About Us

Memories and More is the largest scrapbooking and rubber stamping store in Kelowna, BC. It was first established as an online business in 2001. Gina Carpenter saw the need for this type of business in a world she herself enjoyed, one that included creative arts and crafts. With a formal education in marketing and merchandising she felt the desire to open a storefront. In 2005 the first Memories and More retail outlet was opened at 1870 Byland Rd. in West Kelowna, BC.

Now in its fifth year of operation, this destination scrapbooking and rubber stamping store has become the creative arts and crafts center of the Okanagan. With over 2500 square feet of products, a bright workshop for crop nights and classes, it is a must see for locals and visitors alike.

As one of the most talented paper crafters in BC, instructor Maresa Welke's classes run several times a month and fill up quickly. Hazel Sebastion teaches our popular ABC's of scrapbooking, hosts the crop nights and Club Kid classes. Guest instructor, Annette Isbestor, has also joined us and teaches a monthly class that is always a hit with her students. We are very pleased to announce that Tawnecia Tai will be joining the staff at Memories and More. Along with her background in customer service, she is has a lot of natural creative ablility!

Storefront operating hours from 9:30am to 5:30pm Monday through Saturday, (except holiday Mondays), and Sundays from 12:00pm to 4:00pm give the arts and crafts public access to the latest products available seven days a week.

Customers visiting from all over Canada and beyond have been clamouring for the products and service provided by Memories and More and we are now back online giving them what they want, the greatest selection of products for stampers, cardmakers and scrapbookers in one place.
