Watch This Before Buying Up a Bunch of Tools!

[@brandirubio1687]

Omg!! I wanted this before I watched your video, and now I'm even more excited to get one simply for the cutting die that cuts the holes to align my stencils in various sizes! I think I'm more excited about this tool than I've ever been about a crafty tool (and I own a lot of them), it almost compares to the excitement of buying a sex toy lmao! I know I'm not alone, maybe the first to admit it, but everyone in our crafty community knows what I mean❤! Thank you for showing us all the details and features because I wasn't sure i wanted to spend the $ right now and your video just pushed me over that ledge lol. 😅 Lisa Horton Crafts should definitely be thanking you in a huge way for your promotion and excitement too!!

[@marypolancodesigns]

It's a great tool! I hope you love it!

[@susan710734]

I have one of these tools already. Thank you for the explanation of how it works because I never knew how to do Layering Stencils. As always, I enjoyed your video, Mary. 🥰🥰

[@marypolancodesigns]

Glad it was helpful! YAY!

[@purplemav]

I’m not big on stenciling myself…..but I like when companies make their tools to “play well” with items a crafter already has. It’s says a lot about their customer service and integrity.

[@marypolancodesigns]

Same, I agree with this. It's so helpful

[@KimberlyLetsGo]

They should have sponsored you!!! LOL You did a fantastic job of explaining it and with your demo. :D

[@marypolancodesigns]

Thanks so much! That's great feedback!

[@debbieduran6791]

Wow, those butterfly stencils are Gorgeous!

[@marypolancodesigns]

They are! SO so pretty! I might do the big one just isolated on a card; that would be awesome!

[@mkmousej6745]

It's about time someone came up with a pin system for stencils. I have suggested this to stencil companies but no one has jumped on the suggestion. It would be awesome if this layout became a standard and stencil makers started adding these holes to future stencils.

[@marypolancodesigns]

It's such a great idea to help us stencil more efficiently!

[@candiwelsh5524]

I love your channel Mary. You sweet and kind and very fun. The tips and tricks are so very helpful and I really appreciate your honesty. GOD bless you my dear👍❤️

[@marypolancodesigns]

Oh thank you so very much for this, you're so kind! I appreciate you

[@michelegourd5742]

Mary, I just order this!! I can not wait for it!! This was very helpful!!

[@marypolancodesigns]

Yay, I hope you love it!

[@Love2Create62]

Fantastic for a person just starting out! Saves on room and the necessity to have multiple tools! The stencil holder in itself is cool! I really appreciate all of your helpful reviews! 😊

[@marypolancodesigns]

Right, I really think it's so great for someone just getting started, knocks out so many in one.

[@kirriesummers5219]

Thank you, Mary for testing and recommending this tool and at the same time honestly saying if we have all the tools singly, it is not a necessity. I love all your cards and hacks but what I appreciate most is your integrity. Trust is paramount when being given recommendations and integrity is a requirement toward trust. 💖🇨🇦🥰

[@marypolancodesigns]

That means a lot to me, thank you for this. It's really important for me to remind us that so much of these things aren't things we NEED in order to create; we can create with none of it. :)

[@suklinkner8684]

Great tool but like you mentioned many of us have most of those same tools.

[@marypolancodesigns]

Yes indeed...wanted to make sure to mention that. It's not earthshattering, its just a great tool for those starting out.

[@chaselip]

Great review Mary!! Thank you💜💜💜

[@marypolancodesigns]

Thanks Mary. Always appreciate your reviews and the options for crafters of different stages (starting out or long time crafters). 💕💕💕

[@marypolancodesigns]

OH thank you so very much! I appreciate that!

[@veecee9536]

Mary, many thanks for your enthusiastic and honest review of this product. Can see many pros and cons but one positive i can see for the stencil holder.........anyone who may have problems controlling shakiness of their hands, would find that holder really, really helpful. Enjoy all your videos, even when I'm catching up with old ones. They are helpful, fun and often educational in many ways. Thanks for all your hard work. Regards from UK 🇬🇧

[@marypolancodesigns]

That's a very good point; thank you for bringing that up! Appreciate this!

[@craftingwithpaula]

Thanks for taking the time to show us this tool. The reason for me not to get it is because I use 12x12 in papers a lot for making paper boxes and it looks like the scoring board doesn’t fit one. It’s definitely better for card making. In any case, I appreciate that you took the time to show it.

[@marypolancodesigns]

My pleasure thanks so much for sharing this

[@katepape3565]

With working area of 9.5 x 10.5 inches, regular cardstock wouldn't fit either.

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

Thanks so much for sharing this multi tool, I was looking into it & came across your wonderful video! Sending blessings and hugs!!!

