I really can’t believe I’m bringing you this Christmas issue from John Next Door already! Where does the time go? I’m pleased and excited to bring this premium magazine to you, packed with ideas and inspiration to make and create using the included Christmas kit. Inside the box you’ll find 17 image and sentiment stamps, a co-ordinating 6x6” embossing folder, a 9-piece die set and a 92-element papers and topper pack. Inside this 68-page magazine, you’ll find 69 fabulous designs made using the elements in the kit, plus a sneak peek at some exciting new releases from John Lockwood and a couple of back to basics features too.

The highlights of this issue include; a technique-building guide on using the dies to emboss on page 8, some fabulous gift and wrapping designs on page 13, some clever ways to get the most from the tag die on page 18, a masterclass in masking techniques on page 24 and some absolutely amazing on-trend ideas on page 30.

Also, in this issue we have some wonderful paper techniques from Jackie Trinder on page 36, some fantastic heat-embossed makes from Glenda Hall on page 42 and some beautiful mixed-media projects from Art Angel on page 64.

We also love the fabulous sneak peek that John has given us at his Christmas releases on page 39, plus we take a look at his days on TV on page 53.

There is also the chance to win a place on an exclusive John Lockwood workshop in our competition on page 23, plus John’s top picks of a variety of products on page 46.
