Video Review: Ranger Ink New Embossing Powder Program
Hello Crafters! Today we are going to take a look at Ranger Ink‘s new embossing powder program via a video review! Ranger has had their AMAZING embossing powders on the market for as long as I can remember. One of the first Ranger products I ever bought was their Red Tinsel embossing powder when I was about 14 years old! (That was over fifteen years ago! Wow, how crafty time flies!) This last CHA, Ranger and Tim Holtz unveiled their […]

See it below to become familiar with the basics […]

New “Everyday Adventures” Project Life line from Stampin’ UP
Pocket Scrappers, rejoice! Now you can get your Project Life materials from Stampin’ Up with the new Everyday Adventure card collection, accessory pack, dies and more! There is a LOT of fun in this line- I made you a video to walk you through some of the goodies! Now… one thing I’ll say- I did NOT like the corner rounder. If you place your paper and punch from the top, it’s too easy to not align the corner correctly and […]

Mod Podge Photo Transfer Medium
I’m a mixed media artist, and I often use photo transfers in my work. I was excited to put “Mod Podge Photo Transfer medium” to the test. The first thing I noticed is that this medium is white in the bottle and dries white as well. My preferred products for mixed media photo transfer are initially white but dry clear, and allow me to layer to my heart’s content. I shifted gears when I realized that this product was […]
Glu6: The Glue That Saves The Planet
I’m putting Glu6 “The Glue that Saves the Planet” to the test. While Glu6 doesn’t have enough super powers to actually save the planet, it is an extremely effective non-toxic eco friendly glue. It’s made from recycled Styrofoam, and will be pushing several non-eco friendly glues right out the door of my studio. Zap! Bam! Just a little step closer to saving the planet. Here is a description from the website: “Glu6 is the only recycled glue in stores today, […]
DCWV Adhesive Fabric Stack
When I shared my favorite new items from CHA this past January, the DCWV Adhesive Fabric Stack was hands-down one of the products that I was most excited about. It’s time to dig in and see how it works! Now, this product is still so new that DCWV doesn’t have very much on it’s site yet about it. As it states: Try these with your personal die-cutting machines or paper-crafting machines to cut out intricate shapes. Our fabric paper is […]
Overview of Metals Foils, Flakes and Leafing
Today I’ve got an informational post for you. I’m going to answer three questions today- what are metal foils, metal flakes, and metal leafing? And how do I use them? And with what adhesives? Now the first thing I’m going to do is to ask you to watch this video I made you. It’s about 17 minutes long (I kn0w-GASP- super-long for a YouTube video) but I really wanted to show you each product and how it works: Now here […]
Whipped Spackle Texture Medium from Design Memory Craft
I love how art products are making their way into the crafting world. One such products are embossing pastes and gels (see my linked post about that here.) And lucky for us, companies like Faber Castell are actually improving them! Such is the case with Whipped Spackle Texture Medium from Design Memory Craft. On the website, it’s described simply, Create shaped dimensions and textured surfaces with Whipped Spackle, a versatile medium that will work on any surface. Feel like you’d […]

Remember how I shared some of the new/and or improved products of CHA show? Well, this is the first one I’ve gotten in my hot little hands- Gelatos Double Scoops! Look at ALL THE YUMMY COLORS.

So of course I had to play with them! (By […]
Jenny’s Picks from #CHAshow: Spellbinders Tool-in-One

Beacon Glitter-It!
Apparently I really have a thing for glitter. Seeing as how my first post on Craft Test Dummies was the Cosmo Cricket Glitter Sheets and I’m back today with a review of Beacon’s Glitter-It!, I think its safe to say that I’m beginning to be a pro at all things sparkle. The Glitter-It! product aims to make the process of glittering the inside of glass a piece of cake. This is what the Beacon site had to say about Glitter-It!: […]
