FEATURED PRODUCT: Hero Arts Ombre Ink Pads

Hero Arts Ombré ink pads offer a gradation of color from light to dark, all in one vibrant dye ink pad. Each features three of our mid-tone formula dye inks for smooth results.

For best results, use a back and forth tapping motion. This will eliminate any harsh lines. We like to say “cha-cha-cha” while we’re doing it. Think of it as “dancing with your stamps”.

Don’t forget you can get more from your pads by using each color individually with small stamps. For larger stamps such as background stamps, just rotate the pad and keep on inking. Jennifer McGuire shows how to create some fun backgrounds and color in stamped images using the Hero Arts Ombré Inks in the video below... and yes, loads of "cha-cha-cha"!!!

top 10 things we love about the Mini Albums

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

1. If you feel intimidated about scrapbooking, Project Life is the best approach (in my humble opinion) because it requires no adhesive, trimmer, tools, gadgets, embellishments, or even experience at all. But sometimes that “big” 12×12 album still intimidates people. Enter the Mini Album. (Great for beginners, great for kids.)

2. For a little book, it sure holds a lot.

3. The faux leather exterior is so soft, you kinda just want to hold it all day long. All the while, it’s really sturdy.

4. The divided plastic inside is clear and strong and awesome – just like all of our Photo Pocket Pages. And … they’re sewn right into the album! No posts. No rings.

5. There are 4×6 pockets for your photos and Title Cards (when you want to use those) and 3×4 pockets for Journaling Cards. Nothing complicated.

6. Great way to use all those extra Project Life cards that might be hanging out in your stash.

7. Perfect way to document a special occasion, trip, or theme that doesn’t warrant a full 12×12 album.

8. All 5 color options are deliciously gorgeous.

9. The built-in pocket on the front with a protective window? Yep – it’s perfect for a 3×4 card (title) or photo.

10. If you pick up a Project Life Mini Kit, that goes perfectly hand-in-hand with a Mini Album.

a short history of Tim Holtz distress evolution ...

The world of distress continues to be an evolution of creative discovery.  What began 13 years ago as a unique dye ink formulation of 6 vintage colors has expanded into a palette 60+ colors and crossed into various categories including stains, paints, glitters, embossing powders, mediums, surfaces, markers, and crayons…

As of 2017, we embark on a new adventure with the introduction of Distress Oxide – a dye and pigment ink fusion that is reactive with water creating a realistic oxidized effect – available in Scrap-n-Crop.com.  

What’s already been described as “wizardry”, “epic”, and “game changer” will soon take your creative journey to new places.  With the latest order, we have 24 colours available in store.
