I love 49th and Market paper collections, but this collection by Katie Pertiet is just magical! If you love rich colors, distressed graphics and thick papers, you will not be disappointed with this collection! Thanks SB for bring us the best that 49th has to offer!

I love 49th and Market and Katie Pertiet's Spectrum Sherbet Collection is no exception! Bold and beautiful graphics, vibrant rich colors, and the top quality papers that are sure to please. If you like thick papers, and beautiful graphics, this collection will not disappoint! Thank you SB for bring us the best of 49th and Market products!

49th and Market has done it again with their new "Beached" collection. With it's watercolor pages with very subtle vintage styling you can use them on just about any project. The one thing you'll notice right off, is the heft and heavy weight of this beautiful collection. I love 49th papers for their high quality papers. Their 6x8 sized collection packs are perfect for mini albums. Thanks SB for carrying such high quality products, that are made in the USA!

Lately I've been working with some very intricate die cuts and finely decided to use some "sticky sheets" to make assembly much easier. I dug through my stash and found a older WAMK brand sheet and thought I'd give it a try. I checked it to make sure it was still good, but it was so thin, holes developed as I started to remove the backing. Then I remembered that SB.com had recently sent me a sample, so I gave it a test run. WOW what a huge difference in the thickness, it pealed away perfectly and laid down beautifully on my cardstock! I tossed the WAMK in the trash, and ordered a package of SB.coms adhesive sheets. Very happy with my purchase, works perfectly on intricate die cuts! You can't go wrong with this one!

Tim Holtz never disappoints. His new Industrial gears are fabulous! I will use them in all my future steampunk designs. Thanks Tim and SB!

In true 49th and Market style, these are just lovely. I believe the other reviewer got a bad batch as the ones I received are perfect. I love these little Sugar Poses, they cluster wonderfully and the two toned colors are wonderful for vintage layouts and cards. If you like 49th and Market flowers, these will not disappoint!

This is a "mini" collection of 4 double sided sheets, but they are very pretty in true Vintage Artistry style!

I love 49th and Market flowers but was a bit surprised at how tiny these were. They measure approximated .5" across, so just be aware that these are itty bitty!

In true Re-Design style the details in this mould are wonderful! Can't wait to use them!

Excellent quality 80lb cardstock with great texture and strength for layouts and card making. Very happy with this purchase.

These really are so elegant. I really love that they are different widths and nice and deep. Makes them so versatile! Very happy with my purchase!

These sequins are some of the pretties silver sequins I've ever seen. They have an iridescent sparkle that just jumps right off the page. You can't help but love these beauties! I am very happy with this purchase, they will not disappoint!

I love the variety of different butterflies in this stencil and it worked perfectly when I used it to create ombre background paper for cards. Very happy with this purchase!

I'm new to Doodlebug products and was so pleasantly surprised at the quality of the adorable Smitten Kitten die cuts. The graphics are great and so is the quality of the paper. I won't hesitate to purchase Doodlebug products in the future. Very happy with my purchase.

I like my cardstock to have some weight to it and these are perfect! Love the quality of Jillibean and I won't hesitate to purchase their products in the future. I used these on cards, and they mixed and matched with other primary colors wonderfully! Very happy with my purchase!

These pettite 1" flowers are so pretty! I love the various shades of pink, so versatile. They make fantastic bummer flowers on layouts and really shine on cards. You won't be disappointed!

These sequins are so pretty! I love that there is a mix of hearts and cups, large and small sequins. These would be perfect on any project but would work especially well in shaker cards. Very pleased with my purchase!

I love these Echo Park papers. They are perfect for card making and mix and match with so many other spring paper pads. The weight and quality of the paper is nice too. I've very happy with this purchase!

I'm using these to make up cards to donate to sb's "Cards for Kindness" initiative. They made perfect cards for kids who need a little pick me up! So fun , bright and happy!

I love Nuvo Crystal Drops and these are stunning! The middle one, Lilac Whisper, is a glitter drop and WOW its really pretty! Very happy with these.

