I am really enjoying the crafters companion monthly boxes...forces me to get out of my comfort zone and try new things. Bought a Gemini...my Cuttlebug jusrt was not up to the job.

Is anyone watching? That Gemini Go is cute, but small. Sure sounds noisy with their microphones.

I think the Gemini Go is really nice! It comes with a lot of stuff and sounds like it's a bargain. Won't be in stores until next year so if you want one better get it today.
I'm really liking all the stamps and dies they have! They even have a monthly kit from Crafters Companion.

I am loving the American Crafts Halloween Layering Stamps demonstration. Those stamps are cute! Layering Stamps |

They are indeed cute! I've bought some stuff, but I waited too long on the Crafter's Companion everyday sentiment dies, which I REALLY wanted. *sigh*
I like the Diamond Press Faith Sentiments, but I haven't pulled the trigger.

I got the Sara Davies small winter bundle and the 12x12 pad and then got the auto ship kit. Add that to the hero arts kit and I’ve spent a little too much this month.

I like the Diamond Press Faith Sentiments, but I haven't pulled the trigger. I previewed that set and wasn't convinced I'd use it very often. Then Beth Kingston comes on and completely put her hex on me and I couldn't resist it! I think I'd buy everything she demonstrates if I had an unlimited amount of money!  |

I love Beth. I didn’t see any of her shows today (which was probably a good thing -ha).
I love the DP little dies. Unfortunately I have not had a lot of luck with the actual Diamond Press machines. I have broken the handle on two of the machines. Ugh.
The handle fell off of my second DP this afternoon when I was using it. I finally said the heck with it and ordered the Crafters Companion Gemini GO. I hadn’t intended to buy another Gemini machine, but I really like having a small machine on my craft table.
I really should delete all of the shows off of my DVR that I recorded today. I really ended up spending far more than I planned to!

I love Beth! She could sell me just about anything. Ha
I really love the little Diamond Press dies. Unfortunately I have not had a lot of good luck with the actual Diamond Press machines. I have broken the handles on two of the machines. UGH.
I wasn’t planning on purchasing anything, but I finally gave in and got the Gemini GO. I really like having a small diecutting machine on my crafting table. I thought about getting the mini version of a Cuttlebug, but the Today’s Special seemed like a good value. I do like the Gemini brand of die cutters.
I have other shows DVRd, but I should probably delete them without watching them. I spent more than I had planned as it is. LOL

Restless Spirit, please come back and tell us how the Gemini Go is! I was tempted, but I really don't want to plug one more thing in. |

I watched a preview of the Gemini Go last week. I have a Gemini and a Jr. I thought the motor did not sound as strong as the other two. Since I have a sidekick, I decided to pass.

I spent way too much...Crafters Companion is really coming out with new and fun things. I have loved Anna Griffin stuff in the past but her kits and Cuttlebug are looking very dated at this point. I bought the mega bundle dimensional Christmas die set that did not show up until 10 pm. They didn’t even put it on the website until about an hour before. Also bought some of her paper bundles. Got the We R Memory Keepers label maker...so fun to think about trying some new techniques.
Getting the monthly subscription box is getting me out of my comfort zone.
