DOCRAFTS CREATIVITY MAGAZINE ISSUE 33 MAY/JUN 2012
This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Take a rectangle of white cardstock measuring approx 15 x 10 cm, and stamp randomly with the butterfly stamp, inked again with Papermania brush markers. Blend the colour from the centre of the wings using a wet paint brush. Hand draw a black line around the outside of the panel. Mount onto pink, then black core’dinations cardstock.
