FREE tutorial with Carol Fox

Our last bonus tutorial this week is from the lovely Carol Fox.

Carol is fairly new to the team but she has already settled in nicely. I love how each piece she makes is a journey and tells a story of some kind - she is a very imaginative and thoughtful crafter.

Leave Carol a comment and you could win her art to hang in your craft space - how cool is that?

Make sure you come back tomorrow for the start of Trish's new challenge! It's going to be fun!

Blog Hop!!!!


Spring in your step? Get ready to Hop ‘til you Drop!

Welcome to the Craft Stamper Blog Hop!

What’s the Hop about?
In a blog hop you simply ‘hop’ from one blog to another, following the links until you come full circle back to the host blog (in this case us!). Our theme is Looking Back and we’ve asked our Design Team to create a post based around a crafting memory from 2012 that’s important to them. On each blog you’ll find a new post with insights and inspiration from our talented international team.

Why should I play along?
Each blog post will have loads of stamping inspiration from the talented team behind Craft Stamper magazine – completely FREE! There will be tips, tutorials and inspiring makes to be found all along the hop route.
AND you can win loads of awesome prizes! A big bumper prize will go to one person drawn from the entrants (see below). There are also spot prizes along the way – leave a comment on the host’s blog for a chance to win these.

How to Play:
Visit each of the blogs in turn – each blog contains a link to the next. Collect a letter on each blog, to make a phrase. Email the phrase to cs@traplet.com by midnight on Friday 8th February 2013 to be in with a chance to win our bumper prize of goodies! We've given you a whole week to enter so there is a plenty of time for everyone to get involved.

Some blogs have bonus Spot Prizes – where you see a spot prize leave a comment for the blog host and a winner for the Spot Prize will be picked from all the comments on that particular blog.
Please leave all the DT members some love if you can – they’ve put in a lot of hard work to put this hop together!

The first stop on your hop is:

Christine Dark
From there simply follow the links all the way around the hop until you get back here! There are 15 stops on the hop.

If you get lost on the way, below is the running order for the whole hop:
