Review: Fiskars - Fingertip Control Swivel Knife
I recommend this product
GREAT CRAFT KNIFE (17 November 2009)
I like how the blade swivels because you can get into those really intricate cuts!
Also, it's comfortable on your hand/fingers. :) It feels like you are writing with a pen when you are cutting. It's also small enough so it is easy to store and it doesn't take up too much room!
Overall, a great craft knife!

Never can get enough. (01 September 2009)
So, if you noticed.... I absolutely LOVE all sorts of alpha sticker sets. I'm addicted to them. Anyway, I have these in almost every single color, and I use them on TONS of my projects. They are a great way to add a fun title to your layout. Besides, each sheet comes with tons of letters. :)

My new FAV scallop punch! (27 July 2008)
I have been looking for this punch for some time now, but it was always sold out. I got lucky because a friend found it for me at a local Michael's. Apparently, it was the last one because they're always high in demand! This has to be my new favorite scalloped edge punch! It makes scalloped edge paper when you want to use it on a project. The scallops came out a little smaller than I thought they would, but even still it comes out really cute! You don't have to push down on the lever very hard, so it punches without that much resistance. If you're looking for a good priced punch definitely check this one out. I promise you'll use it way more than once!

Review: Making Memories - Mini Stapler and Color Staples
I recommend this product
Totally cool stapler. (23 June 2008)
I never thought I'd buy this product, but I found the staples really cheap at a local scrapbook store. The price was too cheap to pass up. I eventually bought the set with the mini stapler and colored staples. The colors of the staples are bright and vivid. The stapler works like any other stapler, so no worries trying to figure it out. Just load it and use it!

Review: We R Memory Keepers - Crop-A-Dile II Big Bite
Verified Buyer
I recommend this product
I bought it!! (10 June 2008)
I bought it! I bought it! I could not resist this time around. I had it sitting in a pile of tools, and I had not opened it yet. I decided to finally open it, and I totally LOVE this tool. I think it's pretty pricey, but it's a great hole punch and setter. I love that it reaches into the middle of the page unlike the original CAD. It's quiet, so no banging with hammers just like the original, and it requires absolutely no effort on my part. I just push down, and it makes the punch. The ruler is handy as well, so that you know where you are on the paper. It took me a couple of tries to figure out where it was going to punch the hole, but now I don't have problems. Just practice a couple of times before you actually do it on a layout! Oh, and I had to test it... Yes, it punches right through metal, acrylic board, chipboard, and fabric.
Get it!

Glitz Arrow Stamp (08 June 2008)
I couldn't resist. I went back to the local scrapbook store and bought this stamp. I have fallen in love with this collection of stamps.

The arrows on the stamp roll are all cute designs. If you plan on getting any arrow stamp, get this one!

Another great review for Marvy punches! (02 June 2008)
This is another punch in my Marvy collection. I got this one as a gift, and I think it is far beyond cute. The scalloped edge adds great character. It's great on layouts and cards. I can't get over how much I really like these punches. They're easy, and they don't hurt your hand when you press down on the lever. Get it if you want a great punch!

Review: Die Cuts with a View - Cardstock Stack - White Core - Textured - 12x12 - Neutrals
I recommend this product
My favorite DCWV stack. (02 June 2008)
Out of all of the stacks that DCWV has, I like this one the best. I travel and go on random vacations here and there, so the color of the paper always matches the scenic pictures I take. The cardstock is thick and great quality. The white core is awesome when you want to use a teared paper look. I think it's pricey when it's not on sale, so what for a sale! You can usually get it at a good price!

Wonderful template. (01 June 2008)
I got this template kit as a gift, and I think it works fabulously. I thought it would be such a hassle because it was pretty big, but surprisingly it's not even that big. It cuts a variety of sizes for your layouts, cards, and any other projects. The curvy cutter latches right into the template, and I never have any problem with tearing my paper. I just run the blade around the template once, and I have a perfect circle! Get this tool if you don't already have it!

Review: Xyron "X" Removable Cartridge

More xyron!! (01 June 2008)
I was kind of sad when I finally ran out of adhesive in my "X" xyron. I ran to the store and picked up a box, it was at a pretty good price (I got it on sale for around $3.50). I'm glad I bought it, because I pretty much use it for a bunch of small stuff on my layouts and cards. It's repositionable too, so if you place something in the wrong spot, you can peel it off and put it elsewhere! Definitely an awesome buy.

YAY for stickers! (28 May 2008)
I got the 5" create-a-sticker as a birthday gift, and I absolutely love it. Surprisingly there is a lot of sticky stuff on each roll, so I don't replace it as much as I thought I would have to. You have to be careful if you plan on using any thick embellishments on this because I accidentally spilled eyelets into the feeder, and it got jammed. I just opened it up and picked out the eyelets. Fortunately, I got everything out. Great source of adhesive!

For punches, I am still addicted to the Marvy punches. I have a bunch of these punches now ever since I bought my first Marvy punch. I never have any problem punching out of my paper.

Review: Ranger Ink - Inkssentials - Clear Stamp Cleaner With Dabber Top - 2 Ounces
I recommend this product
It's an OK cleaner. (28 May 2008)
I find that this dabber top cleaner works well with SOME of my clear stamps, but it's true -- it's hard to clean out the details on some of the really intricate stamps. It gets the job done by getting most of the ink out, but I personally would rather scrub it on the stamp cleaner brushes. Also, if you press to hard on the dabber part, the solution inside will seep out and get all over the place.
