    New finds that you cant scrap without...

    I wonder if anyone is like me nad have found some tool/item in the last month that they now couldnt scrap without?

    For me its glossy accents, how I didnt find this earlier I dont know I have seen it mention on the boards before but just thought 'oh not another glue'. Anyways I saw it used in craft stamper and decided to buy some when I next ordered online. Well this week it hasn't been put down, I have glazed stuff with it, glued stuff with it, used it too add glitter to a stamped image, made snow with it and much more. I dont know how I have lived without it. Lets just say I will need to order a new bottle soon

    So over to you, what have you discovered that you now couldnt scrap/make without?

    Even worse, to have had glossy accents sitting on the shelf for as long as I did before discovering how useful it was!

    Each time I get a new bottle I get a dressmaker's pin and pop a bead on the end and then poke that in the hole after each use... it certainly keeps the hole freed up nicely and the wee bead means you can actually grab jold of it... shame they don't do something similar!!

    For me its glossy accents,
    Yuk, cant stand the stuff personally Think its a 'hate the feel of it on my fingers' type of thing (yes Im messy )

    But I dont find mine sticks things too well either (can it go off?), so have gone back to using Anitas 3D

    I bought some glossy accents and it sat in my cupboard for ages - now I am always using it and wouldn't be without it

    glossy accents is THE glue to have.

    I'm also in love with a punch I got from S U that makes the edge of notpaper, and a line stamp too. Now I can make my own acid free notepaper or journalling block.

    The tool I often use now, but didn't use for months is the Cricut Spatula - it sat in my tote and was forgotten about.

    I used it for a tricky bit of paper and have not looked back since. Now it is used every time the Cricut is used - fantastic little item as it is also handy for running along a groove in my table where crumbs gather!

    when you've finished with it, wipe the top and then tap it a couple of times on the table before putting the lid back on. Mine never gunks up

    Yep, Stickles for me, definitely. They're so versatile.... looks great as the center of a blossom, as a wee accent somewhere, outlining scrolls I've stamped, using as 'frosting' and more. Can't get enough of it, although I probably do use it slightly more with cardmaking than scrapbooking.

    I'm loving my stickles, and also 3d foam pads to give things a bit of a lift!
    Oh and double sided tape too
