Freshly Rapt In Paper



Seeing how everyone uses Rapt In Paper in their own style is really exciting.
We all have our own style and the best part of Rap In Paper is that because all the hard parts of measuring and scoring and templates for paper cutting has been dealt with you can concentrate on the fun stuff and decorate to your heart's content.
This is an example of the Octagon Box used as a little memory box, complete with velvet strawberries on top.

Exploding Box



We have had lots of requests for a tutorial on the exploding boxes that have been on show. Rapt In Paper's box makes the process pretty quick and simple.
Assemble the box to point 6, when you stop at covering the inside floor of your box, because that is where the exploding part fits in.


Cut (2) two pieces of cardstock
10 ½ inches long
measure at 3 ½ inches wide but cut one piece inside the line and one piece outside the line so one is a smigden bigger
The smaller strip fits inside the larger

Score at 3 ½ inch intervals = a strip with 3 x 3 ½ squares







Glue the centre square of the smaller strip ontop of the centre of the slightly larger strip


To add even more layers of fold outs, cut more 3 ½ strips and gluing to the outer squares to expand your box to all kinds of extremes.

Looking forward to your gallery submissions, the best part of Rapt In Paper products is with the chipboard base and easy assembly you can concentrate on the fun part, the decorating !

Reports from Brisbane Scrapbook Expo



The long weekend was a busy one for many happy scrappers.

Rapt In Paper put in a great showing at the expo, before the doors were opened to the public a publisher pulled another project off the shelf for future publication but the public sure did like what they saw.

As we said over and over again when demonstrating the kits, it is as easy as all that, peel and stick, no need to measure.

For the retailers who visited, please place your orders soon to ensure quick delivery of stock. Our current stockists who would like to be linked off of our blog space, should forward a link to your internet page, we like to let everyone know where to find Rapt In Paper in their own local area.

We are building up a gallery of everyone’s creations with the Rapt In Paper range, be sure to forward photos of what you have been up to with Rapt In Paper to be included in the prize draw competition.
