Hello all :)
Well, both Mel and I have been overwhelmed by, and grateful for, the positive feedback from the Brother Scan N Cut shows on Create and Craft TV however there have been a lot of frequently asked questions asking for more information.

Following on from yesterday’s blog post about the Brother Scan N Cut machine, here is a little more information about the “Direct Scan” function which takes your printed or hand drawn images and converts them into cutting files.
As the countdown to the launch of the Brother Scan N Cut machine on Create and Craft TV continues I thought that I would dedicate a couple of blog posts to having a little delve into some of the more unique features of this machine in order to help you understand how the process works and how simple it is to do.

I found out some exciting news a few weeks back and have been sworn to secrecy – until now!

So, I was wandering around the Hobbycrafts show at the NEC a while back when I bumped into Lynda Chapman, she immediately reached up, yanked a CD ROM from her display, thrust it towards me and told me that I would love it.
The CD ROM in question was the “Here Comes The Girls Brights and Lights” collection.
Apparently it was true – I did love it!
Some time ago I was privileged enough to produce the first ever show featuring Pollyanna Pickering, her stunning artwork, and the fantastic DVD ROM from Creative Crafting World.
Of course I got myself a copy but haven’t really done anything with it until now.
Halloween is just once a year and therefore I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to break out the craft stash and make a little something.
I’ve occasionally muted ideas of how to use the Cricut electronic cutting machines for cutting apertures for techniques such as Iris Folding so this post is dedicated to that concept.Read More »

I am really getting into digi-stamps lately and have been searching for more complex designs to have a go at. When I came across a Mushroom House Digi Stamp from an Australian company called Make It Crafty I thought that I would give it a go.
