Okee dokee, I bought the 3Doodler pen. Judge me if you want, I needed it. If there ever was a person who required such a tool, it's this girl. So let me review!
   Any of you who watched the commercial, as I did, was expecting to pick up this fancy pen and create  any number of magical creations. This was not the case. After an hour of frustratingly slow progress, all I had to show for it was a table full of misshapen plastic bits. I was starting to feel like maybe I'm not as artsy fartsy as I thought! I had to show this pen who's boss.
   I was also very optimistic that this pen is for more than just doodling, figuring that melted plastic must stick to all sorts of other materials. In my quest to prove this to be true, as well as become the master of 3Doodler, I pressed on.  After some doing, I came up with these. The card was fun and easy, but the plastic became unstuck quickly. I used my favourite spray glue and some glitter to save it, and it worked out great! The eye started just as a doodle, to see what the pen is really made for.

Now here is where the whole game changed, I got out the iron. Stroke of genius I tell you. I used some waxy type paper that came with my iron-on transfers, to keep the plastic from sticking to the iron. Then I used a lot of pressure and no steam to get the plastic to adhere to a tight weave, no stretch fabric.

 But No, it does not end here.
   See these little spaces in between the green lines of the eye? Well I'm about to cut those into little holes. Yeah I am.

And here it is on top of my computer screen to emphasize the holes. This makes me happy. This is also only the beginning… Just imagine, the clothes, the layers, the glitter, infinite design possibilities. All of this leaves me with another question, what else can I melt it to?
