Tips from the show

• The magic glue never dries, so you can work on your card at your own pace over several days if needed.
• You receive one and a half times the number of crystals you need to complete the project, giving you extra for experimentation.
• The glue has enough give that you can nudge crystals into position if they land slightly off target.
