Well, I ordered a Slice machine on Sunday night, and its status was updated to 'dispatched' yesterday afternoon, so it should be arriving today.

I ordered it off the internet from Country View Crafts, as they had the best returns policy for the item. I have heard mixed reviews about it, and wanted to make sure that if my machine was faulty I could send it back to the stockist without much hassel.

I have heard that many stockists are not going to replenish their stock of the Slice once it has been sold out, as the machine hasn't been as successful as say, the Cricut machines and the Big Shot.

Obviously some people have had great success with their machine, where as others have been completely put off due to a bad experience with a faulty unit.

Never the less, mind shall be out of the box and plugged in to charge as soon as it arrives.. and depending on when I get round to trying it out,...

It will be Mothering Sunday soon.....so at The Crafty Pad this week the challenge is....
We'd like you to give your project some charm for your Mum or friend......and to use at least one on charm on your project.

I made my DT Project for a friend to give to her Mum next Sunday on Mother's day.
I have made a basket, very similar to the Easter one I made the other week, using instructions from the Magnolia Ink Magazine.
Martha Stewart Punches...
