On page 54 of our January issue we featured Louise Fortune's layouts using lacy cardstock, cut on the CraftRobo. If you're lucky enough to own a CraftRobo (or are extremely patient and skillful with a craft knife!) then you can download the templates that she used to make the designs on her 'eight' and 'numbers' layouts. These templates are in jpg format, which means that you will need to use the 'Auto Trace' feature of your CraftRobo software in order to turn them into CraftRobo files. Click on the links below to download the files.

Sarah's welly - one of our Best of British Scrapbooking winners!
Did you see the winning entries to Best of British Scrapbooking 2007? They're all featured in the January issue of ScrapBook inspirations - on sale now.
Sarah Veness, one of our two altered art winners, sent in her wonderful (and frankly, totally mad!) altered welly, drawing curious stares from all over the office. We loved it, but didn't have space to show it from every angle in the magazine. So here are a few extra shots:
Inside a seed packet is a tag with some of Sarah's journaling.
The Secret Garden mini book opens out to reveal flowery photos.
The other side of the boot. We love the flowers peeking from the top!
Locked behind the door to the kitchen garden...
The tool shed!
Make sure you get hold of a copy of the January issue to see all of our winners and to read the story behind Sarah's welly.
