    Justine, I concur 100%, every item you mentioned is spot on! The only other tools I use regularly which you did not mention are two tweezers. One is flat needle nose, the other is a reverse tweezer which grasps and must be squeezed to let go of what it's holding. I can't explain why, but I can much easier align things straight or put them exactly where I want them if I use a tweezer. For large items they're not necessary. But for small and tiny things other than sequins or gems, I use them, so tiny flowers,, paper piecing, paper inlays... Maybe it's just my pudgy thumbs and fingers, or occasionally too much caffeine, but I can't imagine crafting without both type of tweezers.

    I’ve always thought of price per use and resale value. My husband made me a stamp platform back in 1998 before he died. It broke about the time Tim Holtz platform came out. My family replaced mine when Tim’s was removed from USA market but got the big one for $25. I bought the travel one for $12. One item I would add to your list is the Tim Holtz glass media mat. It is used every time I craft. If u can’t afford it you can just work on glass and buy the replacement white mat. When my husband died I took over his metal magnetic bowl and a telescopic magnetic tool to get dropped items from the floor. Both available from auto part stores. Each person has to choose what is important to their craft making. I loved eyelets and still use them once in awhile. I haven’t gotten into the sequins since a pkg would last me a lifetime. I did buy white and clear that I color using alcohol inks. There are so many options for supplies. Each crafter should seriously think before a purchase, not impulse buying. Then...use what you purchase. Happy crafting all. Stay safe!!

    Megan Harrington. Have another idea for you. My friend gave me a “template handle” made by Missour Star Quilt Co. it has suction cups that holds a template. I tried it with a Sizzix On the Edge Cutting Pad.pad is 3 1/4” x 6”. I put stamp on and the handle on other side and was able to stamp holding the handle and adding pressure with the palm of my hand. It worker great and did not hurt my arthritis in my fingers.

See mysweetpetunia.com “The warranty is void if solvent, oil based products, Staz-On cleaner, Ultra clean, solvent cleaners, Windex, Goo Gone, alcohol, or harsh chemicals solvents are used. The warranty period begins at date of purchase. Use an acrylic cleaner such as Novus 1 or Novus 2.”

    About Adhesive, these are some of the things that I do to keep the costs down. For liquid glue, I use mod podge, I bought a 32oz tub over two years ago and a precision tip bottle and I just keep refilling the small bottle using a needleless syringe. I think I bought the tub for less than $12 and it's still 4/5 of the way full after several bottle refills. For tape runner, if that's your fav/go-to, check out the Elmers one that Michaels sells. The replacement cartridges come two to a pack and they're only a few dollars; Michaels also has sales and coupons all the time so you can easily stock up for cheap. For double-sided tape or foam tape, I tend to buy mine on Amazon or eBay because you can find it several roles for less than $5 and it comes in a variety of sizes. Additionally, and I haven't tried it but it comes recommended, if you're in the states check out the dollar store for foam tape. I've seen many crafters use the dollar store stuff with great success. I've also heard of people using Uline for double-sided tape, as it's also supposed to be relatively inexpensive.

I was blessed to be able to also get Tim Holtz before Misti made them go away. Misti for all of it's high price is not any better then any of these I know because I bought one when they first came out. Don't use it let the kids play with it I use the others. Misti (Sweet Petunia) is greedy and they don't play well with others!

    My Sweet Petunia innovated stamping with the intention of her MISTI. She made these in her garage until demand for it exceeded her ability to produce them by herself. She took the initiative to start manufacturing them at her own cost. She also got it patented to protect her intellectual product and protect her financial risk associated with inventing something and bringing it to the masses. Imagine after having the initiative to invent something and then big companies copying your idea and selling them cheaper because they have the ability to order crazy numbers of them. My Sweet Petunia is WELL within her RIGHT as a patent owner to insure her patent is not infringed upon. These big companies take a risk, knowing she has a patent, and still producing a very similar product. I’m glad she has the tenacity to stick up for herself. Obviously, people who bash her have never had a valuable idea stolen from them. People have no idea what the particulars are behind the settlement between MSP and Tonic. If they can work together after this case, it’s obvious that Tonic knew the proper thing to do was settle. They are now partners and have a great working relationship. The MISTI changed the stamping world. I’m proud of her.

I didn’t like the blocks I had, didn’t feel “right” in my fingers. I’d loose the silly clear blocks, especially the small ones. I’d buy bore blocks hoping to find one that was comfortable in my hands ( or because I didn’t find that silly lost block). I wasn’t really enjoying card making like I’d hoped. I finally bit the bullet and bought one. OMG. Why did I wait? I was getting good results. I was ENJOYING crafting. I use it all the time.

