Craft Stamper December Issue 2011



How time flies!

It's time for the December issue of Craft Stamper already.



I am very pleased to say I have a super-cheap-make article in this issue using newsprint and the most recent additions to my range of stamps over at Stampotique. Of course, you could use any stamps at all that you own, but I thought it would be perfect to use the new ones as the gentle nature of them appealed to me with the colours I chose at the time (along with one or two old faves such as Bee that you've no doubt spotted).

I'm not allowed to reveal full images of the cards I made to place inside the wrap, but can show the whole item as its on the top left hand side of the cover!! :0))))



For the stamps and the magazine please pop over to Merly Impressions or Happy Daze.

I hope you enjoy the magazine if you manage to grab a copy. Lots of great ideas in there. To mention a few of my favourites from the quick glance I have managed to have so far...
Joanne Wardles Crafty Individuals houses (the kite card is inspirational!!)
Trish's snowflakes...very atmospheric. As always, Helen's stunning use of colour. Jeans vintage image pendants (looking even more fab with the soft pink rose setting) There are also some amazing reader's contributions this month...I spotted Sam Read's Moon Girl piece (awwwwwwww...and more so when I read the words alongside it), Jannet Blays cake (how long did that take??!!) and Anne Mullan's stunning Dream piece.

And thats just skimming the surface!! Best you order a copy, eh?

I got CS magazine today too and your card 'jumped' off the cover page - Like the above post - I totally agree, your work is instantly recogniseable.

I have the bee stamp, so there is really no excuse for me to not have a go - I'll have to improvise with the others. It really is a good issue this month - nice Christmassey projects too.

congrats on being a cover girl again. I'm looking forward to seeing your article. Love the colours on the cover of this issue, definitely one that I would pick up of the shelf, so classy.
And thanks for the lovely comment about my article. I'm so glad that you like the kite card.
