Kerry’s Paper Crafts

Hi guys. Just wanted to post some things I’ve come across that are too good to pass up, and also share what I am totally diggin’ right now.

Red Sticky Strip & Dimensional Adhesive:
I LOVE Red Sticky Strip. I use a lot of it on my 3D projects, therefore I go through it like water. I need a lot. And I’m not really down with ordering it through SU! or going to Michael’s to get it - the prices just aren’t that great. Thanks to the awesome ladies on SCS, I stumbled across this site where you can get both Sticky Strip & TONS of dimensional adhesive for really great prices. I just ordered some of both. I will have to let you know how I like them. I’m really eager to try the dimensionals - I’m not sure, but I think you get more per pack than you do with SU.We shall see!

ATG Adhesive:
I use the 1/2″ ATG adhesive (I have the yellow gun - I believe most people with the 1/4″ adhesive have a red gun?) Anyway, I get mine HERE. They have a great price for a bulk package of 12 rolls. Plus if you spend over $50 you get free shipping. Seriously you can’t beat that. I LOVE it when I get free shipping. It pretty much influences my choice to buy at a store online or not.

ATG Information/Video:
If you are thinking of getting one, try going to this site HERE and clicking on the photo of the ATG gun. It will download a video for you to watch. This teaches you how load your ATG gun. I used it a lot when I first got mine. (Now I do it so often that I think I could do it in my sleep, ha!)

Mono Adhesive Refills:
Even though I am an ATG lover, there are still times when I grab for my Mono Adhesive. Let’s face it, it’s small & convenient. I hate to pay the $3+ for it in the stores. A “little birdie” sent me this link where you can get it super cheap.

Unfinished Wood Products/Alterables:
I get most of these at AC Moore, Michael’s & Joann’s. I am bummed that they are not available in all parts of the US. (Then again, we have NO Hobby Lobby’s anywhere in New England, which I am bummed about!) But I get asked this question a lot for my Wooden Purses, Jumbo Clothespins, Door Hangers, etc.

Things I am really into right now:

• Cosmo Cricket Designer Paper
  
• Tim Holtz Distress Ink…this is thanks to Jennifer McGuire’s Thinking Inking Series…AWESOME videos!
• Hero Arts Stamps & Blog - cannot wait to get my hands on some of their new Cling Stamps
• Corner Chomper by We R Memory Keepers. This thing rocks! It has happily replaced my old CM Corner Rounder punch - which was getting super old. I like that you can do both 1/4″ and 1/2″ sizes, and it’s super easy to press down, just like the Crop-a-Dile.
• PaperTrey Ink Cardstock…and stamps…and ribbon…and OH everything? Seriously, their Kraft cardstock is super yummy. The weight of their CS is just great and makes a great card base. (and we all know how much I LOVE Kraft CS?)

My friend is coming over tonight to have wine & scrapbook/stamp/be crafty with me. I’m looking forward to it. I hope to get a lot done this weekend. Have a great weekend everyone!
