I have a ton of Distress inks in a giant shoe box. I'm glad I can turn them right-side up again I went on a mini-ink buying spree so I might as well get a couple tins for them. I didn't know about the Ranger ink refresher so I'll give that a shot before I invest in re-inkers. I haven't tried alcohol inks yet but I also have a lot of pigment inks and embossing powders. Good thing I found my heat gun

The Bira die and embossing machine is just like the other small manual ones out there like a Cuttlebug, if you've ever seen those. It cuts up to 40 different materials and it has a dial to adjust the pressure so you don't have to make a shim sandwich.

I looked at Gina K's blog and my gosh, the gold Christmas card was just stunning! I'd like to try my hand at making cards some day. It's so kind of you to make cards to donate since they're so time consuming and a real labor of love.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge
