Free Templates and Printable Paper Patterns

I went to Borders today and picked up two card making magazines from the UK. Why is it that the US doesn't offer all of the freebies that UK magazines offer to their readers?! Both magazines had free papers, die-cuts, stickers, and additional freebies of glitter gel pens and dry embossing templates! I realize that it costs a bit more, but at least I am building my collection as I am attempting to remake the examples in your magazine! While I do complain about this, I know that at these prices I am only able to purchase a few copies a year to work with my budget. Okay, I'll stop whining now. lol

The reason why I am bringing this up is because I am reading through the November issue of PaperCraft Inspirations and I see that their website: http://www.papercraftinspirationsmagazine.co.uk/, offers free templates (although some you may not understand how to use unless you match it up to the guide within the specific issue) and patterned paper that you may print out. I am directing this at the person who scraps or makes cards partially or fully digital. Just click on the links on the left and save whatever interests you and your collection of goodies. =)

Holidays are Coming!

This is a card I made last year for my friend, Jenny.  The snowman was taken from these Inkadinkado clear stamps set and although it is hard to see, the snowman was wet embossed with black powder. The wreath of snowflakes was created from Cuttlebug die cuts and the dots on the bottom right, inner circle were dry embossed using a Cuttlebug embossing folder. Pearl-colored beads, glitter glue, and rhinestones top off the embellishing finishes.
