The new pick up tool is for more than just sequins. It can be used to shape flowers, score card bases, pierce cardstock, loosen stuck dies from paper, remove embellishments, and pick up sequins. What uses can you think of for this new tool? Happy Crafting! With inky fingers, Joni 🙂
Let the paper shine.
The Designer Series Paper is gorgeous on its own or paired with something. Sometimes you just have to let the paper shine on its own. In this case I accented the paper with a solid piece of cardstock and some ribbon. Happy Crafting! With inky fingers, Joni 🙂

I needed to save this piece and make it an accent forContinue reading “When pieces become the main attraction.”
Mistakes become a new technique.
Yesterday as I was stamping quickly I messed up. Instead of making precise and calculated measurements to not overlap with what I had just stamped, I stamped almost half of my stamp over what was already there. At first I got frustrated, but then I looked at what I did. Then I liked it. MyContinue reading “Mistakes become a new technique.”
