What is this, you think to yourself, if you are new to the world of paper crafting. Or perhaps you have been crafting for some time, but you are curious as to what others may carry in <em>their<\/em> kits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carpenters have toolboxes with wrenches and bolts.

It\u2019s not the size that matters&#8230; it\u2019s what\u2019s inside that counts!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like purses or backpacks, a well-stocked card making kit is typically jammed full of everything but the kitchen sink. After all, you wouldn\u2019t want to be at an event and not have something on hand that you might need! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, let me break it down and talk about my Top 3 No Nonsense Necessities versus a few of the Endless Extravagant Extras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Basic Supplies<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Adhesive<\/strong>. Projects that involve layers of paper need some tape or glue to keep them from coming apart at the seams. Most paper crafters use double sided tape, or tape runners. With a quick zip, zip, zip, you can attach items easily. I find that glue dots are also super handy for placement of tiny bits and pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/104332G.jpg?resize=800%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Snail Adhesive is double sided, permanent tape. It is easy to apply and refill.\" class=\"wp-image-194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/104332G.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/104332G.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/104332G.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/104332G.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Every paper crafter\u2019s fear consists of running out of tape in the middle of a project. Always have refills on hand. Or stamp with a friend and use their supply!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scissors<\/strong>. At a typical event, the paper for your project is pre-cut. But scissors are useful in the additional trimming of ribbon ends, fussy cutting and more. Sharp scissors, although dangerous, are best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Bone Folder<\/strong>. This must have tool helps you to get crisp folds. You can smooth and secure paper layers with it. I like that it works to break up paper fibers, or curl and shape. It is also great in removing layers that were taped incorrectly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>More is More<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Take Your Pick Tool.<\/strong> Let me tell you, this is one superb helper! This baby boasts of paper piercer, mini spatula, small and large stylus and a quick picker upper. When you add the additional attachment (sold separately), you can brush clean your dies. I love this tool to help ease the edge of the new style &#8220;cling&#8221; red rubber stamps off of clear blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/144107G.jpg?resize=800%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"This multi purpose tool helps simplify meticulous tasks.\" class=\"wp-image-195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/144107G.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/144107G.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/144107G.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/144107G.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>My favorite use of this tool is removing adhesive back embellishments from their packaging and applying them easily to projects.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.<\/strong> Okay, glitter. But not in a bad, make a mess kind of way. This glitter is securely contained in liquid form inside the pen housing. It is brushed onto projects in paintbrush fashion. This glitter dries quickly, and the effect is a shimmer accent that is just lovely. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dimensionals<\/strong>. Projects really pop off the page when they are given a lift upward with these double sided foam adhesive dots. Stampin&#8217; Up! offers them in 2 sizes, regular and mini. Originally, they were only made in white, but now they are available to purchase in black. I find this beneficial when darker coverage is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Kit, Your Way<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stampin&#8217; Up! draws shoppers in with their vast array of fabulous stamps, tools and paper. But they<em> also<\/em> cover your need for the basics. So, shop my online store, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.juliemakson.stampinup.net\">https:\/\/www.juliemakson.stampinup.net<\/a> to fill up your card making kit with some vital supplies today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In conclusion, starting with the basics is the way to go when compiling your basic card making kit. Sometimes it\u2019s all you really need! As you begin to experiment in paper crafting, it is, without doubt, easy to add more to your kit. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And let\u2019s face it, when you are away from home and crafting among friends, don\u2019t worry that you are missing something important from that basic card making kit\u2026sharing always occurs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&#8217;s In Your Bag, Crafter?
