WOYWW - rubber rubber rubber
I know I have been AWOL, but if you look at the previous post you will see why. I refuse to feel guilty about it, because the truth is everything I have done in the last several weeks has been so totally TOP SECRET that I could not show you a thing! Or the post would have had to self destruct in 15 seconds or something.....!
Anyway, today I have mega work to do, and here it is...3 big piles of rubber to be put on foam, trimmed and sent to their final destination.....if you are nearby and fancy a quick lesson in machine trimming rubber, then pop over and I'll put my feet up and leave you to it.
And before you ask.....yes rubber can be grey...we don't normally use grey...but as our supplier has run out of red (again), we have to use grey until the red shipment arrives in the UK...we are told in days.....hopefully it will arrive cos I am nearly out of grey now too....
And NO the sodding white shed is not cleaned up and sorted out, so don't go asking about that either...bit of a sore point.... not entirely my fault....Miss Jo F-Y shot thru to the big apple for a vacation...and she was chief, self-appointed, shed-elf... 3 summers later and now I'm not sure I can even get the camera in the door to take a pic, but I will have to think up a subversive tactic to get her over here...maybe if i set a date that might help???
So as you can tell, very excited about the day ahead..... now where did i put that ipod....
Don't forget to see what the team are up to by going to Julia's place and practise your 'nosey' skills. Bet you're a natural, just like me.

LOL I was wondering about the grey when I saw your tweets yesterday! Looks like I have to starve and wear rags again in order to keep up with all your new stamps!
What a lovely pile of rubber, even if it is grey!! Get that Miss Jo over to sort your shed, we want to see inside!! Gotta get back to the day job now.
Gosh you really do look like you have a few busy days ahead of you.

I must admit I wouldn't want to be in your shoes trimming all that rubber! I guess you just have to keep in mind the satisfaction you'll feel at the final result!
Hope that rubber mountain has dissolved into a little hill by the time you are reading this comment!!

I am so impressed with these. About two years ago, I took a tour of a company that makes their own stamps, then cuts them. It was so fascinating. Although they used mostly red rubber, they said the grey melted at a slightly different temperature, so they couldn't mix the two in the same oven. Fascinating, as was this snoop.
Well it all looks very exciting to me! cant wait to see all the new stamps you have - I am going to Artisan so will hopefully see some there.
wow! lots of stamps - all the best, I am a bit late, Fab Workspace, Happy WOYWW! Thank you for showing us your workspace.
Wow looks like a lot of work to me, I think I'll leave you to it!
