    I use Strathmore Bristol vellum for most techniques (great for ink blending) and Tim Holtz watercolor paper. I would love to try the Neenah for stamping. I used American Crafts adhesive runner for many years (based on one of your videos many years ago) but can no longer get refills. I just ordered a Nuvo glue pen based on good reviews.

    Hi Jennifer, I like a lot of the stuff you liked. Real hard to pick a favorite maybe that ranger Matte medium adhesive. I use that a lot too I glue on diecut words and things like that I’ll squeeze some out on like a piece of scrap paper and move it around a little and then I’ll take the diecut in rub it right over it it works great and there’s very little waste. I also got the 250 box of the Nina took it to FedEx charge me $1.59 to cut every single sheet in half awesome awesome thanks again Jenn!
