Any one get Just cards or scrap & stamp arts Magazine?
I was looking at getting the Just cards and scrap & stamp arts Magazine in the mail. I got the Just cards for kids and really like it. I got it at Hobby Lobby with a 40% coupon. do any of you get any of these in the mail and if so are you happy with them. I see they have a Birthday and Holidays also and two more I think it is Wedding and invitation. but I dont think you can get them in the mail from what I can see. would love any info on these or if you think there are better ones out there.
I have a subscription to Just Cards and always order the special issues (Just Birthdays, Just Holidays, etc.) I LOVE them! You can order them online here:
I have a subscription to Scrap & Stamp and really like the magazine. I usually buy the regular Just Cards magazine when it comes out. The subscription to Just Cards, is a little more expensive than to the Scrap & Stamp Magazine, so I try to us a coupon at one of the major stores. This is a link to subscribe:
I find Just Cards to only be a picture book so it doesn't do much for me. I do like many of the other card magazines on the news stands. I like to read new/different techniques and not just look at pictures. I like the articles in the magazines.
I really like Stamp and Scrap Arts, very good variety of articles and samples. I thumb through Just Cards at the book store, never buy it, and occasionally "steal" on idea.

Thank you for all the info. I think I get these. also Ragtop do the special issues Just Birthdays, Just Holidays. do they come out at the same time or do they just have one come out say Birthdays and then Holidays will come out. the Kids Birthday one is the only one I seen so I did not know after they take this one out if then they will bring Holidays or Birthdays out. thanks again.
I have a subscription to Just Cards and I love it! In fact, I just renewed it. I also tend to buy their special issues (Holidays, Birthdays, Kids). I get so many good card ideas! Even if I don't copy the card exactly, I often use the layout of the card to make a card in a different theme (i.e., in the magazine it might be a get well card and I use the layout to make a congratulations card). I think it is the best card magazine for the money.
I really like the Scott Publication magazines like Scrap & Stamp Arts magazine, Just Cards, Just Weddings! Just Invitations!, Just Birthdays!, etc. since they have been so kind to me and have published many of my cards, projects, and tips. http://www.scottpublications.com
I also look at other scrapbooking and craft magazines at the library too! Cheaper for me since I'm frugal!

They're special issues so they only come out every so often and never together. There have been two Holiday issues, a Birthday, Wedding, Invitations, and the Kids one was the most recent special issue. You can order the other issues, if they're still available, here:
Thank you Ragtop for the info. I did get the Just kids Birthdays and really like it. I wish they had a subscription to these.
I did look at my Library but they dont have these. they dont have to many at all. not sure why.
A lot of small libraries have small budgets, but I bet, if you take a magazine in and give them the subscription card, they might consider ordering it for you. Once upon a time, I worked as a volunteer in a library and my sister works for a library too. ;)
