1) What crafty item do you like to work with the most? I haven't really met a paper crafting item that I don't like for something.........
2) What crafty item do you like to work with the least? I am going to have to agree with all those other people who answered this with loose glitter.....it comes from someone's imagination where things never move where they don't belong......
3) What was the last crafty item you purchased? Another case for colored pencils, it's all in the organization in January
4) Have you used it yet? Why yes I have, it was in my hot little hands about half a minute before I tried it out.
5) What crafter's blog do you read? (If you read more than one, just pick one). I don't go to crafters blogs much, but I will say Stampwilly and Far North because of the challenges they had this week.
6) Name the last stamping magazine you have read? There is an online one that I look at every once in a while and I can't for the life of me remember it's name. I only go when it's linked from another message board.
7) What is your favorite brand of stamps? Ranger and all it's designers
What is your favorite brand of ink? I am also going to say Ranger here, I use archivers ink, distress ink, and the regular dye ink from Ranger most often.
9) What coloring method do you use the most? I use watercolor markers, colored pencils, and acrylic paint in similar amounts.
10) What is one question you would like to ask the other Stampers? Does your style change with who you are watching on youtube? My style seems to change with who I am watching make cards or tags. If I watch the Ranger designers I go for a more grungy or vintage look and if I watch one of the Nicoles my style becomes more clean and cutsey......LOL
Die storage....years ago when all that was available was the sizzix steel ruled dies and the cuttlebug alphabets I stored the cuttlebug alphas in binders in sports card Plastics. I also got a couple of those big binders with the heavy plastic for some of them. I still have 4 binders full of those alphabets and other assorted thin dies. The steel ruled were just stored in a pile for a while, then I got some storage that is now discontinued that stacked them and had places for about a dozen dies. I have about six of these that those original dies still live in. They are easy to see and read the ends of the dies but take up a lot of space. I also have a Sixxiz holder for their alphabets, it is cloth with holes in the inside that you can put the plastic long case of an alphabet into, I have 8 places in there filled up. Then Tim Holtz came out with his nice steel ruled dies and again I had piles so I got another one of those carts you guys liked and put all those dies on it. The thin dies are in a plastic box on the top shelf of that cart. They are either in the original storage that sixxiz now uses or the stamps and dies are in Avery Elle plastic sleeves with a small piece of magnet to hold the dies with the stamps in behind. That little container is getting full and I am looking to see where I can put the second one......LOL. I also have one of the artbin things with the magnetic sheets that isn't full but I have some spellbinders and others that don't have stamps to match.
So in summary......I have some dies in school folders and those big folders (4) I have some in the sixxiz towers (6) and I have some in a Sixxiz cloth holder (8 alphabets) and I have the artbin thingy and I have a cart full.........I will try to remember to take a picture and post it tonight after I get home from work......
