Hi Mary Jo,
My fave tool is my Cricut Expression! Actually, I've never met a scrapbook supply that I DIDN'T like! Lol
Hey Mary Jo,
I use my rotary cutter for my scarpbooking it is a easy cut for my hands. I must get in to see you it has been a long winter. My favorite scrapbook is one of my granddaughter on a fall day in the leaves.
I am the anonymous...I am new to the whole bloggen thing
another fave is my Zyron machines for adhesive and laminating to make things archival.
Hi Mary Jo:
My favorite item are the chipboard books--I love making all of the miniature chipboard books and give them as gifts--and it is all your fault! You are the one that got me started on them! Keep up the good work--love your shop!
Sally D
my favorite thing to use when I make my cards is my scraps. I use every square inch of my paper. every sheet of paper is a work of art itself so I have to respect it. Yesterday alone I was able to make 16 cards from scraps from an 8x8 album that I completed.
My Xyron 150 is the one tool that I just LOVE!!!! Can't do without it.
Hello Mary Jo
My favorite scrapbook item has to be rub-ons. Second is journaling stickers/rub-ons, whatever to make notes on my pages easier. Journaling is the one thing I leave to last, and the last thing I remember to do! I've been really into telling stories with my pages, so anything journaling tops my list.
Oooh I think my favorite product is Thickers. And you don't help, carrying new styles and colors almost every time I'm in there!
I really enjoy the punches (as you know I have purchased several of them!) and the clear stamps.
But most of all I enjoy your classes!
Thanks
Diana
I love the corner rounder. Sometimes you just need a softer look and rounding the edges of pictures or paper really softens the look of the page!
Scenic Route Paper Company paper -- anything they make is beautiful and I use it all!
Hello Mary Jo,
Have you ever thought about franchising too NY. Are local store is going out of business and you have done a great job with your place! As for my fav's I don't think I could really pick one. My latest must have is your New little chip board books.
Hi Msry Jo,
My must have tool is my paper trimmer, I don't think I've ever done a page with out it. But my favorite thing is paper, all kinds of paper. I just love it!!!
Hi Mary Jo!
I really like Scenic Route paper company..........they are the bestest!! I do not have tooo many actual tools, so almost any tool would be too cool!! lol!!
Lisa R.
I like the corner rounder for my pictures.
Heidi D
Hi Mary Jo!
My favorite must have items are rub ons! Any kind. I don't feel like a layout is complete without them.
Paule H.
Hey There,
I have to say I really like chipboards. They really add flare to the pages.
Krystal C.
I think the one embelishment that I can not live without would have to be ribbon, or maybe buttons...I cant decide. I always buy thoe 2 things constantly. I have more ribbon that I know what to do with and I am constantly giving them away. I just love the way buttons look as well!!! Oh and there is also chipboard, I LOVE chipboard. I just cant decide!
Hi Mary Jo,
My favorite tool is the sissix die cutting machine. I like the different weight of paper that I can cut, even my own chipboard.
penny ohmer at pennyo@VBR-Erie.com
any 3-d embellishment that adds dimension to a page or card
Mary Jo,
My favorite paper line is Studio Basics 101! It is the only paper line that I have found that truely expresses the energy and excitement of kids! :P I found this line when I happened upon your store last week. I will be back! :)

This is a tough question! I love paper! My favs are scenic route and ki memories. But there are soo many great choices.
Jamie C
I love brads and eyelets, they can dress up any page or card.
Heidi D
Hi Mary Jo,
I love the bag books. I did my first bag book for my pets... little poodles. Everyone loves it! I really like the little colorful rings that go on the bag books... So fun! Beckie
Hi Mary Jo,
Not sure I can pick just A single item. Each has there own benefit in this art. For this comment I'll say the quickset eyelet tool. Sure keeps the house be quiet after the kids are asleep.
Joanne
My favorite scrapbook tool is my corner rounding punch. Its a great way to draw attention to a special photo on a page. It also gives the photo an old fashioned look! Great item!!!
Hi Mary Jo,
My favorite embellishments are ribbon and brads. Love to make cards using both of these.
Robbie
I could'nt live without my glue dots and now that they have the pop up (3-D) ones I'm happy. Glad I don't need those awful two side peel and stick ones I always had trouble getting one side to peel.
Peggy E.
Alphabet stamps and paint.
Messy = fun.
Bree M.

