  1. Great layout, Gina!
    My fave product from AC would have to be Thickers--I think. Maybe the stickers. Maybe the embellies. No--I think the Thickers.

  36. Great concept that could work with other shapes too. Thank you for the idea. My fave AC product are the premium ribbon spools. I love the Mayberry line too but don't have anything from that. Yet. My hometown is Mount Airy, NC (Andy Griffith's hometown) so I get homesick in a happy way for Mayberry. Kristie Absher
