    How darling! I love the idea of using the color blocks to make so many different things! Keep plugging your new adhesive, I love love love it!! Will be looking forward to Black Friday to get me some, I have some uses for it!! What cartridge did you use, by the way? I didn’t catch it, and I don’t think you said… I remember when we used to do the round glass ornaments (ball-shaped) with different colors of glitter paint, this seems much less “dense” and more “opaque”. Cannot wait to try this new technique!! Who knew the many uses of floor cleaner?!?!? :)

    I love the Ornament Tutorial, it is so cute. I am so looking forward to your New Adhesive coming out. I ordered the Paper Layerz last month and I just love this product. I have found I am no longer wasting paper or having several small pieces of cardstock laying around. I wish you came out with this years ago, I would of saved a lot of money, as I use to constantly throw out my small piece of cardstock.

    I like the ornament. What cartridge did you use? You’ve inspired me with a lot of ideas.I’ve had my cricut since April and just recently received/watched your 2nd Edition Cricut A to Z DVD which I then lent to my sister (she has the create). I just ordered the A Child’s Year and Forever Young Cartridges just in time for christmas. I Also used my cricut rewards to get the Nursery Rhymes Cartridge (which I thought would coordinate well with the A Child’s year cartridge) and the Cricut Lite Splish Splash Cartridge. I have yet to order/try your Paper Layerz which seem to make getting projects done a lot simpler. I look forward to your black Friday deals! Thanks again for the inspiration!