These brushes are simply amazing for blending all kinds of ink. I've used them on distress, distress oxides and hybrid inks and they perform flawlessly. You can vary the pressure and get a light dusting or use a heaver hand and get a rich application of ink. They are super soft and thick, very flexible, and this sample size isn't too small or too large. These brushes clean up nicely with soap and water and don't leave circular marks like daubers can. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase!

Diamond Stickles is a must have for any paper crafter. Its my only go to for a touch of sparkle that really gets noticed. I have over a dozen different glitter glues and Diamond Stickles out shines the others by far! The base glue dries clear and the flake in it has a soft iridescent shine that really sparkles like no other Stickles. You can't go wrong with Diamond!

I received the "candy shop pink" free with your promotion and decided to give it a try. I was very pleased with the quality of the ink and the color was fantastic too. It was rich, juicy and made a wonderful impression. I'm very happy with this "freebie" and look forward to purchasing my favorite colors in the near future! Thanks SB!

You've got to love this charming stamp! Getting "happy mail" is always a delight! Now imagine getting a card that announces that you've been sent a "Paper Hug!" Its perfect! Can't wait to use it!

This is so cute! Love the clean cuts and it makes a perfect rainbow every time!

Pretty puffy clouds or are they snow drifts, or rolling shrubbery? They are all those things and more! Can't wait to create some fun cards using these great dies.

This is great stuff for stenciling and mixed media work. I have had this previously, but not in this small size. Be aware that its only 2 ozs. which is just under a 2" x 2" jar. It does go a long way, so hopefully this will last me a while.

These 3D Doodle Pops are so darling! They would make a great addition to any fun layout or card!

I just received these and they are BEAUTIFUL! I was pleasantly surprised at how large they are (2.25"long x 1.25 wide x 1" deep). The heft, quality, and fine detail make these a one-of-a-kind treasure. They do make perfect planner clips, however I'm hoping to use them to hold a closure ribbon on a mini album I've got in mind. As long as your after something a bit on the large size, these will not disappoint!

Graphic 45 has out done themselves with these stunning roses! I love that you get a variety of sizes and they offer so many color choices! No matter how you plan to use them, they are very high quality and you will not be disappointed!

I love my IOD moulds by Prima. This rose has so much depth and detail, its just stunning! Can't wait to create something special with it!

I love these 49th and Market flowers! The larger ones have their own leaves attached and the smaller ones on their own stems. This makes designing flower clusters so easy and fun! These cream colored ones have a hint of yellow to them making them a perfect match for your vintage style projects!

49th and Market does it again with these gorgeous flowers! I love that the large ones are grouped together with their leaves and the smaller ones are on their own stems. they make designing pretty flower clusters so easy and fun!

I love this beautiful mix of ivory and linen colored flowers! The quality is amazing and does not disappoint! A must have for my stash!

I've just received my Love Notes collection and the chip board pieces are a wonderful addition to a stunning collection! These will make great additions to my cards or a mini album!

I've never been one to buy the standalone stickers but I do get them with the collection packs. I have always reinforced my stickers with cardboard, turning them into a chippy; or with cardstock so they can popped up on a card or project. As usual, they have gorgeous graphics and sentiments to make your projects shine!

Just received my collection of Love Notes Patterns and Solids and I have to say that the rich colors and soft creams are so striking! I'll be using these in a lot of different ways! Can't wait to mix these with G45's new gorgeous red and cream roses!

I just received my collection of Love Notes products and these Ephemera Cards are stunning! I really love the graphics and sentiments on them! They will make perfect cards or a mini album, just can't wait to dig into them.

Gorgeous graphics and striking colors made these must have papers for me! Thank you Graphic 45, you never disappoint!

Love these 49th and Market flowers, so very pretty!

These are perfect for showcasing center pieces on mini albums. I love it and highly recommend this gorgeous frame!