[@marypolancodesigns]

Oh YAY that makes me so happy; thanks for letting me know.

[@verafernandes4913]

Hello Mary, not to be so casual, I’ve been tuning in to your channel for over a year now and enjoy them all as well as your though out commentary, I’ve actually purchased a few of the products you’ve demonstrated which were true to form, love the opaque card stock. However, this product is not a favorite, the size is very small, i have the original Martha Stewart scorer and it can accommodate a 12”x12” sheet of card stock with space around. Though this did not inspire me I’m still looking forward to what you discover next, i have my notification on and continue to subscribe. Thank you for taking time to show us all your discoveries and how they function, i appreciate you.

[@marypolancodesigns]

Hi! So glad you're here and please know I always welcome others' opinions on the channel. We all have such different outlooks on what works for us. Yes the 12x12 is a great tool if you score a lot. Thanks so much for the encouragement!

Same; I'm sure I could have used a hole punch too but this really was cool that it came with it.

That's fab for those who don't have separates already. I've never heard of Lisa Horton..thanks for the review Mary.

I have all the separate components of this tool, but I purchased it for taking on crafty retreats, to save space. I hope the inaccuracy of the score board doesn't turn out to be too much of a problem. Thank you for you review.

[@marypolancodesigns]

I hope so too! Thanks so much!

[@arashy]

Love your enthusiasm! I have too many tools (wait, that can’t be right). 😆 This one looks pretty cool for new crafters. The We R Memory Keepers All in One tool, which used to be MUCH cheaper than its current price, is another I-wish-I-didn’t-already-own-most-of-these-tools tool.

If it came with an acrylic lid that fits on the pegs where the stencils go u can use it for stamping too

[@marypolancodesigns]

Very very true! That might be 3.0...lol we'll have to wait and see.

[@jesseb5112]

Yelena, I think if it had that, they might have an issue with Sizzix. I'm not sure which tool came out first. This looks neat, but I have separate tools.

[@kathymarine1164]

I bought this last week and can't wait for it to arrive... I am doing scrapbooking and not making cards(although I guess I could) and I am hoping to do a lot of stencilling and stamping, and using colored pencils.

Fabulous review - as always! 🙂

[@marypolancodesigns]

[@marykatherine9098]

Lovely video. Just thought you would like to know about the ULTI-MATE MULTI TOOL. THE FIRST EDITION. The first edition has a stamp positioner in it . The ruler is only has 2 sides and the is a strong hinge clear lid for the stamp positioner part of the tool and it came with a small stencil brush and 2 long and skinny strong magnets and a magnetic base. The backside of this tool has foam bottom stops it from skidding. Kinda like the foam shelf liners but solid. It has the same silicone mat and the same holes for the stencil to go in. I am not sure why they took away the stamp positioner and changed it to a scoring tool on the back side. Have no idea why they did that. Have a wonderful day.

[@marypolancodesigns]

Oooh that sounds like a great tool as well! Nice! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@kiminalaska9363]

I really like my Ultimate 2

[@marypolancodesigns]

It really is a great product!

[@bethbenson1931]

Good review, Mary! It seems like having the stencil locked in place, it would make it hard to place the stencil where you want it on the card. Like, what if you wanted the left butterfly on the stencil in the center of the card? How would that work? Don't want to sound negative, but it seems very limiting. Extra holes on a stencil might be a problem too.

[@marypolancodesigns]

Great way to look at it' I hadn't thought of those things. Absolutely encourage this, so folks can see if it's something that will work for them. The concept of the stencils that coordinate with the tool are incredible (the layering stencils). I't's like a pop on and blend but could be problematic if I wanted to move it around, yes.

[@lindacade3975]

Interesting tool...what would be helpful for newbies or crafters without a die cutting machine, would be to have a punch included to make the holes in the stencil.

[@marypolancodesigns]

Oooh great point i love that!

[@ayapomstra3283]

Nice handy product, added die is great. The only down site for me is the size of the scoring board, why not make it 12” . This is a dealbreaker for me.

[@marypolancodesigns]

Yes, that's a downside for a few folks.

[@brendaschindler1169]

This is amazing

[@marypolancodesigns]

[@athenamay30]

This would have been perfect if there’s a magnetized stamping cover like the Crafters Companion stamping platform.

OOOOH Yes indeed, great point.

[@maryjones107]

Thank you

[@marypolancodesigns]

My pleasure!

[@barbarahill6365]

Can you alcohol blend, without staining?

[@marypolancodesigns]

On the silicone mat, not likely. On the plastic portion, it's possible if you use alcohol to then remove it since it's a non-porous surface. But I'm not going to use it for that so I can't test it for you. :)
