Caraboo's Reviews

I didn't have any other machine but I wanted something simple to use. This is the best. The cards are easy to insert in the machine. The blade is simple to change. (I have already done it all by myself!!) It is very portable and lightweight. I love this thing!! I haven't had any problems with it at all. I look forward to getting more design cards and using this handy little cutter machine for years to come!!

This is the second paper packet I have bought from Crate Paper. I was not been disappointed either time. The quality of their paper is wonderful. The paper is very thick and the colors on these pages are great! There is a good variety...some bright pages and some that are more muted. Crate Paper remains one of my favorites!

This paper packet is wonderful. The paper is very thick - thicker than some brands of cardstock. I ordered this online so I didn't see the true colors until it arrived. They are wonderful. Suitable for girls and boys.I have used this cardstock in layouts for small children and in cards for adults. It works great for a variety of subjects. Love this paper...will definitely try other Crate Paper products!

I checked out a lot of trimmers before buying this one. I really love that it folds out to a 12 x 12 size. When folded I still find it compact and light enough to travel. The ruler really helps me keep the paper perfectly still for precise cuts. The self-sharpening blade is also a plus. Definitely a good buy!

Love, love, love this paper! I wasn't sure about this paper initially because I don't normally pick this color combo. I wanted to try something new so I bought it and used it with some pictures of my daughter playing outside on a gorgeous sunny day. The paper looks great! A friend saw and bought it to use with pics of her son and it looks good there too. Very versatile paper and Daisy D's is always a good quality.

I have two of these...one for brads and one for eyelets and snaps. The Craft Mates organizer is really easy to use and a good size to take with you to crops. There are four caddies inside and each can be individually removed which is great if you don't want to take the whole organizer with you.

I like to have all the basics - patterned paper, cardstock, pictures etc. - all planned out before I start working on a new page...especially if I am going somewhere else to scrapbook. These page planners are great because you can easily put lots of paper etc in one, put it in your bag and go! The planner card is really helpful because you can list possible page titles, make sure you have all the supplies you need for the page, sketch the page layout and make journalling notes. The page planner is also good for storing pages you haven't quite finished yet. Love these things...will have to get more!

If you are looking for something to hold small eyelets, brads etc. then this organizer is perfect. Small enough to take the whole organizer with you or just pick the individual embellishments you need and leave the rest at home!
