Just a quick summary of the basic tools and supplies I used to complete my projects this week:
- Paper Trimmer (item 152392) - for trimming paper and cardstock - can also be used for scoring;
- stylus and scoreboard (Simply Scored Scoring Tool - item 122334) - for scoring card fold lines. For crisp card folds I also burnish all folded scored lines using my Bone Folder (item 102300). I also used the Bone Folder to add some curl to my die cut flowers and foliage;
- Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine (item 149653) - for all die cutting and embossing;
- Paper Snips Scissors (item 103579) - these small sharp scissors are very handy for trimming die cuts (i.e. snipping off a few leaves or shortening stems);
- Stampin' Brayer (item 162936) - although this silicone roller is intended for applying even ink coverage to embossing folders, stamps, and paper, it is also very effective for rolling over paper that has been glued to another surface - i.e. a wood panel. Rolling the Brayer over the paper immediately after gluing the paper to another surface (whether a wood panel or another piece of paper) helps ensure even coverage of the liquid adhesive and helps prevent air bubbles and buckling of the paper - effective adhesion requires a proper adhesive and pressure, and rolling the Brayer over the paper provides good even pressure;
- Take Your Pick Tool (item 144107) - the paper piercer, mini spatula, and tacky putty tips are a great help for picking up and placing small die cuts and embellishments; and
- for the main adhesive, Multipurpose Liquid Glue (item 110755). Although I do transfer glue to a small fine-tipped bottle that works great for applying glue to small items (delicate die cuts) the Multipurpose Liquid Glue bottle has dual tips and the broad chisel tip is great for applying glue to a larger surface such as a wood panel.
- for foliage: Soft Seafoam cardstock (item 146988), Lemon Lime Twist cardstock (item 144245), Old Olive cardstock (item 100702), and Mossy Meadow cardstock (item 133676) with Old Olive ink (item 147090) and Mossy Meadow ink (item 147111);

I used dollar store shimmer nail polish to add a little sparkle to main body and Vellum cardstock wings;
