Only 10 minutes into the video, and I have learned something valuable! I have been stamping for many years, and you finally taught me how to mount the image picture onto a stamp. Thank you, thank you!
Love, love, love your tip on placing the labels on! Ty! Also just wanted to let you know your voice is very calming. Whenever I'm stressed or sad I always put on one of your videos and I feel better! I of course watch all the time anyway but your videos are not only informative and fun to watch but great therapy! Actually stamping is my therapy, has been since I got divorced many years ago, a great creative mind altering hobby. Appreciate you!
Thanks so much Denise! I have never had anyone tell me that before. I have alway hated the sound of my voice. LOL! A lot of people tell me that my laugh is what they love to watch and it makes their day. Dang, maybe I should start charging for being a therapist. LOL! Then I would be rich!
@Lisa Freeman, Stamping With Lisa I've been Stampin' for decades and have always struggled! I always enjoy your videos. Your cards are always an inspiration. I, of course, always give you a 👍 and save them. Thank you for all that you do both online and in your "personal life."
Here's a tip for using the extra color strips on the back of the stamp pads: use them to wrap around blending brushes for easy color-coding without having to look at the brush bristles or wrap them around the tops of re-inkers so you can easily see the color (if you store them upright) without having to pull out the whole bottle. Love your stamping style, Lisa. And your mole joke from a few weeks ago was priceless!
Thanks so much Mari Beth! I use my blending brushes for multiple colors but I will do the ink refill one. I can’t ever read the name of it because the print is so small on the bottle. So glad you liked my joke! Lol!
I love the idea of lining up the covered half first…. It now seems obvious that’s the best way. I’m disappointed in myself that I didn’t think of that, and I’ve been struggling for years! Thank you! 😊
Thank you for the tip on how to put the stickers on the red rubber stamps. That is the best tip Ive seen so far. Ill try it next time I order some red rubber stamps. Thanks again.
Lisa sorry I couldn't watch your video last night, but in the UK it was midnight, but OMG I have learnt so much this morning, I have only been stamping for a few months 3.5 😊, I wish I had found stampinup at the beginning instead of wasting so much money on other equipment. But my collection of stampin' up are massively growing. And today's delivery I have placed my stickers on my stamps "perfectly" I'm now off to clean my sissers, and that's not all. So thank you so much for your help, support and advice 💖💖💖
Hi Denise! I am so glad you found my video helpful! I will try to do more fun tips and tricks videos. I have hundreds of other video tutorials too you can watch that are all full of fun things.
@@stampingwithlisa hi Lisa, I have you linked to the notifications dear, so I've already watched tonight's video on the Easter gift bag/box 💖💖 plus found some of your older videos.. Many thanks for your tips and advice 💖💖
Thanks Lisa. I’m actually new in Stampin up, but I want to encourage my friend to use these products rather than her cricket and especially the crafty paper. you nailed it. What you’ve said is exactly as I’ve experienced. I’m definitely sharing this video with her. And I love all of your creations. Thank you.
Just an FYI - The actual weights are Color card-stock 80 lb; Basic White and Very Vanilla 80 lb; Thick white 100 lb; Vellum 43 lb; Watercolor 110 lb; Foil sheets 100 lb; Glitter paper 105 lb and Window sheets are 100-110 lbs. I love that the color card stock is colored all the way through and not white on the inside, that’s a big plus on making your cards look much nicer. Great video, thanks for the tips. I always had a hard time putting my stamps together because of the RA in my fingers, now I do it your way. Sure wish I could fix some of my “before Lisa” ones.
Thanks so much for the info. THat's weird though. I was almost sure that the colored cardstock was 110 lb. If the thick white is 100Lb, it should be about the same. It is definitely thicker than the white and vanilla. I'm so glad you like my way of putting the stamps together though and it helps with your RA.
Great video for beginners and even those of us who have been at it for a long time can learn. Before I got into Stampin’Up I used to get so frustrated trying to find ribbon to match card stock, I love how SU all matches.
Thank you for sending me this Lisa! I'm going to try your stamp mounting method. It is so much easier than putting the sticker on the clear block. My upline only trims the red rubber from her stamps and I've found it too difficult, again you made it so simple! I use little alcohol prep wipes to clean my blocks.
There is so much great info in this Lisa!!! I love how you get your labels on your stamps!!! I have learned so much just in the first few minutes!!! I feel like the little country mouse on the first trip into town!! In awe!!!
