Yay, glad you dig it! My cinch is a little different, its got measurements and directions on the front base. I cant believe they took that away! Ill send you a pic of mine…maybe it could be helpful? Not done w video but wanted to comment before i forgot! 🎉
Ami - I kept looking at the book you gave me and I just couldn't stand it!! By the way the binder ring that you used on that Tell Tale book is a brushed or tarnished brass look. Do you remember where you got them? I was looking for that color and I can't find it.
@@ThePaperMonkey Yeah, I checked my order for the rings and the only thing I could find was a box of black ones from Amazon. 🤷🏻♀️ but thank you because you helped me remember I need to buy some more sizes! And colors! 😄
Hi Carrie💕 You have totally knocked it out of the park, awesome video. You did a fabulous job explaining everything and I am sold. Thank you for all your kind works about my work I so appreciate you. Love your booklets you made those will be a hit. Big pat on the back girl, love this. 🤗Super big hugs
Awe thank you so much Celeste! This means alot to mean❤️❤️❤️ I love this thing and the projects possibilities are almost endless. But talk about a scrap buster!!!! I am going to make some mini books very soon. I'll share that on video. But like Karolina does such a great job with her machine. Let me when. you pull the trigger - I know your creations will be fabulous!
Oh Angela you have to! It is awesome - it's a challenge though and alot of template pages went into the first making but well worth it in the end. This is a fantastic scrap buster also!
Lordy Jennifer thank you for watching this mess! Please go check out Karolina's video - she has a couple actually. She's very good at showing the ends and outs of this machine. Happy 4th friend⚜️
Thanks for sharing sis. I used the other type at work also with the plastic coils. We did have a push button to cut the holes. I think it was a happy accident the one inch didn't work. The gold looks so vibrant and goes with the stickers so beautifully!!!!
Remember those machines T? God that feels like forever ago - that was before we could just send it out to the printing company, LOL! Thank you - I do like the gold better also. I am going to make some mini Christmas books soon! Stay tuned sister.
Thank you so much DeDe!! Yes I've seen Diane from Pretty Pink Cottage use a Zutter! I am so glad you are getting yours out! This is really a ton of fun!!!
Dollar Tree, Hobby Lobby and Walmart have YT channels. We thought about getting the cinch, but the coils is what stopped us in our tracks cause they can get pricey, so I went to a different machine. Jennifer McGuire is another good die-cutter. She shows you some great tricks you can do on her machine. Do you have an Office Max down there? They have index cards and several other things that go with them. I was looking for index cards last week. I use them for recipe cards. Bless those books with prayer before they go out. Amen! ❤ 🩵🩷💙✝️
Good Morning Carrie! So exciting, I was waiting for this video! I have that paper pack and I love it! I think I will being a tutorial on making whale tails without the punch because unfortunately I do not have the punch, I have to make mine by hand. A lot of crafting is trial and error, and this video will help a lot of people. These booklets are amazing! And your ideas are as well. Great job Carrie, loved the video!
Thank you Tommi - I linked the Amazon one in the description and my friend Ami @amiruthtreasures has one and she loves it. I am so glad that they finally started selling the punch. I didn't know that about the die though. I am going to check this out for sure!! Thank you for the tip.
I have been looking at this cinch for a long time and with this video you have convinced me to get it (when finances allow). I love those Faith stickers and your booklet is gorgeous. Oh I must say I love that "Jesus Loves You" stamp also. The ladies will truly be blessed to receive these. Thank you for sharing this. I'm Canadian, but Happy 4th of July ♥☺♥
Hi Joan! Wasn't July 1st Canada Day? If so Happy Belated Canada Day friend❤️. Yes go get the machine when you can! I am having a ton of fun with this thing. Like I said it is a bit of learning and trial and error but it is worth the effort!!! There are so many projects that you an do with this😊
LOVE THIS! I was looking at a cinch machine but just can't justify the cost, so I am gonna live vicariously through you! Although, these little books make it VERY tempting to go look at those machines again 😂 Also, Snark n Fun should be the name of my amusement park 😂 💜
Snark and Fun - you are a marketing genius, LOL!!! these little books are so much fun and a great scrap buster. I am going to do some mini's next - stay tuned😉
Cheryl thank you for that. I wandered the first couple of times I used it if I was going to be able to use it...I still don't have the hang of it completely. Hope it's a wonderful Wednesday!
Carrie - Thank you so much for making this video. I’ve been wanting to get a cinch binding machine for a while, so this video was really helpful. Everyone’s comments have been really helpful, too. It’s clear people love them. Now I *really* want one! Question: Did you consider the Zutter Bind it All, and if so, why did you choose the one from We Are Memory Keepers?
Hi Meredith! I watched Diane Hubert at Pretty Pink Cottage use the Zutter and it seemed to me it was a lot like the mini Cinch. I knew the mini Cinch was limiting on the size book you could bind so I assumed the Zutter was the same. I don’t know that for sure though. I kept watching the Cinch on Amazon and then it went on sale so I pulled tue trigger. I am going to do a video tomorrow on another Cinch project I am currently working on. I do not regret buying it but I am no pro by any stretch and I still curse 🤬 a lot when I use it 🤣. Thank you for watching! Hope it’s a great weekend girl!
@@ThePaperMonkey I watched that same Hubert video a couple of months ago. I rewatched your video this weekend, and I watched a couple of other videos about the machine you bought. I think I’m going to go with the one you have. I really want to start making cinch bound journals!
Meredith I don't think that you will regret this. Keep me posted please. I also just buy the knock off metal coils from Amazon. I haven't purchased the WeRMemory Keepers brand on those. There may be a difference in quality I'm just not sure. But I have been pleased with the coils I am buying. I get them off Amazon. Let me know if you have any questions I can help with. Have a lovely day!
Hi Carrie, thanks for this informative video. My Cinch has been languishing unopened in its box for > 2 years now. I may just have to crack that baby open! H
@@ThePaperMonkey Carrie, I have a strong work ethic, don't have a day job, don't fritter away my time---yet wonder how in the world I'll ever get to all those things I want to do. If you have any advice on that, I'm all ears. H
@@hazelanakadesign7071 I'm sorry friend - it seems the older I get the busier I am and the longer my to do list gets. How does this happen? Or is it that I've just gotten to the point where I don't function as quickly as I once did? I'm not quite sure. It seems we all struggle with not enough time. Especially when it comes to craft projects. I definitely have more project ideas than I do time. So to answer your original question...I got nothing friend. 😉
Yay, glad you dig it! My cinch is a little different, its got measurements and directions on the front base. I cant believe they took that away! Ill send you a pic of mine…maybe it could be helpful?

@@ThePaperMonkeyI’m not sure, because all of mine are done in black! 😄 Are you sure it’s the one I made you?
@@AmiRuth_Treasures Maybe it is black....it has a hippopotamus on the front
@@ThePaperMonkey Yeah, I checked my order for the rings and the only thing I could find was a box of black ones from Amazon. 🤷🏻♀️ but thank you because you helped me remember I need to buy some more sizes! And colors! 😄
I LOVE LOVE LOVE making my LGB journals using my Cinch!
I just finished binding one this afternoon and it is fun!!!

Thank you. Always wanted to see someone use this machine & their honest opinion. Great instructions
You are very welcome. Thank you so much for watching! I’ll have more videos using the Cinch binding machine coming soon. Happy 4th
Great tutorial Carrie! I guess I need to bust my cinch out of the box and give it a go.
Oh Angela you have to! It is awesome - it's a challenge though and alot of template pages went into the first making but well worth it in the end. This is a fantastic scrap buster also!
I love my Cinch. It punches through book covers easily!
I am loving this tool!
I would love to know what kind of cinch binder you use!

They sell the punch now on Amazon and Temu at a huge fraction of the price of the stampin up one. They also make a die that has it in three sizes. ❤
Please make that tutorial!!! There are sooooo many people who want the whale's tail tabs - that would be so helpful!
Thank you Tommi - I linked the Amazon one in the description and my friend Ami @amiruthtreasures has one and she loves it. I am so glad that they finally started selling the punch. I didn't know that about the die though. I am going to check this out for sure!! Thank you for the tip.

I have been watching this a few minutes at a time. This machine is great but way too hard for me, even though you explained it wonderfully.
Cheryl thank you for that. I wandered the first couple of times I used it if I was going to be able to use it...I still don't have the hang of it completely. Hope it's a wonderful Wednesday!
Hi I never knew there was something like that. I will have to investigate them.
Oh Angie there is this kind and others...and they can get kinda pricey. I am glad I invested though.
