Kaiser Craft Hybrid Projects

I am thinking Christmas. Yep. I am wanting to do some easy, meaningful gifts with my digital scrapbooking skills. I have wanted to find out where oh where everyone purchases those cute little hybrid books to complete and set out to investigate the other day.

I have a series of blog posts ready to share with you on what I have learned, so won't you come along and learn with me? I will be sharing some links for you over the coming days.

One of my first finds was the inspiration at Little Dreamer Designs. They utilize Kaisercrafts books. So I set out to find where oh where I could purchase these items.

"with love by Mushy" is an awesome blog full of hybrid inspiration. When you get to the bottom of the page, be sure to look for the "previous posts" link to continue the ooohs and ahhhs!

Visit the Little Dreamer Designs gallery and you will be sure to want to join me in getting into hybrid! You can watch their blog for hybrid projects as they do have templates available in their store.

I found the Kaiser Craft albums for sale online at Camera World.

I also found them available for sale online at Ritz Camera. Here is a nice page with ideas and inspiration.

Both of these stores I have heard of before and I believe to be reputable. I am always careful buying online only from well established stores. I am sure to make a purchase soon!


On the official Kaiser Craft website, I found a page of Project Ideas.

On the official website it also mentions a magazine which appears to only be available at scrapbook stores that carry their products.

I found last weekend that the closest store was about an hour from my home, but I would be driving right by it to a marching band competition! So, we prepared and left home early enough. The store was out in the country down a dirt lane, but the husband and wife team were very nice.

I found the "magazine" which did not seem to be much of a magazine. It would be better called a pamphlet as it had so few pages. Many of the products are under a Kaiser Workshop product category and the name is found on the cover.


However, the pages inside did carry some great information and greatly detailed instructions, so I was happy to find it.


The owner of the store did not carry many of the board books which I was looking for, unfortunately, so I will need to make an order online. I did purchase some items there and I will be sharing those with you over the coming days.

The owner mentioned to me that as long as I bought the chipboard at her store, she could cut it into and shape (similar to those sold my Kaiser Crafts). I thought that was a great idea, but did not have time to stay.

I thought it was such a great idea that I would mention it to you. If you know of anyone locally that has a machine that cuts, you might want to ask to tap into that resource for hybrid projects.

I have some more links to share with you, but if you know of places online to by mini hybrid board books or tag books, please leave a comment and I will share them all in upcoming posts.
