    The Scroll Messages!

    I've had an inquiry about this, so.... In case it will help you decide who to give your punch boxes to,  you can read the final scroll messages for the "Sweet Words" box here on the new Punch Box page of my website: http://www.leafcutterdesigns.com/shop/punchbox.html. Follow the "click here" link in the 3rd paragraph if you want to read them. Enjoy! -Lea

    YOUR ADDRESS: If you haven't yet submitted the survey with your shipping address, please do!

    CUSTOM punch boxes: Please fill out your survey as soon as possible so we can make them for you!

    all lovely things,

    Lea

        Well, if nothing else, it motivated me to get my custom list done. I was typing them up on the tablet while watching Christmas movies last night. My wife kept asking me what I was doing and I kept responding 'Nothing! Watch the movie!"
