The invention relates to an embossing stamp, comprising at least a base body, in which laterally a receiving element for receiving a printing plate holder and on a further side an actuator are provided, and the actuator is designed in such a way that it acts directly or indirectly onto the receiving element, in particular onto the printing plate holder, where in the base body a rotating axle of the actuator is provided, characterised in that the insertable printing plate holder comprises a receiving element, preferably with an embossing ornament, and the receiving element provides at least a positioning recess for inserting positioning elements such as letters, symbols and/or elements. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a printing plate holder, a receiving element and a positioning element.

A craftwork accessory may provide a portable and/or easy-to-use tool to help users' accurately and repeatedly apply stamp impressions and the like to items such as cardstock. The accessory may include a base portion, one or more elevated side portions and cover portion. The side portions may define a workspace for arranging the item. The cover portion may be movably attached to the base portion or a side portion, for example, by one or more hinges. In operation, the item and stamp may be aligned in the workspace and the cover portion may be pressed onto the stamp to stick the stamp to the cover portion. The cover may then be opened, the stamp may be inked, and the cover portion may be closed and pressed onto the item to stamp the item. The accessory may include alignment indicia on the base portion, side portions and/or cover portion to facilitate placement of the item and/or stamp. The accessory may also include fastening mechanisms, such as magnetic elements, to facilitate placement of the item and/or stamp.

A portable crafting tool, which may be readily transported from one location to another and placed on a tabletop or another suitable surface for use, and which includes rollers for applying pressure to a craft assembly, is disclosed. The craft assembly may include a platform with a tool, such as a cutting die, an embossing tool and/or a letterpress tool, a sheet of a medium (e.g., paper, vellum, acetate, foil, etc.) that is to be modified (as pressure is applied to the craft assembly) and a mat or a cover for positioning over the sheet of medium and the tool. The portable crafting tool may include a gap spacer, which adjusts a distance that the rollers are spaced apart from one another. The portable crafting tool may be configured for selective operation with a manually operated handle or with a motor that may be used in place of the handle. The portable crafting tool may be configured to engage a surface when it is deployed on the surface.

An auxiliary tool includes a first stamping plate, a guiding frame, and a magnetic element. The first stamping plate is detachably attached on a first side wall of a container, and has a plurality of positioning grooves indently and spacedly formed on a first outer surface of the first stamping plate. The guiding frame has an engagement rim detachably engaging with one of the positioning grooves, and a supporting platform shaped and sized to correspond to the stamp. The magnetic element is mounted on the guiding frame to provide a magnetic attractive force for magnetically attracting the stamp so that a user is able to impart an impact on the stamp for forming a printed text on a workpiece.

A mixing and paint-making device and method for making paint are described. Embodiments of the paint-making device include a first and second palette hingedly coupled to a base. The base includes a paint pot shaking component configured to agitate and/or translate a paint pot. The paint pot shaking component includes a series of gears and pistons that interact to produce a shaking motion for a paint pot coupled to the paint pot shaking component. In one embodiment, the paint pot shaking component includes a crank gear adjacent a combination gear that contacts a slide crankshaft. The slide crankshaft is coupled to a slide crank arm that is secured by slide bracket coupled to the base. A paint pot harness holds a paint pot during agitation and moves in an upward and downward motion corresponding to the motion of the slide crank arm.
