The Big Buzz In Blogland- what others are excited about!

Word is... no sewing. no binding. 
If you got duct tape and a rubber band, you can make a journal!

 As I visit some of my favorite blogs, I've noticed a theme here. 
They are getting excited over duct tape and creating these incredible journals.
Inspired by Diana Trout.
