We will be closing our doors permanently, effective Jan. 28/12

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our loyal customers for their support of us and the store. And we must thank our Design Team members (Sonya, Krista, Barb & Dianne) who have put their heart and soul into their work and shared their love of scrapbooking and card making with everyone who entered the building. And our not-so ‘silent’ partners Sharlene & Tammy for all of their support, ideas and encouragement. And of course, our beautiful and flexible Joan, who was always there when we needed her! And last, but not least, our wonderful (underpaid) husbands who supported us and built or move anything we ask them to.

We will no longer be selling Gift Certificates, and all GC holders must redeem balances prior to close of business (4pm) on Saturday, January 28^th.  Only completed Points Cards will be redeemed, partial cards cannot be used.

In the Scrap Club we will meet once a month for 4 - 6 consecutive months (depending on how many people sign up). Each person in the group will be assigned a month to receive a gift certificate with the value based on each person paying their monthly fee (4 people = $100). Each person commits to paying $25 per month whether or not they can attend each crop.

When we meet each month, we will have a 3 hour crop time, in which you can work on any scrapbooking projects you wish. At each crop, there will be a bonus for all attendees, such as a make and take project for you to complete, a free product, layout kit, etc.
