Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine tips

When using your machine for die cut and embossing you should be rotating and flipping your plates to stop the bowing that happens from constant use. You make still get some bowing of the plates.

See how dirty my plates are? I decided that I needed to clean them. To clean them all you need is some dish soap and a old toothbrush. Run your plate under hot water add a squirt of dish soap, and scrub with toothbrush to you get it clean. My were so bad that this took me a bit, now they look like new except for all the scratches.

When I was done cleaning them, I saw that they were still had a little bowing. I ran my hot water, mine gets pretty hot. Then ran my plate under it a bit once i figured it was warm enough, I used the middle bar between my sinks and slowly bend them the other way. This helped straighten them out some more. If your plates are as old as mine you don’t want to apply a lot of pressure quickly, it’s better to go slowly

nice and clean now
still slightly bowed but better then in first picture

This plate is about 18 years old, when I started with the big shot I didn’t about cleaning the plates, once I learned how I started cleaning it. you can still see the difference in the dirty and clean

In The Moment Curtain techinque

In The Moment stamp set is one that you need to /should color. I found out using this stamp set that sitting down and coloring is still enjoyable and it helped me to relax after a busy day. I love how the light and dark Stampin’ Blends help me to give more texture to my image. I used

I also went back in time and did a technique that I haven’t done in a long time. I forgot how much I love this curtain technique. It suits the images for this stamp set.

Stampin’ Blends

This is not my picture, I was looking for a way to label my Stampin Blends and came across this. I though I would share it with you all

Tips for keeping your Stampin’ Blends stored safely and organized.

I was looking for a way that I could see my Stampin’ Blends color without pulling everyone out of the storage holder, so pinterest to the rescue. I saw this picture and thought I can do this. I think it is going to be time consuming, but in the long run it will save me time looking for the color I want. Also it will save the frustration of guessing what color is this one or that one as so manu colors look a like on the Stampin’ Blends caps

I am working on making the labels as we speak, I think I might go one step further and color each label, so it’s easier to see the true color of the Stampin’ Blend. I will attach the labels with a mini glue dot. I am hoping my retired 3/8 circle punch is the right size, to punch them out.

Stampin’ Blends Storage

There’s many ways to store your Stampin’ Blends as long as the horizontal. I am using the Stampin’ Up Blends Storage, I find it a lot easier then just throwing them into a bin or drawer. The great thing about these storage system is you can stack them as tall as you want, pair them up with other Stampin’ Up storage solutions. I have just recently started to get the pad and marker holders as well.

I have decided to organize my blends in color families as it is in the Stampin’ Up catalogue, with my ink pad and marker. again it is your choice on how you would like them organize. Maybe your prefer like color tones grouped together.

As in my picture, my new storage area, I am finding it as an easy solution to store all my Stampin’ pads, markers and Stampin’ Blends.

Each of the Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays stores 6 Stampin’ Blends markers.  They come in s set of 5. You do have the choice of getting a topper lid or a topper storage. I went with the storage to have my ink refills with my color families.

* 5 white plastic craft storage trays (total of 30 blends
* Silicone feet keep trays from slipping
* Size 5″ x 5″ x 7/8″
* Lids sold separately Check out them out here

Did I say this was time consuming, it may be. In the end I think I am going to love it. After a little more searching I have found that Stamp with Sarah has a free down load for the labels. This just saved me some time. If you would like to get them just click on the above labels and it will take you right to them.
