I-rock Rocks!

So I got to try out my lovely new pink buddy this weekend and she is FABULOUS!  Love her!  After I scrounged around for some batteries..which I stole from the Tv remote and may have forgotten to put back before Anthony got home and wondered where the hell the batteries went, I finally went to work.  First I put my gems down in my design on my paper.  Then I turned her on and held the button down for 15 seconds to get her to the right temperature.  Then I put the tip of the I-rock on to the top of the gem and held for about 10 seconds.  I noticed that obviously the bigger the gem you are using the longer you need to hold it down for.  Also if you are using it on top of chipboard it seemed to take longer no matter what the size.  I continued doing this until my design was completely secured.  I really don't feel like it was that time consuming.  It takes longer to stitch things so I thought it was a great new way to bling up my page.  I'll post my layout on here after I take a picture of it tonight!
