Now in its 9th year, Survivor Crop 2010 promises an experience you won’t soon forget!
Ever After Scrapbooks invites you to participate in a unique opportunity to help raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness.
In true Survivor Island theme, you and your friends will be cast away for 24 hours on an island with only scrapbooking supplies! It won’t be the lap of luxury as you compete in survival mode on Big Survivor Island, but we do promise an adventure pass with lots of fun and exciting events during the 24 hours, make and takes, games, raffles and prizes for everyone! Do you have what it takes to be the Ultimate Survivor or part of the Ultimate Surviving Island?
When: October 16-17, 2010 from Saturday at 9 a.m. to Sunday at 9 a.m.
Ever After Scrapbooks opens early at 8 a.m. to get you fueled and energized with breakfast, games and shopping. A light breakfast is served at the store from 8-10 a.m. As you arrive at the store, you will be assigned an arrival time for Survivor Island. Plan ahead to arrive with your island-mates. A wake-up scavenger hunt and a morning goody bag you don’t want to miss will await you at Ever After. Stay and play and enjoy the camaraderie and food. Then, you’ll head on over to the event site, usually just minutes from the store! (Last year it was two doors away and the castaways loved it!)
Where
Near Ever After Scrapbooks, in Vista/Oceanside. Last year’s facility was over 6,000 square feet of space, so you’re guaranteed lots of cropping space!
When you arrive at Big Survivor Island, your hostess will give you event information and greet you. You will receive your official Survivor 2010 T-shirt. We will officially kick off the event at 12:00 noon with a grand hoopla! Be ready to dance in the aisles and raise the roof!
Why
To raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness, Research, and Education. All proceeds to benefit the San Diego Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
Cost
$110 per person, non-refundable. If needed, you can transfer your fee to another individual should you not be able to attend.
Note: Each attendee is required to raise a minimum of $125 in donations for Komen for the Cure. Yes, this is a competition. So, we deem one individual “The Ultimate Survivor” — the individual who has raised the most money separate for his/her team. There is also an award for team effort and so you may vie for “The Ultimate Surviving Island.” This is the team who has collectively raised the most money separate from the ultimate survivor. Make sure to check out our $500Club, a fundraising goal level that’s easy to achieve and comes with great rewards!

A little history lesson…
Today i am going to give you a little history lesson of how i started to scrap. I was a lonely newlywed who had lost my cute new husband to pre med classes, and was bored silly, living in a new country with no friends or family. One night we had a ladies night at church… and this sweet girl had all kinds of scrapbooking stuff…i knew i had to have it. I had always had my smelly sticker collection, and kept all things of special memories in a large scrapbook, but had never seen all these cute things that I could add to it! I asked the girl where she had picked up the supplies and she said "Pebbles in my Pocket." Hmmmm….what was this, a few more questions and next day I had driven up the hill from Provo, to Orem, and found myself in this quaint white house that had been converted into a small shoppe. The cutest place, with homemade lollipops that were made by an old man who lived near by…lollipops of all flavors, the best one being either root beer, or oreo cookie….heaven on earth. I was hooked, and for the remainder of our time at university in the small Utah town, I would go to the shoppe every Friday from 10 am til dinner time, and scrap my days away…then the duke, {my cute husbands nick name} would come home, and we would do our groceries, and then go to a midnight movie…that was my Friday! Such fun memories…. anyways… to make a very long story short…Pebbles has grown over the years, the shoppe is still on the cute corner, and a while back they came out with thier own new lines, and now we have some of thier new releases!
We have the "New Arrival" lines…both for girl and boy. They are so cute, here are some darling idea's that were on the blog, www.pebblesinmypocket.blogspot.com. The blog has so many cute things on it, lotsa yummy projects made with these new cuties! You can see that even if you don't have a brand new bouncing baby, this paper can make just about anything look cute!
