Years ago when my grandmother passed, she owned about 500 cassette tapes! And everyone of those tape were in holders that hung on the wall. I got those holders ( my family thought I had lost it) but I knew they would hold my ink pads....what awesomeness. You and I think a lot alike; I also use a nail polish holder for my ink blenders and I use an oven liner mat for my craft mat. I’m glad to see that I’m not the only one that sees crafty in everything! Thanks for this video; I got some new ideas for other stuff I had laying around. That magnet sheet is the best though.....die storage is my nemesis.
I always like to read other crafters comments cos one can learn from them too and sharing is caring as told to me via my 4 year old grand-munchkins. Thank you Kimberly Siddons for your ideas for storage too.
WOW...These are some of the BEST hacks I’ve heard yet. 💕 My favs are: 1. Covering a clipboard with a craft mat. 2. Scan and Cut your images BEFORE coloring them. BUT, I would put a little removable tape on the back of my cut image and then place it on a scrap paper that is bigger than the image. That way I can turn the image easily while coloring. (Feel free to share this idea) 3. Aligning shaker cards in the corner of the Misti. 4. Fill an empty Copic marker with Gamsol.
WOW what a great compliment; thank you so much! I really appreciate that. YAY! So happy they are helpful and YES that's a great tip about the tab to move it around.
Ooo...#2 is a REALLY GREAT idea!! I'm going to put an example of that in WITH my coloring "stuff" so I remember to do that! (I forget all these cool ideas UNTIL I've practiced their use several times.)
I've been enjoying your hacks. For a craft mat, one idea is a sheet protector. A piece of chipboard between two white sheets of paper. Thanks for taking the time to share.
This is truly one of the best videos that I have watched, and I have watched 100"s. I've book marked ALL of your videos and will definitely Subscribe to your channel. Thank you so very much for the time and effort that you have put in to making all of these. All the best in 2021.
Hi MaryThe easiest way to foil stamped images is with a glue like Tack it Over and Over. Sponge the glue onto the stamp, stamp it, allow to dry for a minute or two and foil. It will work even with the cheap foils (for nails etc) or any you find in craft shops. The glues are water based and will wash off, just have a bowl of water on the table. If you have a cutting machine that takes pens, a Sakura ball point glue pen works a treat and will give fine detail.If you happen to have leftover photo card, that makes nice backgrounds too. Pixabay is a great resource for images. Your scan n cut is great for making use of your scraps because you scan in your scrap and choose your cut out to fit it.
Mary, my friend, get an essential glue pad, ink your stamp with it, give it 30-60 seconds to get tacky, then put your foil on top and run it through your die cutter between two cutting plates works like a charm
I didn't realize this video was 4 years old. Thanks for leaving it posted. I learned a lot. I've started a book to write these "hacks" in so I can refer to them later to remind myself.
My pleasure; I also did that for you if you want to grab my excel sheet where I have been keeping all my hacks listed as well as alternative craft supplies. subscribepage.io/iJQDOU
Thank you for doing this hack video! Got some great ideas. Thank you for respecting my time and keeping content right on point! I will be watching more of your videos!
I'm so glad that you made this video..it is great. Also 1 tip hack would be PVC pipe for a faux wine rack...glued toghether. I just subscribed to your channel.
Merry Christmas, Mary. Your snowflake cards are wonderful. I appreciate your shaker card tips. I will be making 3 for my youngest grandgirls. I'm also very thankful you use the ink on your surface after blending. I can't believe how many UA-camrs waste that. The resultant backgrounds are a gift, each one different. 💖🇨🇦💖🥰Oops. Wrong comment. It's fine. You know what I'm talking about.
Thanks for putting together these tip videos. I'm binge watching them in preparation for moving to a place where I'll have lots more space to craft. So useful! 🙏🏻
I’ve been making shaker bags for yrs. I use my seal~a~meal bags (clear) & machine. I also use colored hair gel (blue) to simulate water. Think fish bowl. I cut from larger card stock so I have 3 panels. 1 panel folds under as to hide the bag. So it opens like a reg card but panel #1 folds over. I use either fun foam reg, fun foam thick or foam tape to tape the panel down & give it room to shake. Amy Jones Apex, NC
I loved all of these! I can't imagine how much time and effort this video took. Thank you. Truly for taking the time to do all the hard work for us. ❤️
Oh thank you so much and i really appreciate that you said this. It was well worth it to show all in one place and I'm happy it was helpful. Thank you for taking the time to let me know. :)
Mary, you are my hero. Love the hacks. One to share with you. I use a "used" circut mat , cut to fit my misti, for adhering cardstock without magnets. Have done this for sometime now. Works well. Thanks.
Love your tips and tricks for crafting, especially this video to help me save on my paper crafting supplies. Your presentation at the organization summit was #1 for me! Thank you for your wonderful videos. I am now a subscriber.
Such great tips, Mary. Yes, I did know some of them, but many I had either forgotten or didn’t really know. We moved 3 states this year and it is taking me 4Ever to get my craft space set up. This was invaluable for me. THANKS! ❣️🤗🥰
Just love all your tips and money savers. I am surely thankful for any money saving tip. Absolutely love the foil tips! I love the butterfly. Thank you so much for sharing all your great tips.
Mary, thank you for every single hack. Love all of them. Specifically, the no laminator hack. I don't own one and I find myself wanting to foil my cards.
Boy has crafting changed in the past 15 - 20 years!!! Ink pads were just ink pads and die cutting was something Martha Stewart was doing! I was into sewing, painting, and needle work. Some of this new stuff confuses me, and some of it is just so cool!! I am hoping to get my craft / sewing room in order soon and get back to crafting in 2022 or 2023. Blessings to you & keep crafting
Fantastic ideas. You really come up with some great substitutes, gotta do your clip board and empty marker pen! Looks like I need to hit the flea markets and rethink what I see there!! I am thinking a mechanics rack they hang with the little drawers for nuts and bolts for sequins and charms and stuff! Should have gotten this from my husband when he retired and auctioned off everything in the shop! His was clean too so that would have been great!
That's a great idea! That is the hope with a video like this; start seeing things differently so that we can save money. I get why so many items are priced the way they are for the crafting community and i try to support whenever i can.
Yet another fabulous video. I am rather proud of the way I've sorted my dies. They’re stored in cut down wine boxes (aren’t I classy!) that I then covered with book covering (contact). I was really surprised to discover though that the release paper left over makes a great surface for blending. So now i have a few large sheets of that, and some small ones from other covering projects, and i use them when i’m ink blending. They won’t have the longevity of the suggestion you have, but until i can get to a shop that stocks those heat mats (I live in a very small town) I think it will work well. Thanks Again for all the wonderful ideas.
Wait...so the boxes of wine you used for dies was from boxed wine or a box that had wine bottles in it? I need to know the level of classy we are discussing. I'm a boxed wine fan...throw it in the fridge and pull out the spout....that's my kind of classy! hahaha love it. Great idea for storage too; thanks so much for sharing!
@@marypolancodesigns bwahahah! I mean the boxed wine or, as my mother calls it, Chateau Cardboard! Just cut down the sides on an angle so the front is maybe one third to half the height of the back. I store my dies in envelopes because that way they're all the same size (and most of them are sent to me by my best friend in the Netherlands. She gets them from their equivalent of a dollar store and removes the packaging before posting them to me in Australia). It all works quite well.
Just found your channel yesterday. I rarely subscribe until I have watched most of your videos to make sure it’s a good fit for me! Thank you for being informative with out too much talking and silliness. Just the right mix with a touch of humor and humility. Subscribed!
WOW!!! I just discovered you, and you are just A-MAZING!!! I subscribed so I don't miss anything. I started taking notes, and I can't wait to go to Dollar Tree!!! Thank you so much.
Hi Mary. I found your videos a few wks ago and I’m so glad I did! I’ve been scrapbooking for many yrs so mostly make 12x12 layouts but your techniques carry over so well. This video of hacks is just awesome. One think I really appreciate is you taking time to create links to all the things you use in your videos. Thanks for sharing your creativity with all of us!
You are so welcome! It's my pleasure. I started following a few scrapbookers for ideas too because they do cross eachother. If you have any good recommendations let me know.
I love this idea thank you, we just happened to have a wine rack just taking up space so it's now sat on the top of the bookshelf keeping all the wrapping paper I save from year to year out of the way.
@@marypolancodesigns I'm also getting some stick on magnets for my dies which is the best idea and saves me rooting through endless packets to find the one that I need, and tell your Husband the desk is amazing!
I like the idea of taping down the images to color them. I bought a small turntable from Amazon and tape them to that. This way I can turn the image as needed. I love these videos so much! Off to Dollar Tree I go!
Hi Mary, I'm new to your channel. I discovered it by accident and I'm so glad I did! Your tips and hacks are amazing. The money saving tips are much appreciated. As this can be an expensive hobby I am thankful for any and all ways I can save. Can't wait to binge watch the rest of your videos!
Omg I've been point blank refusing to pay the extortionate price they charge for ink storage so the cassette holder idea is a bloody game changer! Some brilliant hacks here - love it! Thank you for another great video! Xxx
Yes, I wanted to do the same but couldn't get my hands on them- even tried Goodwill and thrift shops. I ended up succumbing to buying one of the expensive ones. Good luck on your search!
I'm just a little over half way through and had to stop to tell you you're a genius!!!!! Thank you so much, I'm going to use many of these tips!!! And thank you for linking to even the stamps you used for your tips! I just purchased that gorgeous HA winter scene :)
I've been binge watching organization videos for my new craft room in our new house! The ink pad storage tip is awesome! Still available and in my cart!! TYFS
I loved the embossing powder drawer idea! Right away I went looking for them in the Dollar Tree and found them. I felt greedy scarfing up six of them and have since copied your idea and love it. Thanks!.
sorry for another FYI, scrapbooking made simple makes heat resistant double-sided tape, non-stick non-slide craft mats, 100 pound cardstock, and their own beautiful stamps and dies, their tape is more expensive than scrapbook.com, but it's great stuff!
My goodness. This was by far one of the best craft hack videos I have ever watched. I absolutely love every idea. You hit a home run with this one Mary. Great job and thank you for it and also sharing the links. If I had to pick my top three they would be: the sealer cutter for making shaker bags (also a great way to use cellophane packaging), the clipboard with baking paper, the sticky paper or tape on the Misti. (But they were all pretty fabulous). Oh I have to add a 4th: using scraps to add dimension which you could also do with any die cut as well as fussy cutting. And I agree: the Dollar store is such a fun place for thinking outside the box when it comes to inexpensive ideas for storage. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😄👍🏼👍🏼. 10 thumbs up!
Wow, Annie, what an awesome, encouraging comment. I so appreciate you taking the time for me to let me know this was so helpful. YAY! I'm so happy! Thank you
Thanks for the great tips! One note - instead of using the low tack tape, you can actually buy Sizzix Sticky Grid Sheets for use in a stamp positioner. They have low tack adhesive on both sides, have a grid and are the perfect size for a standard Misti, but can easily be cut to size. Pack of 5 sells for about $5 but they last a very long time.
I’m doing more fine art now but also mixed media, but I still love just fun crafting and projects too. Great hacks& ideas! So funny I was going through some old crafting tools in a drawer and found one of those bag sealers. Now aIll use it!
New Subbie here, great ideas! I'm really enjoying your videos, thank you! Products we use in paper crafting can be expensive, these tips allow more "give" in the budget. Can't wait to see what else you come up with!
Just subscribed Mary. I love the way that you 'think outside the box'. I will have to try and find some of the items that you mentioned here in Australia. TFS

YAY! I knew i could rely on you for more great tips to share. You're the BEST! I have to try the tacky glue one for sure.
