If you’re a frequent visitor to our blog, you know we LOVE giving away prizes! (Perhaps you’ve even won a time or two!)
I try my best to follow up with our winners shortly after their names are posted. If you do not hear from me within 2-3 days, please e-mail me at ksmith@papercraftsmag.com. If a prize goes unclaimed for more than two weeks, an alternate winner will be selected or it will return to our prize vault and be used at a later date.
Note: Unless otherwise indicated, our winners are always selected at random. Also, we are no longer able to ship prizes outside of the U.S.
HOWEVER, this doesn’t mean that you can’t play. You can absolutely comment your socks off, but if your name is drawn, instead of winning the prize that’s being offered, you’ll receive a one-year subscription to Paper Crafts magazine. So keep your comments coming, friends!
The Prize Fairy,
Kelly

hi i am new at this blogging thing. they say it is a fun thing to get into doing. so here it goes. i am fairly new at getting the paper crafts mag. my first issue was the halloween issue 2009. that is when i fell in love with paper crafting i actually picked up the december issue thumbed through it and this card that caught my eye was in the front of the book in an ad. this particular card was a swing card. i sat down to see how easy it would be to make. and it was so easy that i made 40 of the same card as christmas cards for friends and family. everyone was so impressed with my cards they actually thought they were store bought. that made me feel good. so now i do a lot of cards and scrap booking pages. i pick up every mag religiously. i absolutely love it. keep give us those great ideas, tools and techniques please. oh and im getting my mother in law into papercrafting also. thank you so much for the great mag

I have just purchased my FIRST and I’m sure not my last Paper Crafts Magazine and have been blown away by all the information you give to your readers….it’s a magazine that I’ve actually read cover to cover and then gone back to it again and again…..thank you

I’ve gotten your magazine for years and have been so inspired by it! It’s funny though, this is the first time I’ve been to your website, it’s as wonderful as all of you.
I started making cards a number of years ago, then signed up as a demonstrator, ‘to get the discount’. I had the time of my life, but now have decided I just want to play with it again. Right decision at the right time.
It seems that now my creativity is really starting to pop out there, and I am LOVING it!
Thanks for the inspiration!!!

I absolutely love my “Card Ideas for paper crafters” Volume 1. I bought it back in October 2011, and can’t get bored with looking at it and getting ideas for the cards I love to create for people. I’ve even fallen asleep hugging my magazine ;oD Thank you Paper Crafts for this wonderful magazine.
