15 Can’t Live Without Products for Card Making
There are so many products out there in the crafting world. It’s tough making choices when there are so many….so here are my 15 Can’t Live Without Products for Card Making. Why should you pay any attention to my list of products for card making? It hasn’t changed much over the years. I find the thing that works and don’t spend money on something else just because it’s new or the ‘in thing’. I may have replaced an item due to wear and tear but my 15 Can’t Live Without Products for Card Making are pretty stable. I’m not going to include pictures of all the products, just links. But I will include why I love that product instead of another product in some cases.

15 Can’t Live Without Products for Card Making
In no particular order…
- Teflon Bone Folder – It really does make great creases in the paper without leaving shiny spots or scratches.
- Jewel Picker – This one doesn’t leave goobers on your jewels and if the sticky goes away, just wipe it with a baby wipe and it’s as good as new.
- Self-Healing Cutting Mat – Mine is black. I’ve had other colors and brands but this one is by far my favorite.
- Nuvo Deluxe Liquid Adhesive – Inexpensive and dries quickly. It’s also very easy to get out of the bottle where other liquid adhesives require a death grip.
- Scrapbook.com Tape Runner – Easy to use. Best for the simple paper to paper applications.
- Zig 2 Way Glue Pen (Chisel Tip) – I’ve used these for YEARS! These are perfect to adhere die cut words together for stacking.
- MISTI – This is my most used tool in my craft room. It really is the most incredible stamping tool invented.
- Spellbinders Tool N One – This is a must-have if you die cut anything. It pokes and cleans! Great little tool.
- Clear Acrylic Blocks – Even though the MISTI can do it all sometimes you just need a good ol’ acrylic block.
- Neenah Solar White Card Bases
- Versamark Watermark Ink Pad
- Heat Tool
- The paper trimmer that I use has been discontinued so I highly recommend the Tonic Studios 8 1/2″ Trimmer and the 12″ Trimmer
- Tonic Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss
- My Favorite Things A2 Stitched Rectangle Set 1 and Set 2
