Crafter's Companion Adhesive
Ordered 4 of these from Crafter's Companion for a Saint Patrick's day project I am working on. I needed a strong glue but the project is small and my ATG gun would have been difficult to use. Did a few test and this feels great in your hand super sticky and holds extremely well. Plus I ordered them online had them in four days!

Thank You
Made this super simple card for my neighbor. She and her husband were so kind last week. They snowblowed our driveway while my husband and I were at work. It was so nice to come home and half the work was done. She LOVES frogs. I welded two 4.25" frogs from Create a Critter page 24 on my Gypsy. Use card stock and Thank You stamp is from BasicGrey. Was perfect for the challenge over at http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/ to create a shaped card something other then a square or rectangle.
