I really like this watercolour paper. I'd love it to come back into stock again. It's wonderful to work with has a lovely heavy weight, takes water and colour really well. I've been very happy with it.

They had me at 'plaid'. I adore tartan and plaid designs. This tartan is a fun traditional style Scottish tartan probably closest to MacPherson of Cluny Red Tartan. Regardless of whether it's based on an actual tartan, it carries that fabulous look and feel and is something I reach for around Christmas time in particular, especially red tartans. This'll be a fun one to use this year!

I just adore this shade of blue. It's beautiful! Gina K's cardstock is absolutely fabulous. A really nice heavy weight and solid colour. It's fabulous for both card bases and for layering. I'm building a collection of this lovely cardstock, I want it all!

Lovely set of brighter colours to watercolour with. Lovely shades for floral creations and so easy to get a gradient of colour from the same marker with watercolouring. Really enjoying my Zig Real Brush Markers at the moment. Beautiful colours and watercolour beautifully.

That's the full set! I've added the ampersand last and I've all the alphabet dies now, so my set is complete. I'm happy I'll be able to make any name or word now. These are so fabulous for name cards and work fab on slimlines!

Another letter added to the collection. A 'U' this time, it's in my brother's name so had to have it and so close to completing my full alphabet now! Fab dies, so happy with them.

Adding another letter to my alphabet collection and this time, I needed a 'p'. Perfect to almost complete my collection! So happy with these large alphabet dies.

I'm working my way through the alphabet, starting with the letters I needed for family names etc, I have the full alphabet finally and this was one of the recent ones I added. So happy with these lovely letter dies.

This is my 'go to' foam sheet of choice for added dimension and popping up card panels. I really like this loft, not to deep and not too shallow, just right! Though I'm keen to try out the newer 1mm and 3mm sheets, just out of curiosity. I know I'll come back to this though.

The hues in this pack are so pretty. I've used several pages and they are the trusted quality I've come to expect from SBC. Great for diecutting and layering. I'll be buying this pad again.

I like the retractable nature of this craft knife. Similar to a biro with a retractable nib. It's easy to use and fits nicely in my hand. I love that it's pink too!

Penny Black has such lovely card toppers. The paper they're made from is textured and substantial, they're really lovely to work with and take stamping well too. I've made some quick and pretty cards with just a decorative diecut border and some stamped sentiments.

Another fun plaid with some fabulous cards on the reverse. So fun for boy makes. I've not used it yet, but full of ideas!

I love plaid paper and this paper with its masculine hues is just yummy. I've used it as a photo mat so far, not quite brave enough to cut into it yet. Will clearly need to buy another page!

This pen is lovely to write with and has crisp dark ink. A great addition to any letter writers stash.

I'm no expert on watercolour paper, but this paper has worked perfectly for my Betterpress creations and has been easy to add watercolour mediums to after using the Betterpress. Nice weight, feels substantial and good quality. Very happy with it.

I just love this alphabet set from Spellbinders. I'd have loved to have picked up the whole set outright! But I've been collecting all the letters one by one as I could afford to. Just such a fun and timeless set!

I used these for the first time recently and now I'm totally sold on these adorable little tiny clips. Great to have the different colour options in the same package. I'm really happy with them.

I bought this for splatter having previously bought the smaller bottle made specifically for splatter. I prefer this larger bottle, after a good shake I can drop some onto an acrylic block and splatter with a paint brush, so satisfying! Great product.

Ooh I've been hanging out to get these and I'm not disappointed. They stack nicely and are sturdy and firm. There's no warping of their shape, so they fit as they should and stack beautifully. I often have little diecuts all over my table, so these are exactly what I've been needing, really pleased with these lovely trays.

I sometimes want just a little dimension on things, not too much, especially if posting overseas! So these new 1mm loft foam rounds are just fabulous. A must have in my crafty stash now.

I was so excited to see this set of colours come up, some of my favourites from the Distress Range and so lovely to have them as cubes. Easy to handle for ink smooshing, fabulous!

