Joan, how are you using the metallic paper? I ordered some to use with my wizard/cuttlebug, but haven't done it yet. I'm never sure if you have to follow through
on the card with more metallic paper. I should do a gallery view.

I haven't used it yet, but it is on my wish list because I think it would be awesome embossed!
__________________ Dear Paperlicious is my blog...with a series on how I'm learning to improve my cardmaking by studying others.
Papertrey: all the ribbons in all the colors, the CHA exclusive stamp set and/or the first anniversary stamp set, and "too many to count" copic markers that coordinate with the PTI colors.
Martha Stewart: punches: pine branch and several border punches
Zutter: Bind-it-All with accessaries
I could go on and on...my list is long as I am just getting back into crafting and stamping!
1). More Spellbinder dies/nesties since it always seems as if the few I have are never the ones I need
2). Been eyeing the Slice. Not sure if I would use it as much as I think I would. But this is a wish list, not a "let's be practical" list
3). Some Sizzix dies
and of course this does not include the stamp wish list
Don't have it, want it, would love it, and all I can do is dream about it (cuz accommodating it would require a serious (home) remodel to my studio, which is basically the size of a walk in closet, LOL!)
But, that's what Christmas wishin' is for, eh?! ;)

Oh my hero!! A girl after my own heart!!! Me too!! I drool over that page in every catty that comes to my door.
Wishing, indeed! Big ticket items I will probably never have.
1. Cricut -- Expression (with an alphabet cart or two!)
2. Sizzix -- Big Shot (ditto on the alphabets)
3. Elfa (Container Store) shelving system to store it all!
What a great thread! It's fun to dream . . .

1. Crafty Secrets: the little stamp sets that are only sold with their postcard kits (don't want the kits, just the stamp sets)
2. Magnolias: any Tildas or Edwins
3. Rubbernecker: any three stamps on this page: http://www.rubbernecker.com/p-1498-fantasy.aspx (except for the ones I already have)

Wouldn't that be nice?!?! I have such junkie tables in my craft room now, I think I would be afraid of ruining something that nice.
1. Lifestyle craft- Letterpress
2. Sissix Big Shot
3. Copic- all the colors I don't have.
I love the idea of elves to clean my craft room. It would take numerous ones to tackle that. I would like more time to stamp (less to have to work a real job) too.
Those of you that have a corner chomper, is it worth it? How much do you use it? That is an iffy on my list.
I'm torn on asking for more of the dauber Adirondack paints, I have some, haven't used them.
AND of course stamps....do I need more? Absolutely not but there are still some I don't have in my collection of unused rubber.
I would recommend starting with a standard shape for the Nesties - circles, squares, ovals or rectangles -- taking into account your collection of stamps. A great way to get the full sets of these is by using a VIP coupon from ucutathome -- the sets of 4 are about $79 and then 40% off of that.
Once you start collecting them, you may never go back -speaking from experience here.

I need to ask- where to start with nestabilities...

I LOVE it! I think it's definitely worth it--so nice to be able to round through several layers of card stock in one swoop! I just got another one with the shipping tag and photo corner designs on it!

Wish I could say I'm crazy about 'em, but, I've only got the white one--I wanted to see how it would work for stamping white onto dark colored card stock. It did not perform well for that particular use, and definitely not with detailed stamps. I dunno that I'd like the look with solid stamps, either, but, then I wanted a clean, crisp impression. I shook the bottle well, before applying it, but, it was watery and not thicker like the acrylic paints I've always bought at the craft store. :(
However, for painting directly onto things like chipboard, etc. it probably works very well.
It's also possible I got a bum one.

I have the exact OPPOSITE problem. The paint in mine is so thick I give myself cramps (i have quite severe tendonitis) squeezing the darned thing!! :twisted:

Wow... I would love what Julie's dreaming about too!! Drooling here.
1. Stampin'Up! - lots of stuff so my official wish is for money to spend with my demo.
2. Gina K. Designs - Pure Luxury Cardstock (heavy and layering weights); Bow-Easy (despite lots of tutorials and practice my bows are still pathetic so it's time for a tool); EZ Chalk Enhancer.

Bummer!!! Well, I can imagine what a pain that is cuz I have tendinitis, too. :( The one I got almost gushes out the dauber, and with very little squeezing. :shock:
Sounds like a manufacturing inconsistency then. :?
