Press Release: Boxer Acquires Filp Flop Fasteners

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BOXER SCRAPBOOK PRODUCTIONS ACQUIRES FLIP FLOP FASTENER PRODUCT LINE

Tualatin

,

OR

(November 20, 2006) -- Boxer Scrapbook Productions has announced their acquisition of the Flip Flop Fasteners product line from Destination Scrapbook Designs.  The acquisition was completed this week, and Boxer will begin selling the product immediately.

Flip Flop Fasteners are clear, archivally-safe poly fasteners used to create moving elements on a scrapbook page, without adding any bulk or weight. The product was a finalist in the 2005 Craftrends Magazine Awards of Excellence for the adhesive category.

“Flip Flop Fasteners will be an excellent addition to our line of products,” says Angie Warhurst, co-owner of Boxer Scrapbook Productions.  “We started using them in conjunction with some of our products during classes and workshops, and wanted to be able to offer them to our customers.  We have had an on-going friendship with Destination Scrapbook Designs, and because we attend more consumer-oriented shows than they do, we offered to acquire the line to get better distribution and consumer awareness for the product.  Once a scrapper uses them, they become a regular tool in their scrapbooking efforts.”

Boxer Scrapbook Productions will offer Flip Flop Fasteners as part of their product offerings at the CHA show in

Anaheim

,

California

, January 28-31, 2007.  The company is owned by Vicki and Angie Warhurst, and was formed in 2001.  All of the company’s products are sold direct to retail stores, both nationally and internationally.

Please visit CHA booth #3376 to see Flip Flop Fasteners, and other new products!