This is such a pretty colour, it washes out to a purple tone with water. But it has lovely rich colour and is very pretty. I used it to colour up a sunflower recently and it came up so pretty. Just this one pen with water to get the different hues, it worked so well.

This is such a brilliant set! I know it's meant as a Christmas mix of colours, but this is brilliant all year round and the quality is fabulous. There are a couple of papers that feel a bit lighter, they'd be maybe 160gsm, but the majority feel like 180gsm or more. Lovely strong cardstock that would stand up to being card bases, but not so heavy you can't layer them. Gorgeous colours too, from the soft and pastel through to strong bold rich dark colours. I'd love a second set now, the price was excellent for all you get and the metallic cardstocks are lovely too.

I think I'm in danger of having 'full set syndrome', I'm getting drawn in by each new BetterPress ink colour set Spellbinders release! This set is gorgeous, the ink shades are just so lovely and now I've got my eye on the new set with the Peridot colour. The inks are fabulous and although I know some other inks have been tested with the system, I like to use the original ink that was created specially to work with the system. These are fabulous. They're a nice size to hold to ink up the press plates and give brilliant coverage.

I'm really enjoying my Pinkfresh Studio Floral Sets at the moment. The stamps, dies and stencils are making quick but beautiful cards so much easier. The stencils are well made and easy to line up. I have several sets now and love them all.

Such a beautiful paper for that special occasion. A really lovely tone on tone finish with the heart details. Perfect for wedding creations, but will work for any love, friendship or gratitude themed creations too.

This is a pretty sentiment die with a lovely mix of fonts. It's a nice size, substantial, but small enough still to be used as a companion to an image. Large enough however to be made the feature too. Very happy with it.

This is a great pack of papers in a mix of colours. A lovely substantial weight to the paper. I really like the colour palette, there's a wonderful spread of colours and tones. I'll be reordering!

Perfect stamp cleaner for archival inks. Far less smelly than a previous one I'd used. It cleans well and completely. I'm very happy with it.

I really like this paper, it has a fun Jack Skellington vibe and both sides are fabulous, so much so, I think I need to order a second page! I'm looking forward to using this for Halloween. The paper is a lovely weight, substantial not flimsy. I'm really happy with it.

This is such a funky abstract floral design. The stencils are sturdy and I had no problem getting a beautiful result whilst stencilling these designs. The layers are lovely, great details. I really like the finished design.

I bought this paper for the fabulous brown and red plaid. I LOVE it. An unexpected pairing of colour and one I really like. I'm crazy about plaid, if a paper set has a plaid in it, it's almost a given I'll want it! I think I'll need another of these.

I am starting to shred the head of my very old Jumbo Sponge Dauber and I love having one to edge my cards if I'm distressing them. I find this much easier than using a brush or distress sponge tool. I have two designated for the task, one for oxides, one for dye ink. Happy to be able to replace my ageing one. It's well loved and used and seen better days.

I am really enjoying using Lunar Paste, the texture is dreamy and it dries incredibly quickly! I like adding it to projects with my finger tips for a light touch of colour or through a stencil to add accents. I have several colours now and this delish chocolate colour was a must have for me!

I love a good woodgrain paper, great as a photo prop or for so many card designs, so versatile. Note that the reverse side is four 6x6 image options, not a full page, nice if you want to cut down for cards, but the front tree slice design is what I bought this page for, so I'm very happy with it.

This die was perfect to add to my stash after buying the beautiful stencils for this set. I love having the option to diecut and pop up the floral centrepiece. Great to have and cuts like a dream.

I have the rest of this fabulous set from Pinkfresh, the stencils and die, so really wanted to get the outline stamp. This can work as a stand alone stamp, watercoloured or copic coloured, lots of possibilities, but works SO beautifully with the stencils and die.

I adore Swedish Tomten and these little embellishments are very cute. I need to tidy up the beards on a couple, just shape them with my scissors a bit, but otherwise happy with these cute embellishments. Their felt hats are lovely. Great price point too.

