    What a great tutorial, both in the gathering/making and telling. And now we know where Paul gets his talent!

    I love the community aspect of this project. Crafting is much more fun when shared with others.

    It's so much fun to hear about the relatives of crafty online people I admire. This is such a fabulous project, I love it! Our senior center has a day each month where people can bring in their grandchildren for a whole day of fun. I need to suggest this since it would work for all ages. Thanks so much for the fun idea and great tips, I'll be linking to this.

    I love this, thank you so much! I just started teaching crafts at our senior center and planning what we'll be doing - this will be a perfect addition and I know they will love it too :)

    I was a guest at one of Nancy's abundant craft "meals." She gave us the great gift to create beauty when we believed we had no ability to create. The photographs shown here are a mere sampling of the gorgeous cards made by so many delighted invitees. Believe me, this is a magnificent project. Nancy not only makes beauty but gives her ability to us. Bravo, Nancy!

    I have a friend that works with eldery people, I'll send her the link as she might find this interesting. :-)

    Thank you to Nancy for sharing this with us!

    Wow, I would love to get something like this going here in the city. There are so many senior centers and nursing homes around here, what a lovely activity this would be to bring to them.

    I love it! Where do I sign up to join the garden clubs? What a great crafty mom and such a wonderful project that really gets people excited. I can't wait to try it.
