March newsletter



Happy March everyone,

I had a lovely few hours off today and headed to the coast and checked out the beach in Raglan.  It was really nice to get away and feel quite refreshed again, as it has been a busy start to the year.  I love water and do find it quite relazing, which is probably why we have 5 ponds on our property and two fish tanks. It's probably just as well I havn't worked out how to papercraft a fish tank or have I?  I was just working on a school holiday plan and I was thinking that perhaps a fish tank would be fun to make.  Watch this space.

Alysha has been really busy with invitations, Wedding, birthday, and baby shower and even a 40th.  Do you want something different? Come and have a chat to her.
In the meantime here is some advice:
So you just got engaged? CONGRATULATIONS!
That's the first very exciting step towards your wedding and married life together YEAH!But there are many more steps between now and then, all of them important when planning a wedding!
Do you know the steps you need to take now?
Many people know they need to set a date, pick a venue, look at caterers and photographers, starting looking for a dress and flowers... all that obvious stuff....   but do you know how far out from the wedding you need to send invitations? Do you know when you send save the dates if you want them? Do you know what date to set for the RSVP? or How to address your envelopes and invitations? Do you know how to word your invitations if you don't want children at your wedding? or If you should individual invites or combined invites for people/families living in the same house?
If not - no need to worry, that's what we are for!  Come and see me at Imagine If Creative Studios! I know just how to help you with these questions and many more.
We can help with wedding invitations - ceremony &/or reception only invite wording, embellishments, envelopes, maps, RSVP cards, transportation cards, menu's, seating charts, place cards, ceremony programs, wedding thank you cards, engagement party invites & thank you cards, wishing well wording and soooooo much more!

Cheryl has been busy again, and this is the 2nd of her set of little fireplaces.   Click on the link to take you to the blog. 



We have all of the new released Dylusion stamps in, those that have been released so far anyway.
If you are a journal person you are going to love these stamps. Check out Laugh till I leak, and how about never!  For those with a wicket sense of humour.
 



We have just received a new shipment of flower soft, it has been repackaged into smaller packaging which is awesome, and will fit into a small envelope now.  Which makes it heaps cheaper to post.
The colours are awesome, and if you make cards or any crafts really this is a great way to add texture.
 



Do you make your own invitations or looking for something for your cards, check out this selection from Kaisercraft called Lucky Dip! Awesome products, easy to use.
 


Hows this little cutie, made from wire it is great for fairy gardens which are very popular right now.  Click on the link to take you to the miniature page. 

Angelina fibres are back in stock, this is what I did last week in class with the peacock angelina.
We had a very loud class, and I was very surprised (not) by those of us who actually couldn't use the iron settings.  Oh and that included me!
Check out what we have instore at the moment by clicking on the picture.