Lovely weight paper, beautiful design and colours. I adore both sides of this design, I definitely need to buy another to be able to use both sides! Very happy with it.

These envelopes are such a great neutral tone which works well with so many cards, really great addition to my stash and I'll absolutely be ordering more when I run out. I really like the weight and beautiful finish of these envelopes. They're lick and stick to seal.

Elegant sturdy navy envelopes. They're a nice weight and look and feel so substantial and make a lovely finish to a matching project. I'm loving the range of colours available from Gina K. I'll absolutely be reordering when I run out. Lick and stick to seal. Note a pigment pen or label would be needed to address the envelope as it's very dark.

I adore green and all shades of it, so had to have these lovely A2 size envelopes from Gina K. They are a lovely weight and feel elegant and substantial. I'm loving all the Gina K envelopes I've bought and I've bought quite a few now. They are lick and stick.

I've seen these used in many of the 'Tim Holtz Makers' projects and just LOVE the way they look coloured up with alcohol inks 'Tim Style'. I'm excited to try colouring them but right now, just loving them in their pearly natural shade. Lovely range of sizes and generous amount in the packet.

This tiny bottle of shimmer holds the loveliest watercolour splash to add to your projects, but I must say I found the tiny brush and short length very difficult to get a decent 'splash' from, so I prefer to add it to an acrylic block and flick it from there. The gold shimmer is really pretty, but add 'after' diecutting, as mine stuck to the cutting plates and the lovely rounded spots got flattened. Looked fabulous before making that mistake.

I really like this set of flat back pearls it has several different coffee coloured hues in the mix and all with a beautiful sheen to them. So pretty! I'm really happy with them.

Beautiful selection of shades of red flat back pearls with the most beautiful sheen to them. There are several sizes in the pack and a few shades of red, so work well with most red projects. I'm really happy with them.

I LOVE the Gina K A2 size envelopes, they're perfect for A2 makes and come in so many lovely colours! This Cherry Red is such a bold true 'blue' red, not an orange red at all, a really lovely shade of red. I'm really pleased with these envelopes, they're lick and stick, but as long as that isn't a deal breaker for ya, they're fabulous.

I LOVE the Gina K A2 size envelopes, they're perfect for A2 makes and come in so many lovely colours! This Sea Glass Blue is such a soft pretty pale blue, very aptly named Sea Glass. I'm really pleased with these envelopes, they're lick and stick, but as long as that isn't a deal breaker for ya, they're fabulous.

I LOVE the Gina K A2 size envelopes, they're perfect for A2 makes and come in so many lovely colours! This Innocent Pink is such a soft pretty petal pink, not as bright at the bubblegum pink which is more of a candy pink colour. I'm really pleased with these envelopes, they're lick and stick, but as long as that isn't a deal breaker for ya, they're fabulous.

Lovely set of pink eyelets. They're really pretty and I'm very happy with them for topping my tags and other designs that eyelets work with.

I am so happy with this Glow-In-The-Dark embossing powder. I had tried another brand, which didn't 'stick' to the embossing ink at all and just came off not melting when embossed, so was super pleased to find this does exactly what it should. It melts like a traditional embossing powder and it Glows-In-The-Dark! It's fabulous, won't try another now, really happy with it!

The quality of these envelopes is fabulous and the colour is a true lime green. Gorgeous and perfect size for US A2 cards. I'm really happy with them and will be buying more colours in the range. So lovely to have Gina K Designs at Scrapbook.com now.

These rustic feel brads have a really cool finish and the rounded top is lovely. I've used them a couple of times now and I'm really happy with the finish and function. They're good quality.

This acetate is so pretty! The golden details in the design are a lovely touch and the black web details are not as heavy as they look in the promo picture, they're very delicate. It's a really lovely acetate with a substantial weight. Great quality.

The perfect weight for envelopes and match their cardstock counterpart perfectly. Really happy with any of the Gina K range of envelopes I've bought. They're at a great price point, are fabulous quality and the colours are gorgeous. This black is a dark true black. Love it!

