We've got some GREAT things in store for 2011 here at the Scrapbook Outlet! In addition to adding more scrapbooking product to the website, we also plan on starting a blog. The blog will be updated weekly and will have new product information, upcoming class information, instructional tips, and more! The blog will also feature the Design Team members work and other in-store events as well.
We've got some new classes coming up as well. Alexandra will be holding a bi-weekly card club starting January 12 from 1-3pm. Each month a different grouping of Hero Arts stamps will be featured. Card made will feature various techniques including embossing and other stamping techniques. Classes cost $10 each and students will make 2-3 cards per class.
Also planned for the new year is a monthly Tim Holtz class taught by Lindsey. Each month a different project will be featured using Tim Holtz products and techniques. Classes will be held on Saturdays near the end of the month.
Continuing in 2011 are the monthly Cricut classes, Duets card classes, and also the Outlines Stamp classes.

Stop in for 20% off all regular-priced scrapbooking this week!! Save on paper, tools, embellishments, stickers, and more!

Wishing you and yours a very safe and Happy 2011!!

Welcome to the Scrapbook Outlet's Blog

When I am at a loss for new ideas for my scrapbooking or cardmaking, I turn to the internet.  There are countless sites and blogs, like this one, that are chock full of ideas when you have 'scrapper's block.'

The goal of this blog is to give tips and share our knowledge and tricks of the trade with our fellow scrappers.   We will also have cardmaking techniques, altered items, and more featured on here as well.  I'm a firm believer that cardmaking and scrapbooking go hand in hand so techniques learned in one format can be used in the other.  Pictures, videos, and sketches will be featured as well as tips from our teachers. And of course, the Scrapbook Outlet's Design Team will be featured here, with their monthly projects and tips.  We'll also link you to some of our faves and who we get our inspiration from.  And feel free to comment and ask questions.  We'd love to hear your feedback!!

So hang onto your glue sticks and sharpen your scissors for some inspiration, ideas, and fun! 




Happy New Year from all of us here at the Scrapbook Outlet!!
