Creative Stamping 99 is on sale now with a beautiful selection of botanical images themed around bees. Get buzzy with your 30-piece stamp set featuring designs from Sentimentally Yours, using your stencil to create themed backgrounds and layered bees in an instant! We have expert stamping inspiration and step-by-step tutorials to stretch your stamping skills.

We start the issue with beautiful cards for women, in Stamping style on page 10, where Teresa Morgan focuses on the floral elements in the set. In our Technique feature on page 30, Vanessa Hodgson showcases the versatility of the stencil, making bees and backgrounds in seconds.

Every crafter loves a hexagon, and if you don’t yet have some dies to work with your stamps, check out my Stretch your stash feature on page 50, and I may convince you. Hexagons work brilliantly with the honeycomb theme, so we’ve teamed up with CraftStash to bring you some special discounts on those!

Sam Calcott is on hand for masculine makes on page 18, with her mix of kinetic and interactive makes, and we have brilliant off-the-page ideas from Mel Jess on page 77, using the bee theme to make fabulous on-trend gifts and goodies. If clean and simple is your bag, check out Ingrid Vichova’s fab creations on page 62

We have an interview plus the latest releases from Phill Martin and an exclusive reader giveaway on page 28. Look out for new releases from Polkadoodles, as well as Chloe’s Creative Cards and Clever Prints, plus expert tutorials for colouring kraft cardstock and making your own watercolour – plenty to keep you busy – or can I say buzzy!

As usual, we have brilliant competitions and giveaways and look out for discounts throughout this issue too.
