crafts: Say Hello To Spring!

SAY HELLO TO SPRING WITH OUR MARCH/APRIL ISSUE!

PCC #169 March 4, 2010

I always look forward to spring! Besides celebrating a birthday in March, I love watching the flowers blossom, as the days get longer (and warmer!). I also look forward to our March/April issue every year. It's a great reminder that winter can't last forever.

In our new March/April issue, we're celebrating brides and babies! Whether you need to congratulate the happy couple or new parents or send a note of thanks yourself, our "Thanks & Congrats" feature has just the happy inspiration you need.

And while April may be full of rain showers, we'll show you plenty of projects that shimmer and shine, to brighten even the rainiest days. We'll also show you how to create amazing one-of-a-kind projects using just three items in your stash. And if those trendy trees have you under their spell, you won't want to miss our "Lovely as a Tree" feature.

Purchase your copy of our March/April 2010 issue before March 17th and you'll get 20% off the issue. Click here to get your copy — just enter promo code SPRING20 at checkout.

Here's to New Beginnings!

FLOWER POWER AT CKC

With Spring right around the corner, CK Scrapbook Conventions wants to make sure to shower you with Flower Power. Since flowers are all the rage right now you're going to love making your own! Join us for Fabulous Flower Techniques, a class where our focus will be learning 4 ways to create fabulous handmade flowers from a variety of papers, ribbon, and fabric.

You'll also use several of your flower creations to complete a one-page layout and take the rest with you for use at home. As an added bonus we will provide you with instructions to make 8 more unique flowers! We think you'll find these flowers so addicting that you'll create them over and over again.