I'm working my way through collecting this full alphabet. I LOVE the size, the detail the perfect diecut. Really happy with the letters I have so far and will be getting them all.

Three of my favourite Mica Stain Colours are in this set! The green of Bubbling Cauldron, the purple of Hocus Pocus and the golden brown of Crooked Broomstick are some of my absolute favourites in the Mica Stain range. SO happy to see them come back again. I have all the Halloween Mica Stains now and working my way through the Christmas colours. LOVE working with them.

I missed ordering these the first year they were released, so I was super excited to be able to get them this year. I absolutely DO have 'full set syndrome' with the Mica Stains, they are so fun to work with and give such gorgeous shimmer and shine to makes. Love them!

Faux Candy brilliance in this little parcel. I was so pleased to be able to get the mix of confectionery like this. I just finished watching Tim 'sugar coat' them and cannot wait to try that with Rock Candy Glitter. It gives such a fun finish. Very happy with these.

The countdown brads are fabulous. Such a cool idea to add to Advent makes or Halloween Countdowns. I'm really happy with them!

The poses and design of these cats is Tim Holtz classic! They're mischievous, curious, fun poses. Cut like a dream and come in the fabulous Sizzix storage pouch making caring for them so easy!

Had to have the 'W'! Still working my way through collecting the full alphabet. I'm so happy with this set and know it will be one I reach for year after year. It has a timeless elegance to it. So I don't expect the look will 'date'. Really happy with the ones I've collected so far.

Great to keep in my MISTI for holding pages still while stamping. Perfect when you want to stamp 'off the edge' of a design and it wouldn't work to have the paper butted up against the MISTI edges. I replace the cover after use to extend the grip life.

These retro vibe transfers are so pretty. I've yet to create with them, but they're so pretty, they're sitting in my 'stroke only' stash right now. I will be brave and crack open the packaging soon though, they're calling to me to be created with! A lovely treat to be sent from Scrapbook.com.

This plaid is gorgeous, a really lovely one for Halloween, or if you just love orange! The back is fab too, with a black and white bold stripe. Really lovely good quality paper. Very happy with it.

Simple Stories has some of my favourite Washi Tape designs, they come in fun bundles and are always great quality and gorgeous patterns. I've been happy with every Washi Tape set I've bought from them (and yes, I have quite a few!)

This colour is so fun! A true bright lime green. I've used it for some Halloween creations lately and it's been perfect, exactly what I was hoping for. I got the matching envelopes and really love how well they coordinate. SO nice to have Gina K products available through Scrapbook.com. So happy!

I was excited to get this for my Halloween creating. It's a great heavy-weight cardstock that stands up well to diecutting, makes great bases and takes stencil mediums well. I'll be re-ordering soon.

I really enjoy using this creamy dreamy stencil butter. It goes on smoothly, dries really quite quickly and looks fabulous. The colour was slightly lighter than I expected, it's not a dark Aubergine colour, but more a mid purple, but still really lovely. Fun for Halloween!

This paper is fun, the mummy side is awesome for Halloween makes, but I just HAD to have the plaid! It's a wider plaid, larger bolder design, but really fabulous. I'll need a second page I think!

I'm going to have to order a second page of this fabulous paper, because both sides are so fabulous! I'm definitely going to need two! (Or more!) Good weight and fabulous print quality.

This paper is awesome, a really fun colour for Halloween and the bats design is fabulous. The plainer black and white stripe is an elegant back for the design too. Nice weight and beautifully printed.

I hoped this paper might have the metallic foil on the spider web side as it does in one of the paper packs, but alas not for this 12x12 sheet. But it's still a gorgeous paper and I'm otherwise very happy with it. The cats are fabulous!

This washi tape is adorable! I think the little ghost characters are super cute and adorale with their extra details like Harry Potter glasses and sunglasses. A really fun Washi Tape.

