PS Member Posts : 3312 Location : So. California

You just got $100 to buy new scrappy supplies. What would you buy?

I'd buy the Martha Stewart scoring board, some fun trims, more paper even though I don't need it & some Maya Mists.

I would buy a bunch of canvases and foam stamps for mixed media scrappy stuff.

Ooooh... Good question!

I would spend it on Prima embellies, a few Copics, patterned paper, and maybe a set of Unity stamps.

Only 100? LOL probably buy Tim Holtz stuff, and a new paper cutter.

@Donna C - What kind of cutter would you want to buy? I have 4 Fiskars cutters that are pretty good. My Euro Triple Track is probably my favorite. I recently got a Creative Memories small guillotine cutter, used it once, and put it back in the box. I haven't been able to find a guillotine cutter that actually cuts straight!

@Rachel...even the huge wooden ones they have out the school don't cut straight. I have learned that if you hold your paper real firm at the bottom, it helps but it really slows you down. I have a Purple cow cutter I got awhile ago & it actually has a bar to lock your paper in place, but again, it really slows you down.

I have an old blue fiskars cutter which still works great, but it is only 6x12 and hard to get exact measurments on larger sizes because you have to swing out the ruler. Don't want a guillotine one for sure. Is Euro Triple Track by Fiskars?

I'd buy some Tim Holtz kraft glassine and kraft resist papers, a stamp set or two and maybe some distress stain to try. Then I'd look at new Maya Road goodies.

I would buy a bunch of the new collections like Jillibean Soups Dutch Mustard and Blossom Soup, Crates Portait collection, Echo Parks For the Record, Bo Bunny's Timepiece and some more Sew Easy attachments.

@Donna - Yes, the triple track is by Fiskars. It has the ruler that swings out. I would like a bigger cutter that accommodates 12 inches, but I don't really have room to dedicate to it on my craft desk!

Prima embellies and lots and lots of paper collections.
I'm such a paper addict

I'd buy some of Tim Holtz' new papers (you know....those gorgeous Kraft ones!), some of his dies that I have my eye on, and Spellbinders fancy tags (#2 & #3) . Hmmm...think I've gone way over $100 by now! (Spellbinders are around $45 each here in Australia)

Right now, I'd buy stuff for our Disneyland albums. I don't know brands or specifics, but things that would work. One of our LSS is closing and she has lots of Disney stuff 50% off, so that works. (She's retiring, although the store closing sale has been going for about 4 months already.)
