What an AMAZING weekend of crafting we had at the Pakenham From Picture to Page papercraft show at the Pakenham Cardinia Cultural Centre, 21 & 22 May 2022. We welcomed 20 specialty retailers from across Victorian and New South Wales to celebrate two full days of craft classes and demonstrations (and SHOPPING!), covering card making, scrapbooking, art journaling, planning, mixed media and more!
A HUGE “thank you” to our crafters and retailers for supporting our boutique papercraft show – we LOVED seeing you in-person to watch the demonstrations, ask questions, learn new techniques and just generally share our enthusiasm for crafting with like-minded people!
Here are just a few of the highlights for the papercraft show:
