Tinkering Ink's Rip Strips

So...I've been catching up on my blog reading and came across this from Kezia at http://www.tinkeringink.com and LOVED these flowers! She created these using their new Rip Strips that we have in the store with their new beautiful Retro Metro and Beau Jardin collections. Here is what she had to say " above is what I did with the Rip Strips in about 15 minutes. All you have to do is rip one of the strips off the sheet and since it is sticky back printed canvas material you can pleat it, ruffle it, scrunch it… when I was done pleating it into a circle I glued a button into the middle of the flower. You can use it to frame a photo, make a flower on a lay-out with a stem and a leaf… how about roll it up and tie it in a knot around something on your lay-out? Are you getting the Ti groove here? The Rip Strips are endless fun and excitement!" Try them out! I'm getting some tomorrow when I get in the store! hehe

Mr. Campy is here! and so is much more!!!

HELLO MUDDA, HELLO FADDAH scrap your memories from Camp Granada. They'll look lovely on this paper embellished with scalloped scissors and you stapler. Add some Blackboard for dimension and we have stamps now, we'd like to mention. Clear space then, why are you waiting? When it comes to Mr. Campy there's no hesitating.


Each set of Rub-ons have over 90 images!

ONCE UPON A MIDNIGHT DREARY, while I pondered weak and weary, over many a quaint and curious photo of Halloween lore. With Haunted I sat happily scrapping, when suddenly there came a tapping as if someone gently rapping, rapping at my scraproom door. "Tis the UPS man," I noticed with rub ons, blackboard and something more.


6"x13" cardstock stickers in 12 themes! $2.29

ONE LITTLE MONKEY JUMPING ON THE BED. His mama snapped a photo and then she said, "I should be angry but instead, I'm gonna scrap this moment on yellow, green, blue and red." One little monkey swinging in the tree. The mama snapped a photo for all to see. Jack's world will be perfect, you will agree for all of the mama's and their little monkeys.


And let's not forget the original blackboard ~ memory boxes, house & happy album, blackboard for each collection and alphabets. There is ribbon cards and ribbons by the yard. Every collection has rub ons, die cuts, cardstock stickers, journaling stickers, clear stamps, strip tease, crafting kits and of course the PAPER!

Here is a sneak at one of the class kits that will be available as our gift to you with your attendance at SCRAP PINK!
