Have the Doodle TAG uppercase. fancy anothe alpha for sizzix or tagalong. Need it to be smaller than the doodle- less than 3/4 of an inch. for writing on cards.

Are the QK ones up to much. Any recommendations PURLEAES

Pixie, do you fancy an alpha swap?

I would love to have some Doodle tags and I have GAW sizzlits and pigeon toed uppercase for you to try out. Might help you decide what to buy.

I have doodle block. I have just checked and they are 1 inch (i.e. b's, d's etc, the others are smaller). With these you can also use the outline though some letters are better than others, i.e. n works better than o. I am happy to send you some if you would like to see them in the flesh.

I am about to order Girls are weird. JM tells me that the caps are 2cm high. I have funky brush but they are huge and no good for names like Henrietta on an A5 card

Dingle- yes would love that. Would love to see the GAW. What do you think we cut? How many letters or specific words perhaps for now?

UCM mentioned on the other thread about supplying your own card or paper. How do you feel about this,I am happy to use my own as long as I have the type/colour you want and visa versa.

I think for now, it would be good to cut just specific words that we can use in our work, but I am happy whatever!

At the moment i only want to see the letters for size so would rather just do a straight swap for now. If I wanted a lot of words or something then maybe swapping card/paper would be suitable.

You have my email addy don't you Dingle? Email me what you wnat and address and i'll tell you if I have the card /colour to do it. That way we can keep postage etc down

How does it cut? i found the QC generally to be fiddly. Is it one die per letter?

some of the dies are 2 plates and more and then you have to assemble the bits. Very fiddly. Don't fancy that with the alpha
