Good morning and happy Friday, SCT friends!
This is one of the four Fridays of the year I love the most and I’m so glad you’re here! It’s our Fall issue release day! It’s issue #59 and if you think this ever gets old, I can assure you it’s a thrill every time. We started this issue six months ago and it’s always incredible the moment it lands in my hands from the printer. If you had told me in 2005 when Scrapbook & Cards Today start as a company that we would be here today, I’m not sure I would have believed it. But with an incredible team both past and present, wonderful partners who support all that we do, and readers like YOU, I know exactly why we’re here with issue #59. Introducing our gorgeous fall issue…

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend! Join us Monday when we’ll be sharing our new Autumn Afternoon kit and the gorgeous artwork our team created with it.
Cannot wait for fall issue in these trying times receiving this each quarter helps to keep me going!
I love the inspiration from DT members and reader submissions.
Love holding and reading through this magazine. There’s always so much inspiration!
OMG. This issue looks simply amazing. I would love to share this with my daughter. She is following my mommy’s footsteps into to this fun paper crafting world!
Love to see all of the wonderful inspiration the the magazine.
The whole magazine has the greatest inspiration. Some of the page layouts gave me some ideas for cards. Thank you for such an awesome tool.
I am so excited to get my issue, based on these sneak peeks that you shared. I am so grateful that there is still a scrapbooking resource in print to enjoy. There is just something about holding it in my hands and flipping the pages…
I also want to let you know how excited I am to be able to attend Crop and Create this year. I live in the US in North Carolina, and attending the in-person event would have been impossible due to the distance, time of year, and the locations. Having a virtual event opens a door to an opportunity that I didn’t expect to have. I am looking forward to that special weekend.
Thank you for your kindness and for this amazing community.
Take care, and happy creating,
Anne-Liesse

My favorite part of the magazines the inspiration!! Different techniques, new layouts and sketches. Thanks for the chance to win!
I love the Designer Challenge – seeing different ways to use the same product always blows my mind! Thanks for putting such a great resource out there for us Catherine & team!
I liked the article about creating your own fall leaves. It looks like a great way to use up those scraps you just keep hanging onto …. (I am guilty of that). I know you are not supposed to pick an ad but seeing the button press from We are Memory Keepers REALLY makes me want one. I have a brain full of button ideas!
I enjoy all parts of your magazine! I always like the sketch and seeing what others did with it. Thanks for the chance to win.
I love the magazine because it is so bright and cheery and just makes my day when I receive it in my mail box. I love the essentials and page maps and all the beautiful layouts in it.
It’s very hard to pick a favorite part of the magazine. I love Fall and all of the Fall inspiration. I must say my most favorite thing is being able to hold it in my hands and looking through it at my own pace, and then looking through it again. Love the size, quality, and artwork of the entire magazine!????
The Top 10 Must Have Products is always a favourite! Thanks for a chance to win a copy of your terrific magazine!
I’m a card maker so of course my favorites include all of the cards, I also love the latest and greatest products info and the page maps. Cathy Zielske always has great info, I’m a huge fan of her sense of humor. I look forward to savoring this latest issue.
I love the issue. I briefly looked earlier. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be using the sketches to create the cards. I enjoyed how the sketch artist called it a starting point.
I always download the issues but I absolutely LOVE to hold a real paper issue in my hands and savor every picture. I get so tired of doing everything on the computer all the time. I love everything about the issues because there are so few magazines available. I used to subscribe to about 8 craft, painting, and stamping magazines which do not exist anymore.
Such wonderful inspiration! I love the feel of a magazine. I am check out the sketches which help me get going!
I love reading your magazine. So many great ideas are featured.
I love reading your magazine. So many ideas are featured.
I love your magazine especially when it’s a paper copy and not digital.
I enjoyed the 3 T’s. Always good to learn new skills!
I’m anxious to download the issue and have a look! The card ideas are my favorite thing to see, but I enjoy all the samples and get inspiration for each project! I’d love to share an issue with my cardmaking friend, Laura!
I love the Takes 2 & 3. I don’t know how you decide which to put on the cover! Thanks for all the inspiration and opportunity to win.
I love everything about this issue. Fall is the best season! If I had to pick a favourite part it would be the inspiration gallery. Amazing ideas!
I like the ideas also for cards and the fall leave making! Thank you and my friend Kim would love this Fall release too! Tks!
Love your magazines!!
So exciting! Love holding a magazine and not just reading the content online. Magazines are few these days!
My favorite part is looking at 2-page layouts with a decent number of photos, because that’s what I scrapbook, and I love the ideas. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
Besides the content, my favourite part of the magazine is the smell of the hot-off-the-press paper. I just love the high quality paper!
Beautiful issue with so much inspiration! Thank you to everyone on the team for making it so enjoyable for us crafters! ❤️
I love the inspiration and the different projects. Love the vibrant colors of the images in your magazine
I love all the inspiration and talent provided by amazing crafters! ????
My favourite part of the magasine is seeing all of the pages the readers have sent in.
My favorite part is the page maps section . I love using page maps to create beautiful layouts with my own twist!
There’s so much to love, but in this issue I especially enjoyed the Pocket Play, the sketches, and the little blurb on Amy Tangerine’s new Late Afternoon line. Cause a little enabling is always welcome.
I love the page maps or the this way and that layouts. Love from Northern Ontario!!
