Years ago a friend came over with her scrapbook of a trip she had taken to Disney. At the time it was just some photos on paper backings with a few souvenirs of the trip glued in.  Still, the idea and hobby grabbed me.  It didn't take long for scrapbooking to become a passion. I wanted to tell everyone.   Who could refuse to take up such an interesting and rewarding hobby?  I offered classes at my local grocery store and they started to generate quite a buzz.

So now that I hooked all these people,  there was just one problem.  No one carried any real scrapbooking supplies. Certainly none like we saw in the magazines.  So I made some calls, ordered some product for myself and the girls, and before I knew it, filled not only the demand but my entire basement as well!   2 years later as the hobby began to really take off here in Montreal , it became obvious the basement idea would not work any longer, particularly since at any one time there would be up to 40 people in my house for crop nights!  My poor family!

So….. Scrapbook Centrale was born!
