Favorite Crafty Things of 2024

 It's time for a little end-of-the-year crafty review! In theory, I should have absolutely NOTHING new to report, as 2024 was supposed to be my Year of Plenty. I tried hard to curb crafty spending this year, but sometimes, I caved. I'm a sucker for sales!


Anyhoo, here are a few finds that I really loved this year.



I buy the BIG jar of Nuvo glue now. I use it all the time! I still use tape runner, too, but glue gives a little more wiggle room and better adhesion for so many things. 


The magnetic magic mat from Scrapbook.com is great. No need to tape down the dies anymore.




The Creative Cuts Banner dies from Mama Elephant were my Go To's when a card needed a little sentiment. I think I first saw these in use by Amy Tsuruta, and I fell in love. I now have Winter, Spring, and the original banner greetings. Love them!


I love daffodils, and this stamp set from Catherine Pooler was so easy to use.


It was so easy to create stunning Christmas cards with these dies from Concord and 9th!

I also loved using their cover plate dies. They had such a great inventory blowout sale this summer, and I stocked up on some great deals.


I use these deckle frame dies from Hello Bluebird a lot.

This pack of metallic card stock really came in handy during holiday crafting season.

I also enjoyed using a lot of embossing folders. This new one from Penny Black will get used soon for winter creations.

There you have it...a few of my favorite things! Did you have a favorite thing that got used a lot this year?

  1. Mint tape! It’s sold by Scrapbook.com and it keeps my dies in place (I don’t have a Magic Mat). I can’t wait to see your winter cards. So many move on to spring but winter has just started! And I love this season!