Carta Bella is one of my favorite paper manufactures, with their very heavy weight thickness at 110lbs. However, the Ephemera die cuts are standard weight 80lb paper, so that was a bit unexpected. I was hoping for there normal thick weight so I could make tags out of them. I can still do it, just need to add some chipboard backing and I'll have just what I wanted!

These are darling dies that make perfectly beautiful tea themed cards or layouts. I highly recommend, there just too cute!

What a classy style holiday trim or any occasion that calls for a bit of vintage perfection! Its high quality, doubled or rather flat knitted tube trim. Perfect for Valentines, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day and Christmas. Its also perfect for summer and fall layouts too. Its vintage red color goes perfectly with G45 papers too!

Just what I needed as a finishing touch to my holiday cards! Its thick and sturdy, but not bulky when making bows. This Prima trim is sure to please, so I highly recommend!

I love these watercolors so much, I got the Pastel Dreams, Tropicals and Classics. They are so rich, thick and have vivid color. Just love them!

I'm new to watercolors, but these are fantastic! The color is rich, thick professional grade with mixing pans in and easy to go palette. The thing I notice most when these are dry compared to my student grade paints is this paint doesn't have a chalky feel to it at all. Whereas my student grades do have a chalky feel, literary. I guess that the difference between "student" and "professional" grade.

I love Prima's waxes, they go on smooth and a little bit goes a long way! It doesn't seem to matter what I'm working on a layout, card or OTP project, its so easy to apply to all sorts of products (paper, wood, metal) and the results are just beautiful!!!

I've always loved Kaisercraft papers, their images are darling. But, I've noticed since "Base Coat" that mfg has moved to China and the papers got very thin. They are now as thin as any open stock at the big box stores. I'm not happy to be paying designer prices for paper that feels very close to Xerox paper, especially when I can get that type of paper at a fraction of the cost. I love their graphics and really wish they would resume mfg. in Australia or improve the heft of the paper being mfg in China.

Very feminine collection of floral, tidbits of this and that for quotes, and a little bit of sewing themed items. Well rounded, pretty package of die cuts.

I love Graphic 45 papers and will fussy cut for hours to get the look I'm after. I saw these die cut into butterflies and loved them. I should have paid closer attention as I didn't realize that Floral Shoppe has only 4 duplicate patterns on the front and 4 on the back. I don't mind losing half the images so much, but I am disappointed that the graphics are difficult to fussy cut out any designs. Its pretty, but not their best graphic design work.

I heard some of my sb.com friends talking about how wonderful Prima's tags were and had to give them a try. WOW!!! These are so think, you'll love them for any mixed media work! I love Steampunk and its a style that lays on a lot of heavy metals and these tags don't have any trouble handling the weight. I highly recommend these tags for any style work! Thanks sb for always bring us the best products!

I love the rich color of these pretty sequins. I also like that there are different colors and sizes and it doesn't take much to made a shaker card festive with these lovely sequins. Very happy with my purchase.

If you're looking for beautiful thin papers you've found it! The prints are pretty, but the heft of the paper is too thin for my purposes. These papers would be perfect for covering composition books or on paper folding projects. These papers would need reinforcement if creating a layout and might be okay for layering cards. Kaisercraft papers were made in Australia. However, Rose Ave. was made in China. I'm giving this product 1 star because it didn't meet my expectations, however, SB.com customer service earned a 5 star rating for how well they handled my situation. Thank you sb.com!

True confession: I'm the worlds worst stamper! So when Tonic and Misti hit the scene, I was so excited about buying one of them. After researching both, I decided that Tim Holtz's platform was the perfect choice for me. I'm super impressed with Tim's no fuss dual purpose design (cards and layouts) and the quality of its construction is honestly a vintage throwback to the old rotary phones! The magnets are thick and strong. They don't pinch my fingers or seem prone to breakage. It's definitely not a 'me too' tool and I could go on and on about its thoughtful design, ease of use, superior quality and excellent value. I especially love that it's designed in a way that it doesn't require any consumables to remain useful. I also love the fact that I can use spray inks without worrying about clean-up or damaging the plastic plates. Even thought its sturdy and hefty, its light weight enough to easily stash in my card class tote or take on a crop. I'm amazed at how easy it is to create remarkably detailed images perfectly, layer after layer, color after color, press after press! The Stamp Platform by Tim Holtz has exceeded all of my expectations, put the fun back into stamping for me and its by far the most useful tool I've purchased in a long, long time! If you love stamping, this tool will not disappoint!

