Lynne’s Links ~ Johnson Crafts

This is something a bit different for our website, but it is a great way of keeping your photos together and would make a lovely gift.

I took one home to have a go and found it very simple to follow the instructions.  There is a link to the supplier’s website to download the free software - this was very straightforward.  You then open your photo file and select the photos you wish to use.  Drag them into the page layout you have selected, add text if you wish, load the paper provided into your printer and when you are happy with your choices - click print!  The paper folds easily in half and is then slotted into the album provided.  I now have a lovely album of photographs of a very special anniversary in Venice.

We are currently offering the Photo Book at half price.

We have just added a new range of products by Framecraft. It is just a small selection at the moment, but we will be adding more over the coming weeks.

There are lots of accessories to show off your own cross stitch designs, such as keyrings, rulers, paperweight, handbag mirror and a door finger plate. These would all make great presents and will not take too long to stitch.

There is a set of 6 coasters with butterfly designs, available individually. 12 miniature boxes feature cross stitch zodiac designs, and would make an unusual container for a small jewellery gift.

The range also includes Chart Sets, Christmas cards and a selection of cards for various celebrations, including a wedding card complete with 2 rings.

This is a great bag from DMC for organising all your threads, needles, scissors and other accessories.

Designed especially for needlecraft projects ‘on the go’, it will fit easily into a suitcase if you are planning to do some stitching on holiday.

Size approx. 9″ square (closed). The travel bag includes 3 mini file inserts and compartments for all your accessories (not included).
