Beyond Memories.....

I've always mentioned that the basic of scrapbooking is creating a memory keepsake which is very important to each one of us......and I've learn alot of life from this amazing hobby. The wonderful things that a scrapper does.....

Not too long ago.....I was amazed by 2 scrapper, Yin Wen & Geraldine(who are also our teachers in The School of Carton). I was amazed by their friendship and bond. They have known each other for slightly more than 6 months but the sheer friendship that they share between each other cannot be described. It was scrapbooking through scrapbooking that they got to know each other as friends.

Sometimes it amazes me that something as simple as snipping and gluing of paper can build such bonds.......guess till now as I keep walking down this road, scrapbooking keeps showing me the other side of people to people relationships.

Somehow all this inspired me to create Social Scrapbooking. I wish to give other scrapper a chance to meet other scrapper's out there and maybe a chance to build new relationships and bonds with other like minded.

The School is Moving...

Hi everyone!

Just alittle announcement.......The School of Carton is moving......No...not moving and breaking away from The Scrapbook Carton, just that at the rate the Carton is moving, The School of Carton needs alittle more of the space on its own and what we have coming up, we definitely need more web space for The School of Carton...

Please visit The official blog for The School of Carton here

http://theschoolofcarton.blogspot.com if you would like to manually key it in.

Please visit it for the latest information on classes and please look out as we would be starting a new form of class......oh wait....I don't even think I'll call it a class....well...I'll let you all know when things become more concrete....


Moving forward....

Tonight marks the end of the 2 promos.....Scrapper's Teabreak & Scrapper's Supper. Hope everyone got their fills on these 2 great offers......

I think we got through in moving scrap supplies at great prices to scrappers that it helps to lower the cost of scrapping....we'll still move in the same direction of "Less on Us, More for You"

But.....I'll like to move towards a new direction for scrappers....promote another wonderful thing of this hobby......keep a watch out as we move closer to each other......

Inspire.....

First I would like to introduce our very first Guest Designer of the Month, Joanna Lee!

Web

She will be coming out with a layout next week to give everyone inspiration and introduce us to her style of work. Do visit her blog to see some of her work.

I really wish to bring scrapbooking back to the basics of scrapbooking. I was chatting with someone today and she told me that scrapbooking has become highly competitive within the community, everyone is comparing the style of work, effects they put onto their layouts etc etc.....

But isn't scrapbooking about retaining the memory of that precious moments..... That's why I started The Scrapbook Carton....I want to bring back the basic...one carton at a time..I remember creating a competition at the start asking everyone to tell their story from their scrapwork and the judging criteria gave a higher scoring to whoever content was better. The layout/design was secondary. That is because I wanted to bring back the culture and real ideas of scrapbooking.

I find memories are precious. Just as everyone, I have problems and tussles with my Dad. I go home from work feeling angry from our strained relationship.....but it's the memories of my happy times that bring me to the real truth to our relationship. It is beyond what happens at that heated moment but the memories when you think back.

I don't scrapbook but I know scrapbooking is really about treasuring those memories and I want to bring forth this cause I know how important those memories are to us.

Hope there are people out there who feel the same....and bring forth this message to every scrapper and bring back the basics......Inspire others with the basic and remind them of the memories and go beyond the desire to compete......and always to share your work with the intention to inspire others with your memory and not the design.

Take a first step and share us your story. Inspire.

Carton Collection.....

This is alittle late......but we had our Self Collection Wednesday a few days ago but I was too busy the last 2 days feeding hungry guest at my New Years Eve party that I didn't get to update the blog. Sorry, Sorry!

Anyway we had our own Carton Girl to conduct our Self Collection! Ta-Da!

CG-1

The bad thing about it is that she will be only able to help us out for one more Self Collection Wednesday cause she'll be back to school so we'll be finding someone else to fill the shoes.

Self Collection is a great alternative to getting your scrap supplies, you totally SAVE on the shipping charges. Do consider it for your purchases if you are able to pick it up on Wednesday at Bishan MRT from 6.30pm-7.00pm. Just make sure that you get your orders in before 5pm every Tuesday to make it for Self Collection Wednesday. (Self Collection Wednesday is only for Singapore Orders)

The $1.00 Sassafras Paper offer would be ending soon so do take the chance to grab these paper at special prices. Do keep a look out as we would be launching our next promotion soon, keep a look out on our facebook and blog for the latest promotions.
