Bashfulscrapper's Reviews

I think there's a bit of a "learning curve" with Glimmer Mist. It can glop a bit, and you definitely have to shake it up really well before you use it. But after a few practice sprays, I loved how it looks. This color is a really nice, versatile one. I'm looking forward to playing with it some more!

This is the second Basic Grey card kit I've tried, and I love them both! I love the fun designs and bright colors on this one - they look better in "real life" than from the picture on the package. I make and give a lot of cards, and while I love to make them from scratch, I'm really a slow scrapper, so it's nice to find a short-cut. These are nice enough to have that "home-made" look, but they're a breeze to put together. My suggestion: don't hesitate to add a few of your own little touches - a little inking and doodling can go a long way towards making these more personal. Also, the adhesive seems just a tad weak on the chipboard accents - I've been adding a tiny glue dot here and there, which seems to do the trick.

Stickles are unquestionably the best glitter glue I've tried, and Diamond is my new favorite color. I wanted something with very little "color" but lots of sparkle, for some snowflakes. Of the ones I tried, Diamond definitely gave me the look I was going for. (Stardust and Icicle were both fine, but both had a little too much "blue" in them for this particular project.)

I am having so much fun with templates! This one is is nice and large. It's great for doing a full 12 x 12 background. I tried using it as a mat, with white ink, on colored cardstock, and it came out great! I'm not very confident about my free-hand doodling yet, but with tools like these, you don't have to be. I'm looking forward to experimenting more with this - I imagine that there are lots of different ways to use it.

I am so happy with this set! The applicator works wonderfully. This is so much easier to use than the old EK Success chalk I had - they just fell apart, and were so hard to apply. This case seems perfect for keeping the chalks intact, and I just can't say enough for the separate little puffs for each chalk color.

I've been wanting to try one of these for a while, and am so glad I finally found it in stock! I love the idea of doodling, but never had the courage to try it myself - until now. This little product works amazingly well - perfect doodles, no talent required! And doodling is so much fun!
