While we all love perusing the latest photos on Pinterest and reading about the latest techniques on blogs, sometimes there is something wonderful about flipping through an actual magazine and finding that perfect project. This month, we found a few exciting features in Scrap & Stamp Arts and Australian Scrapbook Ideas magazines that we want to share with you.

First up, in Scrap & Stamp Arts, Kriss Cramer shows you how to give a friend a boost with her "Hang In There" panel, tag, gift box, and inspiration book. These project feature Archival Ink, Adirondack Ink Pads, and Stickles Glitter Glue and are the perfect way to let someone you know you are thinking about them. |

You may remember back in October Bibi Lindahl shared her Grunge Resist technique. Bibi is back with this wonderful technique and shows how easily it transitions into a Spring theme. In Grunge Resist Part 2 she showcases several projects that feature pastel color palettes and shares some tips & hints on how to make this look work for you! |

Also in Scrap & Stamp Arts, Gail Green dives into Tree Stamping. Using one simple tree stamp, Gail shows how far you can push the boundaries of one stamp by creating five completely different pieces! Using everything from Archival Ink, to Liquid Pearls, to Adirondack Embossing Powders, to Distress Markers, you can really stretch one stamp to the limit. Be sure to check out this feature to see just how many ways you can reuse the same stamp! |

In Australian Scrapbook Ideas, Gabrielle Pollacco details how to make an eggshell mosaic out of leftover eggshells, gesso, glue, Alcohol Inks, and Glossy Accents. In this project she adheres them to a heart shaped chipboard to make an embellishment for her project. |

Finally, Rachel Morris puts the finishing touches on her Project Life book by making some custom alphas with Tim Holtz Wordplay die, scrap chipboard, Distress Ink, and Rock Candy Distress Crackle Paint. |
