I HIGHLY recommend checking out the comments section here; you all leave the BEST craft tips and I'd love for you to get the maximum from this video. Feel free to share your favorite alternative supplies you've discovered so we can all learn from one another.

@jordanas3750 4 месяца назад

Just a point of clarification when you say you're going to be using or showing craft hacks or craft supplies, you should note that you are talking about paper crafting. I watched the entire video, and other than the tape dispensers. I don't use a single item for any of the projects I work on. Not one of the products you noted do I use. I think they're great for people who work on paper projects, but I do fiber, gemstones/beads, and wood projects. This is collection of products that I could not use. Sorry again except for the tape.

The good news is that RU-vid is a veritable wealth of information shared by all manner of talented crafters. I can’t remember the names of any of those folks at the moment, as I don’t dabble in the crafts of your choice, but I’m sure they’re just a search away. Be well, Jordana!

@sharon94503 5 месяцев назад

I would like to contribute...instead of paying outrageous costs for craft branded embossing powders, instead search for professional 'thermo graphic powders" that printing businesses use to make those embossed business cards and invitations. It will be WAY cheaper to buy bulk for common ones like clear, black, gold, silver & white. A few years back I purchased a 1 POUND jar each of silver, gold and clear for around $30. Do the math on that based on a 1 oz. jar at Michaels.

I absolutely love acetate for many uses: shakers, embossing, mini-albums, etc but it gets pricey. So I came across acetate rolls that are marketed to be used as wraps around fancy desserts or cakes! (Cake collars) I got a 4” wide roll that’s 394” long or right at 33 FEET long! And it’s a really nice weight! Works perfect for embossing, shakers, all the uses I want and I paid $6.94 on Amazon!

Hello! I shop thrift stores for crafty stuff and I have boxes of acetate sheets that are used for overhead machines for presentations. I have gotten several boxes ( only the Lord knows why so much) for 2$ a box of 100. I have found die sets ($35 per set) for $2.25. Reams of copy paper in different colors for inserts of cards that I create the sentiment and print out. I just joined a scrapbooking group where most of the group makes cards so I can share my stash.

@Kythera1976 5 месяцев назад

Just a note - most materials safe for laser printers (vellum, acetate sheets etc) will be heat safe for embossing with minimal warping, if any. Laser printers are essentially embossing the laser powder on the sheet, so the surface needs to stand up to the heat of the printer's fuser. And you can get 100 packs of laser transparency sheets for pretty cheap.

A tip I find useful with my family. I have scissors for different jobs. I don't want my sewing scissors used for opening kitty litter. I wrote on the scissors in black marker the job or room the scissors are for.This has saved my sanity and no more ruined sewing scissors. 🌲🌺🌲

@gailrodgers3079 Месяц назад

With no kids left in the house, my scissors stay where I leave them! My husband understands scissors and would never use my scissors without permission. One thing that helped was getting two sets of knives, both with kitchen scissors included, so handy for opening bags, clipping coupons, etc. All scissors upstairs are for my crafts/sewing.

On one hand I hate offering additional funding to a country that quite possibly has designs on its neighbor (Taiwan), but nearly e v e r y item offered to us from the crafting industry all comes from the same source anyway, so I’ll just put it out there … TEMU has a wide range of craft products and, TO AMERICA, shipping is free. And, unlike the hit-or-miss delivery we got from “foreign vendors” on ebay, they deliver in relatively short order, and no missed items (so far). Just saying …

@artcreationsbydar 4 месяца назад

@@kkrolf2782 Temu is great but watch after awhile the stuff you get will go up in price quite a bit. After you have been buying for while they up the price. Plus I have also noticed that they sell patented items, like so much of Tim Holtz. Maybe Tim is aware, maybe not. 🤷‍♀️ I must admit I have gotten some pretty cook gadgets from Temu for a great price!

@grammyet 5 месяцев назад

Love seeing all the alternative products that are definitely good enough for us casual hobby crafters. I am not concerned about archival quality since I don't sell my crafts or expect them to last forever. One thing I have found that is excellent for alcohol ink is the back of cheap photo printer paper. The front is made with a clay or some substance that grips and holds the dye printer ink, and that is wonderful. BUT the back is usually plastic and non-name brand companies don't usually print their company name on the back. The ink moves around so nicely and is easily re-wet with the addition more ink. Plus the alcohol ink dries perfectly on them. The dollar stores often have large packs for very small amount. Also when going to crops or craft days, it is best to not take along a lot of your expensive tools since they can get lost in the shuffle. Things like the makeup sponges and clips is a good idea as well since they don't take up a lot of space and you can save space in your tool kit. Cheers! I have subscribed and an off to see more of your videos! 😊

@marypolancodesigns 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for sharing these tips; they are great. I have used the back of photo paper as well and it worked wonderfully. I'm so glad you're joining me here. :)

@SandraMilne 5 месяцев назад

There are two types of transperancy sheets…laser printer ones take heat while ink jet ones are not so heat friendly. I buy these sheets at thrift stores :) Duralar sheets ( got at Michael’s using a coupon) are great for alcohol inks and heat embossing as well are thick enough to use as acetate in shakers

@jeanettenagel1187 5 месяцев назад

Your suggestion of syringes for liquid glue was FABULOUS! I bought and used them for a class of over 55 years never before card makers. I had the students glue a full face intricate die cut to watercolor paper (that they had colored with powder pigments and water) and the watercolor paper to a card front. The order of 10 syringes enabled almost everyone to have a glue filled syringe and were great in the size of the drop of glue for good adhesion! Your idea was great in that it taught me a lesson in alternative product use (after a lot of years) in which I passed on to my new card makers! A win all around! Thank you!

Mary I can't thank you enough for taking the time to do this video. I already have an order in my cart on Amazon for a lot of the recommended products. The glue syringes are my best hope for easy application. I have very severe RA. Diagnosed at age 21yrs. By forty had deformity. Now 60s severe deformity and weakness. Even the easy squeeze glue bottles are hard for me. But I refuse to give in to this disease and give up my card making and crafting. Plus, on a very fixed income, as most of us are, so many of the products you shared will let us continue our love of card making. Thanks so very much! It is greatly appreciated. I'm going for the stencil class, so excited! Thanks again. Love and hugs!

Love when you do these videos!!❤ I have gotten SO MANY great tips from you for my craftroom! I love the SBC tape dispenser...I have 2!! I'm am going to have to investigate the large one you showed!! My painters tape could have its own home (besides around my water bottle! 😂)

@marypolancodesigns 5 месяцев назад

I know, it is not a necessity as I"m sure your water bottle is working just find but goodness do I love all my dispensers now.
