I appreciate these videos as you have such great ideas! Thanks. I label my handbooks similar to the way you do but I use letters a – e for the rows and then the numbers for the 10 buttons in the rows. I also label the pad with the letters on the left side and the numbers across the top.
Love all the help and ideas you share with us.
Love it, yes can wait for Jan 7 2011

I really like this project. Thanks.
I couldn’t justify this cartridge for my purposes, but this project doesn’t help me hold fast to that notion. I LOVE that little purse! (Of course, that just makes me long for an Expression for larger projects! Maybe me New Year’s resolution should be: Be satisfied with what you have; utilizing creativity to make the most of it! Happy New Year!
I absolutely LOVE this cartridge!!! I have just been waiting to buy it!
You have done it again. I love this card. What is interesting is how much it helps to have the right tools, and with someone like you, “paving the way” to experiment helps. Thank you Megan. Love your work. I am learning alot.
just have to agree..what a cute idea for my teenage nieces, will be putting this cartridge and the xryon machine on my “wish list”
How cute! My “must have” list is getting very long…and that is just items that i have seen here on your videos!!!
Very Nice! This will be great to use for my nieces.
Numbering the handbooks helps a lot. The little designs on the keyboard plastic get hard to see, esp. for a grandma. Thanks for all you do.
