We've been super busy getting our April issue ready to go to press this week and we couldn't possibly wait until the on sale date to share it with you! So we've got a little sneak peek of what's to come in issue 111.

If you love your cards to have lots of sparkle and glamour, then you're going to love the brand new Hunkydory Shimmering Watercolours collection from Cardcraft Plus. The gorgeous range has Diamond Sparkles glitter encapsulated in varnish on the papers and toppers to assure that you won't lose any of the fabulous shimmer or shine.

Our friends over at Fantastic Ribbons have put together a fabulous bundle of papercrafting ribbon along with two lots of buttons, a bag of mixed pink tones and a brand new bright mixed one called harlequin. The set includes 14 rolls of ribbon in a mix of candy colours including spotty grosgrains, zesty satin-edged organzas in pink, lemon and lime-green and fabulous fine opal-wired shimmer ribbon.
