WOYWW 211

This week, I've been using my Bigkick machine to die cut some letters for DH's RC model heli - he has only just realised the necessity of owning a diecutting machine (the one he 'bought' me for Christmas - well I just ordered it of course!!) I think he has been getting a bit carried away with all this G8 stuff going on here - its been a constant stream of helicopters for the last two days!  This one hasn't actually flown yet as there has been an exclusion zone in force - maybe tomorrow it will be allowed - we really don't want to risk it getting shot down by one of President Obama's hawks! Anyway he will add it to his collection - it's a bit like us crafters with new paper - you just like to look at it - but not so keen on actually using it!  Maybe everyone else will have some more normal craftiness on their desks this week - just have a look on Julia's blog HERE.

  1. How great you got to use your die cutting machine to do his letters.... I recently had to use mine for hubby to...... They then realise why we need such things !!!!!

  2. I'm kinda sorry I don't have a helicopter on my desk this one looks pretty cool. I had to laugh at your comment about just looking at the pretty paper - so true! Hope you both have a great week ahead!

  3. Great post Bernice!!! That lettering looks fab. I definitely think hubby should respect that no fly zone! Can you imagine - we would be seeing you on the news ;-) A famous or should that be infamous WOYWWer. Happy WOYWW to you from Helen 78

  8. See, cross contaminating our nerdiness here, by admiring the modelling, and then totally understanding the die cutting..worth the cost after all!! ope the G8 bods arent putting you out too much, bet the security is fierce.

  10. Oh, that's hard luck to have such a beautiful new whizzy toy....and then not be ble to fly it because of some foreign dudes having a shindig in your neighbourhood! First time I've seen a helicopter on anyone's desk!! LOL

  11. It's good to see you put your die cutter to good use. And I love the helicopter. Some things catch my eye more than others, and this is definitely one of them. Have a super slightly late WOYWW from #17.
