April Fools day and a new release

Hi to everyone,

Happy April Fools day everyone.
April is now here, and suddenly having the cat sleeping under my chin causing a little over heating doesn't seem quite so bad.  No doubt by July I will be hoping my own little personal breathing hot water bottle, comes to bed, and i wont spend half the night pushing her off me.   Of course this is the same little darling who gifted me a WETA in the shower, oh I am surprised you didn't hear the screaming from your house. I really cannot like those little creatures, but then again I should be grateful it isn't a snake I suppose.

I have to say I feel like I can finally breathe again, I have the felt loaded on my www.imagineif.co.nz  website, Yeah.  New packaging and all.  Still got the chipboard to go, but I am learning slowly that Rome wasn't built in a day, although i have to say if it was me, I would have given it a very good shot.

   
As you can see the product is look very sharp.
Everything that you can see in Felt is also done in chipboard, it just needs to be loaded on to t e site.  There is so many great designs, and brand new off the page projects are just off to the designers tomorrow.  

Today I get to show off my first lot of chipboard designs, they come in 2 sizes.  Firstly we have a set of beautiful heels,

It is one shoe, and it comes as one whole piece, and several individual pieces, that can be used to make a very cool decorated shoe.  I have mine framed and it looks amazing.

I have also done this as a pair of miniatures for card making, they come as 3 pairs of solid shoes in a set.

I have also done a Boot in the same format.


http://www.imagineif.co.nz/fashion/    to check them out.

These are my first two projects and the design team, have been busy making theirs, wait till you see what they have done with them.  Amazing, from scrap booking, card making and off the page projects.  The girls will be blogging them this month.

You will need to be on blogspot to see the posts,
http://imagineifnz.blogspot.co.nz/
though i will do an update as we go along, but not every day.

We have also released a set of fashion sayings that go with our new shoes,

Classes
April Classes:
Encaustic wax art for Adults Friday 4th April $20.00, we have a tutor coming for this, and it is so much fun.  You can make some really creative projects.  These are card size, and you will make somewhere between 4-8 depending on how fast you are. 10am - 12pm.

Unfortunately I am really behind with everything, and I have decided to take the rest of the month off from adult classes. I need to get my head around some new Stencils we are cutting and some off the page projects that we are designing, and I just cannot mange anymore in my day without probably getting a divorce.  As it is there is quite a bit of discussion as to who is Managing Director of the business and who is general dogsbody... I think I am winning but........!

March is marching on

Hi all,
I hope you all survived the cyclone undamaged, we were all good, just leaves everywhere, as you get with wind.  In the pool, stuck to the car, and covering the deck in large piles.
I hope none of you had worse than that, and that you got a chance to play in your craft spaces maybe, since it was really not great picnic weather.

March Newsletter

Hi to everyone, and Hello March
I think 2014, has got to be the strangest year ever, February was hot, and then March comes along and things change in an instant.  Although if you know me personally, you will know I hate the heat, I prefer winter. I know what your thinking, but I love being cool.  I must have been a polar bear in a previous life.

As you can tell from the heading that I have the machine operating, and boy is it fun....well when the drivers don't disappear, and instead of being out having fun on a Saturday night, you are sitting there in your dressing gown at 10.30pm trying to get it to work, so much for dressing for work, and doing business hours.

I have got our first original designs off to the Design Team,
So let me introduce you to them:

Products: There are some great designs that we do in Felt and now in Chipboard (box board) nice and thick and sturdy for all those mediums to be added to.

Okay that was a joke, the scales are tipping firmly over in the wrong direction at present, but hopefully i will be sorted by the end of the week.  I did manage a little play with some paint yesterday, which was fun, I am quite enjoying watercolor painting, you can get good results from little knowledge, or course that is because I was Procraftinating....

february newsletter

Hi to everyone,
Hello February!  This is so weird, this year seems to have set off at such a pace, I am wondering whether I should be starting to prep for Christmas again. Those lazy days of summer, if anyone knows where they are please send one my way.  I however did have a night at Pauanui and that was great.  My friends have a beautiful place and we were invited down for a night.  My darling friend did however drag me on a 5km walk around the place, which was wonderful, my camera and I made some new friends so that was fun.

Most of you will know that I love paper, and well paper things, l love this video check out the link, and I think you will agree paper is here to stay, well for a while.
http://www.youtube.com/embed/V_gOZDWQj3Q?rel=0
Hope you got a laugh from that one.

Today is an a very cool day for me, a new venture for Imagine If.. and myself.  I will let you know next week more about that.  No, I will not be making purple clocks? or will I?.  Actually that sounds fun, maybe you will see some purple clocks.  I will be manufacturing my own range of products, at present the company I have purchased are doing craft ranges, but I will be adding my own spin to what they are already doing over the next few months.  So lets be honest you probably will see purple clocks and keys actually.  Stay tuned.

I will also be announcing a call for design team members, so put your thinking cap on if you would like to apply for that.  Al the details will be out next week, after my brain has stopped spinning out of control.
 
Class this week got canceled due to the purchase of the business, which went very quickly, a week we checked it out, re checked, signed, sealed paid and well not quite delivered.

If you are like me and you need to keep your craft area or office tidy, check out these options on this website, run  by Paperzone in Hamilton for all your crafty requirements.
http://www.craftandoffice.co.nz

Website
The website has now got credit card facilities, very happy about that, we are using pay pal for that.  You just pay with your credit card like a normal credit card transaction, and they do all the banking and cover me for fraud etc, so it is a good option and very safe.  You can still pick up and pay cash or you can choose to use Internet banking, that is up to you.

I am loving some of the new arty stamps that are happening out there at present, I am not intending to bring in a lot of stamps, but I do like a few different ones, so check out the link for some very cool stamps, including these lovely ladies.


http://www.imagineif.co.nz/stamps/

Classes
All classes will now be booked through the website, http://www.imagineif.co.nz/  under class bookings.  If you click on the link for February you will see the classes listed.  You do not have to pay for the class until a week before the class or by arrangement with me on the day, or you can pay by paypal as that is now running properly.  

February classes

Friday 14th February 10am - 12pm $20.00 Four Wedding, Anniversary or birthday cards.
We will be using some very cool products to make these versatile backgrounds, then making the card using them.  The cards can have any verse or saying put on them so they don't have to be wedding cards. We will be using shimmer sheets to make the backgrounds.  This is a very versatile product, and I have enjoyed playing with this product.  


Sunday 23rd February 10am - 2pm  Creative Outlet class $35.00
This is a very creative class where you will do a little bit of this and a little bit of that.  I don't want to scare you and use the word ART, so I am not.

When we are young we read and believe the most wonderful things.

Hi everyone,
Today I have  a project I made using Twiddleybitz chipboard, and a few little bits and pieces.  I have always wanted to do a hollowed out book, but.....what a nightmare to make, so I gave it to my husband to do, patient soul that he is.  He hollowed the book out leaving me a frame for my pages.  (Actually he made 8 of them, I gave some to a group of friends, who thought I had gone made giving them a hollowed out book for xmas).

When we are young we read and believe the most wonderful things.

 Do you agree?
