Starting a new hobby can be a daunting and very expensive experience. \u00a0When first starting the hobby of card making you do not need to purchase everything at once. \u00a0Face the facts you will not use everything at once. \u00a0So there are a few things you need to get started in card making or paper crafting. \u00a0Ready! Here’s your supply list.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. \u00a0Trimmer<\/a>: Unless you are a confident cutter and are able to cut a straight line with scissors and don’t mind the messy fold, then I strongly suggest you purchase a trimmer. \u00a0Trimmers help make a stable, straight cut and it allows you to score your paper so it is easy to fold.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Ink Pads: Investing in good quality ink can last you about 6-10 years. \u00a0I’ve purchased my Stampin’ Up ink pads back in 2010 and I am beginning to refill them now. \u00a0The quality of ink leaves the image clean and crisp as if it came from a printer. I would suggest getting basic black (140931)<\/a> and the 5 In Colors<\/a>. The basic black ink pad would come to around $9.25 and the In-colors package which comes to\u00a0$7.00 each.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Paper: \u00a0As I mentioned in the last post, I only use Stampin’ Up materials. \u00a0One reason is the quality of the paper \u00a0surpasses what I nomally buy at Michaels and the dollar store. \u00a0I find the paper at Stampin’ Up is thicker and brighter in color. \u00a0Anyway going back, I would suggest the Whisper White card stock (100730)<\/a>. \u00a0There is 40 sheets for $11.25. \u00a0You can make 80 cards with it. \u00a0I would also recommend a package of In-Colors variety pack card stock<\/a>. \u00a0It would be $10.00 for 20 sheets, which could make anywhere from 40-80 cards. Depending what you are using it for.<\/p>\n

4. \u00a0Clear Block: \u00a0I personally like to use clear stamps. \u00a0One I can see if I’m stamping the image in the right spot. \u00a0Two, it takes up less space on my shelf, and three, I’m not spending more money on the wood blocks. \u00a0For now I would only suggest getting block D (118485)<\/a>. \u00a0I tend to use this one for almost all my stamps. \u00a0Block D goes for $11.25.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. \u00a0Stamps: I normally suggest 2 universal stamp sets to start with. \u00a0One with images that you can use for all occasions and one with sentiments for all occasions. \u00a0In this case I would suggest Balloon Celebration (140675)<\/a> for $32.00 and Better Together (141736) <\/a>for $48.00.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

6. \u00a0Stamp Cleaner: When you begin stamping you want to keep your materials clean so that you don’t get multiple colors of an image. \u00a0The stampin’ scrub (126200)\u00a0<\/a>is good to get between your stamp to ensure it is thoroughly clean. \u00a0However, without the solution the stampin’ scrub will not clean your stamp so I suggest the 2 fl. oz. bottle (102394) <\/a>for $6.00<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7. Adhesive: \u00a0Once you complete your first card image you need to glue it to the card base. \u00a0So I recommend tear and tape adhesive (138995)<\/a>. \u00a0It’s 27 yards of double sided tape that can last you a long time. \u00a0The other adhesive I suggest is Dimensionals (104430)<\/a>. \u00a0These are good to add extra lift on your card. \u00a0It comes in a package of 300 pieces so they last a while as well.<\/p>\n

Starting a hobby can be costly. \u00a0Just adding all the items on this list gives you a total of over $200. Now, how about I make your day by telling you 3 ways in how you can get this list for about a fraction of the price or even free.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Host a Party<\/a>: \u00a0I know what you are thinking “I hate having to convince my friends to come to a sales pitch.” \u00a0Well you are not. \u00a0They are coming to a FREE, FUN girls night out. \u00a0Similar to the paint lounge events. You spend girl time with your BFF’s, and create projects. \u00a0I provide all the materials needed and I teach your friends how easy it is to create beautiful projects and they do not need to be creative at all. \u00a0The products speak for themselves as I show you how to use different tips and tricks to create amazing projects. \u00a0In the end, your friends purchase products (and not because I forced them, but because they fell in love while using them) and you get to choose FREE products based on the sales.<\/li>\n
