4 Adhesives I recommend

Bearly Arts glue is a great, strong craft glue. The formula is a little thinner than others allowing it flow through the fine tip applicator. This is my go-to glue and I think you’ll love it too.

Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive by Tonic Studios is one of my favorite liquid glues. It doesn’t clog, it dries clear and it’s super strong.

A Strong double sided tape is a great tool. This is my favorite and it comes in several sizes.

A light, dry adhesive is a great option. This is a Dot Runner and I usually use it for adhering lighter elements and the inside card panels.

Other adhesives I use

Here are the 3 sizes of double sided tape I regularly reach for. And it’s bundled in a variety pack.

Ranger Multi Medium in the Matte finish is a great glue designed to work on a variety of surfaces. The best part?? It dries matte so there is no shine showing if you get glue where you don’t want it.

I love these foam squares for anything small that I want to pop up for dimension. This pack includes 2 sizes and is also available in black.

3M foam tape is a popular foam option that comes on a roll. It’s strong and easy to tear. A great option for larger areas to cover.

My Favorite Tools

I’ve tried many paper trimmers and this is the best. This is the Tim Holtz trimmer. It has a self sharpening blade so it never needs replacing.

This is a Jewel Picker. It has a wax tip that will pick up and then release small items. Used for paper, sequins, jewels and lots more!

My FAVE white gel pen! I’ve tried many and I recommend this one.

A bone folder is used to fold paper at a crease. I use this one because it moves smoothly over the paper and gives a crisp fold, even on my heaviest card stock.

https://amzn.to/39sPJr9

There are a lot of great snips available. This is just one of the good ones that I use.

https://amzn.to/3t3fcPL

I use Reverse Tweezers to hold onto items. It’s great for keeping my fingers out of the way.

https://amzn.to/3cn9F0j

A Score Tool is to add score/fold lines to your project. I use this for my card bases and to add decorative lines to my projects.

My Favorite Big Ticket Items

This is the Misti Stamp positioner. It holds the stamp on the door and allows you to repeat stamp as needed. There are other styles of stamp positioners but this is my favorite. It has been a game changer for me as far as stamping goes and well worth the investment. It is available in the Original size or the Mini.

The Tim Holtz trimmer comes in a Large size also. It has a removable side arm to measure up to 12 inches of cutting width. It uses a self sharpening blade so it never needs to be replaced. I use this trimmer the most and I love it!

For die cutting I use the Gemini Jr. electric machine. It cuts beautifully and because it’s electric, it saves me the time and effort of hand cranking. It’s fabulous.

https://amzn.to/2MF3NF7

A Lot of my cutting is done on my Cricut Maker. It allows me to cut multiple images at once and save me SO much time and effort. This is pricey, and there are other versions that are wonderful. But this has been a worth while investment for me! I love it.
