Alright, so, the Sooper Sekrit craft project no longer needs to be Sooper Sekrit. Now you get to see it.

But first, since my ad-hoc toolkit for the design got more hits overnight than any of my finished products ever managed, I figure you might want to see the highly advanced and specialized toolkit I needed for the actual project itself:

And the beauty is, having invested WAAAAAAY too much time and effort in one, I have now figured out how to make several in much less time.

Which means I should get back to brainstorming Etsy names, I suppose.
