Maggie and Kay have put their first three videos entitled 'From Cover to Cover' onto YouTube giving help to the beginner on 'How to Cut Greyboard,' 'Understanding Shims' and 'How to find the Grain and Make the Cover of a Book.'

…Coolkatzcraft is featuring on Hochanda this Thursday (29th) at 8am & 12 noon on the Oakwood Archer shows. You will find it on the TV schedule under 'Make it with Maggie'. Featuring will be our very first “From Start to Finish” kit from the range. This one is a 2 in 1 project with a Roll-Top Box and Album.

This example made up by Yvonne in our Design Team is gorgeous I hope you will agree! It is made up in Fab Scraps papers and is the first box and book project that Yvonne had attempted - looking forward to the next one Yvonne!

I love the mauve but you could do it to match your theme for your Christmas decorations or for a present for the person who has everything! I am sure that they would appeciate it more if you had made it for them!

Some greyboard Christmas shapes by Maggie - Kay has been playing! The greyboard which will be available also is in the background in this picture...

We will also be featuring cardmaking/scrapbooking stamps and here is an example which will be available in the coming weeks..

Please visit our shop and you can see the Roll-top Box both with a drawer and with the book that I have been featuring. There is also a Mini Album, a Foldover Album and an 8" X 8" Album kit aswell as card, tape and magnets all suitable for making up our kits.

What a lovely shabby chic project this is! This box was made by June, a member of the Design Team who hadn't made one before! There you go - you can give it a go too!

The shop is not fully there yet but the images are up and it is only a matter of days now - better get your Christmas List written - there are some kits that would make crafty Christmas presents for you and your friends.

This box has been made by Kay using Kaisercraft papers for saving recollections from a summer holiday. You could do it for Easter, a half term, a wedding, graduation, baby's first birthday - the opportunities are endless... It has a book which has sections inside it - these have been used for lovely big pictures but you could also do some journaling on the pull-out red dividers or put more souvenirs in them? Why not take a trip to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdrtxIBih0U and see this project with some photos in it?