This is one of the prettiest color spays, especially for vintage, shabby or Victorian styles. Its one of my favorites in the entire Prima line! Its so versatile and it glistens perfectly! Wonderful for all types of mixed media or art journaling pages too! You'll love having this color on hand!

I make a lot of mini books and use my Big Shot a lot so when I need a 6" cut, all of my portable trimmers stop roughly between 5 to 51/2 inches making it really rough to get perfect 6" cuts every time. By the time I get the fold out arm straight and fuss with the ruler, I'm always off a smidgen which is no big deal for Big Shot sheets, but its a huge deal when your trying to cut perfect pages for mini albums.

I've had this several weeks now and I LOVE the fact that I can make a full 6" cut on the main platform without having to open and fuss with the arm extension. And, wow these cuts come out perfect! every time! Love the prer-measured standard measurements outlined on the platform. They make measuring and cutting very simple.

The size is great for portability, the rubber feet keep the platform from slipping which is perfect and the finger smudge guard is just the right size to hold my papers in place while I cut. I haven't had any trouble with the guide wire, it shows you exactly where your cut is going to be make which makes exact cuts easy to do, time after time. Its a 'must have tool' you're sure to be very happy with! I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this again or recommend it to friends.

One package gives you lots and lots of these little coordinating beauties! The are so special with their little touch of center bling, I plan to use them all over my next mini album! Thank you again for this beautiful Seashore collection Prima! On of my favorite collection to come along in a long time! <3

Very creative with beautifully embossed petals, button centers and fun sentiment flags. Love them! Thank you Prima! <3

High quality chipboard and stunning graphics! The possibilities are endless! Thank you for such a beautiful collection Prima, Can't wait to get started on my next project! <3

These papers are heavy weight and high quality graphics, but remember these are only single sided. Love the seashore theme and card, ATC, pockets, envelope and mini book possibilities are endless! I do wish Prima would add an 8 x 8 double sided pad to their already wonderful collections. They are just unstoppable! Love the whole collection and its coordinating tags, flowers, sentiments, stamps....you get the picture. You won't be disappointed! <3

The possibilities are endless! Thank you for this beautiufl line Prima. Keep them coming! <3

I was presently surprised at the high quality graphics and hefty weight of Prima's 12 x 12 paper pads. The papers will make perfect mini albums or can be used on any project that requires a heavy weight double sided paper. I am so happy with this pad and its wonderful coordinating embellishments, I can't wait to get started on a few summer projects! Thank you for a gorgeous collection Prima, keep them coming! <3

I have the same exact problem described by the other reviewer. I can not get either of these sets to cut property even with wax paper, extra shims, multiple passes, smooth paper vs textured, all are a bust! Going to contact Spellbinders instead as I believe these are defective. Mine cut down the long sides but not on the short sides. Seems like the cutting edges are not deep enough to break the paper cleanly. I am hoping this batch is defective and that they can replace with new ones that work properly. I'd hate to lose them because they are amazingly beautiful! bbl to tell you how it all worked out.

Perfect collection to bring out the romance in your layouts or cards! Nice good quality medium heavy papers. Lots of cute cut outs too! Thank you Echo Park for such a sweet collection!

I absolutely LOVE this new collection by Fancy Pants! Beautiful rich color palette with lots of extras! Love the extra pink corrugated paper and rich red sparkly paper! All double sided with a great mix of adorable graphics. Medium weight, smooth textured paper which is very suitable for layouts, cards or other paper crafts. I expect that its medium weight and smooth texture will cut like butter on the Cricut too! I plan to use this collection for my Valentine's Day Card Crop with my scrappy friends. Thanks so much for the beautiful collection Fancy Pants!

