Question / Discussion Help please I'm struggling

Thumbnail

18 Upvotes

Hi, I've just joined in the hope of getting some guidance

I'd like to sell (locally due to the weight) this load of dies in one go.

They were my mum's and the emotional strain of trying to sell it all piecemeal has gotten too much.

I'm just looking for advice on what kind of price I should ask for the lot.

There are 53 inserts in the small folders mostly filled completely on both sides

And 14 in the large folders again filled double sided.

Plus all the random stuff as well.

Thank you

Question / Discussion How do you store/keep stamps?

8 Upvotes

I know there’s all kinds of you tube videos about this but they seem mostly to be made by people with a dedicated craft room and more resources than me. Now I’ll admit I do have a lot of supplies especially stamps and dies but have pared them down probably by 2/3 which still leaves me a lot . I mostly craft in my bedroom on an ikea table but try and not store a lot on that table in order to keep my bedroom looking neater. I do have a pretty big closet and space in our utility room to store things. I’ve used clear refrigerator bins and other more decorative bins to store the stamps in the past and will continue to do this. I guess my questions are… do you keep stamps after you use them? I used to keep them all but now I try and use them at least a few times and then get rid of them. The exception would be sentiments, and background stamps which i keep all. How do you organize them? By company, theme , or something else? I find it easier to store other supplies like embossing folders and coloring supplies in my ikea carts. It’s the stamps that throw me… thanks for any suggestions .

First time making a pop-up! Followed this wonderful design from Kathryn Williams.

Still in the first two weeks of owning a Cricut, and I’ve been attempting something new each day to learn more about the machine, software, and crafting.

Pop-ups are no joke. This took me 5 hours!!!! Putting these suckers together is like a puzzle!

I struggle with organizing it all.

I’m in a group that requires a purchase amount every quarter, so now 3 years later I have boxes of card making material.

Question / Discussion Die cutting plates

12 Upvotes

I just purchased my first electric die cutting machine (the Gemini). It works fine. But the first die left a big imprint on the clear plate. I'm doing Xmas cards and have to cut out like 40 of these pieces. Will the plate be totally ruined? It's already unsightly and freaking me out.

Should I buy a magic mat? How do you deal with the imprints? The plates don't seem damaged on the demo videos and on the tv when they do the long demos.

I posted two of the cards already but here are some more. Been having so much fun making cards 🩷 I have I think at least 8 or 9 more I need to make. How is everyone else's cards going? Do you make all the same or make them all different? Since I don't have to make a ton I try and challenge myself to make as many different as I can.

Question / Discussion Misti corners for alignment?

4 Upvotes

I'm still struggling with aligning things straight on my cards .... I've tried a t square ruler but the head is higher than the straight part and it throws me off.
The metal L shaped ruler I bought is huge and heavy so that's not working.
I found Misti has some magnetic corners and I'm wondering if anyone uses them to help line up your card panels or card frames straight.
They're a bit expensive so I'd love to hear opinions before I invest.
( I know people have issues with the Misti having religious sayings and with her aggressive enforcement of her patent, but I'm not discussing that here. I'm just trying to see if this product works for my needs)
I have an astigmatism that isn't corrected by my glasses fully and I'm tired of my cards looking wonky. 😢
