You're in for a treat with the May issue of Papercraft inspirations! We've got a double free gift of a pack of eight colouring pencils in gorgeous summer shades and a Colour & Cut stack of designs by Gilliant Flint. Gillian's illustrations are adorable and you can enjoy colouring in all the designs without the designs without the need to stamp them out first. 

As well as amazing free gifts, we've also got a super-cute Magnolia stamp project by Sarah Hurley, and also lots of top techniques to try, including 10 clever ways to use flock powders and a masterclass on machine embossing. And just when you thought we couldn't pack anything else in, we've also got fun and funky carnival-themed free papers by Jenny Ellory! Enjoy the issue! 

The May issue of Papercraft inspirations was packed with fabulous cards for all occasions! For full instructions for making all of the fab cards with these templates, pick up issue 112 of Papercraft inspirations.