A lovely size for crafty adventures. I can store what I'm working on all together and keep projects contained if I need to clear my space. Really happy with this. The zipper works well and it's large enough to fit a full A4 UK size page or US Letter 8.5 x 11" page. Really handy and great quality.

I'm working my way through collecting the whole alphabet, these are fabulous, a great size, cut well and you can choose to add stitching details or not. I've used loose glitter often to fill that feature to great effect!

I'm still working my way through collecting the full alphabet, little by little getting there. I needed a 'V' for a family members name, so this is perfect! Great size, cuts well. Really happy with it.

I was surprised when these arrived that they're a little darker more rustic in tone than what is shown, but I'm not at all unhappy. I like the more rustic grungy tones they arrived in and can see I'll get plenty of use from these. Fabulous eyelets.

Great to have some narrow foam strips in black. Perfect for darker makes, especially those Halloween Shaker cards. Very happy with the dimension of these and the choice of different widths. Really cool product.

This paper is amazing! It has the most fabulous leather look and although I prefer the darker side of the paper for layouts and backdrops, the yellow is also gorgeous. Really happy with it.

I love elements with Scandinavian influence, so I had to have a few of these beautiful papers in this set with the very Scandinavian inspired designs. I really like this dala horse design. Beautiful papers.

I had considered getting a pressure tool earlier, but didn't like the round shape when my stamp tool had square corners, it was counterintuitive to me. So I was super excited when this gorgeous pressure tool was released with it's perfect slightly rounded but essentially square corners! Much more sensible shape and I love using it. The felt is thick and soft and the tool is lovely to hold and use. Very happy with it! Oh and it's PINK! LOVE that!

This glitter gel is not quite as dark as I expected it would be, more of a gunmetal grey than a black. But it's gorgeous and a really lovely consistency. Really nice to work with.

A cute set of small pom poms in fun bright colours.

This is a really gorgeous paper range, I absolutely LOVE it! I've collected quite a few of the 12 x 12 pages now. I love the mix of vintage imagery and cute images. Too cute to spook and just how I love Halloween papers!

Such a gorgeous paper range, I absolutely LOVE this! I've collected quite a few of the 12 x 12 pages now. May end up being 'stroke only', but I may just have to pull on my big girl pants and cut into it. It's just SO gorgeous. I love the mix of vintage imagery and cute images.

This red is my favourite from the Distress range. It's just such a lush 'blue red' and it's rich and gorgeous. I'm delighted with this purchase. I only have the oxide, but love the colour so much, I need the original Distress ink now too.

This is such a pretty diecut spray of flowers. Cuts beautifully and lots of options for combining the pieces. Several layers, which can be cut in different hues adding shade and dimension, it's a lovely set!

I love the glorious Autumnal hues and scenes on these papers. Both sides are just gorgeous! Very happy with it.

I love this pattern, wonderful for any make, but especially great for those lads makes! I'm always pleased with my Pinkfresh Studio Stencils, well made and easy to use. Fabulous!

I love Boho Retro papers and this is a lovely collection with all the right vibes! Very happy with it.

This paper is gorgeous and both sides are fun! I'll need a second piece, so I can use both sides, for sure! That floral is gorgeous, a really fun mix of colours. Great for journals, cards and scrapbook layouts.

I ADORE this paper pack. It's so fun for Halloween. A good mix of papers, and mix of steampunk and Halloween imagery. It's just fabulous. Nice weight of paper and a great size too.

This jute string is quite 'stiff' and strong, but still a really nice fine thread. Perfect if you need that bow to stay put! Not the right choice if you want soft floaty strands. But excellent for what I needed.

I love map papers, I collect them all! This one is fabulous and a really nice heavy weight. Perfect for scrapbooking and cardmaking or as I often use my bigger 12x12 papers, for backgrounds in photo layouts. Really happy with it.

I think this is such a brilliant die, the details are gorgeous and really do convey that beautiful Kimono elegance. I absolutely love it!

