- Todays haul and unboxing video is a long one, folks, so grab your favorite beverage and snack and snuggle in for a long one....or put me on fast forward :)
I addressed some of my concerns with getting this system and why I finally pulled the trigger and got it.
My concerns were the inks as I didn't want to have to buy a whole new ink line for one system. Another was the cost of the paper and the plates themselves. Letter press paper is pricey, and I wanted to see if I could not only find a cheaper alternative to letterpress paper but also use the cardstock I use for everything else and get a similar result. The press plates had a similar concern as the inks. I didn't want plates that I could only use for one system. I was also concerned with the price of the system as well. Plus, everyone showed it being so perfect with amazing results right out of the box with no learning curve, and I was convinced that I would somehow be the exception to the rule.
All of my concerns were addressed in this video, and it really is as easy as everyone claimed and showed. AMAZING!!!

I know this was a long one, and so I extra appreciate you spending time with me. I hope if youve had some of the same hesitations I did with this system you will finally feel confident enough to go ahead and add this system to your crafty stash knowing you can use products you already have and get phenomenal results. I really enjoyed playing and experimenting and was super surprised to know that pretty much everything worked even for me. Regardless of whether you have this BetterPress system or not, I hope you felt inspired to create and send a paper hug to someone today.
