I love your new blog. I especially like the fact that you put the videos on this blog so that you could see how to use some of the products. I was in the store the other day and saw the new bind it all covers but wasn't sure how to use them. After watching the video I am sure that I will be coming in to purchase some.

Wow! Am I really the first to comment? I'd be over the moon if I had a gift certificate. My request would be to have a Copic colour list for the colours used in the card projects for the Whipper Snapper card classes. This would be for those of us who missed the class and would love to mimic the colour schemes. It always seems I miss these popular classes.