Fun in a pot! I'm gearing up for Halloween, so this has already been out for a play and it's fabulous! A very cool and interesting texture, interesting to work with as it doesn't 'spread' like regular pastes, it's more textured, but this creates wonderful gritty finishes and it dries well and stays put!

I'm a crackle paste novice, but oh my goodness, so much fun to be explored with this medium. I know I've lots to learn, but I'm really happy with the product and excited to play and explore the finishes.

I've been watching Tiffany Solorio creating and it was becoming apparent this is 'must have stash'! So I've finally bought this little set and I must say, I'm delighted. Works beautifully on my alcohol ink pages, very happy with it.

What's not to love about this combo?! That distressed wood is GORGEOUS. I'm never cutting it up! It'll live in my 'stroke only' pile, hehe. I love the aesthetic of this paper, it's a lovely weight and beautifully printed.

I think these sets of three stencils from Vicki Boutin are outstanding value for money! Gorgeous stencils, well made and sturdy with such lovely and varying designs. This travel set is fabulous. I have bought several of her sets now and I'm delighted with them all!

I think these sets of three stencils from Vicki Boutin are outstanding value for money! Gorgeous stencils, well made and sturdy with such lovely and varying designs. I have bought several of her sets now and know I'll be back for more!

I love the colours in this palette, they are SO pretty! The watercolours are shimmery with a metallic sheen. They're creamy and lovely. I'm not fabulous with watercolouring, but these make me want to learn!

This was a freebie with my order and what a treat! It's a lovely size and font style. A real 'centrepiece' element. Lovely to have.

Super cute and fun Halloween papers! I need to buy a second one so I can use both sides! Super cute characters and definitely in the 'too cute to spook' camp, just my thing! Lovely weight of paper too.

When you need a sentiment in a hurry and don't own a foil machine, these are an elegant alternative! Good mix of sizes, fonts, sayings and styles. A versatile handy set to have.

A great size for those smaller stencil details. Lovely boxed presentation, beautifully made and lovely to use.

This smooth cardstock is a medium weight great for layering and paper piecing. Gorgeous bright colours in this set and fabulous in slimline. Really happy with all my smooth cardstock sets from SBC.

Just what I needed for night scenes especially with Halloween on its way! Love that the mask and details are seperate stencils and the range of sizes is brilliant! A well thought out, cleverly designed stencil set.

I'm so pleased with these creamy dreamy watercolours from Vicki Boutin. They have a lovely texture and opacity. Really pretty hues and lovely to use with a metallic sheen to them. So pretty!

Pardon the pun, but this really is a cinch to use! Simple instructions, simple mechanism and makes really lovely coil bound books. It's easy to work out how to punch a row of holes if you want to bind a wider book and has a smaller lighter footprint than the bigger version. I really think it punches above its weight. Very happy with this purchase!

This sweet set is a lovely one to decorate the back of your cards! Makes me smile and is sure to make a recipient smile too. Sweet illustration by the wonderfully talented Anita Jeram.

Such a gorgeous pumpkin hued Autumn washi tape. I love gingham and I love Autumn, perfect match I think!

Brontë said it well "every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the Autumn tree" and I think this paper captures this so beautifully! A nice weight and such pretty caramel Autumn hues. Love it!

I adore this alphabet set. I don't want to sit and stitch it, but it can be used many other ways too and still looks gorgeous. I'm working my way through collecting the whole set. The letters are a great size and are wonderful for names on cards. I've recently created a few slimline masculine cards using these and they all looked quite different but equally fabulous.

This is a great paper pad, with some lovely shades. It's a medium weight paper, so great for layering. I've used it recently to create some silhouette style diecuts on on a design and they came up really nicely. The black is a very dark charcoal black, not a jet black. Very happy with this paper pad and it's size too.

I've used this shimmer pen several times now and it really does add a lovely layer of sparkle. Easy to prime and get flowing and lays down a good coverage of sparkle. Happy with it.

There's a subtle sparkle to this embossing powder. I was expecting a matt pink from the description, but it has a subtle sparkle to it. It's very pretty and a really lovely shade of pink. Happy with it.

