Tool Time


TOOL
TIME


The first Tuesday of everymonth will be devoted to a favorite tool of mine! Today's tool is the crop-a-dile. If you don't own one of these babies, I'm sorry. You need to call you nearest Stampin' Up Demo and get it on order. There are so many things that you can do with it from punching holes to setting grommets to making dimples or warts. This punches through paper, tin, plastic, cds, thin wood, chip board and more!



This is a crop-a-dile. There are many different places you can purchase one but all work pretty much the same. They take less force then a stapler to punch holes or put in eyelets! No more pounding or waking up those neighbors when your working on some last minute cards!






This is the front of the tool where all of your work will be done. On each side is a hole punch one for smaller eyelets and then one for the large size. The middle jaws we'll call them is where you do the eyelets. The black pegs turn and adjust to the size or kind of eyelet you are doing.










This is a picture of the side of the crop-a-dile up close. There is a measuring area and a guide you can put into place so all your holes line up exactly!









It is very easy to use and doesn't take up my storage space!!!



If you need more reasons why to buy this tool take a look at these samples. All done with a crop a dile.
On this card the crop a dile was used to line up the brads perfectly





The crop a dile was used to punch holes

yeah can we say it punched through a tin bucket! Adding accessories (eyelets) to this bucket really spices it up.



In the month of June receive TWO free containers of brads with a purchase of a crop-a-dile.

I know you want one!!
