I am joining Heather Bailey's March of the Tools . This sounds fun. There are many tools that make your life easier, but as a crafter and graphic designer. These are the two tools so far that I can't live without when doing crafting or design. E-xacto knife is an essential tool for creating mock-ups. I own this knife for 12+ years. My newest tool is the Ultra ShapeXpress. It's easy to use and it's very practical tool. Cuts any shapes in paper. Also, I read that cuts in fabrics? I have to see for myself. I have to try that yet. A new addition to March of the Tools. Still not too late!: A trimmer from Fiskars. Very useful, practical, sharp and a time saver. For heavy duty use, see cutters from Carl. Found here . Heavy duty rotary cutter Rotary Trimmer exacto knife Did some egg shape cards The Ultra ShapeXpress Tags for my son's birthday

Made two mini-crochet-totes, easter stickers, magnets and flat cards. Now available at my etsy shop.

Able to do fabric heart valentine cards for my older son Brandon to preschool. Did some little knitting, some sewing... wish I can do more. With work, freelance, home, kids, I think that's quite a lot done.

It's been a long time that I haven't come back to my blog... many things happened since Thanksgiving. We all were sick in the house. Since my older son started preschool, he brought germs from school... next our younger soon got sick too. Following my husband and me. For the rest of the end of year, every weekend we were home to get better from any cold, running nose, coughing, fever... Fortunately, we are much better for the last couple weeks and able to enjoy some family fun and do some crafting, crochet and sewing.
