whats its called?

[MerlinsBeard]

u knw that thingy that has the alphabet on and makes strips of embossed letters for labels. its getting on my nerves lol. want one for a scrapbook page but can't for the life of me think of its name!!!

Its got a roll of plastic in it that u punch letters onto the reverse side of so they become embossed(and white) and then u go to the scissor icon and cut it off and when u peel the back off its a sticker

Can't explain any clearer tahn that i am sorry

but anytone any clues? and next question...where can i get a cheap one?

Dymo. Try Partners stationers.

no thats too posh for me lol! it used to be easy to get hold of when i was younger but not seen them for ages

its hand held and when u sqeuuze the handle (or somehting like that) the letters get "punched" into the plastic

dymotape - hm is right.

no its not electric....soooo hard to explain lol!

that dymo tape does look good tho but i want the unpredictability of whether or not the text will be straight.

having a break fomr looking its giving me a head ache lol

thank you tho

nope u were right....sorry! i had a different image in my head

Thank you

No honestly, it's one of these

The old sqeezy one you remember aren't made anymore.

Try ebay for an old one ??

oooh what a blast from the past !
I had one of these when I went through that stationery phase every girl goes through -DDs going through that phase at the mo so her Xmas stocking will include her own sellotape dispenser, Blu-tack, pens galore etc.

(I presume all/most girls go through this or are we a family of freaks )

Hornbag, I'm still in a stationery adoration phase!

LOL !
DD will find any excuse to borrow the sellotape. She also has hiding places for little pieces of blu-tack. Blimey she'd wet herself if she got a Dymo ! (wonder if mines still in my parents attic...)

Hi MOM - is this the type you're looking for? dymo junior

Hunker, me too, I can't resist shops selling stationery, and have more pens and pretty notebooks etc than you can shake a stick at.

BTW, Thanks for spelling it correctly. I went to parent's evening at school last week, and before I left HAD TO point out to ds's teacher that her drawer should be labelled Stationery, rather than Stationary. Will she have me marked as a troublemaker, do you think?

YES THATS THE ONE!!!!!! the junior one!!!

THank you thank you thank you!!!!!

(sorry only just checked back on this!!)
