It's All Chipboard

Hi Everyone

Just wanted to share the link for my first ever batch of cards for Imaginarium Designs a great Australian based chipboard company.

Who struggles with confidence to create??? Tick??? Who always compares their own finished product with others??? I used to, BUT I am learning that really really deep down somewhere that I make things to because I love it and for no other reason.  When I'm at retreats or talking shop with people I hear a lot of "but what would you use it for" and I am often compelled to respond by saying probably nothing but making it took me to another place that unless you create "things" you will not understand.  Come on! You know what I'm talking about - that place where there is nothing in your head literally you are thinking about nothing besides the next ribbon or stamp or bow that you want to attach.  Creating is a zen!  Enjoy.

P.S Stay tuned - Custom card orders are coming!!!!







Keep Creating!

Big Big News

Hi Everyone

To all you paper-crafting addicts out there who someday dream of being published or working for huge scrapbooking company or just to simply be on a Design Team, well I am here to tell you that it can happen because................... it has happened to me!! My coming of age so to speak - I finally made a Design Team and what's more important is that it's an Australian chipboard company. Imaginarium Designs has decided to take a chance on a "rookie" and allow me to use their beautiful chipboard to create some cards and other things I might be able to come up with!

I am going to take this opportunity with both hands and cherish it as I believe there is no greater privilege in this industry to represent a company and showcase their products each month to the best of my ability.  I hope you will follow me as I start this new creative journey and be inspired to either re-create my designs or use the techniques to come up your own ideas.

Keep Creating!
Wendy

Introducing ... Wendy

Hi there.

Today I'd like to introduce you to a new member of our team ... Wendy.
Wendy is an awesome cardmaker and super clever lady - she'll be joining our team this month.




“My paper crafting journey began when I was just 18 (now 42), from the moment I stamped an image and then watch the embossing powder melt (over a toaster) I was hooked.  I have always loved beautiful stationary and papers but when I discovered card making I was in seventh heaven.   I definitely fall into the “card makers” category but I also love to work on off-the-page projects as well. Scrapbooking…….. Let’s just say it doesn’t come naturally to me but rather something I dabble in here and there when the mood takes me.  When I think about my style of design I like to think that I can adapt from grungy to clean and simple without too much trouble, I love chipboard (obviously) I think it just makes a project pop!!! This is my first ever time working on a design team and I am relishing the challenge of developing ideas for using the awesome chipboard manufactured by Imaginarium Designs.  I hope my cards and projects will be a source of inspiration for you to take out your chipboard, inks and powders and just create for no other reason than because you can.”
