Redlands Pride




We are trying out Type Pad, please click this link to follow us there.

Great customer service and an array of the latest acid-free products on the market have made All About Paper (formally Magic Moments Scrapbooks) the award-winning store that it is.

Proudly Brisbane's first dedicated scrapbooking store, we started off in Bloomfield Street in 2001 before moving to our new home at the beautiful Raby Bay Harbour.

As long standing local shopkeepers here in the Redlands area were proud to have been recognized with Redland Retail Business Achievement Awards. More recently international recognition was achieved as Scrapbooking Design University’s largest provider for Australia.

There are numerous factors that lead to these accolades - the first being superior service. The team at simply do not feel comfortable if a customer leaves the store with a new tool that they are not entirely confident in applying to their craft. Personal attention to customers is an aspect of this business that has led to many customers becoming special friends of the store.

There are many classes to choose from, for scrappers at any level of expertise. Beginners will excel to new heights in no time thanks to the small, intimate class sizes and hands-on approach of the trained qualified instructors. Customers interested in card making can also attend the special class dedicated to this paper craft, and dedicated scrapbookers will thrive on the all-day crops, midnight crops, specialist classes including heritage, altered art and mixed media.

All About Paper is in the hub of craft mania every Sunday, when the main street in Cleveland, Queensland, is closed to traffic for the Cleveland Craft Markets and stops for lunch at Raby Bay. People travelling from far and wide sample the goodies at the market, and then make their way to All About Paper to get a taste of the world's hottest craft at the moment. Many of them have had a taste, but they're just hungry for more!

So why not whet your appetite for scrapbooking and make your way to All About Paper in Cleveland, Queensland - you'll be making magic with your memories in no time!

Colour My World

onger
We are excited to announce our Kit Club will be resurrected by popular request from shopper’s looking for a creative way to budget their scrapbooking.

A festive theme of Colour My World came from being inspired watching all the colours of the world dancing at the Olympic opening ceremony which got the scrapbooker in me thinking about how colours inspire the pages we create.

Details: Every 2 months a new kit will be launched, showcasing the latest releases in a creative colour scheme and best of all - the individual piece retail price of $60 value will be packaged at $49.95.

To inspire you to make best use of the kit, a gallery of Design Team samples will be posted in the shop of cards, pages and off the page projects. Projects will be part of the class schedule and some will be included in the kit package as a lesson plan.

Advance orders are being taken for the September kit “Pink Posy” packed full of shades of Pink from Fairy Floss to Salmon, teamed with touches of Misty and Sky Blues. Please phone the shop to register your interest and hear more about the club discount.

Plans are underway for Colour My World members to submit their projects to the All About Paper gallery but we have not decided on the prize format. What do you think? Shall we give you the next Colour Kit for free or include your project in the next advertisement we have in one of the major scrapbooking magazines?

Enough rattling on from me, can you tell we are excited about Colour My World?

Let’s launch Colour My World with a give away.

Good Luck !
