Fav tools

Here are a few of my favorite paper crafting tools and supplies:

Paper Trimmer- 
I like this one from Making Memories.  It's sturdy, cuts straight and is self-sharpening.  It's not very portable, however, so it mostly lives in my craft room. I generally take my Cutterpede with me if I craft away from home. 


Scoreboard- Martha Stewart- 
Super lightweight and gets the job done.  I love that it comes with the envelope tool. 

Corner Chomper-
This was a Christmas Gift from my hubby and I love this corner rounder! It cuts through paper like buttah and I even used it to round the corners of a piece of balsa wood I made into a card. 

Ink
Amuse Studios, Memento, Reformulated Papertrey Ink 

Dies and Punches
I use a lot of dies on my projects.  Some of my favorite dies are from Papertrey Ink, My Favorite Things, Amuse Studio

Cardstock
I find the cardstock at Papertrey Ink to be top notch in quality. If you happen to live in or be visiting NE Ohio, it's worth making a trip to Hollos Paper for their cardstock that they sell by the pound (yep, by the pound- I think $1.25/pound) and envelopes. 


Buttons 
I tend to think that a card is not complete without a button or three.  I purchase most of my buttons from Papertrey Ink. 

Twine
No respectable button wants to be seen going around naked, right?  That's where twine comes in. I love the Rustic White and Rustic Cream button twine sold at Papertrey Ink.  I also understand that May Arts also sells some amazing twine and I will trying once I deplete my current supply. 

When I need a little color in the twine department, I love baker's twine sold at the Twinery


Cricut
I love my Cricut Expression for card making and scrapbooking.  Some of my favorite cartridges include: Country Life, Simply Charmed, A Child's Year, Songbird, and Just Because Cards.
