Love your cards!

[@melaniestamps]

Thank you sweetheart! Hope you enjoy that gift card!!!!!!

[@elizabethstaub4764]

Wish that there was a place to donate including die cutting machines, and other higher priced supplies ! I could fill boxes full of excellent craft stuff. Save me from myself !

[@melaniestamps]

Oh Girl I feel your pain! I am wanting to build a studio and have thought about starting to sell the items I am not using to help pay for it but where to begin??? It is daunting. For now I am focusing on dividing and conquering and using more of it to actually see what I want to keep.

[@rosegriffin8001]

I have so many supplies that I have not used yet,but love and plan to. I just love it all but buy faster than the time I can play!!!

[@melaniestamps]

I keep telling hubby we need 36 hours in each day! !

[@sandrashaw8343]

I have so much stuff in my stash I'm ashamed. I wouldn't mind, but I have purged a lot too. It's not good. These are lovely Melanie, I love the shimmer and shine. X

[@melaniestamps]

Honey purging is HARD for me. I can separate it to purge but then I don't get rid of it. I have SO MUCH STUFF that has got to go!!!!!!

[@sandrashaw8343]

@@melaniestamps it is difficult as we work hard for the things we buy. Xxx

[@sew1more]

I'm a newbie but of course EVERY die etc I've seen I WANT/NEED and yes- i have tons I haven't had the courage to use yet! Love the backgrounds and the Better Press

[@melaniestamps]

Tonight on the LDRS Creative LIVE they mentioned they are going to look into possibly manufacturing 5x7" background plates because I recommended them. I told them during the live how many people were asking for 5x7" products for their BP! YAY!!!! Then we can make both size cards both in Glimmer and BP with one product AND get the 15% discount with my code!!!! WIN WIN WIN!!!!!!!

[@melaniestamps]

Also @sue1more I love newbies and am always here to help you so make sure to join my personal facebook group Heartfelt Card Making with Spellbinders and More if you haven't already. I am always around to answer questions, and no question is too small.

[@rosegriffin8001]

I love Nancy Stamps trick where she cuts a sizzix repositioned sheet to A2 sz instead of tape to hold cardstock in place for Betterpress. It works great!!! You can cut to any size. You can use it multiple times before you have to change it.

[@melaniestamps]

Yes her trick is awesome!!!! I just do so much pressing It would cost me, personally, a fortune to keep stock in the Sizzix sheets because I would have to change it so much. LOL

[@kimgwinn5391]

I have lots of supplies. I wish there was a group we could share dies and stamps so we could try them all😂

[@melaniestamps]

There probably is, though I have not heard of one. With the price of postage now a days I wonder if people would participate. It is getting crazier by the day. If you lived near me though I could let you use just about anything..... 🤣

[@kathrynfrantz7091]

I do have the sparkle pens too! Anxious to try this messy technique!

[@melaniestamps]

YAY! I knew someone would have them.....Think of all the inky possibilities! I will be doing it again for sure.

[@kathrynfrantz7091]

My red pen leaked, although I couldn’t see from where.😂. Haven’t pressed it yet. Was watercolor card scrap so odd size. Will soon

[@sharmandeluca1082]

Both are beautiful sweetie...

[@melaniestamps]

Thank you love!

[@carriegiletto9662]

Hi Melanie!! I bought the BettePress!! I am counting on you to teach me the ropes

[@melaniestamps]

You got it girlfriend! Make sure to join the BetterPress Babes Facebook Group along with my Personal Facebook Group Heartfelt Card Making with Spellbinders and More.

[@gacricutgirl]

Absolutely too much stuff. I opened a new "old" jar of texture medium and it was pretty well dried up. Time to go through all my jars. Love how everyone is using their stash!

[@melaniestamps]

OH Girl, I just had the same thing happen with old bottles of GLUE! It was the cheaper tacky glue. I went to get some when I ran out of the little tube that comes with the Stamp n Storage Carousel Stamp Pad units and I had 2 big bottles from long ago and nothing would come out. So I took off the lid and squeezed and out came one HUGE BIG MARSHMALLOW looking blob! It was hilarious. Both of those glue bottles went in the trash. That is what told me I needed to do something!!!! 🤣

[@sandraunrath2148]

Melanie I also have a stash of products that I need to use before getting more product

[@melaniestamps]

I never said I was going to use them before getting more....🤣🤣🤣 But use them nonetheless :-) Ha Ha Ha! Have a great weekend!

[@sheilaj6713]

Yes, Yes I have so much stuff and have moved a lot of product into the storage room next to the craft area. Where I live there is not any way to donate.

[@melaniestamps]

I cannot replay or I may incriminate myself..... LOL!!!!!!! Let me just say I FEEL YOUR PAIN! Love ya girl!
