The Return of Toile: Special Valentine’s Day Issue

Toile is back in town and this time it’s wrapped up in pink and red.

I’m sorta loving this whole e-magazine thing and I hope you are too. This time around, I’m inviting you to a crafting party and sharing some lovely, simple projects with you to get your Valentine’s Day started right.  Thanks to the kind people at Minted, my party was decked out in style and I’m hoping you find some inspiration to host a crafting shindig of your own.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this special issue of Toile so be sure to comment here or on the Damask Love Facebook or Instagram pages. It’s not a party until you get in on the action, so go ahead and say your piece.

For those of you who spend half your life on Pinterest (I may or may not be one of those people) – here’s a fancy dancy Pinnable image for you to bookmark this issue of Toile as a reminder to come back for more Valentinesy crafting. Yes, Valentinesy. I just made that up.

    Just beautiful Amber, such a stylish magazine. I wish there were a few paper magazines that were this inspiring.

    Love it all and want to make the Clearly simple project but once I cut my cardstock and scored it I could not figure out how to do the rest. Any chance of step by step photos. Thanks for all of this. You went to LOTS of work. Beautiful production.

      Hi Erin! Unfortunately, I don’t have a PDF of Toile that I can send out but I did just change the settings on the magazine that will allow you to download it directly from the Issuu site. Hope this helps!
