Today I’d like to share with you some products that make your life easier, or more fun. Some are brand new, some are old stand bys, but I love them all.
First are Cardlets.
Cardlets are fabulous little books that contain 44 detachable cards. Just select the one you want, detach at the perforation, fold in half, write your message and you’re set! At less than $6.00 for 44 cards, it makes sense to have a pack of each. The assortments are Everyday, Special Occasion, Birthday, and Kids Cards.http://www.cqproducts.com/search_result_listing.php
The Ultimate ToolBox™ from ScrapOnizer is a set of clear cases to easily store your supplies, but still be able to see them.
These clear containers are made from a durable, lightweight poly vinyl material that is also acid free. I love that fact that the insets are removable which allows me to customize the set for whatever I need. Use the included self-adhesive labels or design your own. The storage box which holds 4 toolboxes is perfect to decorate and can become a project in itself! Having beautiful, functional storage has helped me find my papercrafting tools!http://www.scraponizer.com/how-it-works.html
Cutter Glide™ tool treatment enables me to punch thru thicker papers and cardstock with much less effort. For anyone with arthritis, or anyone making multiples of a design, this is a lifesaver. The product comes in a small bottle with the applicator brush attached to the lid – think nail polish. You simply brush it on the cutting surfaces of your punches or scissors, and voila! Now I can use all my punches again!
Paper Glide™ is a spray that allows your embossing tools to glide easily over the substrate you are using. A quick spray permanently treats your paper to facilitate embossing and insures crisp, clean folds.
If your tools have become dirty and /or sticky, E-Z Tool Cleaner ™ lets you clean them up with an environmentally friendly liquid. Check these products out here:

Last but definitely not least is my Mighty Bright®
I use this wonderful light many times a day. I love that it is so small, but mighty! It takes very little room on my studio table, but provides great light as well as magnification whenever I need it. I can clip it onto my easel, book clipboard, etc, or simply stand it where I need it. The goosneck on both the light and the magnifying lens allow me to position both wherever I need them. I also have the cradle base attachment, which contains a very strong magnet, giving me even more options.http://www.mightybright.com/Craft_Lights/CategoryProductList.html
So, try some or all of these products out, and make your papercrafting even more enjoyable!
