Hello!
Welcome to our April issue!
Trish Latimer
Editor
Our April issue seems to be full to bursting with projects I just want to have a
go at… hopefully I’m not the only one!
Long time Craft Stamper team member Magda Polakow has just launched her
own line of wonderfully quirky rubber stamps. I love them, and think you will
too! Check out the fab project Magda has made for us on page 40.
We are welcoming new Craft Stamper family members this month! We
love the way Debbie von Grabler-Crozier uses inks, and we’re lucky enough
this month to have a blending tutorial from the lady herself! Have a look on
page 6, then have a go yourself! Julie Ann Lee is renowned for her amazing
assemblage work, and if you have a look on page 14 you will see why. This
absolutely wonderful storybook style canvas project simply blew us away!
Combining amazing texture, along with her signature collaged icons, this piece
is simply not to be missed.
In this issue, we also have some gorgeous altered matchboxes from Riikka
Kovasin, some beautiful cards by Chris Dark, and some amazing makes using
tiny wooden houses in our 3D challenge gallery. Lots for you all to experiment
with, and don’t forget, I would love to see what you create! Email me, or share
on our Facebook page!
Have a wonderfully crafty month everyone!
