Hi Dena Rekow, thank you for responding back.When making mats for cards can I use 12x12 card stock.
Thanks.
Love the info....ta
Very nice way of organizing your diff sizes of cardstock. I was also in the process of doing that but you made it a lot easier for me to do it. I also keep the the trim sizes. The only thing I need now is a good cardstock cutter. I need to replace what I have right now. Need to invest on that but nothing expensive. Any suggestion? Are you using a cricut machine? Thank you.
So helpful. Where did u get the rotary attachment? I checked a few places on line but none sell it. It will be so much help on these old shoulders.
Just saw your tips video, could you tell me where you got your rotary cutter attachment for your Stampin’Up trimmer. Thanks Averiel
Hi there, I just bought my first paper trimmer yesterday. I'm writing down the measurements for the card layers (A,B,C,D) you provided. If I'm understanding, do I use a "C" instead of "D" if I don't need for the back layer to not be as visible (not embossed, decorated, etc.)?* So A,B,C or A,B,D...right? Not A,B,C & D. (That daffodil part confused me just a bit). *Just going by these guidelines-I'm sure there's a million ways to cut paper & even more sizes, and can be done however you like, etc. Thank you! 🙂 I liked this & subscribed to your channel. This was very helpful to me. (Now, to try out the new paper trimmer!) 🙂
I've been looking for a rotary attachment for my Stampin Trimmer. Where doI find one? Thanks.
You always share the best tips and techniques!! I have tried so many things and I am having the hardest time with my Stampin Trimmer. I really don't know what else to do, I have changed blades, cleaned the cutting track and entire trimmer but I still only get feathered edges on all my paper... I just don't get it...

Same here!
I love that you have precut pieces to use. What is your big paper cutter? I'm going to read this blog post so I can write down all of the measurements for precut layers. Love the storage for the leftover pieces standing up.

Yay! So glad you found me Ruth!! It is ALWAYS my goal to make stamping fun! This is an OLD video, too! I have to admit, I have come a long way, LOL! Especially my lighting!
I put my bones folder in the back with my extra blades. Do the rotary blades last longer than the standard blades?

I think so!
They don't have this cutter any more...will the rotary cutter work on the new trimmer? If so, where do you purchase it. I love the way you cut your paper ahead of time. I am sure at the time, it took a lot of time -- but oh how easy to just pull a size out when you need it...thanks.

Hi Patty, the new trimmer is not a rotary trimmer--it is like this one but it actually cuts really well! The new trimmer is not at all inter-changable with the old.
Just wondering, does Stampin' Up still sell the rotary blade attachment for the trimmer, I didn't see it in the catalogue.

@@TheCreativityCave I have the rotary trimmer that I bought forever ago and never used it. Your tips made me pull it out and dust it off to play with. Now I am in love. Does SU still sell the replacement cartridges?
Hi Dena Rekow, I'm a new subscriber and love the different cards you make. My question to is I have cards that measure 4inx5.5in how could I make mats for that size card, if you could help I will be grateful. Thank You. from Jennifer Real.

Jennifer I would do 3 3/4 x 5 1/4, 3 1/2 x 5 for the "wider" mats, or for the skinny layers, I would use 3 5/8 x 5 1/8" and 3 3/8 x 4 7/8" Hope this helps! Happy Stampin Jennifer!!
Thanks for this video. This is essentially to card making. You had mentioned you have a process or your daily routine in a spreadsheet wanted to know if It is available. A day in the life of a card designer. Inbox me

My Fiskars broke like yours -- but they have a lifetime warranty So I sent a photo of the broken part and they sent me a new trimmer ,,,easy, peasy. Did y’all know that Fiskars replaced any of their products that break 🤔
