Prima e-Line gems are wonderful! Great color selections, self adhesive, and most of all, for a crafter on a budget, the price is GREAT!!!

I really, REALLY love Platinum Stickles! It looks great with darker colors, distressing, and lighter metallics. I can honestly say it IS my 'go to' color of Stickles!!!

Just love Stickles, especially the 'clear' colors, because they match just about anything, and pick up the color it is applied to!

I hve several sets of these, and love them! Nice quantity for the price, and they add a great touch to my cards!

Yes, there are lots of fun things you can do with this cartridge! I'm still trying to figure out ways to use these wonderful diecuts!

Literally. You must have these to use your Cricut, but they wear out so fast! Love my cricut, so have to love my mats, too!

Adds such an elegant bit of texture to cards and other projects. And it's so easy to use!

I pull out this folder over and over again for cardmaking! It adds a fun and quirky bit of texture to cards that I love! Becky

The Cuttlebug is one of those tools you will use over and over! I love that you can use the spellbinders products with it, too!

As usual, Bo Bunny has out done themselves with the Alissa collection! This is one of my faves in the collection - great for cards because you can use both sides and they are coordinated perfectly.

I love this soft green, and as always the BB papers are great quality. Love it!

I love this whole Alissa collection! The colors are sweet, and as usual the papers are great quality. I also love that there are two different, but cordinating prints on each side. Great papers!

I've had the medium punch for a long time, but recently got this one and it's just great! I use it for smaller cards and ATC's to trim the corners in an instant. Love it!

Absolutely love these flowers! Colors are great - very clear, and make a big punch on your cards or layouts!

I just have to tell you, I LOVE these flowers! The paper they are made of is a thick, soft paper, and having the bling already on them is great! I have used them on several projects, and still have plenty for more. Love, Love, LOVE them!

These are the prettiest flowers! Lovely colors, and they are 'shaped' to make the most texture on a card. I'm not crazy about the dark centers, but I'll use them somewhere else and use other things for centers on the flowers. Overall, think they are great!

These are the cutest flowers, and the sweetest colors! The sizes are just right for adding a little punch, or can be grouped to add a big punch. Very cool!

Okay, I read the previous review, and, while I'm not totally overwhelmed with these little papers, I still love them for making my cards. I guess my main complaint is the colors are kind of 'muddy' and don't match anything. But they are overall, okay!

I just love these little pieces of paper for making my cards! Their 4 x 6 inch size make them perfect for adding color and texture to my cards. Wonderful!

This is such a fun color to use! A rich piney color with a hint of blue that goes well with many other colors. Love it!

I love the distress inks, although I only have a few. this is probably my favorite because it's such a rich color without being dark. It's kind of a rich light mahogany that is beautiful. Love it!

Really love using this for distressing and inking. The texture of the pad makes for fun patterns, too. Good product!

Nice brads - love the cool colors! Also love the 2 sizes.

Great stickers - pretty and good quality - just hate that the deer don't have legs. Kind of weird, you know?

I love this paper - the bold colors and stripes are great for cards.

This is such cute paper! Very nice thickness, too. The cute owl strip on the bottom is adorable!

Very pretty paper - love the reddish orange, yellow and blue. Nice and thick, too.

I really love this set. I've used several pieces on cards and they are really lovely. If you like pretty chipboard, you'll love this!

These are great for journaling and embellishing, especially if you want to add just a few words. Would recommend them!

Great way to get a pretty white color on chipboard, stamped text or images, most anything!

I just love this copper embossing powder! The color goes great with many other colors. Also, when heating it, you can get a smooth coat, or if you heat it a little more it looks like hammered copper, so you get 2 looks from 1 product. Love it!

I've been using this for probably 3-4 years, and it's by far the best adhesive I've ever found for affixing vellum if you don't want the adhesive to show! You have to really press it (I use the edge of my bone folder and spread it), but you'll get a great coverage and it holds very well. Great product!

I have several different FPD rub-ons, (these are probably my favorites) and I love the images - they are very pretty, trendy images and look great on cards. That said, they are probably the hardest rub-ons I've ever tried to use! They take forever to stick, and I've even made rubbing depressions on my cardstock because I had to rub so hard to get them to stick onto the paper!

The Fancy Pants folks need to talk with the Melissa Frances folks and get with the program! (BTW, the Melissa Frances rub-ons are THE BEST!!!)

A nice adhesive, and love the double ended dispenser, but it is latex based, which could be a problem for some folks, and it also will roll up and get little balls if you aren't careful, which doesn't look too good on a pretty card that you want to be very special. But I'll definitely still use it for certain things.

Who doesn't love sunflowers and deep tuscan colors??? These die cuts are lovely, and I can see so many ways I can use them on my cards. I especially love all the swirls, brackets and tags!

These are gorgeous flowers, and get lots of attention on my cards. I guess my only complaint is that the bling flower centers are too dark for my tastes, and I'll probably end up using something else for these flowers, and the flower centers on other projects. But I'll definitely enjoy using both!

Okay, you've got to love these clock stamps, I mean, you can use them in so many different ways! But in my opinion, they are too squishy! When you press the stamp onto paper, they just squish down, with very little pressure, and make a big blob of ink. Now, I have a # of clear stamps, and none of the others are quite this soft of acrylic, and none of them squish as easily as these do. I'll use them, but I'll always have to be very careful how I apply the stamp to the paper. Don't not buy it, just be aware of this issue.

