Hello everyone,
So I just discovered the MS branch craft punch and all the wonderful and creative things you can do with it. Some of the ladies here on SCS have created the most beautiful cards using that punch, and I literally just discovered it a few weeks ago!
Ughh... I feel like I'm the last on the bandwagon, here.
Are there any other "must haves" from Martha Stewart's collection?
I'm seriously eyeing the MS Scoring Board, even though I already own a Scor Pal, as I've read on some blogs that it produces crisper score lines than the Scor Pal. Also, the lines are closer together on the board, so it would seem that you have more options with it. Hmmm... with my 40% coupon from Michaels, that may turn into a must have - LOL!
Any other goodies from Martha Stewart that are worth owning?
edge and corner punches! I also like her score board.
I remember there was some hostility to her when she got into producing paper crafting tools b/c of some comment she had made about scrapbookers, but honestly, like her or not, she puts out some very good products IMO.
I absolutely love Martha Stewart's punches. I also love her glitter, her pens and I have her scoring board as well. I went with her scoring board because of the measurements and the envelope thing (which I haven't used and actually don't know where I put it.)
I also like Martha Stewart. I don't care what she said about scrapbookers or anything else. I think she's good at what she does and I like her.

Love the score board and I also have the scorepal, but use the MS one most of the time. Love her punches, glitter and a few of her acrylic stamps but not the new personalized one, it was just very cheaply made. The fact that I can use a coupon just sweetens the deal!

I love her flocking. It's richer and fluffier than any I've found.

I love her "course crystal glitters". These are so light and sparkly - they create the most magical effects on cards. I used the clear crystal one to accent the snow flake pattern on my Holiday cards last year. People kept commenting on how they looked like so magical.
Its a pretty big size too - 1.5 ounces. Also, the bronze on can pass as gold - a subdued gold that isn't so bright and shiny. I like that one too.
I love MS everything except I just bought the cutting-scoring board and have no idea how to score --it won't score--I tried watching the video and it says nothing about the scoring tool...Help??? I'm going to return it if I can't get any results from someone who has one....I was going to buy her circle cutter but spellbinders is going to come out with bigger grand dies so I'll have to see....
I found that the scoring tool jumped from the tracks, so I quickly replaced it with a stylus tool. I just keep it in the scoring too'l's compartment. I love the score board and use it on nearly every card I make! Keep trying, you'll find it to be very helpful.
Have the MS scoreboard and use it all the time. That envelope attachment that comes with it is pretty cool. I just finished making about 500 envelopes using that tool and it was really easy.
