I love the pocket idea.

I have been looking at corner rounders. Mine does very poorly on heavy paper or more than one layer. Do you like your chomper?

AWESOME video! I am making a wedding explosion Box with this tutorial. You make things so much more easy to do. I wish everyone would explain things the way you do. I will try to send you a photo of mine when its finished. Thanks for the inspiration and the instructions. I have a few magazines from the UK that have this in it but with their measurments, It so confusing to try to convert over that I get frustrated and quit. But that very day your video came up and It was a god send thanks so much!!! Have an awesome day!!!

I just love your videos! First I love listening to your southern twang. Secondary, you do really great projects that I could probably do. Thirdly, you explain and show everything so clear and slowly that it you make it that we all can make it. Thank you so much and keep up the wonderful job.
