I recieved Twistina's CD last week via email (still loving this way of receiving instructions best!) and just today found the time to really look it over.

Just like Volume 1, this CD is laid out in an easy to read, easy to follow pdf format.  The 15 step-by-step photo instructions are all very well done.  She uses a varity of balloon sizes and shapes but most of the construction is done with 260s.  The CD contains instructions for: Shaky Sparkle Wand, Playful Kitten (Bracelet), Panda Bear, Adorable Giraffe, Shane The Sheep, Teddy in An Aeroplane, Flower Girl Bracelet, Piggylet, Snowman in A Snow Globe, Colourful Macaw, Angry Green Hunk, Dark Space Lord, Pippa Pig, Sponge Guy, Purr-fect Cat

 I fell in love with the Flower Girl bracelet the moment I saw it.  I can't imagine any girl not liking that one.  And the Playful Kitten --- what I totally awesome bracelet concept!  The Teddy in An Aeroplane --- I know of several of my restaurant regulars right now that are gonna simple go nuts for this one!  The same can be said for the Piggylet design.  And of course I can't forget her "Purr-fect Cat".   As someone who is used to recreating designs just by looking at photos, I must say it was nice to see the instructions for this one and see the thought process and construction style behind it.

OK, I have to say this just to keep this review honest and on point:  Even though I really like the snowman in the snowglobe design, I just can't see me making it at the restaurant because just as Twistina points out in her instructions, it can be a bit tricky.   I can see me using it as part of a centerpiece though.  

All in all, this is a very good CD and one that I think most would find value in.  Here is a link to where you can find it as well as her first CD: http://www.twistina.co.uk/cdrom.html

Congrats on the CD Twistina,
