Tips and Techniques: Shabby Chic Favor Tins

2012-01-30T08:08:00.000+08:00

By Vanessa Spencer

This charming favor idea from Stampington & Company is a sweet way to express your love to friends and family this Valentine’s Day and can also be reused for future occasions that require a special gift or romantic touch. Dressing up some mini tins and filling them to the brim with yummy treats is a sweet way to show the special people in your life that you truly love and appreciate them.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -

INSTRUCTIONS

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Begin by giving the tinsa light sanding with sandpaper. This scratchy surface with allow paint to adhere better.

Paint the outside of the tins with pink acrylic paint and allow to dry.

Then paint roughly over some of the pink with crackle paint and set to dry.

Applying a thin coat of paint will allow for faster drying.

To avoid the paints chipping off, cover the outside with a thin coat of collage pauge to seal and protect it.

Add some small torn strips of vintage French book text to the lid.

Layer over some shabby ribbons and secure a button in the middle of the ribbon.

Cut out your favorite clip art words and adhere them to the lids.

Place some white tissue inside the tins, and then fill with treats.

Make yours today by getting some supplies at Scrap-n-Crop.com now.

SnC's Featured Artist Feb/Mar 2012: Marina Khong

2012-01-16T08:18:00.003+08:00

We've not done Featured Artist for a long time now …

So we thought of starting it again in 2012 and what better way to kick-start with our very own home grown talent - Marina Khong.

Also Scrap-n-Crop.com's Crop.Arty lead this coming 5th February 2012, check out her gorgeous work below and more in her blog - My Scrapspiration.

Copyright - Marina Khong

Here's what Marina has to say about her love for Scrapbooking …

I’vealways loved creating beautiful things but I’ve only discovered my love forpaper crafting last year in 2011 when I left my ten-year career as a brand marketerto be a stay-at-home-mum. My boy inspired me to start scrapping so I canpreserve his precious growing moments. It’s so amazing how scrapping canbring memories to life and really enhance the mood of the moment.

Nextto scrapping layouts, I enjoy creating cards and gifts. Some of my favouritetechniques are distressing, misting and layering. I love adding flowers, pearlsand glitter for that glam touch. There are endless resources andmotivations out there and we can draw inspirations and ideas from anyone andanything. I believe one’s creativity is only limited by the boundaries of one’sown imagination so we should constantly challenge ourselves.

Atrue bibliophile at heart and a shameless foodie, when I’m not busy crafting,you will find me immersed in a book or trying out new food with the hubs.

Shopping Tips 101: Fax of Payment Receipts

2012-01-11T08:18:00.001+08:00

We sometimes receive fax copies of payment slips without a name or order number reference.

This is very difficult for us at Scrap-n-Crop.com as we are an online store and rely on names and order numbers as a point of reference since we do not see you physically!

In order for your shipment not to be delayed, please quote your order number on the fax before sending it over to assist us to match the payments efficiently and more importantly correctly.

You may find this difficult to believe, but there are days where we receive similar amounts of payments and orders by different buyers.

And on many occasions it's impossible for us to match if the payment made is for a combination of a few orders.

So ladies, let's be smart and prudent with our shopping!

Fax your payment receipts with your name and order number reference.

Thanks and happy shopping,

Val

NEW ARRIVALS!!! >100 Different Golden Heavy Body Acrylics in SnC

2012-01-09T08:18:00.000+08:00

This is definitely every artist and painter's dream come true … Scrap-n-Crop.com has restocked over 100 different Golden Heavy Body Acrylics in addition to other Golden Acrylic Mediums and Additives.

With so many colours to chose from… we at Scrap-n-Crop.com tried not to go over board with the purchase, but even then, we ended up with more than 100 different colours!!!

So what's so GREAT about Golden Heavy Body Acrylics?

...

GOLDEN Heavy Body Acrylics are noted for their exceptionally smooth, rich, buttery consistency. These paints have the ability to “stand up” and retain brushstrokes or palette knife marks on the canvas.

Each Golden Heavy Body colour is formulated according to the nature of the pigment, allowing for maximum transparency or opacity.

Golden Heavy Body Colors do not use fillers, opacifiers, matting agents, toners, or dyes in their paints. These paints are exceptionally thick, and have a smooth and buttery consistency with excellent lightfastness and permanency.

Buy your Golden products from Scrap-n-Crop.com HERE.

.Psst… word has somehow gotten out to artists and painters in Klang Valley … we've been having quite a number of visits to the Scrap.Abode with them picking up Golden rather rapidly.
