September 2010 issue

Welcome to the August issue of Parchment Craft! As well as a broad range of cards the September issue of Parchment Craft magazine offers you the opportunity to develop your skills with a wide range of features focused on techniques.

Highlights include: Josie Davidson's workshop, detailing the principles of colouring with pearlescent inks; Jo Weir reveals her method of producing a pair of Gift Cards worked on a diagonal perforating grid; and Amanda Dray has created an embossed, shaped, tea light holder with matching card, both made with the help of a design template.

Regular contributor Maria Maidment has fashioned a delicate butterfly using various white work skills before mounting it onto a painted rose; and if you want to improve your cutting skills, why not try the elaborate Peacock Fan produced by Mary E Price.

Finally, I would like to welcome and introduce this month's Talent Spotter, Robyn Cockburn. Robyn, who is from Brisbane, has submitted a beautiful card design featuring a Kookaburra, native to eastern Australia.
