In this issue you'll find plenty of exciting new projects and techniques to try, such as extreme collage; our new contributor, Stacey Young, offers an amazing look at her special talent. Meanwhile Georgia Keays shows us how easy it is to create a layout from recycled scrapbooking materials. There are plenty of Easter-inspired projects too. You can’t go past Angella Peardon’s Easter Egg Basket; if you haven’t tried flocking or working with metal leaf before, then this project will definitely be a fun challenge — and would make a great centre piece for Easter lunch! Our features offer some advice on how to make fabric flowers and scrap the one photo four different ways, which is great for those looking for new ways to scrap.

Create your own off-the-page vintage shadow box like Natalie Wolfe from Twiddleybitz. Our easy step by step instructions will help you along the way and with a little inspiration and creativity; you’ll have an amazing piece to hang on your wall.
