Oh my, we’re half way through January already! Seriously, where has the time gone? All of us at PPI have been uber busy since Christmas getting magazines out! My baby, Creative Cardmaking, went off to press on Tuesday and I think (even if I do say so myself!) that it looks fantastic! There are so many great features in there and the papers that have been designed by our very own Kay are truly scrumptious!! I’ll give you a few sneaks below so you can get an idea of what you can expect from issue 12 ………………..

These are some of the cards Kirsty Wiseman made using the free papers …………

and then there’s this little beauty that contains shampoo……

There are also cute animal/safari cards from Particraft’s Sue Wilson………

and then for all you foodies out there, Judith has come up trumps with her apple themed creations…….

I’m now working on both issues 13 of Creative Cardmaking and issue 3 of the Creative Cardmaking special edition. This will be my first time doing the special edition & I’m getting really excited about it as I have got Nitwits papers going into this issue as 1/2 of the bumper paper pack – more details to follow!!

I’m also off out for lunch today with fab designer Kirsty Wiseman which I’m really looking forward to as I haven’t seen her in ages. She’s been snowed in for the past few weeks and has got cabin fever to the extreme, so she can’t wait to get out from the confines of her home!!

Remember to pop along to our forum and get chatting with the members already in there – they’re a really friendly bunch and will make you feel really welcome.

I’d better crack on with some work now really – magazines don’t put themselves together do they?!!
