Simply Cards & Papercraft 248 - Out NOW!
This issue’s Watercolour Wonders stamps and waterbrush are our latest festive gift to you – and as the icing on the cake, we’re absolutely thrilled to team up with the team at Colorado Craft Company to bring you the stunning complementary sentiments.
We’ve gone all out to ensure that you have the most stunning inspiration to get you started too, with inky creations from Nicky on page 9, gift wrap ideas from Sarah Jackman Read on page 30, and wonderfully clean and simple watercolour designs on page 60 from Vanessa Hodgson.
At this time of year, new releases come thick and fast and this issue we’re showcasing the latest paper collection from The Paper Boutique on page 65, whilst Pete Hughes showcases Sizzix festive dies on page 74, and of course we’re demonstrating the brand-new Gemini II machine from Crafter’s Companion in this issue’s Tried & Tested feature.
We’re also keen to continue to build your skills, and this issue you’ll find a ton of step-by-step guides to an exciting range of techniques. Turn to page 42 to find our masterclass using Pink Ink Wax Lyricals and page 56 guides you through how to make a one-of-a-kind 3D Christening keepsake. If that’s not enough, turn to page 50 to follow a guide to creating your own festive décor.
With all of this, plus the usual competitions, news, shopping and giveaways, I think I’ll leave you to it.
Happy cardmaking!
