I'm planning to play. But I'm about ready to throw my old Sizzix out the window. I've been wanting a Cuttlebug for a while and the past week has convinced me to just do it.

:bump: Just a reminder if you're playing this month. These should probably be in the mail by Friday so they get here by Tuesday.

So far, I have mine, Paula's and Nancy's. Diana's are in progress. Anyone else playing?

I hope to. What I did over the weekend was not turning out as I'd hoped, so it's back to the drawing board.

I have plans to do cards tonight, assuming that the weather clears up so DH can be out of the house flying R/C airplanes with his buddies. Embossing is one of the easiest things to do, so I really have no excuse for not doing this. ;)

I got two finished up last night, should get the other two done tonight. Then I just need to find envelopes and drop 'em all in the mail tomorrow morning.

And I'm (FINALLY!) using some of Papillon for the cards. Was not inspired by this kit, but I figure cards are a good way to use up the paper, right? ;)
