Love Birds

Start thinking about Valentine's Day early this year using the free pretty birds themed downloads I designed for this month's Papercraft Inspirations magazine.

Fancy Rosette maker and Milkshakes!

Issue 164 of Papercraft Inspirations magazine this month has milkshake themed papers and cards I designed with pinwheels and fun toppers like bananas and milk bottles. I LOVED designing this set, it's such a lovely theme and the papers are so versatile they can be used for all sorts! The papers are free to download here.

Also free with this month's mag is a rosette maker which can make butterflies, hearts and wheels, so a useful tool to have in your kit!

Watercolour

This month's Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine (March Issue 128) is out now with a set of watercolour style bonus papers that I designed with bottles, vases and flowers.
