Lynda's Must Have Supplies To Create With - Week 2 of 4

Last week I posted my first pick for supplies to paper craft with, you can check out the post here, but my absolute top pick is my Cricut machine - not only for the die cut shapes, but for the alphabet letters I get to use!  However, this one little machine isn't the only thing I love!!!  
For this weeks MUST HAVE'S....well, I wouldn't have been able to create without them - STAMPS, along with stamp pads, and cardstock that matches all of it!!!!  I love being able to create something and not have to guess as to the colors I am using and will it clash, match or not!  For stamp sets - I have too many favorite's to list, but Stampin' Up right now has a lot of great sets that I MUST have!  Being a demonstrator does not help at all, since I can buy sets now at my cost!!!  I have a design team project that I recently posted (you can check it out here), was done using Creative Paperclay, my alphabet templates, and Stampin' Up stamps, ink pads and paper; great way to recycle jars - and use up the great cardstock you can get too!       

Stamps can be used with scrapbooking for one of a kind embellishments, use on blank cards for birthdays, holidays, baby or bridal showers, and any other kind of event/thing you can think of, and on any other paper crafting project you are working on!  I love to emboss my stamped images, to create a raised look for each image!  Great to use on vellum with white ink and embossing powder for a totally unique look - or emboss in black so you can paint within the edges!  Either way it goes, stamps - and basic stamp sets are WONDERFUL to create with!  
Thanks for stopping by, and make sure you check back next week for week 3 of my 4 weeks must have tools to create with!