    I totally agree about the misti. Although, I am a quilter/bag maker that decided to add paper crafting to my crafting that tool is one of the first I purchased and of course being new to this space I bought the 12x12 misti lol only because I was buying 12x12 paper a lot. It didn’t take me long to realize I didn’t really need such a large one and could have saved a good bit of money on the normal size one. All that being said I still am very glad to have it but as soon as there is what I consider excess funds I do believe I will purchase the middle size one. The only reason is it does take up a lot of space to swing that large door open so I don’t reach for it as often as I believe I would if it was smaller. Sorry this was soooo long.

    A couple of years ago I somehow stumbled across a site from the UK called 'CraftStash' and sometimes their prices are a little cheaper than other places, like the various 'tapes' I decided to try around Christmas 2019. I have to say for the cost (including shipping to the US - & like Tonic they now have a 'UK' & 'US' site), their double sided tape & foam tape & squares work just fine. I use the tape to seal my envelopes & initially bought three & just used my first roll a few months ago, & the foam squares are available in 3 sizes & in 1, 2, or 3mm thickness depending on the size. I initially purchased 1 'sheet' of each size (amounts very by size) for around 50 cent a sheet & found myself mostly reaching for the 1mm thick squares & found them in packs of 10 sheets for around $5.39. They are very sticky & the tapes are only available in 2 different widths, but are well worth the price (& a sprinkle of powder around the outer edges takes care of that sticky).

    LOVE your videos, Justine!! My most favorite canNOT-craft-without "TOOL" is a doubled piece of plastic-coated FREEZER PAPER; mine is by Reynold's, though I don't know if others wouldn't be about the same. I've just continued to use the same piece, though, for the price, I'd imagine you could dispose of it each time you used it. I use it to lay my card on when I use glue runner; when I over-shoot the edge, I can easily just use my finger to rub away the excess, even on the "permanent" version. Tsukineko inks (Memento Dye & Brilliance Pigment) do stain the thing, but the surface layer easily comes off with a baby wipe or the Frugal Crafter's baby shampoo + h20 stamp cleaner. I DID once try a stronger cleaner -- don't 'member which -- but that DID mar the surface to where that piece wasn't usable for my purposes any more. As I craft at my kitchen counter this has saved them no end of damage. 'Cept the time I spaced off the fact I was using the freezer paper INSTEAD OF MY CUTTING MAT!!! ((Another cheap-y = 4 pk plastic vegetable cutting "sheets" from Target.))

    I remember when I first started card making and die cutting and instructions would talk about using a pokey tool to get those left over pieces out of a cut die. I kept wondering what a pokey tool was. I do Amazon product reviews, and when I was able to get things related to paper-crafting, I would get some tools (with no instructions for their use) in these packs and started noticed that I was getting something that looked like a dentist torture instrument. Ah ha says me as my brain geared up, dental pick = pokey tool. Maybe I am wrong but all you need is something with a sharp point (probably a toothpick would work) and you are in business and generally no need to buy anything special. Perhaps I am using the wrong thing, but it seems to work. Thanks for all your great ideas!

    funny, here in NZ, what you say is pricey, is cheap here(double sided tape - though only in hat you would call 1/4inch), and some things just not gettable here at all..alll those fancy enamel dots, glues, applicators, blenders etc... so it's still the makeup sponges, normal pva,glue sticks(which I really like as long as they are NOT the school version). I did just purchase a glue roller though. I plan on eking that one out! I am workingon using up what I have in embellishments. can you do a vid if you haven't please, on applying metallic flakes and thin metallic sheets?

I had a friend that kept her paper money in her bra, because she could not keep up with a purse or wallet. Since she was the mother of 8 children (all girls), she called that money stash her "milk money"😂 I truly enjoy your videos.💜

    I just calculated how much value I get from spending my precious time watching YOUR videos vs. some others. You are SUPER cost effective!!! Seriously, you are dealing with card making on MY level. Always a beginner! I’ve watched hundreds of hours of a Super Cardmaker and could NEVER replicate anything she did. It would have cost me thousands to buy all the items does, and I’m not creative in this way that would allow me to pick up on the “principles” she is teaching so that I could use her ideas with different dies or stamps. !!! After a while I stopped watching her cause I found it just made me feel bad about myself.

    Susan, be careful what you use to clean Misti. There are some cleaners that if unused will void your warranty. See mysweetpetunia.com “The warranty is void if solvent, oil based products, Staz-On cleaner, Ultra clean, solvent cleaners, Windex, Goo Gone, alcohol, or harsh chemicals solvents are used. The warranty period begins at date of purchase. Use an acrylic cleaner such as Novus 1 or Novus 2.”

    Mr Clean magic erasers (and generic equivalents) are like using some sort of unbelievably ultra-micro-fine grade of sandpaper. They're absolutely fantastic for cleaning durable surfaces, but I think you'd be taking a huge risk to use it on a acrylic surface such as a MISTI. You might not notice scratching at first, but it wouldn't surprise me if over time you saw some clouding - the effect of a multitude of teeny-tiny scratches. (Note: This is only my opinion. If anyone's used a Mr Clean eraser multiple times on their MISTI or other acrylic items with no problems, please share your experience. Thanks!)
