    Lovely colours, and an inspirational video. I can't wait to get creating! Sadly, two of the closures were faulty, but they will easily be replaced through Temu. Just as well, as I plan to make lots! I do wish printed versions were available for those of us who don't have access to the technology to print stuff out. But overall, lovely ideas.
