Our friends over at CrossStitcher have just brought out this fab new book that we think you’ll love! 

This bonus ship card is perfect for male birthdays and bon voyage cards, but can be easily adapted to suit any occasion. It's super quick and easy, making it great for last-minute cards. With summer (supposedly!) around the corner, there's no better time to start crafting this ship-shape card!

If there's one thing we card makers can't get enough of it's pretty papers! Now you can try some delicious new designs, for free, courtesy of Sizzix. This zesty collection of eight different designs is available when you hop over to their lovely blog. You'll find heaps of projects to inspire you too. Why not print out a set of these sunny papers to bring a bit of sunshine to your weekend crafting? We thought we'd experiment with different papers to see how they print out. Thin textured card will be first, then we want to try some vellum.

Have fun!
