This project has been designed to use any topper pad/sentiment and co-ordinating pad, and can be used for many different occasions. It is a great card for mailing as it folds more or less flat while giving a great depth when removed from its packaging. The pattern foiling technique can lift even the simplest printed design to luxury paper.

For those of you who have seen Kylie Bertucci and her #loveitchopit method, you may find it doesn't necessarily work for our type of crafting. In particular, the ScanNCut will not happily cut edge to edge; meanwhile it also allows us to create more layers through nesting shapes. Instead, I wanted to adapt an easy approach that ScanNCut users could use (along with other electronic cutters); thus came #loveitchopitSNC to our blog and magazine.
Graphitint pencils (by Derwent) are amongst my favourites in my collection as they are so versatile for sketching both in the studio and outside. They are really great pencils for urban sketching and painting due to their colour palette. So when I saw the ColourTint (by Spectrum Noir) pencils I thought these might be a good substitute for lower budgets.
