Stampin' Trimmer

If you want a well-made paper trimmer that does more than your current paper cutter, then pay attention. Stampin' Up has a paper trimmer that does what you need - and more.

• An extra-wide 6-1/4" cutting base and an extended 14-1/2" ruler
• The extra-wide cutting base provides a large work area and is marked in 1/4" (4 mm) increments, allowing for small measurements.
• The right-side grid helps you measure and cut very thin strips.
• The extended cutting arm has a stabilizing leg to provide a sturdy and steady cutting surface for longer cuts.
• When fully extended, the extended cutting arm sits flush with the trimmer base, providing more accurate and consistent measurements across the entire surface.

• The cutting base and track include a full ruler, incorporating measurements down to 1/16" and grid lines that mark each quarter inch.
• All rulers and measurements on the base are printed under a plastic cover so your measurements won't wear off.
• The base has nonskid feet, which keeps the Stampin' Trimmer securely in place on your work area.
• A full 12" cutting and scoring track
• The extra-long cutting track has space at the top and bottom so you don't have to take the cutting and scoring blades out when you're not using them.
• The track gives you enough space to cut or score a full 12" (30.5 cm) without having to remove or switch out handles.
• The cutting track locks in place for secure storage or transport.
• The track includes an insertion point for cutting and scoring blade handles so you can easily insert handles into the cutting track.

• Specially designed handles and cutting track to ensure straight cuts
• The hook on the scoring and cutting blade handles keeps the handles stable so the cuts are as straight as possible.
• Handles come in two colors: dark for cutting, light for scoring.
• The precision tip on the cutting blade allows you to pinpoint precisely where you're cutting.
• The point on the side of each handle shows you where the blade will cut, making it easy to see exactly where your cuts and scores will begin.
• Storage compartment under base

• The storage compartment holds scoring and cutting tools such as a Bone Folder, Simply Scored Stylus, extra scoring and cutting blades, and even business cards.
• Separate compartments within the storage compartment keep your tools organized, and the clear cover makes it easy to see what you've stored.

Have you ever wanted to keep a favorites list of crafting sites - but not go through the process of weeding them out every time one of them dropped off the planet or a brand new delightful site joined the universe? Welllll, now you don't have to fret. You can have your very own Paper Crafts Directory without having to do the work. A number of sites actually do the work for you - and they categorize the paper crafting sites for you. You can bookmark one site, or a couple, and just visit them instead of having to search and search or worse - store your own favorites and hope they are alive and well when you go back to check them.

Take this site for instance: Craft Site Directory They offer a great directory of paper crafting sites categorized down the right hand side of the page. They even show snapshots of what each site looks like so you can get a quick look before you click.

Here is another site which has a Directory for Arts and Crafts: DMOZ Arts and Crafts Directory. While there are not a lot of sites shown, this directory is known for only admitting sites that are non-scammy and top of the line.

One more Crafts Directory is: Hot vs. Not. This site has been around a long time and has always been pretty good. Most directories try to keep their lists up-to-date so that visitors are able to click through to the information they need and not be disappointed.

Maybe you'll find a few new sites that sparks some new interests. Enjoy!

Stampin' Up! Watercolor Pencils

This post falls under the heading of "These are a few of my favorite things."

I love Stampin' Up! Watercolor Pencils. There. That's it.

Ok. There is more. Much more.

Each of these 24 richly pigmented pencils is amazingly versatile. Use them dry or use them with a dampened brush. Use them dry and then add a little water such as with a blender pen and you'll achieve a watercolor effect. They are easy to use, soft and are easy to handle. I love them! They last forever.

I'll be sure to post some images of cards I make using these watercolor pencils so you can see just how wonderful they are. I'm sorry I don't have one handy. I promise. I'll get on it! ;)

Blessings!

My Dining Room Crafting Workspace

My humble workspace at the moment is our dining room table. Even though the table surface seems to be able to weather just about anything, I still like to use my Stampin' Up! grid paper to protect the surface - and help me keep my projects "square" or "level". I was always one of those kids who wrote up hill on the chalkboard in school - because I needed a guide.

So, I set out the items I'm going to be using - or at least think I'm going to be using - and then start thinking about who I'm going to be making my project for (or what I'm going to be making my project about).

In this picture, I have already started on a card. I selected a Stampin' Up! stamp set, but I couldn't decide if I wanted to use it or not. I hadn't even put the set together yet! I like letting an idea take shape. Sometimes I have to walk away from a project for awhile. When I come back to it, an answer to "What's next?" always seems to be waiting for me. I hope you are enjoying your crafting. Blessings!
