Happy September, my SCT friends!

It’s hard to believe that fall is just around the corner! Here in Utah, we’ve experienced one too many 100-degree days for my taste, so if you’re like me, you’re ready for cooler temps and crispy leaves. We’ve got you covered with paper crafting inspiration in the Fall 2023 issue of Scrapbook & Cards Today, and it will be ready for you VERY soon!

While the content you’ll see has a distinctly autumnal feel that you’ll love, we started working on this issue way back in early June. There are so many things that need to work together to come up with the final fantastic result!

What’s in store in the fall issue? Here are a few things you can look forward to:

  • We hear you! We know you love double-page layouts and want to know what to put on the inside of your cards, so 3Is and Creative Cards will give you a ton of inspiration respectively!
  • Layering stencils are all the rage, and our Product Play column will give you the lowdown on options for using these versatile products.
  • You’ll find a bunch of beautiful and creative ways to make layers on your paper crafted designs in 3Ts.
  • And we’re welcoming our sketch creator Allison Davis as a designer in the Creating with Sketches column. So awesome!
  • As always, you’ll find fun sketches, online freebies, fabulous reader inspiration, and so much more!!

Today I want to share a sneak peek of two projects you’ll find in our fall issue!
