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!

Step by Step
1
This clever organiser would be the perfect place to squirrel away your crafty receipts or wish lists so you are always super organised.
2
Keeping the base section of a large Papermania bag folder over, trim the main part of the bag with scalloped scissors so that it protrudes about 3cm. Trim a panel of the spotty patterned paper to fit inside the gap between the base of the bag and the main part. Glue onto the bag and then glue the gap closed at the top and bottom to make a pocket.
3
Decorate the front of the pocket with the blue butterfly patterned paper, a cut scalloped border and a torn strip of paper to the left hand side. Collage some die-cut and trimmed paper elements to the right hand edge. Add an Anita’s white peel off sticker.
4
Trim the decoupage character from the sheet and assemble using 3D foam pads between the layers. Add Tatty to the right hand side. Add a greeting sticker.
5
Dice cut the smallest scalloped circle shape several times from patterned paper and place 4 in a row face down on the table. Glue pink ribbon on top and then fold the shapes in half sandwiching the ribbon in half. Secure across the top of the pocket with a glazed brad at each end.
6
Pop out some of the tags die-cuts and add ribbon to the top. Tuck into the pocket.
7
Cut a large divider tag to fit in the main pocket of the organiser. Wrap an oval of paper around the middle of one side of the card divider and add a brad to secure.
