I've used all these hacks.....they're great! Here's another: if you have die cuts with no matching dies, you can use them to cut fun foam and make your own stamps. For example, I bought some MFT flower dies and did not buy the matching stamps (I know.....what was I thinking???) No problem....I just used the dies to cut fun foam and attached the foam to an acrylic block. Presto: instant stamp.
Kia Ora Simon!
Great tips, love the watercolour ink palette idea, no clean up suits me!
I've got two ideas for you, firstly, I've added Velcro dots to the underside of my distress ink pads to store my blending tool foams, no more getting them mixed up and second, I take my dirty, no longer sticking clear stamps to the sink, and wash in a small amount of very basic, cheap dishwash liquid, rinsing with plain water. I leave them to dry off before returning to their storage sheets. Keep the ideas coming!
I really like the tip for making your stamps stick to the backing again. Thanks
I really enjoyed your video. Especially the Novus hint and all of it's uses. Keep up the good work.
Love your videos and love your energy! I'm glad your slowing down a little when you talk! You have great ideas....keep the videos coming!
Love your videos. Never thought to use my Novus on anything else other than my misti. Thanks 😊
+Goli Hashemi thanks! Yes, the novus cleaner works wonders on plastic!!! :)
Great hack video! :) I use the laminate/magnetic cartridge for the xyron sticker maker to make my own magnetic sheets for dies. I stick those in small page protector and stick those in a small binder. Hugs from Sweden!
+Rigmor Olsson sounds awesome! 👏🏻
Oh my goodness, I just discovered your channel a few hours ago and I love it. I made my first ever card yesterday and I think I'm hooked!!! Thanks for the hacks, they rock
Thanks for the Novus cleaning tip. I have 2 big bottles and I will start using them now.
thanks for bone folder info.
Nice video, I havent heard of the Novus cleaner and I do have the mini misty. No one told me about a cleaner for it. So thanks so much for the tips. Great job, but still going so darned fast. please relax and slow down a little. Otherwise great video. I Aalso read in your comments about a glitter clean up tool, well heres a little tip for you, I use the Rust-Oleum Tack Cloth, it removes dust and fine particles and is only $1.97 at Wal-Mart. And it works wonderfully on glitter!!!!
Something tells me that if you keep up all this good work you just might be as popular as Tim Holtz. He got started about your age too and now he is a house hold name.
:)
Love all of your great tips. Thank you for sharing
Thanks! Did not know about he plastic cleaner. Just ordered.
My tip: When you use a scoring tool, the side you are pressing into is supposed to be the outside of the crease.
+Julika7 thanks for the tip... looks like I've been doing it wrong! :)
Inklipse I did so as well. ;)
Hi Simon,Happy Thanksgiving. If you like to play with glitter,swiffer cloths pick it up with no mess.
+Valerie Breingan thanks for the tip!!!
I would have never thought to use the nuvous cleaner on my trimmer. My trimmer gets stuck because it is sticky currently, hopefully this will help. Thanks
+Brandy Duncan hopefully it works for you! :)

Btw this was very helpful
I buy premade blank cards - haven't made a card base in ten years 😄👍🏻
Rosy Cheek where please?
I have as well, from Michael's. I buy the one WITH envelopes and use my coupon or buy on sale. However, they r a little smaller than the true A2 size and definitely thinner paper.
This isn't a hack but I like to keep one of my carts filled with the very basic card making supplies for a really organized and quick way to throw a card together. You can always add all the extras to your cards too!
+I'm A Cool Mom that sounds like a good hack to keep things organized and on hand for quick access! :)
I love my Teflon bone folder also and use is all the time. I haven't been here for awhile but will be back soon:-)
+Joyce Gandy awesome! :)
Hey Simon, good video but do you talk that fast or do you have the speed turned up?
I used to talk super fast... my new videos are a lot slower. :)
Where can I get a Teflon bone folder? Jo Ann Fabrics, Pat Catans, Hobby Lobby, and Michaels do not have them. Which mail order company is best?
Deb amazon!
I appreciate this answer too. I've never heard of Teflon bone folders before. Thanks for that hack.
I use hand sanitizer for my plastic
The Alcohol in your hand sanitizer can cloud the lid of your misty. That happened to mine and i had to replace it.
