    I would totally love a chance to dig into those gorgeous goodies.

    My crafting preference is to get all painty and hands-on. Painter pens and x-acto knives are the kind of tools I love working with the most.

    And that bi-fold board… makes me want to make something, bad!

    Oh goodness!!!! How much could be had with all of those goodies? I’ve gotten addicted to card making over the last year and I go through SO many supplies making them. The circle cutter looks really neat and I think that could be something I’d use everyday. I make cards all the time and so does my daughter, I could just see her eyes popping with excitement if we were to win and see her opening the box. Thanks for this wonderful opportunity, so very sweet of you. ((hugs))

    Elmers is my product of choice and I would love to get to try them all! I would absolutely love the chance to be forced to show what I do…..working on getting out of the naughty self talk! Thanks for the giveaway!
