  • 5/5 from Lara Ruddle, attended May 2026: Lovely class. Made 6 different cards. Fun mother daughter activity.
  • 5/5 from Dawn Williams, attended Nov 2023: Kathryn was great, had a lot of knowledge and patience and the end result of coming away with some fantastic cards was just perfect finish for the day
  • 5/5 from Jennifer Greblo, attended Nov 2023: Loved the dove card the most. Small group numbers allowed us to have very attentive support from the teacher. Great materials and a variety of techniques explored. Lunch was sensational
  • 5/5 from Maureen McIlquham, attended May 2023: Really enjoyed this workshop. Kathryn took us through a number of techniques for card making and was generous in sharing her knowledge and time. It was great for a beginner to work out which techniques appealed to me. The Old Auction House is a great venue to hold workshops - the team are very helpful and the business stocks most of the materials if you want to continue projects at home. The workshop fee includes all materials and a delicious lunch and coffee. This is the second workshop I have attended at the Old Auction House in Kyneton and I highly recommend it and this workshop.
  • 5/5 from Samantha West, attended May 2023: The Venue was fantastic, There were plenty of supplies for everyone. The Teacher was fantastic, and very knowledgeable and the items we made were fantastic. I learnt loads of new techniques. Really good value for money. Well worth every cents. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and happy to help if needed.
  • 3/5 from Susan Briggs, attended May 2023: I thought that Katherine's presentation was very good. I disliked the fact that the room and tables were too small and cluttered. I often could not find my pieces that I was working on. Also the fact that we had to wait to use the equipment because there were not enough to go around e.g. cutters, embossing machines etc. For the price we paid, I would have expected a lot better. The good points were that the lunch provided was very good and Katherine's knowledge was excellent. I would have liked a handout on different types of glues available and how to use them and mixed media ideas. Staff in the shop were very friendly and helpful. Items in the shop were varied and wonderful. I hope this is seen as constructive criticism and hopefully room to improve. Would I do another course with you Of course. Thank you.

Kathryn has loved to create since Kindergarten, she has turned that passion away from finger painting and now spends her time on Paper Crafts.

She first discovered scrapbooking at age 12 after attending a mother/daughter class, then when planning her own wedding she dove back into scrapbooking with a vengeance. Along the way, she discovered a love for paper arts of all kinds and now can be found covered in glue and ink a lot of the time.
When not busy being a mum Kathryn runs regular workshops in Bendigo and surrounds, teaching Scrapbooking and Card making techniques so everyone can preserve their memories for future generations and share handmade kindness through paper crafting.
