Hello Community! 
A brand new week is here. Let’s take a look at what’s been happening around the community over the past few days.
Featured Projects We Loved
@Cory_Barger shared his first iEngrave wood carving , followed by a vibrant Halloween-themed shadow box that’s full of seasonal charm and color.
@Donna_Burbey created a memorial project for a friend’s family member who passed away. She shared the message “we can make an impact”, and invited others to post items made for awareness or healing.
@ruth_cartwright designed a graphic tee inspired by Ostara , the Spring goddess. It’s always inspiring to discover the cultural stories behind your creations.
Tips and Tools Worth Trying
@Sabeyneh shared how she used the Mini Heat Press for leather stamping — a smart and practical technique with great results.
As part of the H17 hands-on reviewer program, @Judi_B shared her unboxing experience . More tester content will be rolling out soon, so stay tuned.
And if you’ve just received your H17, here’s a quick guide to help get you started:
