After 5 years of participating and teaching Creative Memories and Stampin Up! clases, and being active in local and personal Scrap- booking, Kellie decided she wanted to open her own Scrapbook store.
It was a big decision to leave the comfort of her State job and venture into the world of retail entrepreneurship, but Kellie never wavered once her mind was convinced she could do it.
She opened Scrappin' Essentials in March of 2006 and has loved every day since.
Kellie's store is known as the friendliest place in town. People love to just stop in and get a smile. Her work room always has someone working in it. They just like to scrap at the store where it's a happy place and free of distractions.
Kellie talks about all her friends from the store constantly and how she wishes she could do so much more for them to repay all they do for her.
Kellie is continually offering classes and functions at the store. See our Calendar and Creative Corner pages to see what's coming up. And please stop in whenever you can to see what's new in Scrapbooking.
