Welcome to another issue of Simply Cards & Papercraft – we’ve pushed the boat out this
month to ensure we’re bringing you the best range of inspiration, with sneak peeks of some of the latest products.

First up, I can’t ignore this issue’s amazing stamp and stencil set – the Natural Beauty set is truly a go-to set for all-occasion crafting. Whether it’s combining the goodies to create clean and simple but striking designs or rolling up your sleeves and upping your skills, we really do have a ton of expert ideas to get you started. Turn to page 9 to and Nicky’s textured-filled designs, page 30 to find off-the-page projects from Mel Jess and page 60 to discover stunning cards from Tracey Rogers with a contemporary nod to mixed-media.

You’ll also discover a range of new releases – we’ve got product peeks from Spellbinders (page 78) and Colorado Crafts (page 54), as well as an inventive ideas feature (page 36) where we show you how to create a range of designs using one versatile die set!

This issue, we’re bringing you a masterclass that’s sure to impress. We demonstrate how to add the impression of dimension to your floral die-cuts using ink! Cathy Andronicou is on hand to lead you step by step through the process over on page 42.

We’ve also teamed up with Sizzix to bring you this issue’s Tried & Tested feature, where Ingrid Vichova has got busy using the brand-new Sizzix Effectz Craft Tool set (page 20).
