When will all the May/June issue goodies be loaded to this site and the Paper Crafts site? Can’t wait for those yummy cupcake patterns.
Thanks.

In my “Paper Crafts” magazine, some of the ideas say “visit http://www.Paper
CraftsConnection.com to download a copy of the pattern.” When I enter
that web-site, “http:papercraftsconnection.wordpress.com” comes up,
and I don’t see any way of downloading ANY patterns. How does this
work?

Hi All! We’ll be launching a new web site on Monday, March 23. All the online content from the May/June issue will be there, so stay tuned!
P.S. It will be the same URL (www.papercraftmag.com), so no need to go looking for it. And we will link to it from this blog as well! ~Kelly

Hi, I seen the ad for Creative Acrylics in the back of the magazine I just received (pg 88). I tried calling them but the phone number isn’t any good. I also surfed their site and the product that you showcased (sheet stock) and it isn’t anywhere on there that I could find. Do you have any additional information on where I could get the sheet stock?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks

Almost Spring
As winter turns the corner
And spring is on the way
I wait with mounting happiness
To see what comes today.
I also love the cold days
With frost upon the sill
But something special happens
Once winter’s had its fill.
The crocus buds are swollen
The daffodils sprout so tall
Something special happens
As spring time makes its call.
So get ready for the changes
That happens none too soon
When spring time rounds that corner
And flowers start to bloom!

The air is like a butterfly with frail blue wings.
The happy earth looks at the sky and sings!

Quick question on the Stamping Royalty contest. If we have not heard anything by today about submissions, should we assume they weren’t selected? Or are the notifications later in April? Thanks!

summer fun for me:
daydreaming of the grandkids, while walking along the beach and enjoying the smell of the ocean, watching for dolphins, and taking in the sounds of the birds flying high.

Can anybody tell me if they have had problems with missed issues of Papercrafts? I have called 7 times over the course of 2 months. Customer service put a trace on my subscription almost a month ago, but still nothing, and they don’t seem to care. I wrote to the editor in chief 3 weeks ago, but no response. I have asked about cancelling my subscription, but they will only refund $5.99 on a subscription that still has 18 months left on it. Anybody considering subscribing to Papercrafts would do better to subscribe to CARDS. It’s more expensive, but it comes out monthly, it doesn’t have many advertisments and I’ve never had problems resolving customer serives issues.

Carla,
Thanks for checking up on us. I did receive your letter, dated May 11, last week. I responded on Friday and your missing issue is on the way. I apologize for not responding immediately via email so you knew that we had received and were acting on your request. We’re sorry you’re so frustrated and hope that you change your mind about your subscription to Paper Crafts.

I’m having problems staying current on the papercraftsconnection blog site. I’ve missed every day since Thursday June 18th. How can I get to each days entry? This has happened before to me. I love to read the blog each day and enter the giveaways, as well as the great inspiration that is offered by everyone. When I go to the archive section for June 09 it stays at last week. HELP ME, PLEASE!!!

I couldn’t find where to enter the latest give away. the question was about most cherished kitchen item. Mine is easy. I am Norwegian American and I have my Bestemor(grandmother’s)Krumkaker making machine .It makes yummy cookies like ice cream cones that comes with a tool to make cone shaped rolled cookies. It is cast iron and sits on the stove . I remember making cookies with my Mom and Bestemor and in their honor I made some for the wedding shower for my son and his wife. The cookies travelled from Detroit to Akron for the party!

I am looking for a card/layout that I am 99% sure I saw on Paper Crafts Connection. It was of a tuxedo and wedding dress side by side and pictured from the back. I have looked and looked back through and can’t find it. Am I losing my mind? Please help…..jane

I was wondering if you will feature shrink plastic ideas in an article. There are different types (clear, transluscent, black, etc.), and I don’t know what to do with them. I’d like to add them to my cards, but need ideas…Thanks a lot. LOVE the magazine, and the website. I feel like I’m getting to know your staff, which makes me more invested in your magazine. Thanks a bunch.Sharon

I just subscribed to papercrafts magazine, downloaded the free cardmaking patterns and filled out the form for papercrafts connection that followed it w/a password and username. It was kicked back to me with the info that I needed to use a numeric digit w/my password and that my e-mail address was “already in use”. I corrected the info re the password, and once again it was sent back unaccepted, STILL saying my E-MAIL ADDRESS IS ALREADY IN USE!
Well—of course it is. It’s MINE and you have it because you sent me the original e-mail inviting me to subscribe just this a.m. It’s also on record w/my acceptance of the subscription offer. HOW do I get this corrected? I enjoy scrapbooking and cardmaking and would probably use this website, but this is ridiculous and I don’t have time for website glitches. Get back w/me SOON, please so I can either get this corrected and move on or else just forget it.

I recently received my subscription of Paper Crafts, Vol. 3, No. 3.
I opened it and found on the inside cover a Marvy silhouette button embossing punch.
I have been unable to find it any store or anywhere on line; or even on the Marvy site.
Help!
