Thanks Trish! I do have an original robo...... :lol: But I had an idea in my head that I had seen a die set like that, no doubt it will come back to me when I have forgotten why I wanted to remember it :lol:

oh would you believe, a simple search for postage stamp dies turned it up :lol::lol: They are a Nestie set, the largest being 4". Not as flexible as a cutting file, but it'll do for now :lol:
Wendy
Excellent! I assume we will be seeing more postage stamps coming to a Christmas card near you soon then :P
You know you can use the Silhouette software with your Craft Robo though, don't you? So you could get the postage stamp cut file I use for 65p and make it whatever size you want....
I still use the original robomaster software, didn't think I could use newer software cut files? Looks like I need to do some research!

Here's my Christmas card for week 6 - details are here on my blog...

Have answered your PM by the way Wendy!
Oooh another lovely card Trish - I think you need to basically link us up with your cut files! lol I would definitely add that one to my Silhouette store wish list.
Wendy, I have the original blue Robo and just before Christmas managed to finally resurrect it and have used the silhouette studio software on it rather than Robomaster. There are so many nice cut files in the Silhouette store and the fact you can still cut them on your original robo is a great bonus, I even managed to do print and cut for the first time ever, but I've not cut anything since then as I've been too busy playing with stamps and dies!
A big thank you to Trish :lol: I have acquired the cutting file in question .... and a few others.... and it cuts on my blue robo perfectly:D
Off to try actually making something with the cuts now!
Wendy
I have my old Silhouette and every time I see one of your cards Trish it reminds me that I have that file, every one. Now all I have to do is dust it off and get it out and use it.:lol:
Fab cards!

I like that very much, Trish.
They are gorgeous!
They are indeed! Great takes on the week 7 colours. :D
Here is my week 8:-
The snowflakes and the frame are Spellbinders dies.
Nat and Trish both lovely cards. You always amaze me Nat with the beautiful stamps you come up with, how on earth do you find them???
SilverTiger your cards are really pretty and festive. You have some lovely dies too, the fir branch is gorgeous and those snowflakes are really pretty.
Very nice indeed SilverTiger! :)
Trish, I commented on your blog but that cards deserves another mention as it's just lovely.... {happy sigh}

Week 9:-
White card stock - cuttlebug embossing folder for the border, silver snowflake brad. The dress on the topper is actually coral pink - but it looks red in the photo - sorry !
Week 10 :-
I used Hunky Dory cardstock, cut an aperture using the outer frame of the Tonic Butterfly Doily die, snowflake acetate behind the aperture, dark blue paper attached to the insert, layered with Memory box village die. Silver hologram card for Santa and his reindeer - a Rob Addams die, wooden snowman and Santa, text using Marieanne die and a xyron sticker maker.
Oooh the week 9 card is most elegant! And yay! The Memory Box die has come out for week 10. :)
I love that die - it is so useful !
It certainly is, my Christmas cardmaking was so boring before, cannot be without it now. :)
Here's my Christmas offering for week 10:

Fab cards as always Trish, love week 8 especially with the sprig of holly and swirly bit. :D
Three fabulous cards - really love the backing paper on the first one, and the beautiful reindeer on the third.
Week 11:
Something old = backing paper - from Kanban about 3 years ago.
Something new = set of large nesting dies from X Cuts.
Something borrowed = a pot of holographic glitter from a fellow crafter - only took a couple of teaspoonfuls to coat the snowflake.
Something blue = most of the card and the text.
Oooh that snowflake is gorgeous!
Here's my week 11 Christmas cracker:
