I haven't checked in for a few days so this is a catchup. I had to answer the question "what tool could I not do without". It's the world's thinnest stanley knife. Super lightweight plastic from a two dollar shop but it's been my constant cardmaking companion for twenty years. It's perfect for all the fidgety foil stickers and wording, for pulling away the backing from two-sided tape, making holes for split pins and using it to position pre-taped pieces into place. I use it for everything. Todya I braved getting out all my cardmaking stuff, only to find heaps of stuff I don't even remember buying. It was a bit like Christmas. :) I made a couple of cards but didn't feel they were very good. I didn't have much inspiration, it was more just a desire to get it all out. Not the lounge room is filled with big boxes and two fold out tables. There's two more boxes but these had the stuff I was most likely to use. What a mess!