This is a really helpful video.....I like your idea on mounting pictures on red rubber..... The blades for my trimmer come with a plastic cap over blade. When I replace the blade, I put the cap on the old blade before I throw it away. Ty for all the great tips
Ok, I just knew I'd learn something new from you. Been stamping more than 15 years! The rubber square to clean your scissors and the hand sanitizer on blocks. What revelations. Thanks so much, Lisa❣
I’ve been stamping for over 20 years also and still learned from all your tips. I saw your tips on how to label stamps just awhile back and that was SUCH a game changer for me. The tip for cleaning scissors with the eraser was great too. Thank You for doing this video. Looking forward to the others.
Have not been stamping very long and sometimes it is overwhelming to ligure out the basics! Love the way you showed how to put the labels on the stamps. Never seen anyone do it like that! Thank you for so many great tips! I enjoy watching you so much!
Lisa, this is such a coincidence. I've been searching all day today for tips on inspiration for card designs, color choices, and just basics of getting my MOJO for making cards, and here you are today, of all days, doing a video on that exact topic. My lucky star must be on duty for me today. THANKS!!
Thank you so much Lisa. Very useful 💙💙💙 separately I’m sending you a screenshot before I add my like. Right below this 101 video, there were exactly 101 likes, no kidding
Lisa, This is the greatest tip that I have seen putting the images on the cling stamps. I have already done several sets. I did have a couple of the images that folded back on itself, but was able to unstick it. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Lisa! You shared a lot great information! I love how your stamps come in cases!❤ Also how everything goes together! ❤️ Thank you for sharing ❤️
Great video Lisa! Even after 13+ years of using SU product to make cards, even tho I've been a demo for 10+ years, I picked up a couple tips from you. Many years ago, when I was a photographer in the Army, I stationed at Ft. Benning GA, where I worked with an old civilian man named Joe, doing medical photography at Martin Army Hospital. Our supervisor pulled me back to the Main Post Lab, and sent a different guy to work at the hospital with Joe to learn medical photography. Well, that guy made Joe so mad telling him he already knew everything about photography that there was to know, and that he was a professional, that old Joe about had a coronary, called our supervisor and told them to get that guy out of his lab and not to send him back. Told him to send Kitty Cat back! Lol! 😂 My last name at that time was Kitts bc of my 1st marriage, so Joe called me Kitty Cat. Anyway, the supervisor sent me back to work with Joe bc I was the only one who could get along with him. When I got back there, he told me what Sgt Grode had done to make him so mad, and then he said "Kitty Cat, as long as there is something left to learn, you are never a professional, you're just a well educated amateur!" Lol! 😂 I loved that old guy, and he taught me alot. He's gone now, had a heart attack and passed away out fishing a few years after I was transferred to Italy, but I've always remembered what he told me. Lessons like that keep a body humble, and help you avoid a case of the big head.🤣🤣🤣 I think it's wonderful that you are doing 101 classes for beginners. I wish my upline had been so helpful. Well, I guess I'll see your video tomorrow night. Since RUclips did updates and messed up my notifications, I may have to watch the replay. Have a blessed week. Hugs!!! 💖
Hey Kitty Cat! Now I have a nickname for you!! LOL! That is very true! None of us are perfect except for Jesus and none of us know everything either. I learn new things all the time watching other demos. I have been a demo for over 20 years but there are always new techniques and stuff coming out. I just learned a new easier way to do bows a couple of weeks ago too! I am going to try to do another stamping 101 video tomorrow. Just trying to think of topics.
I just started using the colored sticker with no words on the top side of my ink pad vs fighting to put it in the little inside tray. You can see the sides when the pad is open so the color sticker there works for me. Love your cleaning tips! Love your cards and your blah blah blah too! 😉
HI AGAIN, Lisa! A REALLY GREAT VIDEO! I’m a “seasoned stamper” and I, too, learned a few “tricks” n’ suggestions along with some “good refreshers” as well! :-))) I’d asked about cleaning photopolymer stamps that “lost their sticky” n’ your tip is GREAT! WORKS LIKE A CHARM! :-)) I have BOTH the Stampin’ Scrub n’ the Shammy to clean stamps~~the Scrub is good for really deep cleaning, I think, especially on really detailed stamps! And for Stazon, too!! This was a WONDERFUL OVERVIEW of supplies/tips for beginners n’ “oldies”, Lisa but I also think your idea of videos w/a product focus is TERRIFIC, too! I’ll admit, I was a MICHAEL’S shopper at times (and Archiver’s, too, when they were in business) but it was MUCH MORE “HIT n’ MISS” especially w/ink n’ cardstock colors n’ matching w/DSPs!! Oh dear!! That CHALLENGE is GONE w/SU products!! THEY CO-ORDINATE EVERY TIME! And FINISHED PROJECTS TURN OUT “AWESOME”! :-)))). Your stamp trimming share here was VERY HELPFUL to me as I seem to “press my stamp too hard” into the ink~~I have to remind myself to just tap lightly!! Haha! (I even remember when we HAD TO TRIM OUT ALL STAMPS ~~ONLY RUBBER ONES THEN~~~so trimming just a bit to get rid of those “edge marks on a card” is a breeze!!). TFS n’ HAPPY STAMPIN’, TIPPIN’ n’ CREATIN’! SMILES from Madison, WI! :-)))
Hey again Judith! I'm so glad my tip for cleaning the stamps worked for you. I found that out by trial and error and I thought well maybe they just need a good wash. Worked like a charm. I love how Stampin Up products coordinate so well and I have to trim my stamps. I can't stand it if I stamp something and get an edge and I am usually very careful about tap, tap , tapping lightly but it still happens. It's worth the extra few minutes it takes to do it. Have a great day!!
Great tips, Lisa. I wish I’d seen your method for putting labels on earlier! So easy. I’ve shared this with a friend who is just getting started in stamping. I know it will be a big help to her. Thanks!
Great tips! Have to agree with others I loved to see how you mount your stamps to the labels! I also thought I would save money buying from Michaels , Hobby Lobby..etc. I ended up with hundreds of dollars worth of product I have given away or let the grandkids use to play with. So happy that SU has everything to match. Must admit though that I buy a lot of my ribbons and DSP when it’s on clearance. Thank you so much for a great video
I’m so glad you liked it. Yes I love how stampin has everything coordinated for us. As you can see, I buy a lot of clearance items too and I’ve decided to keep using them even though they are retired. Maybe they will bring back glitter and shimmer paint!
I just watched your video and enjoyed it so much. I'm new to making cards, but I can't seem to find my way to where I want to go. I have received stampn up cards from friends and they are so pretty. They look Store bought. On the video, what you said about buying paper from Micheals, well that's me. I have bought from several different stores when paper and stamps are on sale. I do try to get the heavier paper. My question to you is, does stampn up have pictures and instructions on how to make a card with your paper. I have no imagination of how to make a card and need a photo and instructions to help me. Thank you, Dianne
Hi Dianne! I’m so glad you found me. I have over 500 video tutorials in my channel and do live videos twice a week. Anything you buy from stampin up has tons of videos. Just put the stamp set or paper name into the search bar and tons of videos will pop up. There are also tons of samples in the stampin up catalogs.
Thank you Lisa for all the useful tips and overview of products. I have a question, how do you tell if embossing prowler stops working properly? I have heard this happens from a couple demonstrators but not what it does. Thank you
Yes it does! Usually it gets a funky smell and gets kind of clumpy and just doesn't melt right. Kind of like spices. I had white embossing powder turn yellowish too.
Hi Lisa! I enjoyed the ver informative video. Do you have a tip on the best way to remove Tombow glue from your hands? I have very dry hands/ skin, and I don't like using glue very well because of getting it on my hands and then having a difficult time getting the glue of my dry hands. Any ideas or tips? I usually scrub and scrub on my hands, but still have some glue residue on my h ands until it just wears off; and I highly dislike that!
Hi Sherry! I use that glue all the time and usually if I get a little but in my finger or something I just wipe it off with a baby wipe right away or wash my hands. I’ve never had a problem getting it off. Try washing your hands and then put lotion on. I’m constantly putting lotion on so I think that helps too.
On stamps, when we get new stamps, can we do something to make stamps, stamp more clean. Not sure if it the correct word to use but the stamp and ink don't stamp pretty! Sometimes there's bubbles or something. What can we do to the stamps both the red or clear. Some people say use your finger and rub the top of the stamp, use microfiber cloth, use Versamark. What is the Best to make your stamp, stamp pretty without things on your ink or stamps. Please, HELP! Thanks about cleaning the stamps so the can stick to your block, wow didn't know what to do! One thing, do we have to live a comments to get a free card. I haven't gotten or drawn to get a card from you. Am, I doing or saying something wrong? Sorry, if I am. I love your cards and you! Anyway thanks the wonderful treats, tips and other. What about the pick tool?👍🙏💘
Hey Maria! Sometimes when I get a new stamp set, I will use a nail file and just rub it across the top of the stamp and it will take off any residue or bumps like that. Also make sure your ink pad is not too juicy. I take a bone folder or spoon and rub it across the top of the pad. I’ll show that on another video soon. As far as the comments and the free cards, I could’ve sworn that you had won one recently. I’m so sorry. I don’t really keep a list of who wins, but I try not to pick the same people over and over. I’ll make sure you get one soon.
Only 10 minutes into the video, and I have learned something valuable! I have been stamping for many years, and you finally taught me how to mount the image picture onto a stamp. Thank you, thank you!
I'm so glad! A lot of people have commented on that. I have always done it that way but most people I have seen do it a different way.
