MORE Favorite Crafty Products !!

This page is a continuation of my first "My Favorite Crafty Products" Page, which can be seen HERE !! There are just soooo many things that I love !!  

Well, we'll get right to it!! 

Back to PAPER !! I have searched High and Low for a good heavyweight white card stock for my Card Bases. Well, I finally found it !! Here is a picture of it and the price I pay at Walmart !! 


110lb Georgia Pacific Premium Card Stock Paper for $5.48 @ Walmart
This is my absolute favorite WHITE paper out there !! It is sooo smooth and cuts sooo well on the Cricut Explore. It's just amazing !! 


               My Favorite Cutting Machine Blades!!
When the Cricut Explore first came out, they came with the most amazing German Carbide Steel blade that just went for days !! (Literally, over a month and a half for me!! Longer for others !!) But they hadn't released these blades for purchase yet. So we all (in the Cricut community) were all looking for an equal alternative, and Roland Blades were the most popular go-to. However, the first set I ordered, were from an e-bay dealer, and they were counterfeit. They didn't even last me a week each. But I found this amazing company called Bridge Cutters that sells through Amazon.com and had the REAL DEAL blades !! I LOVE my Roland blades. And the prices are AMAZING !! But only buy them if they come in a case that looks like this: 
This is a package of 6 45 degree blades for regular cutting.
Now I want to answer the most common question I get is: What degree blade do I get? Well there is a lot of misinformation out there, but I got my information straight from BridgeCutters.com and USCutters.com, so here it is: 
For a regular, everyday cutting blade you want a 45 degree blade. 
For a thick material blade, you want the 60 degree blade for deep cutting.

Now onto my NEW favorite product, BLENDING CHALKS !!! I went to Michael's upon the recommendation of a friend from my Facebook group, Cricut Explore Lovers Helping Each Other, and found some good quality, soft, amazing blending chalks to starts adding dimension, distressing, and coloring. The kind I got that I just LOVE are by Inkadinkado. I will have more information on them as I am able to play with them more!! These were regularly $12.99, but I had a 40% off coupon, so it only ended up totaling $7.79 !!! A friend of mine from my group (the same one who recommended using blending chalks) is sending me a tool to use with these chalks and some pom-poms, when I receive those, I will post information on how they are best used !! Stay tuned.... !!!
