I've broken my Cuttlebug !!!!!!! ... only used it three times - Went to Ally Pally especially to buy embossing folders and cutting dies because I only
had the ones that came with it. Oh and myself spent a fortune on the things including the black mat thingy so that I can use my thin brass embossing thingies!!
Arrived home all excited, tried the embossing folders and dies and then tried the mat with some of my brass things. Used C instead of D Staggered them and OK for the first try - a little hard to turn but I was told to expect that. Tried another very hard to turn Handle _ I have arthritus in my hands so just thaught I was being a bit weak. OH gave it a turn and BANG............. The side of the Cuttlebug shot accross the dining room like a bullitt, dog shot into the conservatory and cat shot over and behind the sofa - and OH shouted that wasn't me!!!!! it must be faulty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. (image of him as a small child having done something wrong came to mind) Lucky no one was standing in the way, (have you had an accident that wasn't your fault) also came to mind, imagine telling the judge that you shot your best friend with a Cuttlebug!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well have sent it back and will have to be patient (Joanna do you still have wizards in your shop).
I feel much better now
thanks for reading
