Once Upon a Time...

there was a chemist named John and a book editor named Camille who lived in beautiful Oregon. Camille spent most of her spare time creating scrapbooks that told of her quaint life in the Great Northwest. Until one day, John became weary of paying for all of Camille's "creative memories."

One day, during Camille's journeys to her hometown area (San Diego North County), she stumbled across a small scrapbook store named Elohim Memory Creations. On a whim, she left her name and phone number with the managers, should one day they decide to move on to other pastures. Six months later, John and Camille received the phone call that would change their lives forever.

Within one month, the decision had been made. The big move from Oregon to Oceanside was fast and furious. They remodeled, renamed, and reinvented the store which is now known as Ever After. Sixteen hour days, lots of hard work and dodging comments from family that they were certifiably insane, the couple beat all odds and are excited to celebrate their eighth anniversary as North San Diego County's leading scrapbook store.

A Little More History

Ever After was born in May of 1999. Owned by husband and wife team, John and Camille Akin, Ever After grew from a tiny 1200 sq ft scrapbook store to a mega 3600 sq ft scrapbook super store by May of 2001. A desire to have a dedicated workshop area and more room for shopping and for more supplies were two main factors for the store's relocation to its new mega site, expanding it to 7200 sq ft, making Ever After San Diego's largest scrapbook store.
