MOVING SALE

As a lot of you already know, I have still been missing from the store over the past couple of months due to health reasons. At this time, I have still not received a diagnosis to whatever is ailing me. Due to the fact that I am still not driving, I have decided to move the store inventory back into my home and run everything from my home as I did several years ago. That way, I don't have to worry about trying to get rides to and from the store and aside from doctor apointments, I am pretty much here. We are having a Moving sale on Monday to get the ball rolling! Hope to see you there!

The Perfect Tools

Perfect Layer Rulers 

For years I have said that if I had to pick only one tool for sale in my store, it would be the Perfect Layer Rulers. These rulers are the most perfect tool for matting photos and stamped images! I have used mine for going on 10 years now. I even bought extras for Christmas gifts for friends over the years because they would always steal mine at crops. When the manufacturer took them off the market last year I almost cried a flash flood down Woodruff Road. Well, they are back and I couldn't be more excited!!!!!!!

 



Perfect Square

They also now have a tool called the Perfect Square. I have been testing this Perfect Square and I LOVE it just as much as my Rulers! I am finally getting the straight cuts that I rarely ever got with my paper trimmers.


Layout made using Perfect Layer Rulers (1/8") and Perfect Square


Air Art Brush
 
Two other tools Perfect Paper Crafting carries are the Perfect Tears Rulers and the Air Art Brush. I have also had the Air Art Brushfor about 10 years. It is an air spritzer that you use with markers to spritz your colors with hand power almost like an air brush. I have enjoyed this spritzer for many years.




Layout made using Perfect Layer Rulers (3/16"), Perfect Square & Air Art Tool (Spritzed Red Stage paper, Flowers & Polka Dot Brad w/ Black Copic Marker)


Perfect Tears Rulers
 
And, of course, the Perfect Tears Rulers work much like most tearing rulers except that they are clear with measurements and come with a water brush to aid in easy tearing of your paper. My customers are aware that I normally just hand tear my paper, but I did use these rulers the other day when I wanted a nice big wave pattern and it did a very nice job.


Layout made using Perfect Layer Rulers (1/16"), Perfect Square & Perfect Tears

At long last, mostly due to all of your pleas, all of these tools are now available again from Perfect Paper Crafting (with some new tools being talked about)!  Use coupon code Scrapnesia5% to get 5% off your order!


Happy Scrappin'
