Blog Hopping (report)

I went to: The Pink Stamper and had a great time. She's so talented. One of these fine days, I'm gonna win something from over there. I guess you've got to be in it to win it though - right?

I signed up to be a follower. I'm like #4507 in her list of followers. How do you keep track? It's beyond me. But it's worth it if you could win something...

Blessings to you...

Crop-a-Dial & CADII video!

I couldn't forget this one. I always wanted to know how to use my Crop-a-diles. I have them both and rarely use them, but in this video I think she mentions how to use them and make a ribbon dispenser too. Which I really need. So enjoy!



That's it for me today too. I'll be back tomorrow..
