PC 101

Published by Julia Stainton at 7:05 am under Card Designs, Stampin Up, published designs

I’m really excited about this new publication from PaperCrafts Magazine. PC101 is one of my favorite monthly columns in their magazine. Tomorrow PaperCrafts is releasing a special issue called PC101 and it is filled with great techniques and ideas in the same format as the PC101 monthly column. I am especially excited about this publication as it was the first time I’d been assigned a project for PaperCrafts and I actually have eight projects as part of this issue. If you like great ideas for products and great papercrafting techniques…this issue is for you. If you’d like a copy of this issue…you should be able to find it at your local craft store or order a copy on-line at PaperCrafts Magazine.

In Those Times

Out of the projects I designed for this special issue…I wanted to share this one here with you. The jks-in-those-times-close.jpgfeature of this assignment was to use “found” items as part of your project. I was to find an object and create an encouragement card. My very sweet aunt lent me this gold watch that was hers and I worked it together with this sentiment that I just love. In those times I can’t seem to find God, I rest in the assurance He knows how to find me.

On that note…have a fabulous day!

Edited to add…this sentiment is a stamp that is available from Stampin Up. For the rest of the supply list…please see the publication. Thanks for your interest! :)

    I love the card, the vintage feel and the sentiment is suburb. It this a stamp or your own word art?

    How exciting! I love to see your work in magazines and I look forward especially to this one. What a thrill to be asked to make such a big contribution to a special issue. I just had my first card published (what a thrill!) in the current issue of Crafts ‘n’ Things and I can only imagine that it must be very rewarding to be asked to do eight projects for PC. Well done! I hope to find this magazine. Congratulations!

    PS This card is stunning and I love the watch! I love how you make vintage cards with a fresh feel. You’re one of a kind :-)

    What a gorgeous card! Congrats on another beautiful publication. Is this sentiment a stamp or did you generate it yourself? It’s wonderful. Your work is superb!
