 10-24-2012, 07:25 AM

My letters are all designed, will be working on cutting & assembly this weekend!!

It's funny you mention about the Bazzill paper. I haven't used a ton of it as I usually just get the single pieces of Recollections brand at Michaels. I did order a bunch of Bazzill from Oh My Crafts from their retired colors special. Not only were most of the colors really ugly, but I'm having a terrible time cutting with it even with a new blade. Had to cut the same title 4 times last night to get a clean piece. Thought it was my machine, but maybe not?

MazdaUK · 10-27-2012, 03:11 AM

Ergh to getting ugly colours which don't cut

DH did mail mine so hopefully they'll be arriving soon! I did take pics so will upload when I have a minute.

ETA here's the pics

Shawna, I've got a horrid feeling I messed up - I did C instead of O for School

I'm soooo sorry - such a flake these days, must be my age

MazdaUK · 11-04-2012, 03:19 AM

Did my parcel make it OK?
