We will always have Paris, part #1

The desk looks very much like last week and the big metal heart still isn't on the wall. Here is what lies in the current project pile.

There are 2 separate and very different Parisian projects on there brought on by the fact that there are lots of nice supplies around at the moment. The remains of a couple of past projects are there too. The Wonky candy is till intact, don't know how long that will last, and the remains of a Christmas project which I have sent off and can't share yet.

In a previous WOYWW several people (well at least 2) asked me to report back on how I got on with these dies.

They have worked very well and combined with the excellent price I would highly recommend them. The 'sandwich' for the Big Shot/Kick which I use is (from bottom to top) -

• Tab 2 of the universal whatsit (that's completely closed).
• Cutting plate (with or without a sticky magnetic sheet, it works with both)
• Die - cutting side up
• Paper/card right side down
• Cutting plate

I'm not a cuttlebug user but my forum friend Kath has advised (I don't speak Cuttlebug so I hope it makes sense) -

Plates A and C. Lay the die on top with the cutting edge up. Lay paper face down onto the die. Cover with plate B. Run through CB.

To emboss.........Plates A and C and leave die and paper in place. Cover with foam mat, then plate B. Turn through machine.

That leaves me with 2 new projects to play with.