I have sakura glue pen, with that do you have to wait also before putting the foil?
Awesome idea I will have to purchase the tack it over and over I use clearance gems for nails often on cards
@@ArtsyMed Only a few minutes, you want it to dry till clear.
createinspain oki thank you!
Mary, my friend, get an essential glue pad, ink your stamp with it, give it 30-60 seconds to get tacky, then put your foil on top and run it through your die cutter between two cutting plates works like a charm

As an 80s teen I love the idea of cassette tape holders for my ink pads! Several fun ideas in this video thank you
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!

Fantastic ideas. You really come up with some great substitutes, gotta do your clip board and empty marker pen! Looks like I need to hit the flea markets and rethink what I see there!!

Awesome! Thank you! That's so great to know! YAY
I've been binge watching organization videos for my new craft room in our new house! The ink pad storage tip is awesome! Still available and in my cart!! TYFS
That is awesome! I think you'll love it
I loved the embossing powder drawer idea! Right away I went looking for them in the Dollar Tree and found them. I felt greedy scarfing up six of them and have since copied your idea and love it. Thanks!.
Don't you feel guilty...get em! Lol. Thanks
@@marypolancodesigns Well, I did leave 2 for others...so far. 😁
Holy smokers! This was so helpful! Tfs
Glad it was helpful! YAY!
Thanks for all the great tips!
You are so welcome! My pleasure
I liked your video, Mary❣️
Thank you so much! I'm so glad!
I have watched lots of videos on craft tips and hacks it I still learnt some new ones from you. Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you! YAY love to hear that!
sorry for another FYI, scrapbooking made simple makes heat resistant double-sided tape, non-stick non-slide craft mats, 100 pound cardstock, and their own beautiful stamps and dies, their tape is more expensive than scrapbook.com, but it's great stuff!
Awesome thank you!
Great hacks, well presented - thank you!
Glad you like them! I had fun putting this together!
Fabulous!!! Thank you!!!
You are so welcome!
Very useful video. Thanks for sharing!
Oh I'm so glad this was helpful! Thank you so much for letting me know!
My goodness. This was by far one of the best craft hack videos I have ever watched. I absolutely love every idea. You hit a home run with this one Mary. Great job and thank you for it and also sharing the links. If I had to pick my top three they would be: the sealer cutter for making shaker bags (also a great way to use cellophane packaging), the clipboard with baking paper, the sticky paper or tape on the Misti. (But they were all pretty fabulous). Oh I have to add a 4th: using scraps to add dimension which you could also do with any die cut as well as fussy cutting. And I agree: the Dollar store is such a fun place for thinking outside the box when it comes to inexpensive ideas for storage. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😄👍🏼👍🏼. 10 thumbs up!
Wow, Annie, what an awesome, encouraging comment. I so appreciate you taking the time for me to let me know this was so helpful. YAY! I'm so happy! Thank you
Thanks for the great tips! One note - instead of using the low tack tape, you can actually buy Sizzix Sticky Grid Sheets for use in a stamp positioner. They have low tack adhesive on both sides, have a grid and are the perfect size for a standard Misti, but can easily be cut to size. Pack of 5 sells for about $5 but they last a very long time.
Great tip! Thank you so very much! I have seen those and just didn't get around to trying them yet.

I’m doing more fine art now but also mixed media, but I still love just fun crafting and projects too. Great hacks& ideas! So funny I was going through some old crafting tools in a drawer and found one of those bag sealers. Now aIll use it!
Awesome! Thank you! YAY for finding things. hahaha i love it. It's such a great way to do it
New Subbie here, great ideas! I'm really enjoying your videos, thank you! Products we use in paper crafting can be expensive, these tips allow more "give" in the budget. Can't wait to see what else you come up with!
Thanks for joining me! YAY! And yes so expensive at times. I have done a few of these videos if you check out my playlist on them

Just subscribed Mary. I love the way that you 'think outside the box'. I will have to try and find some of the items that you mentioned here in Australia. TFS
