This rocks my socks and I gotta say so.<br /><br />Seriously.<br /><br />We've been trying to finish up a family music video by using my digital camera on video (due to an untimely death....RIP flipcam) and now I'm feeling SO LAME.

I loved that you showed the behind the scenes stuff, it seems so professional, but seeing how you did it in your home makes it more accessible to the rest of us. Hopefully I can try one next year!

That stuff is amazing-- it tears off easily, fastens securely, yet you can use it again and again without it losing its stickiness. <br /><br />Glad you enjoyed!MelancholySmilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04111279059498208927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3995129684573254340.post-87886319101023586592010-12-08T13:22:47.482-07:002010-12-08T13:22:47.482-07:00I just saw your video on Design Mom, it is so wond...I just saw your video on Design Mom, it is so wonderful!

I'll be reading this post again with the fam when they get home today because the whole time we were watching the video everyone kept saying, "Woah! How did they do that!?!" (and various other expressions of amazement and wonder) I'm off to watch again, this time paying attention to the drifting candy cane hearts (and all the details MerelyLooking mentioned in her comment on that post.)LisAwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03299284773832500834noreply@blogger.com