I really liked the mix of hues in this paper set. I also really liked that it was a 'mix' of colours. So many of the sets are multiples of the same colour. I wanted a variety of colours and I'm delighted with this set. It's a lovely weight too.

Perfect State Memorabilia for a Duke University scrapbook! Very happy with this.

This embellishment is perfect for a Scrapbook and Memory Keeping journal I'm making for my nephew whose been studying at Duke. A good size to have as a feature on a page. Very happy with it.

I love the look of this stunning Wisteria Paper, it's dreamy and beautiful with a really lovely watercolour effect to the paper. Nice substantial weight to the paper too. Very happy with it.

Such a lovely floral set with a great spray of flowers and a lovely mix of sentiments in the set. Very happy with this set.

These washi tape designs are really fun and will be perfect for Halloween creations. I really like the tapes I've bought from Simple Stories, they stick well and are a good weight. Very happy with them.

Lovely Mix of Autumnal Themed Washi Tapes. I've only used one of the tapes so far, but very happy with the set. I know I'll use them more as we move towards Autumn.

A lovely silver embossing powder, melts well and quickly and is a really nice silvery tone. My new 'go to' for silver embossing.

How lovely is this sentiment die?! I really love the mix of fonts and typography of this die. It's a good size for cardmaking and a timeless sentiment.

I just love the range of greens in this beautiful paper set. The plain matt finish to the papers is lovely. The front of the paper is a solid colour but the back is white, so not a solid colour core. The depth and richness of these colours is fabulous, and I'll definitely buy again. Do note that it is in UK A4 size, not US Letter.

I love the rich colours of this range. The grape and mulberry hues are very close in reality to what I saw on my screen. The front of the paper is a solid colour but the back is white, so not a solid colour core. Its beautiful range of colours has a matt finish. The richness of colours is fabulous, and I'll definitely buy again. Do note that it is in UK A4 size, not US Letter.

I really like this fabulous Washi Tape set. Homegrown has all the country vibes and feels and will work with a range of themes and makes.

The blush pink blooms on this paper are so lovely. There's a retro chic, nostalgic feel about this paper collection. I absolutely love this pattern combination. Such lovely colours.

This paper collection is so incredibly pretty. I love them all, but this one with its Mustard Blooms and pretty Pink Butterflies really is a gorgeous combination.

I adore this range from Simple Stories. It's such a pretty selection of designs and the colour combos are lush. The Washi Tape coordinates really nicely with the paper collection. Very happy with this Washi set.

I really like the style and design of these pumpkins from Penny Black. They just have a whimsical look and feel about them. I love Autumn, and cannot wait to make some cards featuring these lovely dies.

This green Oxide Ink has a piece of my heart. Green is my favourite colour and this shade works with some many themes and blends. It's soft, muted and beautiful.

I love working with Oxide inks. Great for stamping, for ink blending and smooshing. This pink is such a pretty 'shabby chic' pink. I really love it.

I am working my way through collecting this alphabet set from Spellbinders. I really like the size and the style of the alphabet and have used it several times already for creations. I know it's an alphabet die set I'll come back to again and again. Classic crafty stash.

I've recently discovered these 'three in one' sets of stencils from Vicki Boutin and I really like the combination of designs. This one is super cool, with three fabulous and very different designs. What I also love about these sets though, is the fabulous price point. These sets of three are often only a little more than other single stencils. A real bargain and some great combinations of designs.

I saw another crafter create with this and 'had to have it'! It's so cute used with paste. I've yet to create with it, but I already know it's fabulous. Super cute stencil!

I have visions of this for Christmas cards. I've yet to use it, but yes, it's as cute in person as it is on the screen. A really fun stencil! Rows of rainbow houses for Christmas cards anyone?!

I have too much Washi Tape! Oh who am I kidding, I love it and will eventually use it all! I never have enough and this washi is cute and pretty and fun. It's a great mix of designs!

