Hello, friends! Welcome to day one of our much-anticipated Card Creations 10 Week!
We’re so glad you could join us as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Card Creations brand with the release of Card Creations, Vol. 10 ! Officially on sale tomorrow, this very “special” issue features 300 fresh card ideas for every occasion and holiday. And guess what? We’ll spend the next five days “meeting” a few of them and getting to know what makes a card “Card Creations worthy”.
We’re also partnering with our Trends Editor, Cath Edvalson and the Moxie Fab World for a whole week of Card Creations 10 promotion. Between the two sites, we’ll be spotlighting fabulous cards from the issue and giving away lots of copies of this must-have magazine.

Today we’re spotlighting the three talented designers that grace the cover of Card Creations, Volume 10: Sarah J. Moerman, Lynn Mangan and Beth Matson! Let’s take a closer look at their extraordinary cards and find out their reaction to becoming cover girls!
Sarah J. Moerman, Party Hat Card (p. 38):
Sarah J. Moerman
“I was beyond thrilled when Susan e-mailed me with the news that my card was going to be on the cover of Card Creations, Volume 10! Getting that e-mail is just as exciting (if not more!) than the e-mail that some of your cards have been picked up for publication. I feel truly blessed! Thanks, Paper Crafts!!!”
Lynn Mangan, Carpe Diem Card (p. 64):
Lynn Mangan
“To say I was shocked would be an understatement! I kept staring at Susan’s e-mail thinking, ‘NO WAY! NO WAY! NO WAY!’ I was amazed and smiling from ear to ear. And no one was home at my house! When my hubby got home, I told him first thing. And today I am still thinking, ‘NO WAY!’ Paper Crafts, thank you for choosing my card from all the gorgeous creations!”
Beth Matson, 10th Birthday Card (p. 47):
Beth Matson
“My first reaction to hearing that one of my cards made the cover of Card Creations, Vol. 10 was… ‘Really?! The cover?!’ This thought was accompanied by a huge grin from ear to ear. This has been such an amazing year for me with regards to my paper crafting. I finally got up the courage to submit to Paper Crafts and have been blessed with two cover appearances this year. The people at Paper Crafts hold a special place in my heart.”
Thanks, ladies! We’re thrilled you shared your talents with us for this anniversary edition of Card Creations. We hope to see many more of your inspiring creations in future issues!
