Monday meanerings: the card edition

I was thinking about what to post today and decided not to tell you about Charlie getting his head stuck in his potty ring over the weekend. Or the fact that he was outside yesterday, following our lawn man around and so happened to be naked from the waist down. No. You don't wanna know about that.

Instead, I'm going to show you what I did over the weekend. Here's a hint:

I've been waiting 6 months to get my hands of this baby. You can find them here. I also have two coupons for free shipping on them (US residents only) for the first two people who are interested in getting one for themselves.

Enabler. That's what I am...

Anyway, I got busy making cards.

 

Here's one using the ink:

And some without using any ink at all, just letterpressing:

I love the look of them. SO classic.

Of course I had to make a Charlie Says What card (no letterpressing here): click to see larger

For those of you who are local, just wanted to let you know that Computer Surgeons will be carrying some of my cards in the very near future.

:)

Have a great Monday, y'all!

I have been trying to decide which die cutting machine to get, as I want some dies that are large enough to make pages for mini albums. (I don't think I want an electric one or one that is computer based.) Does this machine do both die cutting and letterpress? Do you like it?

If you have a die cutting machine, do you like it? Would you recommend it to someone or is there another one you wish you had chosen instead?

Thanks for any advice you might have!

hi monika, the only other die cutting tool i have is the quickutz squeeze. you can only use the 2x2" dies with those. with the epic six, you can use dies up to 6x12" so all my little letter dies can be used as well with my new one. the epic 6 can also emboss as well. i think if you get on youtube.com and punch in epic 6, it'll show you all the wonderful things you can do with the machine.
i have a few friends who have the cricut and silhouette and they love it but i'm old fashioned and like to hand crank :)

OOOH, how gorgeous are these??? I've been dying for one of these as well. Enabler. :P

[Elana & Roland Geyrozaga]

By any chance do you still have any free shipping coupons? I'd love one of these for my birthday next month.
