I can’t believe we’re almost at a brand-new year already! Where has this year gone? The new year will be here before we know it, I’m sure! It has been so lovely to work with Crafter’s Companion on this spring edition of Crafter’s Inspiration. The kit has been so beautiful to work with and you can tell throughout the pages of this magazine that the Design Team have enjoyed working with it. Inside the box, you will find a jam-packed 68-page magazine, a floral wreath die, a 12-piece sentiment & image stamp set, a 5x5” flower stencil, a 6x4” floral embossing folder and a bumper 32-page paper and topper pack. There is so much to get you starting your new year crafting instantly.

Throughout this beautiful magazine, you’ll find inspiration on how to get the best from each piece in the kit, including beautiful shaped card fronts from Vanessa Hodgson on page 7 and clever clean & simple designs from Emma Grant-Holt on page 16. We have gorgeous paper techniques that you’ll want to try from Katarina McMahon on page 24, and Sarah Jackman Read shows us how to use one sketch template in three completely different ways on page 30.

Sarah Phelan shares how to get the most from the stunning flower stencil on page 35, and Mel Jess uses the different mediums to colour images and has created five clever ideas in our masterclass on page 40. If you’re looking for a special card for that special person, Lisa Plummer has made five shaker, tunnel and apertures cards for you to try on page 53!

We also catch up with Crafter’s Companion’s Supervising Coordinator, Lilly Fletcher, who tells us about her experience at Crafter’s Companion on page 48, and we also take a closer look at the Crafter’s Companion brand-new ColourBloom inkpads, that can be used on all of your spring designs and beyond.

Before I go, don’t miss our exclusive diary from Sara Davies on page 14 and her fabulous bunny wreath, which will be a perfect addition to your spring décor! With so much to do, I shall leave you to craft up a storm. Don’t forget to send me your makes using the kit, and tag crafterscompanion and craftworldhq on Instagram so we can see your makes using it!
