Hi all, If you have held programs in the past, highlighting the Cricut, whether during the program or using it to prep the program beforehand, would you be willing to share your ideas and successes with me? If you had anything that did not work well, I would love to hear about those too if you are willing to share. Thank you so much! -- *"I think books are like people, in the sense that they'll turn up in your life when you most need them." - Emma Thompson* *Lorry Traver* Public Services Librarian Brandon Township Library 248-627-1460
