Tippy Thursday - Sizzix Bigz XL dies

I have been asked by BJ 
"Ikki, couldn't find anywhere else to ask but do you know if the Sizzix Bigz XL dies will go through the Cuttlebug? I know the Bigz ones do both ways round (sandwiched with 2 'B' plates only) so am hoping the XL ones will too. Thanks BJ "

I afraid I do not have any experience using this type of die, but I've done a search and found the subject is covered by a blog called Indigoinklings - here is the  link

From what Jay says in her article the answer is yes, but you will need to make adjustments because the cutting plates are not big enough.  There is a tutorial which will show you how these adjustments can be made.

 

Stamping Ground WOYWW

Hi, old friends, I was thinking this morning surely it's not Wednesday already!!! Where does the time go?  AND, then the thought occured to me that I'd not been over to WOYWW for a long long time so to put that right I popped over to SG and immediately it felt like home seeing Julia desk sitting there as I remember it!  I just love this woman's organization skills - a crafter after my own heart!  Well done Julia for keeping WOYWW going - I'm so pleased that you're still there and that you have so many loyal followers who do visit you regularly. 

My desk is quite tidy today since my crafting mojo has gone walkabouts, but when the postie delivered a parcel the contents did get quickly unwrapped, fondled and then photographed.

These are just lovely gems - great colours - nice quality and a good buy from the sale at Beads Direct.

This is what I'm spending my pennies (read pounds) on at the moment, and I'm thinking of opening a new page in the Cupboard to feature beading which seems to be catching the attention of many.  I love my beads and I think I now have the biggest stash of necklaces, bracelets and earrings than anyone on the planet! 

Thanks for dropping by - hope you are all well - I'll try to catch up asap.
