Tool time!

This is in my opinion the the best toolbox out there, of course I am biased since is my toolbox but you can ask anybody I talk about it and take it to any crop big or small, is like my pacifier, if I have it I know everything is going to be ok and I have anything I could possibly need and I´ll give you a sample of this:


This is the top layer, also known as the pentahouse of the toolbox, I carry there inkpad for inking, eraser, set of brushes; the red is in the bathroom soaked cause I forgot to rinse glue and well I´m rambling never mind, also letter opener that works as a bone folder (cause I don´t have one!!!) fine tip markers in blue, red and black and fine tip sharpie, mechanical pencil and you can´t see it but white ink marker.

Then comes the inner removable tray tha hols twezers, waterbrushe, sandpaper, crochet hooks, sequins, glue and of course my rounder corner punch.

And the bottom part that has my Fiskateer scissors, I´m #1337 just in case you were wondering, Fiskars finger tip craft knife, tacky glue, glue dots, glue lines, staples, stapler, Olfa circle cutter blade, embossing pens, sharpener, rounder corner scissors etc.

Is a simple Truper toolbox completey see trough so I can see what I have there all the time and this has made the difference when I craft because I know exactly where everything is and I don´t loose time looking for anything and when I go to crops is super easy to carry around and doesn´t take that much space.

The Enveloper

This Christmas we decided that we were not getting any extravagant or expensive Christmas presents after all there wasn´t anything we really wanted or needed. But in our last crop our friend Doris mentioned The Enveloper, and sent us the website so we could check it out.

Turns out The Enveloper is a gadget that as the name says it helps you make perfect envelopes and comes with a card and a box maker, and of course we had to have it, so Doris order it and like a charm it was here on Christmas eve, so we did have a little Christmas present.

Well today finally we had the chance to use it and made some envelopes just to see how it works how easy or difficult it is to use and how perfect the envelopes turn out.

I´m really happy to say that The Enveloper is everything they say, is easy to use, very simple and totally explained, clear instructions and you end up with totally perfect envelopes, we had a total blast making them and doing different techniques and can´t wait to make more envelopes and next try the box maker.

On the top of the post you can see our envelopes and The Enveloper, wich you can get at Crafters Companion .
