Reasons I have not posted recently

Hello friends, just wanted to let you know that I have not been able to create too much at this time as I am having spinal cord problems and it causes too much weakness in my hands. I thank you all for staying with me. I will try to get some pics posted soon.

ELMER’S GIVEAWAY

Recently I was contacted by a representative from Elmer’s glue and products. She asked if I would be interested in reviewing several of their crafting products. Well, I already trust Elmer’s products and so I said yes. I received a nice sized box of items to review.
Now for the the exciting part, Elmers is allowing me to have a giveaway for TWO of my followers. Wow, how generous is that.

Contest starts Monday, Feb. 14 and ends Sunday night Feb. 20 – I will pick the 2 winners by Random Generator on Monday morning and winners names will be posted on Monday Feb 21st


RULES to ENTER
1.MUST BE A FOLLOWER OF MY BLOG
2.LEAVE A COMMENT (only 1 per person)please leave a way for me to contact you
3.MUST LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES (Elmer’s will only send packages for this giveaway inside the USA)


Now for the ELMERS CRAFT BOND and X-ACTO products reviews.

Tapes
Removable double sided scrapbooking tape. I used this for positioning photos on my scrapbook layouts and it worked as it should.
Permanent tape runner and Dot runner I loved both of these runners, I have had trouble in the past with other runners “bunching” up on the surface, I did not have any trouble with these two. I end up using all that was sent to me and then I went out and purchased more refills. I also like their size, just right to take to crops and such.
Glue spots I used up all of these on an altered art book I was making. I sometimes have trouble with products sticking when altering a project. I did not have any trouble with these spots sticking. I also like how they are packaged.

Glue sticks
I used the disappearing purple, repositionable, washable school glue and the extra strength. All worked well but I really liked the extra strength stick. All clean up was easy.

Glue pens
I used the wet/dry, paper and fabric and paper craft glue gel. I liked all of them,( I did not try using the paper and fabric one on any fabric though)

X-ACTO
Designer series decorative edge scissors Who doesn’t love decorative edge scissors.
Cutting scissors They cut as they should and are very sharp

X-ACTO craft knife and X-ACTO small swivel craft knife I love, love both of these craft knives. I like that the handle is bigger around and is easier for me to hold onto. They also come with a sturdy blade cap. And absolutely love the hot pink handles.

Elmer’s Painters Opaque Paint Markers
Bright colors and craft colors each in a pack of 5, medium point tip. I tried each pack on different types of surfaces and so far they look great. They can be used on fabric as long as it is set with heat, I did not try using on fabric.

If you are a crafter, cardmaker or scrapbooker Elmer’s products are perfect for most of your needs. Products are archival safe and acid free with easy cleanup. Elmer’s products are reasonably priced.

FYI: Elmer’s will send both winners their package, I do not have the items nor do I know what will be included in package.


Disclaimer
I was sent numerous products by Elmer’s to review. My reviews are my own opinions. I was not compensated in any other form
