I mentioned in my previous post that I submitted an entry to the Time for Tea Designs (T4TD) May Challenge. I decided I’d go ahead and create another card to improve my chances of getting a gift certificate (or even better a guest design spot). This time I wanted to show how you can foil your Digi Stamp to make it even more unique.… Read the rest

Exploring Digi Stamps
I used to scour the Internet for free Digi Stamps all the time. Mostly I was looking for images to color in my down time. I didn’t really do anything with them more than that and after a while I sort of forgot all about them… until now.
Recently, I became a premium member of Craft World, and as a perk, you get free Digi Stamps every month.… Read the rest
Tonic Studios Craft Kit – Worth It?
I’ve been subscribing to the Tonic Studios Craft Kit since June 2020 (#33). It’s been nearly a year, and I’m still a subscriber! Since starting my subscription, I’ve only skipped one box and that’s next month’s kit (#43). That surprised even me! I fully expected to skip maybe 2-3 boxes a year, but there’s just so much to love in each box, it’s hard to skip any of them.… Read the rest
F.L.I.P. Crafter’s Companion Craft Box #16 – Statement Word Edge’ables
This craft box was the first set of word edge’able dies I got from Crafter’s Companion. I love the look & effect these offer. It’s a great way to make the sentiment really special. Since using this box, I’ve tried the F.L.I.P. of Crafter’s Companion Box Kit #27 Modern Word Edge’ables as well, which I really loved.
Swatch Book Tutorial
In my Rose Quartz Swatchbook Share video, you saw the little mini swatchbook I created using the Tonic Studios Legacy Keepsake Wallet die set.
In these two videos, I’ll be showing you how to put these cute little albums together. There are two binding methods I use — one for my designer paper (which is more of a keepsake) and one for my solid cardstocks (which is more functional for coordinating papers).
Swatch Book Share – DCWV Rose Quartz
I’ve started to swatch all the papers in my stash — yep, ALL of them!!
I recently picked up the Tonic Studios Legacy Keeper Wallet Die set. It’s an older die set, so I don’t know where you can purchase it nowadays. I bought mine on Amazon.com not too long ago, but it looks like it’s unavailable now.… Read the rest
Motion Crafts – Animated Tag
This Motion Crafts Animated Tag kit is really fantastic! It’s useful well beyond the animated image feature. I got it directly from the Motion Crafts website, but I don’t know if it’s still available for sale.
The kit comes with everything you need to create fun, interactive, animated tags. There are a lot of things I love about it:
- This stamp & die set can be used for regular tags as well.
Merry Christmas to Me! I’ve Been Shopping Up a Storm…
I’ve been traveling visiting family since October and I’ll be honest, I’ve been doing a LOT of crafty shopping online. There were some great sales from Black Friday to Cyber Monday to end-of-year warehouse clearances, etc. I’m waiting for Tonic’s Jan 1 sale (they’ll be opening their vault) and then I’m going to give the credit card a well-deserved break.… Read the rest

Layered stencils are a new thing for me, so getting this kit was really exciting. There are a LOT of sets of layered stencils. They are all sorts of sizes so you can use them in a variety of ways.

- You can use these stencils separately if you like.
Motion Crafts – Small Card
After making the Small Envelope project (which I use as a gift card holder), I was hooked on these animated stamps by Motion Crafts. I buy them directly from the Motion Crafts website. These are fun, interactive projects that will surely be a lot of fun for whoever you give them to.
