Did you know....

...that working with paper draws the moisture from your hands?

...that using regular lotions while scrapping can leave smudges on your papers and photos and may even damage them permanently?

...that until now there has been no way to safely moisturize your hands and go straight back to your paper crafting.

But did you also know that TINKERING INK makes a line of GREASE-FREE LOTIONS that can solve all of these problems?

Well we do.  And it's amazing stuff.  Recently featured on the Creating Keepsakes website and in countless crafting magazines, our greaseless lotion is making it's way into craft-rooms and crop-bags all over the world!  This lotion can be applied to your hands and you can go right back to touching paper, photos, embellishments and even your computer keyboard without fear of leaving a greasy mess everywhere.  And with high quality ingredients it will leave your hands smooth and moisture rich for hours.  The natural ingredients in this lotion make it perfect for those with even the most sensitive skin.

But it gets even better!  You can alway buy our unscented lotion from our website or the crafting store near you, but we also make limited edition fragrances to match each of our paper and digital lines.  So you can find the scent that inspires you and make it your signature fragrance. 

We are convinced that once you try this lotion you will never go back to those greasy, heavy lotions again!  Pick up a bottle in our full size or our mini crop-tote size today at http://www.tinkeringink.com and scrap like a goddess!

Flooded With Love

We have met with Simple Scrapbooks Magazine a few times and had the opportunity at those meetings to chat a bit with the ultra-cute and fabulously nice Rachel Gainer. Last Friday, as I scrapped, I heard her voice on the television and when I looked up, there she was on the local news. Her house, which I believe was only built last year, was flooded to within 1 foot of the ceilings of her basement. And there was Rachel talking about how blessed her family had been.

Her little family has had to replace the water heater, the furnace, and the windows. In the coming months they will need to replace other items that they lost, as well as the landscaping in their backyard.

We have set up a Paypal account for them if anyone wants to donate to help them with these costs. I know how good I feel when I give to others and how much I want to teach my children that it is better to give than to receive. If you can donate any money, please send it through Paypal to floodedwithlove@yahoo.com I am going to make the first doantion right now.

And because Tinkering Ink loves Rachel so much, we will be giving away full sets of our Westminster line to 10 individuals who make a donation in the month of August (you must donate at least $10 to be eligible for these prizes).

If you read this please pass it on to your friends and family who may also want to help.

Let's flood Rachel's family with love and support!
