Holy Scrap!

Sunstar Mall

I used to keep a notebook with a lot of stuff in it.  Anything, actually.  A table napkin from a recently visited restaurant with a group of friends, or a swatch of a gift wrapper from a friend's birthday present.  Sometimes I even put a newspaper clipping of a very good article which I wanted to keep, or an advertisement of the mobile phone of my dreams.  All this in a small school notebook from the previous year.

But not anymore...

Scrapbooking Starter Kit

Right now, I can start scrapbooking with a starter kit like this.  This scrapbooking starter kit is for only Php 150.00.  I got this at the Pandayan Bookshop in Sunstar Mall, Sta. Cruz, Laguna.

If you love scrapbooking, this will be a good start for you.  And with this starter kit, you and your friends can form a group and join the Pandayan Bookshop's "Bayanihan sa Barkada Scrapbooking Contest" which will be up until December 10, 2010.

So, go and get your scrapbooking starter kit at the Pandayan Bookshop, start scrapbooking, and join the contest which will give you and your friends the chance to win as much as Php 15,000.00.

Let me share with you the contest mechanics.
