A Favorite Product

 I love making cards and sharing them with others.  I love watching videos and reading blogs of other card makers and paper crafters.  But one thing that I don't see a lot of is favorite and least favorite product shares.  I do see them from time to time, especially with crafters who use several companies items. But I have not personally seen a lot of Stampin' Up! favorite product reviews.  (That's not to say they aren't out there!)  If I like seeing those types of posts, I thought other may as well.

Stampin' Up! has so many good products.  Honestly, I love most everything, but if I had to choose just one current product, I would choose the Take Your Pick Tool.  This tool is a multipurpose tool that can help with many tasks while crafting.  It comes with 3 different attachments and a fourth can be bought as well. Two of the attachments are double sided, giving it even more bang for your buck!  These attachments get screwed onto a small handle that is similar to a thick marker or pen.  Each end can hold an attachment, so you can put your two most used attachments on and switch them out when you need something different.  Lets go through these attachments.

Take Your Pick Tool

The first three attachments all come with the Take Your Pick Tool upon ordering. 

Attachment A:  This attachment has two sides. One side is referred to as a paper piercer and the other side is a mini spatula.

Attachment B: This attachment has two sides as well. Both sides are referred to as a stylus and the difference between the two is their size, one smaller than the other.

Large and Small Stylus Attachment

Attachment C: This attachment is one sided and is filled with a tacky putty.  When your putty has dried or is just not usable anymore, you turn the end to release a bit more putty.  (Refills can be ordered for this attachment.)

Attachment D:  This attachment is a die brush. This last attachment needs to be bought separately, if you wish to have it.

Now you may be thinking, "Wow, that's a lot of attachments, but I don't know what they are used for, or "I wouldn't use this".  Well, I thought the same things!  I actually put off ordering one for quite some time, then decided to just go ahead and try it.  Bear in mind, that some people may use their Take you Pick Tool differently than others, and that is perfectly OK!  You can use each of your attachments as you see fit, but let me tell you which ones I typically use and what for.

I use the paper piercer for.... paper piercing!  Hehe.  If I need to make a small hole in my paper, for a brad or something, this is the perfect tool!  But more frequently, I use this to pick up glue dots and to poke small pieces out of dies that don't fall out on their own.  this attachment is one of my two most used so it stays on the handle unless I need to swap to another attachment.

The other attachment that I leave on the handle is the putty attachment.  This is perfect for picking up those tiny sequins, rhinestones, pearls, and other similar small items.  It has just enough tackiness to hold the tiny item but it isn't so tacky that you can't get the item off when trying to place it on your project.

Anyway, that is enough for now about this incredible tool.  So, I'll leave you with this.  The price is unbeatable and you can find it here in my online store.  I'd be happy to help you in any way I can and I would so appreciate your business!
