    We have a wedding coming up in a few months and have been doing a lot of craftwork but there are things we'd like to have and can't make. We could add some really special items to the reception and for gifts if we had this tool. Of course we'd use in in future for cards, gifts, scrapbooking - lots of things. mcgillrmcgill(at)charter(dot)net

    This would be so much fun! I would use it with my grandkids to make pictures and crafts as presents.
