HELLO
of
Welcome to the OCTOBER edition
Hello and welcome to the October edition of Making Cards.
This month our free craft papers are a diverse set. I just love the Arty Animals collection, the moment I saw
the amazing artwork I couldn’t wait to see it transformed into cards. They are just so mesmerising and the
collection is suitable for men and women. The colours are vibrant and the subjects such fun. Our second set,
Classic Cameos, will appeal to those of you with more traditional tastes. Again this set features both male and
female silhouettes so is suitable for using on cards for women and those more difficult male makes. Thank
you to all of you who contacted me to tell me how much you enjoyed the landscape craft papers last month, it
has been lovely to see all your cards.
This edition contains a variety of cards by all your favourite contributors. Emma Williams has created a
beautiful set of cards featuring pretty poppies by IndigoBlu while Tracy Evans has created a trio of stunning
cards starring Tim Holtz’s Stampers Anonymous Runway set. I love Jackie Semark’s set of six cards using the
new Decades digi stamps by Saturated Canary. What a great idea for a set! If you like to colour and enjoy using
characters on your cards then check out the exclusive project for Making Cards from Acid Drop & Whatnots
on page 76 - some great characters!
I hope that those of you who took advantage of our special offer are enjoying your Christmas Special 2015
edition. We were so thrilled to give you all the free embossing folder, such a versatile design, the tutorials on
DVD and for the first time ever the craft papers in digital format also! You’ll be able to keep those fantastic
designs and use them over and over again for years to come! Regular Christmas projects will start in next
month’s ‘Christmas Edition’, a thirteenth edition this year for you lucky readers.
Happy
crafting!
Sally Jarvis,
Editor
