Just an old gal, raising and home schooling two of my grandchildren. Slowly finding time to get back into crafting. Using Maker 3 and Explore 3 and loving sublimation and resin crafting.

Hello my Krazies!
I know it's been a LONG time since I posted and for that I'm sorry. I promise to try and do better. I've had the last 2 days off and I have played NON STOP in my craft room. Oh the fun I had! I practiced with stamping, pro markers and my Teresa Collins Stamp maker. I didn't make anything worthy of showing you but I do have 2 videos to share. One is showing you a few new things such as my coozies and my Clip it up system which cost WAY less then the actual clip it up system.
In the above video I showed you a lil sneak peak at my Stamp Maker - in this video I show you what I made and how I made it. There are a few photos to go with it but I need to get them off my cell phone and uploaded here - so please check back in the next few hours so you can see the video's and photos.
Stamps, Stencils and Embossing all with one machine - pretty nifty stuff!
Ok, so as you can see I did a stamp, a stencil and an embossing plate. Click on the photo to enlarge. I think my rubber stamps will get better with practice, I'm not much of a stencil fan so I probably will never make another one and the embossing plate is a great idea if I ever need a small embossed image. However the embossing plate was very difficult to use in my cuttlebug. I had to actually lay it on top of an embossing folder and then between the spacers. Maybe I should get one of those thin spacers. Anyway it did work as you can see. All 3 of these took just minutes to do. Give it a try and let me know how yours turn out!
I can't wait to try to make stamps. Have you tried making any font stamps? I would get the whole stamp kit JUST to be able to make fonts! I'm assuming that they're photopolymer because of the light?
I want to do name stamps but haven't had a chance to try it out. Software comes with the stamp maker for doing your own artwork, maybe I'll check it out later. Wouldn't that be fun?
OMG! Thank you for showing this to us. I haven't gotten it because I thought it was way more complicated than this. Hmmm...may have to get one now:) You did a GREAT job showing us:)
