Hokie Dynah where DID the summer go??? I can’t believe tomorrow my boy starts Jr. High!!!  Sigh, we can’t complain about the summer it was good, nice weather, lots of time at the lake. Good times with great friends.  So on with the Fall.

Make a Wish!

The Wishblade! NOW that’s what I’m talking about, we’ve had tremendous support for these, they are reliable, and though at the beginning seem to be more expensive, really they won’t be. They work with all the fonts already on your computer, they do offer more fonts and support software that may or may not be really necessary.  At the bottom of this blurb I’ll put 8 links that a great customer who already has enjoyed her machine for some time has been generous enough to share with us. There is also a lot of information on www.wishblade.com

The difference with the wishblade is that it hooks up to your computer, while some feel that the cricut is the way to go because it’s portable, the Wishblade is actually smaller and lighter, just as portable with a laptop. And IMHO far more versatile. You can actually print off an image through your printer and then put that same sheet through your Wishblade to cut it out. What ever you scan, draw,  or download can be cut out… I don’t know about you but I have a gazillion fonts that I love and with all the optional downloads, well for me it’s a no brainer.  I’ve been playing with it and man is it slick, walks you through each step, I ‘d have to agree that there is very little learning curve.

Here are some links that have free downloads for it!  Let me know if you have more and I’m happy to share them with those who are interested!

Cricut has been just too difficult to get reliably, we did get in a few and won’t be carrying much in the way of supplies for them, we’ll order some of the supplies from time to time to accommodate those who purchased their machines from us but that’s about it… If you’d like us to bring in a machine for you we’re more than happy to do our best for you. Just drop me a line and I’ll let you know when my next shipment is coming, I might even be able to arrange shipping direct to you J

Shipping

We’ve had tremendous feedback from our new lower shipping rates, for the vast majority of customers they are actually paying less than the flat rate shipping.  The 3% back often covers a good percentage of their shipping J  As well the tracking emails from Canada post are great!  Thanks for the great responses we’ve had.