Lisa

Lisa sorry I forgot my name on the last post (OOPS)
paper paper and did i mention paper ? punches are a very close second and glitter gotta add the glitz!!!!!
My favorite tool would be YOU
You are always very helpful and full of great ideas!!
Thanks for allyour help
Diana C
I like to use pop-dots to help make one of the pictures really stick out on the page and be the focal point.
Heidi D
journaling spots -- I have so many I may never use them all!
Bree M.
Hi Mary Jo
I must say my fav is punches I just love to add shape to my projects
Darlene Kinnear
I love using ribbons and buttons.
I get downright cranky if I can't find my Snail adhesive!
My favorite tool is my cuttlebug. I recently used it for my friend's upcoming bridal shower invitations. I have been using my cb alot lately.
Word stickers -- especially from 7gypsies. They are very versatile so you can use them anywhere.
Bree M.
My newest favorite tool is the Zutter Bind it All. Its great for making quick albums to give as gifts!
I love your blog. My favorite scrapbooking and card making element is by far my stamps, they add a nice touch to my scrapbook pages, and are the very reason I started making cards. But if that doesn't count, I'm a total ribbon freak. Use it on almost every card!
Hi Mary Jo,
I can't live without my taperunner. Love it.. I also love my creative memories cutting tools.
Thanks,
Stefanie Stuart
Hi Mary Jo!
Next you'll ask me to choose my favorite child! My favorite scrap item changes constantly, thanks to Monkey Business I have pleanty to choose from. I guess for today I'll say thickers and any other self adhesive alphas, chipboard etc... I'd love to see you carry cricut items!
Thanks for being there!
lisa9er@hotmail.com
My favorite thing is the crop-a-dile. I love eyelets but always found it a pain to set them. Plus it's great for hole punching too!
My favorite, can't live without it products are Alphabet letters, especially Thickers. I cannot get enough of the Thickers. After that it would be my paper trimmer and scissors, along with patternend paper. I love to handcut embelishments from patterned paper!
My favorite tool is the cricut. I don't have one yet, but i used a friend's last week and I absolutely love it. I enjoyed your class last week
I love the 6x6 SEI scrapbooks!
Wanda G.
any embellishments with texture, like felt, leather, material and anything else you can find
Penny O.
I couldn't do a page if it wasn't for my paper cutter :o)
Heidi D
Mary Jo - just read everyone's comments, and realized mine has my username instead of my email... so Chameleongryl is Lani H.
I thought more about this question today (I was supposed to go to a crop, but DH is OOT) and thought that I love scrapping WITH FRIENDS. They're a great source of inspiration and motivation... so that's another favorite.
My white paint pen is my favorite for journaling since it can write on most any surface without smearing.
Bree M.
Kelly Kantola here...and I'm also the first post on this thread.
Another fave tool of mine is my Cuttlebug! I love that all my Quickutz dies work with this gem of a tool!!
My fav scrapbooking tool is my camera. You defnintely can't "scrap" without pictures and I love to take pictures.
Mine would have to be Flowers! Chipboard, fabric, or stamped!
I love using all the magazines and books out there to get my ideas!
Becky C
Another one of my favorites would be your classes and the people(friends) I meet there.
Thanks for doing that for us.
Diana
Hi Mary Jo
My favorite are stamps and ink pads
water color pencils
Jeanne B
I love matching papers,stickers and embellishments--all displayed perfectly in the store!
Now I have to add the monkey to my list!!
Paula Heutsche
I'm new to the whole card making scrapbooking world and I recently had my first visit to Monkey Business where I purchased some kitty cat paper. I'm not real sure who the manufacturer was but I absolutely love it. The designs were just so cute!!! Thanks! Jackie Ewing
Hi MJ,
I love using mono adhesive it's quick, easy and works well. I also have a new love of rub ons. They are an atractive accent and they don't add any bulk to your page.
Cheri B.
Hello Ladies!!!
I just bought a Cricut Personal and it has officially become my FAVORITE. It felt like Christmas morning when it arrived. LOL.
Rub-ons are addicting and are possibly my favorite embellishment. I especially love the ones from Creative Imaginations in the Swatchbooks.
Bree M.
Hi, Mary Jo!
You got me SOoooo hooked on the Crop-adile. I went out and got one last week (thankfully, @ 50% off!). Love it. It is my new can't-live-without tool :o)
Jessica
I cannot live without my rounded corner punch!
Jessi A.
I love my punches!
Judy Viera
Hi Mary Jo,
What a great basket! I HAVE to have the dotto adhesive applicator. But what don't I love?! heehee! I love my Cricut, rub-ons and Basic Grey!
I cant get this question out of my mind I was in my scrap room and I decided that I need it all. I am sort of the over the top scrapper and could not give up one single thing. paper glue pens ink paint flowers brads if it can be gllued or attached to any sort of paper I have to have it. the life of scrapping in my world needs it all
Lisa
Hi Mary Jo,
I Love every scrapbook item I've seen. Hard to pick just one. But I do love your animal print papers, matching sticker and the new changito monkey stamps!! :0)
Missy Scholtz
I would have to go generic with my answer and say my camera. There's nothing to scrap without pictures!
Heather F.

