Review – Martha Stewart Checker Board Edge Punch

Friday, June 19th, 2009

Following a question by a member on our forum about the Martha Stewart punches I decided to run a few tests using the Martha Stewart Checker Board Edge Punch to see just how far this little punch could be pushed.

Yes Yes = easily cuts; vellum, thin vinyl wallpaper, lightweight corrugated card/paper, glossy coated card (approx 250gsm), Core’dinations 80lb cardstocks, Bazzil Bling, Cuddly Buddly 150gsm glossy photo paper, Cuddly Buddly 210gsm eggshell textured inkjet printer card, 250gsm satin mirror card … and Kars (real) Metal Foil and the cardboard wrapper that the punch comes packed in but these last two did need a much tighter squeeze!

No No = won’t cut; Shrink Plastic, Tim Holtz Grungepaper, clear plastic bag (the kind we pop our finished cards in), thin tracing paper.

The punch works very, very smoothly and after all the various bits I’ve fed through it’s still very much alive and kicking! If I could change one thing, I’d add a little plastic tray beneath the ‘cutting blades’ to catch the tiny punched out bits – other than that, I’m well pleased with it’s performance and very happy to recommend it to our customers.

Keep Creating!

New Fairy Fun Seasonal Stamps & 3D Decoupage

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

Meet the newest four little fairies to fly off Kim Sponaugle’s drawing board and into the wonderful realm of all things crafty! The ice skating Winter Fairy, delicate Spring Fairy amongst the Lily of the Valley, sweet little Summer Fairy whispering to a birdie and the mischievious Autumn Fairy riding a sycamore leaf will help you to keep creating all through the year and are ideal for card making, calendar and altered art projects. All four seasonal fairies are available as unmounted rubber stamps and 3D Decoupage greeting card downloads. Keep an eye out for Sonia’s beautiful handcrafted cards using these fairy stamps when browsing through the stamps in the shop or Gallery 1.

Also new in the shop this week are four more adorable Erica Pels acrylic stamp sets – Autumn 1 & 2, Winter Skates and Near the Christmas Tree. This brings the total of Erica Pels stamp sets to twelve now and offers us a wonderful collection of stamps for year round projects.

Other new arrivals this week are new colours in Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks and Adirondack Pigment Inkpads. New Martha Stewart Border punches – just two designs have arrived at the moment but lots more are on the way and expected to be with us real soon. We’ve also added more Peel Offs in various texts and borders and three packs of little tassels in assorted colours.

And finally for now … and, as ever, certainly not least … we’ve added some new cards to Gallery 1 by the wonderfully talented Alison. Just look at the clever application of Perfect Pearls on the Book Fairy card below – skoosh and drag!
