Stampin' Up! Glass Mat Upgrade

Stampin' Up! Glass Mat

I purchased the Stampin' Up! glass mat and decided to supercharge it with magnets! The magnets are a game-changer; they help keep your card layers perfectly aligned during gluing, eliminating any shifting or slipping. If you don’t have a glass mat, you’re missing out on how easy cleanup is; I simply wipe mine with alcohol prep pads (HERE) for a quick, spotless finish. 

You can get the Glass Mat directly from Stampin’ Up!; just choose me as your Demonstrator, Beth Adams. Click HERE to buy. When you purchase from me, you get to choose either one of my DSP tutorials or three individual card designs ($4.95 each) from my blog. I’ll follow up with you after your purchase.

Magnetic Glass Mat

To magnetize my glass mat, I attached two steel metal plates to the back using clear shipping tape from Amazon HERE.—just be careful with the sharp edges. You can find these steel plates on Amazon as well, linked HERE. 

I used magnets with knobs, which I purchased in two sets; one set might be perfect for you. You can buy the magnets HERE. To protect the paper from the knobs, I laminated business cards and glued the knobs on top.

Now you have a professional, step-up glass crafting mat! The provided links are to my Amazon Affiliate Account, so it doesn’t cost you more to buy through these.

Paper Pumpkin - Inked Occasions April 2025

I'm finally rediscovering my passion for crafting. Over six months' worth of Paper Pumpkin kits have been sitting untouched, cluttering up space. But now, I’m back to creating and loving every minute of it. Paper Pumpkin is truly the best way to dive into crafting; I’ve been making cards since 2008, and I always look forward to receiving a new stamp set and crafting challenge each month. I love that I have a 12-month subscription, and I can skip any month if it doesn’t catch my interest—that flexibility is a lifesaver. The monthly hints about what’s coming up are helpful to see if I’ll enjoy the kit, fitting perfectly with my style. 

This is a hint to June's kit. 

In April 2025, the Inked Occasions kit included three card designs with enough supplies to make nine cards—but I went a step further and used the card bases to create eighteen cards. Crafting has become so much more fun and fulfilling again!

This is my Four-Quadrilateral Layout Card. The diagram and measurements are available for $4.95. I also created a Brother ScanNCut file - all the measurements are done for you, just place you cardstock on your cutting mat and click start. Please be sure to let me know if you want the Canvas Workspace cut file I created for my Brother ScanNCut.

How do I use it my Brother ScanNCut - Example #1

This is an easy card layout, and I took it a step further to make things even simpler. Being frugal, I wanted to save on cardstock and time, so I created a simple cut file using Canvas Workspace. Here's what the cut file looks like: I created two separate rectangles and grouped them together. The machine then cuts out the outline along with the center, making assembly quick and efficient.
