Welcome to the Scrapbook Secrets website, the online face of our retail superstore in Maddington, Western Australia.

If you are ever in the area, please drop in and say hi - you will be pleasantly surprised by our extensive range of products and friendly helpful staff.



Welcome to Scrapbook Secrets!

We don't normally PRICE MATCH

however, we may be able to reach a compromise...

so talk to us, to see what we can do.  


 

Make that Page Classes

Have fun making a whole bunch of different layouts with our talented scrap Kat!  These particular classes are aimed for an intermediate+ level scrapbooker, as they are not specifically technique-based.  Note: They will only be offered TWICE in this schedule and will not be repeated after July 2012.

 

MAKE THAT PAGE 3

Sunday 4 March

@ 2.00 - 4.30pm

class MTP3 

Class cost is $35 for a 2.5 hour class. 

The classic red and blue tones and patterns of Basic Grey's 'Picadilly' range is the focus for this double-page layout. You will do some hand-stitching, inking, misting and make a hand-made flower plus some titling from the Cricut 'Sophisticated' cartridge.  

Note: To take this class, it is NOT necessary to own a Cricut machine.

KAISERCRAFT

Lil' Primrose

This range reminds me of my blue 'Holly Hobbie' doll when I was young but only more pastels and pink.  There are lovely outline stamps to colour with your Copics for cards or make pretty accents for your scrapbook page. Again, don't just think little girls for this range...look further to new babies (regardless of gender) and springtime or garden photographs.  I've got a few of the pale blue sky and spring sage background papers for some more 'baby at the hospital' photos. This range is certainly worth a closer look and is proving popular!

Hummingbird

This groovy, bright range will keep you guessing with birdies, deer, butterflies, birdcages and foliage.

We've selected a few key pieces to this range, so if you are chasing a certain design that is not on our shelves, please register your interest with our shop girls via our priority order service.

UPDATE

Georgia Keays, Kathy Hall & Tanya Sullivan

 

We've had the pleasure of knowing Georgia Keays for quite a few years,
since she first got started with scrapbooking.  A complete natural,
Georgia took to the craft like a duck to water!  Her work is distinctive
and can be spotted from half a mile...
I think perhaps we should call this style..."the Georgia"
.
She has finally joined our team here at Scrapbook Secrets to pass on her wisdom
in the form of two different classes. Intermediate 3 with lots of layering
and stitching and Advanced 6 with a great, super-layered page that is just
begging to be framed. Thanks so much G for agreeing to take us on!

A hundred and one congratulations too, to Georgia for her appointment as a member
of the inaugural Basic Grey Design Team.  We are super stoked for you
(somewhat jealous!) and are thrilled that one of our own has been chosen to
showcase one of the best manufacturers in the industry. 

To see some of Georgia's fine work and keep up with her scrappin' life,
check out her blog "That Old Sweet Song".

We look forward to seeing what the future brings for you,
scheduling lots of yummy classes with your super layouts!

***************************************

 We're thrilled and chuffed to have Kathy Hall (Kat) join our chirpy nest.  Kat will
be teaching our 'Make that Page' round of classes (5) which run only twice per six
months; changing in July.  She is extremely creative, love the Cricut, has extensive
teaching experience and in a lovely person to boot! Classes are scheduled
to start in January, so call the store for details.  Kat will also be working in the store
on Sundays prior to classes, getting to know our customers and where everything is!
We hope you'll say Hi! and make her feel welcome :o)

So from one Cat to another Kat, Welcome Miss Meow!
It's so nice to have another Kitty in the nest! Cat x

Hey Everyone,

 My name is Kat, although I will often answer to Meow as well.
I am a mum to a delightful 6 1/2 year old daughter who is already showing an
addiction to scrapbooking items - in particular Prima (my poor husband...lol)
and I work full-time teaching Year One at a local primary school!
Life is busy and it's just the way I like it....
I have a slight coffee addiction, can't imagine why :D

 So some background as to why I started scrapping....
the usual birth of a child here but with an added incentive.
My Dad passed away just over 6 weeks before Amberlee was born
and I wanted to scrap pics of Dad and tell parts of his story -
this is a project I am still working on.

 I have designed, taught and worked in scrapbooking stores since early 2008
and am definitely seeing the cyclic rotation that comes as part of scrapbooking.

Certain manufacturers have won me over and I buy any range that is released by
Jillibean Soup, October Afternoon and Echo Park.
Other favourites include Cosmo Cricket, Authentique and WRMK.

 I love all things Cricut and can often be found attached to my gypsy,
I recently upgraded my Cricut Expression to a CE Version 2 and I love it.

 I'm a self confessed scrapbook tool junkie - I'm embarrassed to admit
I don't think WRMK have released a tool I haven't got hiding in my scrap room.

 So What's my style?? One month it can be crisp and clean with lots of
negative space and the next I am throwing paint like there's no tomorrow
(although this style tends to be for my own personal pages).
I work with the paper, my photos and what my current inspiration is.

 You can find me on facebook, pinterest or my blog.
I am really looking forward to the opportunites available
at Scrapbook Secrets and hope to meet you soon.

*************************************** 

  We're blessed and excited to have Tanya Sullivan join our chipper nest.
Tanya is teaching our 'Creative Cards' line of classes (6)
which covers the basics of card-making then follows on to a 'as styled' basis.
Tanya has made some beautiful cards, has a wonderful sense of style and has
extensive teaching experience.  You are in safe hands with Tanya!

Classes are scheduled to start in February, so call our store for details.

 

Hi! my name is Tanya and I’m a card-maker –
and before you ask, no, I don’t scrap!! 
I’ve been making cards for six or seven years,
and have been working and teaching at a scrapbooking shop
for the last two and a half years.

I’ve had several cards and card sets published in Cardmaking,
Stamping and Papercraft magazine; which is always exciting.
I really love teaching and hope you can join me at
Scrapbook Secrets in a Creative Card Class soon!