I have to tell you, I wasn't too sure when I ordered these, but now I've got them in hand, and have actually used 3 of the smaller ones on a card, I'm hooked! They aren't like kiddie fun foam at all, but are softer and have a velvety look to them. I can see me using these in a lot of ways, and they are a pretty good value for the money with 72 flowers in the package. Go on, give 'em a try!

Okay, I got this set free with my last order - Thanks so much sb.com! And I do like them, especially the roller - it works well and the adhesive really holds. The pen's adhesive doesn't hold as well, and I don't think I would buy it again. My thing is cost! My budget is minimal, and I have to save money where I can. I can find much less expensive adhesives elsewhere. I doubt if I would buy these, but I do recommend you try them if you have the $$$ resources!

These stickers are adorable, and very thick and of great quality, but! I find the colors are just a tad TOO soft, and hard to match if you don't have the Melissa Frances papers, which I don't at this time. They are still very nice quality and very pretty, though!

Without a doubt, Melissa Frances rubons are THE BEST rubons I've ever found! They are on a thick plastic-y backing, and take little rubbing! As you rub, and the rubon attaches to your paper, the backing comes off, so you KNOW that you've got it all on the paper, and there are NO little bits left on the backing. I just can't say enough about this!!!!!

Nice rubons, and such pretty colors! I'm saving some of them to make my sis in law's birthday card, but they are lovely rubons!

The colors are great, the designs so pretty, and I just love them! Enough said!

Love thesese diecuts! The colors are beautiful, and work so well with many different projects and themes. Go on, you'll love them, too!

You know, the Melissa Frances rubons are the best quality rubons I've ever found! They go on easily, and once they've stuck to the paper, the backing comes off by itself, so you KNOW it's done right. That said, I just haven't figured out what I'm going to do with these yet! I have made one card (Dream Time, in my gallery) but now need more inspiration!

Very nice rubons, and a great assortment that you can mix and match. Love them!

they are really cute, and add a pop of texture where needed! I am enjoying using them!

Really sweet flower shapes, and at a reasonable price.

This is some of the nicest chipboard I've ever found - very sturdy and love the white top coating. Some great shapes as well!

Really fun product! I especially like to use it over an inked surface, because the ink blends a little bit, and you get some great looks!

First, I've gotta say I love this textured cardstock, second - it's really great bold colors that I just love. Will definitely get some more down the road!

after getting it, and trying it out - I really enjoy it! Pretty colors, soft texture, great quality cardstock. Very nice!

Great stamp, and just 99 cents - wow! And it's such a sweet little birdie!!!

Love this butterfly stamp - makes pretty butterflies and a decent price, too!

This is a really neat pen for doodling! You can make a broad line, or nice dots - works quite well, and dries quickly!

Well, I haven't used many of these for layouts or cards, but I do use them continually as a source for quotes! I have a drawer full of these, and when I'm looking for a quote, I can almost alwayse find something in the quote stacks! Would definitely recommend!

This is very nice cardstock! The texture is a little different, and works great for cards. Love it!

This cardstock is the most clear, sweet colors, and the quality of the paper is the best! I also LOVE the texture. Wonderful product!

I make primarily greeting cards, and I can use this a lot! It is a tad bit larger than I expected, but that's okay, it works great!

Very nice product! It is a little larger than I expected, but I can think of lots of ways I can use it. Great!

Really nice stamps! I especially like the 'you're the best', and the small flowers. They work great. Would love to see more of this type of stamps!

Really good for when you want your 'true colors' to shine through, but with a little extra glossy-ness. Works great!

Look in my gallery, and you will see a card that says UR Sweet as Cherry Pie. Well, those chipboard letters (the U and the R) were an ugly brown color, so I inked them heavily with black ink, and then used this powder, and they look great! In fact they look like bright shiny new black patent leather shoes! I love it! This is one of those things I don't use that often, but always enjoy when I pull it out and use it.

If you love purses, and if you love paper-crafting, then you will love this kit! All the pieces come printed and pre-cut on 12 x 12 cardstock, and all you do is punch them out, fold the lines, use a light adhesive to construct them, then add your own bling to dress them up! I especially think girls - probably pre-teen through teens would love these, and it would be a great slumber party project so that each girl would have a purse or two to take home with them. Really fun projects!

I used to have an old setter set that you had to use a hammer with and it made so much noise, and still didn't set the eyelets very well. The silent setter is a different matter altogether! The top of the setter fits the palm of your hand very well, and does a great job of setting the eyelets. This also works very well for punching a hole in an awkward place that regular hole punches won't fit. I love the little zippered compartment where everything fits so well. Very good product!

I have been loving the cards with rounded corners for ages, and I finally broke down and ordered this, and I am so glad I did! Thie rounded corners just makes the cards I make look so clean and crisp - love it!

These brads are just lovely! The soft pastel colors are perfect, and the little bit of sugaring on the tops is just perfect. I've had a lot of comments on my cards on which I used these brads. Just LOVE them!

I just love these flowers! They are of a nice size, and they aren't too flimsy, so they hold up very well. Heidi, when will you come out with some tiny flowers???
