Crop-A-Dile Review

I love to Scrapbook and I'm always looking for the newest tool that is put out on the market.  Anyone who does scrapbooking, card-making, paper-crafts, etc. and uses embellishments such as eyelets, snaps, and/or just needing to punch a hole in just about anything, would definitely benefit and love this tool/product.  This tool is a hand held Hole Punch, Snap and Eyelet Setter. 

When the Crop-A-Dile came out, I waited awhile before getting one - I wanted to see and read what others were saying about it.  After watching a short video of someone showing what it does and how it worked, I was amazed.  I immediately went out and purchased one for myself.  This tool is truly user friendly - it can literally punch a hole in popsicle stick like putting a hot knife through butter - I kid you not.  However, the only downfall with it is it's limited to its reach on a  piece of paper.  For instance, if you have a piece of paper that is 81/2x11 or 12x12, this tool is only going to reach around the boarder to 2 to 3 inches.  However, if you're crafty and know how to think outside the box, there's ways to work around that.  This tool is awesome and I recommend it whole heartedly.  However, the same company has upgraded and has taken it even farther with an an item called "Crop-A-Dile II - Big Bite" .  This is the same thing except this one will allow you to reach 6" inches farther.  However, that would be a different review.