Mary Jo:
I was just in this week for Changito the Monkey! I also purchased some of the Bee Happy stamps. Love them all. Yesterday, Missy came back and showed us all the cool animal print papers & matching stickers she purchased! They are all so cool! Thank you for giving us a place to shop for all the newest items.
Paula H.
The cat and dog brads are winners!
Wanda G.
I love card making!
Denise Post
My longtime favorite tool is my Xacto knife. I find I end up using both the handle and both sides of the blades for various things.
Giovanna T.
My favorite scrapbooking item would have to be the fun and exciting store you give us to shop in with all the latest products. Thanks Mary jo!!!
Another favorite tool of mine is my Basic Grey Magnetic Mat!!
I love that I can put my layout on it and tac down the elements and change around my designs before I glue them down!
----------------Kelly K.
My Zig photo signature pen and large brads!
Angel White
Loved the gift card class today... too cute!!
Corry Miller
This is tough to decide! The scrapbook thing I can't live without is probably my Ott light. I am never in the dark. I love brads also! And design books or magazines.
Love my corner rounder punch -- I probably use it on every layout ;-)
Bree M.
Metal brads are also a must-have. I buy them in neutral colors so I have more versatility.
Bree M.
Hello Mary Jo
I would have to go generic and say....my CAMERA! I love love love to take pictures and it's such a necessary tool to scrap.
Heather F.
fails020704@yahoo.com
Brads and eyelets are another favorite of mine.
Heidi D
Gotta have the camera. Without it scrapbooking doesn't happen :-)
Bree M.
Hi Mary Jo
I love the clear stamps they are easier to store and use
Diana C
Favorite adhesive is just an extra strength glue stick. I used to use Herma Dotto roller -- the removable kind -- but it got too expensive to buy refills. Glue sticks are cheap!
Hi Mary Jo,
Currently my favoriate tool is my crop a dile. I dont know how I lived without it.
Wendy Huegel
My favorite tool is my crop a dile I dont know how I managed without it.
Wendy H
how about anything new. I find when I buy something I use it over and over.. Like a stam or a punch or a new tool.
I love kraft cardstock for backgrounds. It is my go-to neutral color for a scrapbook page foundation. It's easier for me to start neutral and build more color to a palette than to start colorful and try to balance it out.
Bree M.
It's so hard to narrow it down to one favorite! I love my Cricut machine that has eliminated the need to have many different sizes and styles of punches. I also love the clear stamps. Oh, and I can't forget my paper trimmer that makes cutting paper for smaller scrapbooks and cards a cinch.
Amy Pound
Favorite tools are my punches!
Wendy Budacki
Hello Mary Jo!
My favorite tool is the Kokuyo Dot n Roller Adhesive. This stuff is great and it's a cinch to refill! The only bummer is nobody sells it locally. Hint, hint. I bought it at a scrapbooking convention last year and haven't used anything since.
Thanks for the chance to win this awesome giveaway!
Tiffany
My Tombow Mono Adhesive is one item I could not live without. I buy them in bulk since I go through them so quickly! I also have an addiction to paper, inks, and rubber stamps.
Now and days there are so many things to say our my favorite, but the one thing that I have to have are my emblishments. From eyelets to ribbon, I just love them, they do some much to a page.

Ribbon, ribbon, ribbon. I can't seem to complete a page without using ribbon!
Sorry I forgot to put my name on the previous post about ribbon.

Hi Mary Jo! My favorite tool is the cricut. Close second are Thickers and really any chipboard or adhesive alphas. Anything to help me title!!

Hello my favorite is chipboard pieces and mini albums they are so fun! Thanks for introducing me to the. My name is Matt King and you can contact me on my you tube channel MrADDboy2 leave a private message if I am a winner. Thanks! :)
I just love a rainbow of cardstock...It inspires me to start so many projects.
I just love all of my acrylic stamps!
I enjoy die cutting with my Quickutz Revolution. However, I really love patterned papers, too.
My computer is my favorite scrapbooking tool. I love reading everyone's blogs and watching the tutorials. It is so inspiring to see creative and new ideas.
Cardstock with adhesive backing is my ultimate favorite product. It makes die cut alphabets so easy to use.
I use every inch of my Chatterbox page kits and My Mind's Eye papers to make mini-albums and cards. I love the diversity and unique styles!
Hi Mary Jo,
I would love to win this goodie basket. I look forward to July when I will be able to drive again so I can stop by the store. You do not realize how much you take for granted until it is taken away from you. It also makes you appreciate all that we have. I love my big shot machine
