Memories from Picture to Page Bendigo

What a great turn out we had at From Picture to Page Scrapbooking and Papercrafts Show, in Bendigo. We were at the Kangaroo Flat Primary School on 12 and 13 March, 2016. While it was quite hot on Saturday, and scrapbookers and crafters still come along to see the latest products, watch the amazing demonstration, do a make n take, and perhaps even do a mini class.

Many thanks to Jarrett Morgan who acted as our official photographer for the show.

And thanks to our retailers and traders who bring along their stock to show off to you. Our Victorian Papercrafts show would not be the same without them. While we may be the boutique Melbourne scrapbooking show, the hearts of our traders and crafters make this show such a delight to curate.

Plus a H-U-G-E thank you to YOU – our crafters, scrapbookers, papercrafters and mixed media artists. We need you to come and support our papercraft retailers. And a paper craft expo is such a great chance to see the products in real life, touch them, get your hands on them and ask questions.

Happy crafting,
Michelle
