Welcome to ScrapbookTradingPlace

Hi and welcome to the ScrapbookTradingPlace Blog!

We are in the process of building our website http://www.scrapbooktradingplace.com/ and we hope you will come along and join!

We are going to be putting together co-ordinated scrapbooking kits for you to purchase on a monthly basis. We will be using the best quality and a fantastic variety of items in our kits to keep you coming back for more! We will also have a community forum and gallery on our site you can come along and chat and make requests and ideas.. you are the customer and we will listen to you! The gallery will be a great place to post your layouts and projects from your kits as well as any other scrapbooking layouts you want to share.

So I guess you want to know how it is all going to work….here is the deal!
We are going to offer a choice of TWO fantastic co-ordinated kits per month, they will include a range of matching 12 x 12 patterned papers, matching cardstock sheets, some kits will have a matching 12 x 12 die cut sheet and there will be matching embellishments galore such as: ribbons, buttons, bling, chipboard motifs and pieces, felt pieces, rub ons, stickers etc. Some kits will have acrylic stamps and some will also have MINI ALBUMS so you can complete a whole project and they will be unique albums !

You can purchase the kits two ways, as a member or non-member. As a member you get the kit at a discounted price (about $4 less than non-members) you sign up for 6 months and agree to purchase one kit per month for the 6 months. After the initial 6 months you can choose to retain your membership which requires you to only purchase 6 kits in the next 12 months.. so basically one kit every 2nd month.. of course you can still buy one or two per month at the discounted member price! If you purchase both of the month’s kits, we will not charge extra postage.

And now for the INCENTIVES… for every friend you get to sign up, you get a free gift and I am not talking about something flimsy that you will never use.. I am talking about beautiful bling, brads, rub ons, stamps.. you get the idea, if you sign up 10 of your friends you get a FREE kit including postage!! we want you to LOVE our kits and our gifts, we want you to brag about them to your friends, we want the hardest decision you make all month to be "which kit" do I choose!… if you are interested please leave a comment with your email address so we can send you a sign-up email…The first 3 to sign up receive a free gift with their first kit…

We want this to become a community of scrappers and paper crafters and one thing we are incorporating into the forum and gallery is a section called STL’s… that stands for Scrapbook Trading Layouts… I have been doing this personally with quite a few people both in Australia and the States… we email each other one or two photos and then do a layout for that person and then we send it via snail mail for them to keep and cherish. It is a GREAT way to make friends as well as get to see how other people interpret your photos! I have some absolutely gorgeous layouts in my albums made for me by others! So we really hope you will join in.. All guidelines will be posted in the forum!

We will also have a challenge and RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) section in the forum with great prizes!


Thanks and we hope to see you at ScrapbookTradingPlace…
