[Nfb-krafters-korner] Colouring in, was, Easy crumple Card

Tue Jul 31 23:06:39 UTC 2012

Hi, I think that it depends on the degree of site and the interest of the 
particular indevidual. Everyone has their different prefferences and 
interests so the same goes in the matter of coloring pages. I liked to color 
when I was a kid and I even took a few drawing classes when I was in high 
school. I don't color much any more except when I am playing with my nieces 
or neffue.
