“An Album to Treasure”
On Saturday 5 May we held a special workshop
to mark the National Scrapbook Day.
All eight ladies who attended have enjoyed making albums from the kits. Here are the photos of the sample album we made beforehand. All our customers made their own albums with slight alterations according to their imagination!

Well done, everyone!

If you have never tried scrapbooking and perhaps a little bit afraid to try,
or simply don’t know where to start just pop in for one of our Friday sessions
to look at what other crafters are doing.
Honestly, you need fewer tools to make an album than you need for card-making. Just one requirement: you must have photos!  
The next Scrapbooking Fridays at Grafton Crafts:
15 & 22 June, 13 & 20 July.  
See you soon!