Beautiful soft vintage baby tones are perfect for scraping your little one! The quality is excellent, the graphics are stunning and pages very verseital. Can be used for a boy or a girl. Love, love, love this collection!!!

Love these new papers from Bo-Bunny! Nice quality, beautiful designs, great embelishments, stickers and chippies! I had to get the whole line so I could use them on some up coming wedding pages !

These daubers were just introduced to me as an addition to distressing ink pads. I was applying my 2 X 2 ink pads directly to the paper and couldn't get the control I wanted using that technique. Then a friend told me about these litte life savers!!! Slip them on your finger tip, dab them in your ink pad, and discress the edges of your work with excellent control and results!!! A must have for any scrapper who distresses!!! Enjoy...

These are the cutiest chipboard accents for your fun "fur baby" layouts! The colors are bright and the chipboard is of excellent quality!!! Enjoy...

I purchased this stack because it offered all the little goodies (tags, alphas, stickers, etc. which means it's an excellent choice for the beginner! I purchased this for my daughter who has two grown sons to scrap and I'm sure she'll adore having all the goodies she needs to complete a layout! It's a great value too!!!

When ever I need a masculine touch, I just add a little bit of brick to my layout's background and this does the trick! They are so easy to work with and you get fantastic results every time!!! At their price point, they are an excellent value too!!!

I was amazed at how detailed and beautiful these flowers are! They are a bit rustic with their fabric but the jewels are just the perfect touch! Love them!!!

I bought this for my daughter who is just learning to scrap. She doesn't know too much about flowers so this was a fantastic collection to start her out with. When I opened the "jug" and poured them out for my daughter to look at she went bonkers over these sweet mullberry flowers of all types, sizes, colors and shapes. At the price point, these can't be beat for beginners and experienced scrapers! You really get your money's worth with this item!!!

This collection of papers is just beautiful! Rich colors, very heavy cardstock, fantastic graphics. If you travel or love to scrap using vintage feeling papers, you will not be disappointed!!!

MSC coud have made this tool a bit more user friendly from my perspective. I've had it for a about a 6 weeks now, so here's what i learned. You've got to watch the MSC video to figure out how it works and even then NO one tells you that the slide is a locking mechnisium for the blade button (small one) which has teeth in it to lock the button down. With the tool flat on the desk you must first pull the small button UP BEFORE you slide it into place or you wiil break the small teeth out of your unit. This cutter MUST be used with a cutting pad! If you do it right it works perfect!

Love this amazing package of buttons! You get plenty too! Great value to add to your stash!

This will not disappoint!!! They are just beautiful!

Very easy to use!

Excellent stickers to choose from!

Lot' of creative sentiments to use.

I purchased this paper trimmer two years ago and it's still sharp as a razor. I've crafted several albums with it and you can easily read the grids, line up your papers square and the added feature of the laser light lets you make sure your LO is exactly where you want it for a great cuts time after time.

2020 Update: I've now owned this cutter for 11 years! It's well worth the money. Its self sharpening and next to my big shot, it's the main workhorse in my craftroom. I LOVE this trimmer!

While these mini books are designed to scrap as albums, I plan to use them as templates to cut out shapes for my LO's.

While these are designed to be mini albums, I love the shapes of the pages so I got them to use as templates for cut outs to use in my LO's!

Can't wait to try them!

These are sized very nicely with quite an array to choose from. I'm sure you'll be seeing these on my work more often!

This butterfly is so beautiful and not overly delicate to scrap with too. Just lovely!

Used this on my daughters graduation picture LO and it was just awesome!

Lot's of choices in this pack. Great Value!

I'm very new to this site and on-line shopping. I didn't realize this type of flower punch was for 3D work! Ugh! I fiddled and fiddled with this pucnh and unfortunately decided I had to return it because the flowers were just to bulky for scrapbooking for me. I'd recommend this puch to advanced 3D users though.
