How Tools Can Help Your Creativity.
This week I started a new addititon to my weekly Facebook Lives, ‘My Top 5’s’ and I am hoping that this will help new crafters or those new to Stampin’ Up! products choose some great products that can enhance their crafting and become go-to staples in their crafting stash.
This week’s focus was TOOLS, one of my favourite topics as I am a bit of a tool geek! When I first came across Stampin’ Up! and became a customer my first purchases were tools and I was so impressed with the quality and functionality of these tools. I love that the company talks to Demonstrators and asks them about features they feel would be useful when developing new tools. Stampin’ Up! is the go to place to buy your Crafting Tools
The list I’ve curated here is for inexpensive, basic, but brilliant tools for the beginner crafter, or for the crafter that wants to replace existing older products with the best quality crafting tools for great results in their craft space. If you do decide to purchase Stampin’ Up! products at my online store via the shopping links attached to the images, don’t forget to add the current Host Code to get an additional gift from me for supporting my small business. Links are on the side bar and at the bottom of my posts.
My Favourite Tools I Can’t Craft Without.
| 1.Paper Trimmer | |
 | I love this Stampin’ Up! Trimmer, with it’s scoring blade I can create all my 3D projects and cut and score them without needing to change tools. It keeps my desk neater having both tools in one. The extendable arm is much longer than 12 inches too. |
| 2.Simply Shammy | |
 | The Shammy is such a great stamp cleaning tool. It cleans without chemicals, which I love and can be rinsed under the tap to clean easily. and It’s so affordable. |
| 3.Clear Block D | |
 | The Clear Blocks from Stampin’ Up! are such great quality and ergonomic. I love how they feel when used as the grip section around the middle section really helps get a great image. They come in many sizes too. Such a great investment. |
| 4.Paper Snips | |
 | These Snips are such fabulous scissors, sharp, accurate and great to hold. They will help you ‘fussy cut’ into intricate shapes and get fantastic results, staying sharp for the longest time. They are a great staple for the craft room. |
| 5.Take Your Pick | |
 | This tool has interchageable tips and is so useful for many tasks in my craft room. There’s a putty end for picking up gems and sequins or any other little pieces, a spatula and a double ended ball tool. You can purchase additional tips too! |

I will be adding Top 5 Lists each Facebook Live until I run out of Categories, but if there’s a category that you would like me to feature then please let me know, I really would love to hear what sorts of content you would like me to feature.
