Big Shot Video & Quick Tip about Texture Plates!!!

Tutorials/Tips

10 Feb

Hi,

Just a quick post, while my dinner is cooking. I had a couple questions the other night about the Big Shot, and there is a great video that teaches you a lot about it.

Check it out Here!

TIP!!!!!!  Another thing….have you got the new texture plates for your Big Shot and they aren't imprinting as deep as you would like?  Well my friend and neighbor Cindy said she heard to spray the cardstock with alcohol first.  I never tried it…so my BFF Tracy called me today and said she did not like the look of the textured plates cause it was not deep enough, so I told her about spraying the cardstock with the alcohol, and she did it and she said it is like night and day, she LOVED it!!!.(I have heard that it is important to NOT breath in the alcohol mist….so be careful).  Please note she used rubbing alcohol and not vodka.  The alcohol dries quickly on the paper where water would not.  Cool eh?  Thanks Cindy for telling me and thanks Tracy for trying it out and saying it works….

Thanks for stopping in!

Hugs, Di

    Hi! I'm a lurker, but thought I'd de-lurk (really, they should make this a legitimate word) to say that misting with water will also work equally well. No need to spray alcohol, especially if you have young 'uns or pets nearby. Or on yourself, of course.

    Thanks for a great blog!

    Gah! I'm hitting myself on the head. I'm so sorry, you already adressed the matter of alcohol drying faster than water. I must read more carefully. My apologies! Please ignore my prior comment. I'm a moron who should have remained a lurker.

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
