Make some non-stamped cards!

When I travel I experiment with cards that don’t use much stamping. I’ve tried spirelli, embroidery, tea bag folding, origami and iris folding. Before I go, I punch a pile of spirelli circles and/or...

re: Flattening jewelry

Great idea! I have some old earrings that are too bulky to use on cards but would be fun for other projects.

What type of 'sandwich' do you use? thanks

Smile Wizard/Grand Calibur vs. Big Shot

Oh, I didn't realize that the Grand Calibur by Spellbinders was replacing the Wizard. Thanks for the heads up.

So I'll revise my question: I know that the Grand Calibur can use larger thin dies....

Question Do I need the Wizard if I have the Big Shot?

I have both the Wizard and the Big Shot machines. But I never use the Wizard, because I find the Big Shot so much easier to use.

Is there anything that you can do with the Wizard that you can't do...

Wow--the freezer! I never would have thought of that, as I was pursuing the heat route. The microwave does a fabulous job of making the adhesive soft on most of my stamps, but on some only part the...

Smile Stamping text images on EZ mount

Hi again,
Great idea about putting the name of the stamp on the card the stamp is stored on; I never thought about writing on the storage panels!

It is true that for text images if you use the...

Smile Putting your image onto EZ mounted stamps.

I found this solution on youtube: Remove your stamp from the wood mount and place it onto the EZ mount. Cut it out. Stamp the image onto a flat plain piece of rubber (I had better luck using an...

Question How do you center your punches?

I love the look of a stamped image in a larger scalloped circle or flower punch. But for the life of me, I can't get my images lined up evenly. I stamp the image, turn my punch upside down, try to...

I think that the basic kit is one of the long dies and one of the small dies. The long die makes the card itself, and the small die cuts out the window. The magnet holds the small die in place, so...

Fabulous idea!

Brilliant! I think I'll try a report cover or even a page protector, cut to the size of the card. That way I can use repositionable tape to hold the card and the folder to the acetate, to keep them...