This die set finishes the stencilled and stamped imagery so beautifully and there are a few of ways of using the diecut elements to bring a different look. Use it as a whole or cut apart sections. Beats fussy cutting the whole thing!

This is such a pretty leafy frame, which can be used with or without the stamp. The stencilling is pretty on its own, but equally lovely diecut or stamped too.

This is a really lovely 'big' floral design. Use it in a corner for a smaller design or the big beautiful image all at once, either way, it's striking and lovely.

Layering Stencils, I resisted for a while, but honestly, they do make a really quick and easy job of colouring up a big floral. LOVE that! Pinkfresh have some of the nicest layering stencil designs I think. This is intricate and detailed and really lovely.

I had to have this after watching Tiffany Solorio use it with alcohol inks and a gel plate! So cool.

I really like the width of this tape. I often use the 2 inch wide tape for covering big backgrounds, but when you don't need the entire background sticky, this width is 'just enough' for a good strong hold all around the sides of a panel.

This is a really brilliant low tack tape. I use it almost every time I craft and sometimes have even diecut it after I've accidentally sprayed it during a make, because it looked so pretty! Brilliant for holding down stencils, masking off areas, holding dies in place. It really is my 'go to' low tack tape.

This is such a pretty shade in the Pops of Color line. One of my favourites!

Lovely for journaling, detailing and anything you should wish a silver pen for. Lovely.

This paper has all the rustic charm I wanted, it's absolutely lovely.

This is lovely for Christmas crafting, lots of sparkle! Not a dimensional glue, dries back flat, but lots of sparkle.

These gems have a lovely iridescent shine that catch the light so beautifully, fun for galaxy scenes, halloween cards and any other crafty projects you might wish darker gems for. A nice range of sizes in this bag too.

There are multiple sizes of these pretty pearlescent gems. The sheen is beautiful, a lovely accent for cards and layouts.

These tiny embellishments are super cute with the sweetest multicoloured stars inside. Lovely to top a tag or as an accent on cards and layouts.

I really enjoy working with these card blanks. They're standard A2 size and though they're labelled as Landscape Format, I would say they're more acurately 'top folding' card blanks as they fold on the short side, not long side, giving a top folding portrait card or short side folding landscape card. Really great quality, I like using these.

This is a really pretty texture paste with lots of sparkle. Lovely to add that extra texture and detail to cards and layouts.

Such a fun die for 'that pal' that would appreciate it. Cuts well and fills a card beautifully. A real feature piece.

This cardstock is gorgeous. It has a lovely textured finish and fabulous copper sheen to it. Really lovely for stepping up those masculine makes or metallic finishes on projects. Love it.

This cardstock is gorgeous, it has a woven texture and lovely pearlescent sheen to it. Perfect for those snowy diecut scenes or for wedding cards etc. Lovely.

I love this blue green ink colour, a fabulous addition to the Distress line. Works beautifully with both the blue and the green tones of distress inks. I've blended it with Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina, for a lovely deep sea card and also with Broken China and Tumbled Glass for another sea themed make. Tones beautifully with those inks.

I really like this product. It's great for my slimline dies, works a treat for those dies with multiple pieces. It fits perfectly into my Scrapbook.com Slimline Storage envelopes, which I really like too. A great pairing for storing slimline dies. I've actually used both sides of the magnetic sheet in one storage pocket. So you can make it store two sets per pocket. Works great for me.

This A2 layering die set is fabulous. I like the close layers and the stitch detail is a fabulous subtle touch for layers. The size is perfect for US A2 size cards. I was also really pleased with the great price point for a multiple die set like this. Great quality, cuts beautifully on first pass.

I was delighted when the blending brushes arrived with little caps over the bristles, an unexpected and lovely extra. They're similar to other blending brushes I have and a lovely size to work with. Very happy with them.

I love this birthday sentiment set. I've used mine loads and it is often what I reach for when I want that 'special' birthday sentiment. I highly recommend this. The fonts used are elegant and there is a lovely range of sentiments in the set. They stamp perfectly first time too!
