Sizzix alphabets!!

66 replies

DingleBells · 03/12/2005 20:01

Trying to justify Santa spending out £65 on Girls are weird..or similar! Can anyone who has a sizzix alphabet (whatever one) cut me a few letters. I just want to see them in the flesh IYSWIM, before I make my mind up. Willing to pay or swap.

Thank you.

Aww JM, would you- you are an angel. Not too fussed about colours although I am into pinks/reds/burgundy.....well anything really!
Would you be able to just cut a few words, NOEL, LOVE,PEACE,MUM...DAD..not all of those just o give you an idea of what I mean.

What would you like for them?

Great JM, I have a few orders I need to get sorted first. Do you need them for a certain date? I'll make them up ASAP for you.

BIG thank you.

oooo...ooo....so many choices now..let me have a look and I'll get back to you!

If I sample too many I might really confuse myself (doesn't take much)and want them all!

Thank you ladies, I get back to you here.

Right, been looking at sizzix.com[greed]and...

yes could I try the others too please...pwetty please.

No rush at all, I think if I get any,I will end up with GAW but it would be great to sample some of the other too!

Yorkiegirl...what doodlebars have you got?
I have had a look and I am unsure, love some of the tag ones and the pidgeon toed charms!

UCM, Champs and YG if you are willing to cut me a few at some stage please let me know what you would like in return..and I will try to pe prepared...ha ha ha..(big sarcastic belly laugh!)

i reckon you sizzix owners could do very well becoming OUR suppliers!!!!

I want a sizzix...mainly for alphabets...then i discovered how expensive the alphabets actually are...and i cannot justify it at the mo!!!

MrsFrostgetful · 04/12/2005 11:22

i meant to say... i'd willingly pay per letter ... .... any offers to suppy me???
if you don't to put a price on here please email me....

recently i got some gorgeous 3d layers sizzix/quikuts snowflakes off ebay...got some more as they were so lovely... i think in the end i paid less than £5 for about 30...well pleased....as she had used a brad to connect all the pieces for each flake together... all i had to do was glitter them myself...

so what i'm saying is it would be fantastic if those of you who are willing and able could list "dies we would die for".....and what would cover your costs (or like J'sM said..in her case she has asked for something she knows the mnetter can make as a swap....)

MrsF, I would be more than happy to supply you with shapes now and after Father Christmas has been I can do Girls are weird lettering!
Swaps or payment...doesn't bother me...I just love using my sizzix. It's so easy to just set up of an evening. Rather than get loads of different bits out to make a card from start to finish, all I need is my machine a few dies and an assortment of card. I have a nice little supply of cuts now and I am having fun sorting out a storage system for them!
I have some of my die shapes/swaps in the swap folder on Yahoo. Just shout if you are interested.

They look fun YG, have you got upper and lower caes? How big are they, I couldn't see dimensions?

Could I have a few cuts at some time. No rush, just seeing what else is out there really.

If so what would you like in return?
