some advice from you experts please!!!

The other day I was at a coffee morning at school and we made some gift bags decorated with Christmas things

Think I have this right? Are they called Die cuts? There was a snowman, fairy etc etc

I thought it may be a good idea to get a machine (the lady had this big thing with a lever she pulled down) as my DD's age 5 do a lot of crafts and I thought I would be able to cut out lots of things for them to use

Had a quick look on E Bay and the cutters were the cheapest £25 plus a lot of P&P

Are they all that dear? Can I get a cheap one from somewhere? It is only for me to nake shapes for my 5 year olds, I am not selling cards!!!

Thanks so much for any idea's

lol lol lol

Have just seen another thread about die cutters

My £25 seems cheap lol lol

(was about £15 P&P though!!!!!!)

I just thought there might of been a really cheap version (£15!!!!! [grin} as it is not for anything important. Doesn't have to be the best

Never mind!!!!!!!!!

anniebear- if you're just doing it for the kids then it would be cheaper in the long run to buy packs of die cuts off ebay.

As well as the machine you ned the actual die to cut with and these cost between 6 and 14 pounds

thanks

yes I realised they were quite expensive

saw some yesterday at a craft shop
