My love of Scrapbooking started when I was forced to go to a home scrapbooking class in order to support a friend. It grew when I concieved my only daughter on National Scrapbooking day (9 August 2001). From then on I needed to take millions of photos and even started teaching classes from my home.

Absolutely Scraptacular was formed in Johannesburg in 2003 by myself and Gillian Fleiser, who had the worst of it all, as we stored all our thousands of boxes of paper in her house! Gillian eventually got tired of not being able to sit on her sofa and decided to leave the company. Tom Goedecke (my wonderful father) was at a loose end... or so I like to believe – and bought Gillian’s share of the Company.

Jacob Phiri joined the Company as a driver and now owns shares not only in the Company but also in the hearts of so many of our clients – you gotta admit it – he’s wonderful!

We also have 2 wonderful reps in Vanessa Groenewald and Charlotte Crankshaw who provide outstanding service!

This year we are introducing a wonderful designer – Lee-Anne Fisher who is going to create stunning projects for our clients and will even come and teach them in your shops.

Absolutely Scraptacular’s promise - is to provide excellent products at an excellent price along with excellent service. We have sourced beautiful quality paper from Worldwin papers and Cardstock Warehouse and have endeavored to sell them at competitive prices so you can continue with the craft you love.

We really do try to provide a really efficient and friendly service and would welcome any feedback – be it good or bad, so we know if we need to do it better.

I hope you all love our paper as much as we do – and keep taking photos ... they are so much more than memories!
