Welcome to the March 17, 2007 edition of the Stamping Mad carnival. This is a very small carnival, but well worth reading, since it discusses the Crop-A-Dile, a new tool I’ve been wanting to try:
Barbra Sundquist presents Wild for the Crop-A-Dile posted at BeyondPaper.net, saying, “This is a review of the Crop-A-Dile tool used in […]

The only tricky part seems to be creating the template for cutting out the vellum […]
You wouldn’t believe what I found today, practically right up the street. I almost bought this neat old building a few years ago to renovate for a house, but I decided it was more than I could handle. It was a church with a loft and annexes and it needed a ton of work. Seeing […]
