Apologies if this has been discussed before - I'm new to the group - but can anyone tell me how to remove excess or loose embossing powder before I emboss a card? TIA, Jen.

Just posted this in a scrapbooking group, thought I'd share it here too :) Don't forget about using rubber stamps and chalking. Here are some more ideas from my files. **Chalking - Pastels:

Anyone know of a cheap source to buy a custom stamp? I'm hoping to get a stamp made with names or initials done nicely as a wedding gift. Jeannette

Kare, Thanks for the Panda card. My son thought it was announcing the birth of the Baby Panda at the Nat. Zoo, since that is all he thinks about. My daughter looked at every detail. (They are 7 and 4). It was great to get a surprise in the mail. A return should be going out soon. Cindy Using my...

Does anyone else out there like to use glitter in their cards? Even though it gets everywhere, the cats, dog, husband and of course all over my face (!) I love to use glitter to "paint" my cards. Anyone else feel that way? Kare

My wife has several "Stamp'n Up" ink pads that are needing reinked. We have looked locally and on the internet for reinkers but can't seem to find a source other than a demonstrator. Does anybody know of another source for reinkers? It doesn't need to be "Stamp'n Up" if we can match the...

echoing Allison's desire to have some "real" discussion here, let me pose a question. A friend has asked me about the possibility of having me make invitations for her son's wedding. The Bride wants something non-traditional yet elegant and my friend though of some of my cards that she's seen. How...

I saw the new Adirondack Color Washes at the Greater NY Stamping Convention last week and wasn't sure what paper projects I'd use them for. Now I kind of wish I had bought one. Has anybody tried the Adirondack Color Washes? Which colors did you like and what do you use them for? Nancy

I can't remember if that's what they're called, but it's the ones that, when stamped, look like very much like a photo. Anyway, I wonder if anyone has suggestions for the best ink to use (kind? brand?) and how to apply it. I only have a couple of these but haven't got the best results. If you have...

Happy Holidays, honored craft-persons. I have been looking for Stamp It! magazine to give to my wife. Her subscription is overdue and I cannot find it in any of the usual store displays. I thought I would drop it to consult with the best source: all y'all Does anyone know if this periodical is...
