Still Open

The printer seems to have settled down and has stopped increasing our prices.

Who knows, maybe now during this pandemic, they will appreciate our business and dial back some of their price increases. 

But, either way, ordering is still open!

PRICES ARE INCREASING!!!

Last week, our printer told us that they are going to GREATLY increase prices on April 1st <-- no joke!

And then they are going to increase them again July 1 and again on October 1st. 

If we cannot find a new printer, we will eventually close this business.

So, shop today!

It's been a while...

I don't update here much because not much has changed.

Sadly, we've seen a lot of stores close over the years, but we are still here and printing your custom designs for you!! And periodically, we send out an email, but I don't update the blog too often. Sorry!

One update that I shared via email was that we switched our shipping from UPS to Fed Ex. That happened with our July 2018 orders.

But YES!

Custom Scrapbook Stuff is still around!

Send us an email if you have questions!

Update

We haven't posted lately - sorry about that - we closed our Brick & Mortar store and have been working on growing an online business.

But Custom Scrapbook Stuff paper is still available and approving new stores to carry our papers for their local schools, places and events.

We have also continued to work to lower our shipping costs - further redusing them in June and August. The largest savings to stores is on larger orders. Smaller orders will always calculate as expensive.

What does your custom paper section look like? We have lots of ideas posted in previous posts, so we encourage you to look back.

The best way to reach us is via email:

Lower Shipping Prices to Stores!!!

We have been trying to get the rates down for you guys.

 

Starting 3/1/16, shipping was lowered slightly. The larger orders will see a decent discount amount, but unfortunately smaller orders won't see much of a discount.

 

Beginning 4/1/16, we lowered them again slightly.

 

We will continue to monitor how the shipping is going, the prices, etc with this printer to try to get the shipping charged to stores as low as possible.

 

Remember! If you just need one package for a special order for your customer, contact me to see if we can't work something out!

Consumers, if you cannot find a store near you who is willing to order our custom paper for you,

you can contact us and we'll work with you directly.

 

Catalog

We don't publish an official catalog, but I was reminded by a store owner recently that I had put this together for a trade show that we did in the spring.

 

 It doesn’t show every single option because there are so many variations of each template, but it lists each template and then below it, says if there are any options (ie: the first three are “with or without border”, "Font Options", and "Background Options").

 

The ones on pages 4 and 5 with the camera image allow a file to be uploaded, or you can choose from our gallery of photos which include many common mascot images.

Do you want me to email you a pdf of these? Just send me an email at info@customscrapbookstuff.com !!

It's getting to be "that" time of year again...

Are calendars a big gift idea in your area?
You can create custom months and then kit them together to bring the price point down to the consumer, but increase your average sale!

A new paper design???

We are considering adding a 

Waterpolo paper to our line. 

What do you think??

It would be like this volleyball one, 

but a waterpolo ball. You could add text 

to the top and/or bottom. 

And you could load an image/mascot onto it.

If we get enough positive feedback, we'll move forward to post here or email us at:

How Is Your Summer Going?

Here in San Diego, the weather has been surprisingly "cool" and we've had rain! Such a weird summer!

But the kids will be headed back to school before we know it!

Is your custom Paper Department stocked??

Do you have papers for all of your local schools?? Since we have low minimums (12 sheets per style, no minimum dollar order), you can get them for ALL of your local schools!

These are just two examples of paper styles that you can create, but we have TONS!!!

Over 40 templates to choose from!

Order today!

NOTE: If you have not ordered since June 2014, you will need your password reset. Just send us an email and we'll reply within 24 hours!

Is your local store carrying custom papers for your schools? If not, tell them to contact us to get them set up!

All But The Travel Tradeshow In A Box

If your store participated, boxes will begin shipping this week.

Look for our packet of samples!

Based on feedback from our initial post of what we considered enclosing, we changed a few items to be 2016, and among other items, we added this!

While it is a copyright infringement to do something that is licensed and says the "D" word, we CAN use the colors and the word "Magical".

We changed a few other items, too.

Use your free papers as examples to customers for what you can make for them, make sample pages/cards for your store, or sell them!

Remember - our items will never be found in Big Box stores, so you have the advantage!!! Make papers for local schools, events, cities, etc. 

We are honored to have you as clients and we hope you enjoy your packet!

All But The Travel Trade Show!

Are you participating in this

"Trade Show In A Box"??

WE ARE!

We have just been given the number of stores and are happy to hear that nearly 200 stores across the US signed up!

So, we are creating our papers to ship to you! We want them to be generic enough that a scrap or stamp store could use them; that they could be used in scrapbooking or Pocket Page style work; and we are trying to keep our colors neutral for you... These are a few of the designs that we are contemplating.

Let us know what you think and if you signed up, what would YOU like to receive? Maybe it's something we hadn't considered!!

NOTE! Styles, colors, papers may vary from what is shown here - these are merely possibilities. We haven't finalized our order yet.

So Sorry!!

I know that we have been really "Absent" from the blog lately - lots going one with moving to the new printer and just life in general.

But, if you are a store and are interested in placing an order but haven't ordered since June 2014 or before, you'll need a new password. 

Shoot us an email and we'll get that set up!

Here's a link to the new ordering site:

It's Calendar Season!!!

But there are SO FEW companies making papers

for the months of the years!!

SO MAKE YOUR OWN!!

You can bundle them in a set as a lower price (but higher price point) and sell them individually at the MSRP of $1.99 per sheet!

 

Here's one idea:

We're Open For Business!!!

Our online shopping is open again!!

There is a NEW link so delete your bookmarked ones!!

(The link is at the top right)

The system is the same except:

• Your password will need to be reset. Email me and I'll reset it: info@customscrapbookstuff.com

• All of our history is gone :(

But check it out!!

We're Back!!!

Well, sort of.

Some of the templates are buggy and it looks like everyone will need their password reset, but if you want to order -- and can be patient with us and report details of any issues you run into -- the link is back.

Please note! 

It is a new link so any old bookmarks you had will not work. Please reset them to the link to the right.

Also, none of us have our order history.
Sorry!!!

I cannot begin to express how disappointed I am that this happened. Changing of printers was DEFINITELY not what we had planned or hoped for, and never did they mention that we would have such difficulties.

Problems:

Any problems you encounter, please give us complete details:

Template Number

Text Box

Color Choice

etc.

If you need your password reset (which I fear everyone will), please send me an email. 

info@customscrapbookstuff.com.

I will reset it it as soon as I can but often it will be early in the morning or after 5pm pacific.

Thanks everyone for your patience!

Ordering

Just a reminder that our ordering Portal is down for hopefully a short period of time while we switch printers.

We will send out an email and update the blog when it is back online.

We thank you for your patience during this transition.

CHA Debrief Volume 3: One of Our Wedding Assortments

This is part of our wedding example set made with 

#1802 Elegance Left (left) and #922 Custom Stripe (right).

We used the stripe on an invitation, a thank you card, 

and an SRM pillow box party favor.

I'll be very honest with you... not a lot of stores have ordered the 

Elegance papers since we bought this company. 

But, I really feel it's because the thumbnail online was really not attractive.

We printed these samples and brought them to CHA with us and 

customers LOVED THEM!! They said that they have been 

searching for items like this!

The Elegance paper come in a left and a right.

 

You can put one name on one side and the other on the other side or do both the same.

You can change the color of the vine, each line of words independently, and the color of ruled lines (or choose no lines at all).

They make great guest sign ins for a wedding, and yes, you can scrapbook with it too!

We'll have some more samples to show you soon!!

Thanks for reading!
