We know this month is supposed to be about all things HAPPY!!! Unfortunately, we’re sad to say that Experiment #1 for an alternative form of registering for a crop party has FAILED!!! Sob! Sob!

Many of you have been asking us if we’ve received your text messages regarding your confirmation of registration for the crop party but sadly, for some strange reason, something must have gone wrong and we apparently haven’t received any from many of you.  Various theories are swimming around, perhaps, too many of you smsed at the same time and it got jammed up or something … … or there were inherent problems in the SIM card itself … whatever it is … we thought we’d update you on the situation and start over.

We’ve spoken to the service provider and at first, we were asked to wait it out a few days as all text messages are supposedly stored on their server. Unfortunately, to date, we have not received any of the text messages sent by many of you who have enquired at the store regarding the status of your registration.

As such, it is with our deeeepest apologies for any inconvenience caused that we are re-opening registration. Let’s try this one more time, with a different number if you don’t mind … … to see if this can be done!!! If it doesn’t work again … … we’ll update you on plan B. At this point, we’re in between crying and laughing at this debacle!!! And are just hoping that it doesn’t cause any of you to tear your hair out!!! We soooo want to see you at the crop party!!! And will do our best to make it happen in as convenient and as fair a way as possible.

So here are the instructions … …

This time, the number to text message your registration to is 9424 1348.

And if you have tooootally fallen in love with clear stamping, then you might wanna get the packaged set of acrylic blocks in assorted sizes.

These no-nonsense looking bottles work wonders and these are what they’re for if you’re unfamiliar with them.

Paper Finishes - Doubles the life of photos, scrapbook pages and paper crafts, protects against moisture, fading and smudges. Opt for a matte or glossy finish.

Make It Acid-Free - neuralises acids that deteriorates paper, protects paper from getting brittle, extends the life of newspaper clippings, scrapbook materials and more!

Workable Fixative - protects pencil, pastel and chalk drawings, prevents ink from smudging and wrinkling, allows for easy rework.

Glit Flexible Abrasives - Sanding Pads that you can use for both painting and distressing. But we had a good laugh when the translation of the words ’sanding pads’ on the packaging read ’tampons de poncage’ !!! Oooo… that’s nasty!!! :P By the way … it comes in the medium or fine form.

{Plaid}

 

Altered art fans unite as modpodge has been re-stocked!!! As usual, there’s variety and you can opt for sparkly modpodge or ones that are suitable for the outdoors or paper only, matte or glossy finish. There is also one for the antique look. And we’ve also brought in great foam brushes for painting and for you to apply mod-podge onto your projects with. Sold singly, you’ll find this really useful if you’re into painting and altered art!

{BEHIND THE SCENES}

Malee, Anita, Thiah Pine, Earth, Shixuan, and Chris did a faaantastic job with the stock-take and display. Thank you sooooooo much for working wth Sandra, SweeCH and i, into the wee hours to get it all up for everyone!!!

And with everyone gone, we set out to put the finishing touches to things. There’s always 1001 things to do around the store. … … Here’s Sandra at 7am … … just one more thing to do … … or is it … … it will be done, come what may!!! … she says …

Swee Ching at 7am … … headache over the placement of a few last pieces of patterned paper … … You’d think we’ve all got  obsessive compulsive disorder or something, doing what we do, week after week, which i’m not surprised if we do … …

And as usual, if you remember my insane middle of the night experience at Mustafa Shopping Centre with her which i blogged about last October was it? … her funny antics started to surface again when she was sleep-deprived this morning!!!

No photos of me cos i look like i’ve been run over by a truck!!! Heheheh!!! The privileges of holding the camera i suppose.

Photo is totally out of focus … my tirednes showing in this pic … but thought that you may like to know that we’ve had to move some pattern paper away from their usual locations. Most of the new stuff are upfront but this time, you’ll find ALL NEW Love Elsie and Cosmo Cricket patterned paper collections at the wire racks just outside our tiny office, to the left of our cafe (if you are facing the scrap labs with the entrance begind you), at the back of the store. Cos these days, EVERYTHING in the store seems to be NEW!!!! Hahaha!!!

 … really hope this helps … we know stuff gets moved around so much these days which is why we are a little more religious about putting up signage. But still feel free to approach any one of us if you have trouble locating some stuff.

Anywayz, till we meet again … … keep on lovin’ and keep up the scrappin’!!!
