  6. Great video. I will have to make some flowers with a little glimmer mist on them. What and where did you get the tray you had them in. It looked like a good thing to have handy.

    Hope to watch when she is busy during reading time. LOL.

  19. Rhonna, you are incredible. I love these flowers that you made. I just knew that I would have a use for those coffee filter that I haven't used. You know, instant coffee is so much quicker-LOL. Lisa G., I like your idea of the cupcake liners. Wow, the creative here is SUPER!! Thank you so much!
