What could you not live without?
So let's hear it: what stamping product could you absolutely not live without?
Mine would be my Cuttlebug and Nesties; I use them on too many cards to count!! My little Fiskars cutter is also a top fav - so easy to use!!
What are your 'must-have' products?

I'd have to say my Xyron machines. I like layers and the Xyron is the best for sticking them down and keeping them stuck.

My scor pal and cuttlebug. But that is assuming that cardstock, stamps, and ink are a given!

I was going to say DH until I reread the question and it said "stamping related". But he does drive me to all the craft stores when we visit the US!!
So it's:
Cuttlebug and Nesties

My clear fine embossing powder and black ink. I emboss almost all my images, and if it isn't outlined with black ink, I use versamark, which I keep a large pad, small pad, pen and refil. I might be a tad bit obsessed with it. lol. So I guess my heat embosser would be something I wouldn't get by without, ever. I also use that for other things as well.

Japanese Screw Punch -- can punch various size holes anywhere. A bit pricey but I've had it for years and years...

Scor Pal, then my Tonic cutter.
And high quality cardstock.
I think I'd quit making cards if I could not have those three items.

Dimensional tape for me. I can't remember the last time I made anything without adding a little dimension to it!

The first is of course the rubberstamps. Most of my cards have either images or sentiments that are stamped. Next on the list is clear sparkle ep, dp, nesties/ef and big shot.

Hands down it would be my Big Shot with my dies and my emossing folders. How did we make cards before we were interested in ef?!

Another vote for the Big Shot. I often wonder how I got along without it!! My favorite folder right now is the Spider Web from the SU Holiday Mini, I love Halloween and have been using it on everything.
Great thread!!!:p

things I find that I always have to have near me is my mini sized paper trimmer (I use the small size one from creative memories, it's just the right size, the others are just too bulky or not accurate enough), ALWAYS must have my bone folder, a good sharp pair of scissors in large and small, a mini size black ink pad, and the thing that pokes through paper....lol can't think of it's name, but a hole punch doesn't always go where I need it, so I just use this thing to make a hole where I want one!
I love the other things (dies, nesties,.....) but the things above are MUST haves.
Cheers, Holley

Oh, and my Stamp-a-majig! I can't stamp a straight sentiment to save my life so I use SAJ on almost every card. Funny thing is, it sat in my drawer for a year because I couldn't figure out how to use. Once I figured it out there was no turning back!

Joan, can you show us a picture of your Japanese Screw Punch. It sounds like a very interesting tool. I have never heard/seen it before.
Thanks,
