Woot-Woot – it's Friday! I am oober happy as it has been a tough week at work and guess what…in my dear little town, Bill Cosby is coming on Saturday! I am excited to see this amazing man and I look forward to getting more smile lines of laughter on my face!
Today is a post that is different for me…but one that I stand behind completely!
I am going to share with you 10 products that are under $10.00 that I simply would not be without! It's funny – there are actually more than 10 but I am just going to give you 10 and…..
There are no Stamps Sets in this….
(you know I adore many of the single stamps….but that is not for today!)
I will also let you know that these are not in any particular order…just me thinking of what I could not be without!
Remember….if you have the tools that make you shine and even if you are having a blizzard where you live…your projects will come out amazing….every-time…cause having the right tools will always result in a great finished project!
Please make sure that you look at the thump nails at the end…..you can click and add them into a shopping cart right from home in your jammies – now that's my kind of shopping!
#1 – Note Cards and Envelopes – O.k…guilty – you know I love these gems and now that there are (2) colors…it should be 2 but I am counting them as one! They come in Whisper White and Crumb Cake. $5.95
#2 – Moonlight and All Abloom Paper Stacks – o.k. – guilty again (sorry!!!!) here are 2 more but again, I am counting them as 1….these are THE BEST….not only are the color selections incredible – WOWZERS….so affordble! $6.95
#3 – Paper Snips – I simply do not know what I would do without these precious black scissors….they have been loved so much by all of my family….they each got their own for Christmas so they stop taking mine! $9.95
#4 – Stampin' Mist – I clean my stamps each and everytime I use them BUT (I do use the Stampin' Scrub but that is over $10.00 but hint-hint…you need it) $4.50
#5 – Stampin' Stylus – WHY???? I use this gem everytime to "push down" the centers of flowers – wow! #4.50
#6 – Bone Folder – Could not be without it….I love CLEAN & CRISP FOLDS….such a handy tool! $6.95
#7 – Stampin' Dimensionals – O.k. – how can you have a day without your Stampin' Dimensionals…it simply cannot happen….any Doctor will say that you need your daily Stampin' Vitamins! $3.95
#8 – Multi Purpose Liquid Glue – I call this the "green glue" and I will say it is the best – A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY…I can say that I never lift the tip off my project (that's how thin it can be) $3.95
#9 – Stampin' Pierce Mat – WHY???? This is GREAT to stamp on larger stamp images…(especially the photopolymer stamps)…PERFECT leverage! $4.95 ( I actually have 2 of these – 1 for stampin and the other for paper piercing….)
#10 – Silicone Craft Sheet – this is a "secret weapon" – LOVE IT……it is perfect to adhere things together and then let the adhesive "roll" off…this works for all of our adhesives! $5.95
I hope that you have has fun as I have had with today's post….I know it's different but it is important! We all know that when we have the "right tools" – life is easier….think about your kitchen….when you are in order...it works….think about doing laundry….when you have the right cleaners….it works!
This is the same about making projects….I hope that this has made you think and has also inspired you to make sure you have the tools in order!
You know what….???

Until tomorrow!
I would love to go see Bill Cosby! Have a wonderful time!
All your suggestions are great ones. Some day I just have to get a real bone folder. It always gets dropped off the order when I have to pare an order down. I have a flexible plastic “bone” folder which came with the non-SU scoring board I have and a stiff plastic “bone” folder from one of the big box stores, which I just found the other day. I really do keep thinking I want a better folder.
I will probably have to buy those paper stacks! They have so many pretty patterns in them!
Have a great weekend! I look forward to catching up on your projects on Sunday, as we are going to Brussels, Belgium for the weekend, returning Sunday late afternoon. (Isn’t that weird, “We are going to Brussels for the weekend.”? I still find it weird to say things like that!)
Cyberhugs!
I think you should do this on a regular basis because it`s fun for Friday ! I agree with your selections 100%… Have a great weekend and enjoy Bill Cosby !
Fabulous list. Fabulous find!
Great list of necessities. I just added the craft sheet to my wish list. Thanks a bunch and have a great weekend. Oh, and yes, yes, yes . . . Enjoy Bill Cosby!!! 🙂
Great list! I had the silicone craft sheet to use when I made all the snowflakes from that kit at Christmas and it was wonderful! It is also great to use for heat embossing. I used the removable glue stuff or dots or whatever is convenient to attach the piece then heat emboss without burning your fingers and protects the finish on your table too. If you use a glue gun it is the best! I think I need to have a second piercing mat as I do like it for stamping with the clear stamps. Then mine with all the holes in can be dedicated to what it was intended. Don’t forget the embossing buddy next time – once you have oil from your fingerprint on a card and the EP gets on it, you have an additional element to your project if you like it or not. Or, if not all of it brushed off it can leave a halo effect too. Been there and done that on both!
I have all of your list and couldn’t do without any of them… oops I am doing without one thing, I have not purchased my nips yet, that once keeps getting deducted from my list when some have to get pared down…I will say though I Love My BONE FOLDER, it is the best bone folder I have seen, and it is so much better than the one that came with my scoreboard. I love that it fits into the tiny slots, the one that came with it didn’t. Thanks for your list, wish I lived in your town, I love Bill Cosby. Enjoy!
