My IMAGINE is in the HOUSE!!:) - Episode~97

All I have to say is "WOW"! I LOVE MY NEW "ANNIVERSARY" TOY!! hehehehe! I hope you enjoy my 3 "Beginner" projects! I had SOOO MUCH FUN creating these! Can I just say that this machine has SOOO MUCH Potential, it's killing me! lol.... I ONLY scratched the surface w/these cute items I made! The "ONLY" thing I'm not happy about, is that my poor "Gypsy Girl" feels neglected:(  As soon as I can use her w/it, LOOK OUT!!!! I might just have to make my "Imagine's" permanent home near my kitchen!! hahaha!...  In my video, I quick show you how I created the blue bookmark! I hope you enjoy it & PLEASE, let me know what you think!;)



This is the Bookmark using Wally World cardstock! Looks good in pics! I used a little stickles & my brown marker for the faux stitching!;) As you can see, I still layer everything! I don't think I can ever stop doing that!;)

This is the Bookmark using Papertrey Inc's cardstock! Looks good in pics & in "My Opinion" better to the touch! It's not flimsy, I just LOVE the quality of it!;) I added yellow stickles to the sun & used my brown stampin up marker for the faux stitching!


I used a borderline cream/white textured cardstock to cut out my tree! & Of course, I just had to stickle it up!! hehehehe!;)

Thank you for visiting my blog! I will see you back here tomorrow for my Throwback Thursday challenge & it's "Cricutless"!! Have a GREAT night my sweet friends!;)

  2. Emma .... have to tell you, your project look great.. I order mine.. and after seen some projects out there they look like stickers.. I dont want to loose what I got the original cricut and gypsy for... so I cancel my order this past Saturday. But seen your cards is more what a designer could really do with it... '
    What I seen in few other people what they cutting has a white edge to everything... wonder if is a feature or option.. not convince.
    But you are one of the best out there... so convince me again my friend.. LOL

    maybe you could use my question on your next Imagine video.. love everything you do my friend...

    *when I post this I havent seen your video... yet.

  9. Love all three projects you have created with the imagine. The Christmas tree is beautiful, and those book marks are adorable. I am so up in the air about it...I think my husband is starting to get tired of me hemming and hawing about it he just go ahead and order it without me knowing. Should I get it, nah I won't get it, well maybe I will get it that has been me since the darn thing aired last week. I am really hoping that you will keep making projects with it, so I can make a decision once and for all.

  15. Hi Emma, Thanks for showing this in a real way. I just don't think I will ever have the extra money for this. I am so happy with my Gypsy and Expression. I can see that this would be a blast but .... Oh I should never say never. Thanks for sharing your small struggle. Really a day and 1/2 in the box? I could see me doing that.
    I sent you something today. Watch you mail box.
    Hugs,
    Linda

  30. Love your projects Emma! Thanks for the great tip on how to get rid of the white border. I didn't care for that either. My Imagine has been sitting in the box for a day and a half now also but you made me want to get it out and play! I am nervous about the set up and calibrating but will get that done and then play, play, play!
    Big Hugs!

  31. Each one is gorgeous Emma! I want one of those machines! too bad I don't have an anniversary till next year! I'll be back later for the TT!!

  32. I am glad you like your imagine, there has been some negative thoughts from different people about the condition of the packaging when they receive their imagine. Hoping you didn't have that kind of experience. I really loved your 3 little projects. So easy. I have the imagine on my xmas wish list. Heres hoping i get one. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed watching it. vicky

  33. All 3 look great Emma, i see what you mean about the different type of paper. Will seriously have to think if i need/want one. Although they will be really expensive over here when they do arrive, i'm guessing about 1000 Aussie dollars.

  35. These are great, Emma! Have fun with your new toy!

  36. Great tutorial Emma. I don't have an Imagine, and probably won't get one. It's too expensive. But it is interesting to watch it work. Your's is the first tutorial I've watched that talked about the machine being heavy. I guess I hadn't thought of that.
    Thanks for sharing.

    have fun messing around with it and creating more and more stuff ..

  39. Congratulations on getting an Imagine,Emma. I am so envious but shouldn't be b/c my anniversary present is going to be a trip to Hawaii. I'm trying to keep up with all the new info so that if I am ever so lucky as to own one, I'll know what to do :)

  40. These are wonderful! Thank you for showing some cool inspiration for the new Imagine! I think your projects are a GREAT example of the potential of this machine. I can't wait to get mine!!!

  41. So glad you were able to get help & moral support from your ladies!

  42. Hi Emma,
    I am so happy for you and your purchase of the Imagine. You sound so happy with it. I just have one question. Does this mean most of your videos are going to be done with the Imagine from now on? I do not plan to purchase the Imagine any time soon and so enjoy using the Gypsy with your videos. I also purchased your DVD which is so informative that I watch it over and over again. :-)

  43. Great job on your first video! Love the projects you made, the Christmas tree was soo cute & the "you are my sunshine" bookmark was really sweet! I still sing that sometimes to my 15yr old son!

    ReplyDelete
  44. I've always loved your projects, Gypsy no Gypsy, Cricut, no Cricut, Imagine, no Imagine!!!! LOL... You are creative. I don't think I would get the Imagine though, unless my hubby decides to give it to me for our Anniversary...lol.

    Quilled Hugs,
    Linda