You always make the prettiest cards. I don’t typically watch Stampin up anymore… but you are my personal exception 💕
Awe!!Thanks so much! 😊
Love, love, love your tip on placing the labels on! Ty! Also just wanted to let you know your voice is very calming. Whenever I'm stressed or sad I always put on one of your videos and I feel better!

Hi Lisa!
Hi Julie!
I use my paper cutter "upside down" too!
great minds think alike! LOL!
Lisa, I use silicone gel on a q-tip.
Hi Lisa.😊
Great video Lisa, many thanks for it. Can the shammy be cleaned?
Yes, absolutely. I just drop it in the sink when I finish washes dishes or just run under hot soapy water, rinse and wring to remove excess water.
Great tips! Have to agree with others I loved to see how you mount your stamps to the labels! I also thought I would save money buying from Michaels , Hobby Lobby..etc. I ended up with hundreds of dollars worth of product I have given away or let the grandkids use to play with. So happy that SU has everything to match. Must admit though that I buy a lot of my ribbons and DSP when it’s on clearance.
Thank you so much for a great video
I’m so glad you liked it. Yes I love how stampin has everything coordinated for us. As you can see, I buy a lot of clearance items too and I’ve decided to keep using them even though they are retired. Maybe they will bring back glitter and shimmer paint!
I sometimes use 8.5 x 14 paper, although I rarely need to cut it longer than 12 inches.
I use the paper trimmer like you.
THat's funny. It's seems like the way I use it is normal and everyone else does it wrong. LOL!
I just watched your video and enjoyed it so much. I'm new to making cards, but I can't seem to find my way to where I want to go. I have received stampn up cards from friends and they are so pretty. They look Store bought. On the video, what you said about buying paper from Micheals, well that's me. I have bought from several different stores when paper and stamps are on sale. I do try to get the heavier paper. My question to you is, does stampn up have pictures and instructions on how to make a card with your paper. I have no imagination of how to make a card and need a photo and instructions to help me.
Thank you, Dianne
Hi Dianne! I’m so glad you found me. I have over 500 video tutorials in my channel and do live videos twice a week. Anything you buy from stampin up has tons of videos. Just put the stamp set or paper name into the search bar and tons of videos will pop up. There are also tons of samples in the stampin up catalogs.
Thank you! I'll give it a try.
Thank you Lisa for all the useful tips and overview of products. I have a question, how do you tell if embossing prowler stops working properly? I have heard this happens from a couple demonstrators but not what it does. Thank you
Yes it does! Usually it gets a funky smell and gets kind of clumpy and just doesn't melt right. Kind of like spices. I had white embossing powder turn yellowish too.
Great video 👏👏👏 I wish I’d known this 10 years ago. I would have saved a lot of money 🤣🤣🤣
You and me both! LOL! I'm glad you liked it!
Hi Lisa! I enjoyed the ver informative video. Do you have a tip on the best way to remove Tombow glue from your hands? I have very dry hands/ skin, and I don't like using glue very well because of getting it on my hands and then having a difficult time getting the glue of my dry hands. Any ideas or tips? I usually scrub and scrub on my hands, but still have some glue residue on my h ands until it just wears off; and I highly dislike that!
Hi Sherry!
I use that glue all the time and usually if I get a little but in my finger or something I just wipe it off with a baby wipe right away or wash my hands. I’ve never had a problem getting it off. Try washing your hands and then put lotion on. I’m constantly putting lotion on so I think that helps too.
@@stampingwithlisa Thank you!
Take your pick tool
I know! I forgot to show it! I made a list for the next video already. LOL!
On stamps, when we get new stamps, can we do something to make stamps, stamp more clean. Not sure if it the correct word to use but the stamp and ink don't stamp pretty! Sometimes there's bubbles or something. What can we do to the stamps both the red or clear. Some people say use your finger and rub the top of the stamp, use microfiber cloth, use Versamark. What is the Best to make your stamp, stamp pretty without things on your ink or stamps. Please, HELP! Thanks about cleaning the stamps so the can stick to your block, wow didn't know what to do! One thing, do we have to live a comments to get a free card. I haven't gotten or drawn to get a card from you. Am, I doing or saying something wrong? Sorry, if I am.
I love your cards and you! Anyway thanks the wonderful treats, tips and other. What about the pick tool?👍🙏💘
Hey Maria!
Sometimes when I get a new stamp set, I will use a nail file and just rub it across the top of the stamp and it will take off any residue or bumps like that. Also make sure your ink pad is not too juicy. I take a bone folder or spoon and rub it across the top of the pad. I’ll show that on another video soon. As far as the comments and the free cards, I could’ve sworn that you had won one recently. I’m so sorry. I don’t really keep a list of who wins, but I try not to pick the same people over and over. I’ll make sure you get one soon.
