i-spy is back!



With all our new lines and product releases, we've been busy showing off the amazing work of our designers. But we've also noticed lots of fabulous Imaginisce projects popping up on blogs and online galleries over the past few weeks, so we thought we'd shine a bit of the spotlight on some talented designers that have caught our eye.

Who will it be? Let's see!

Diana Fisher used our Happy Harvest line to create this adorable layout. The buttons she added really bring those die-cuts to life!

The Live Loud line was a perfect choice for this layout from Beth Hallgren about her son teaching himself to play guitar. Her grid-based layout was inspired by Melinda's September sketch.

Brook Stewart got her hands on our new Geek Is Chic line and used it to create this adorable layout that lists all the books her son read.

Jana Eubank paired our Animal Crackers collection with the County Fair Cricut Cartridge to create this fun and colorful layout. Don't you love the i-Rock jewels added to the banner?

School's Out!!!
Well almost, as we come to the last day of our Geek is Chic Release Party!
We've had a wonderful time showing you all the fun projects you can whip up using our latest collection and from all the terrific comments you have left us, it seems as though everyone has enjoyed the week of inspiration.
A+ all round!

However, before the final bell rings, we need to wrap up with our last day of creations, so grab a glass of milk and an apple and sit back to enjoy one final round of projects from our design team!


Isn't this just the yummiest card from Courtney!

Courtney has created this clever card and in case you are wondering how she made the fabulous books... she used the Cricut Cartridge 'Wrap It Up'.


Rhonda has used the alternate sides to the Geek is Chic school theme papers and created this adorable layout about the love of her boys and their dad... too sweet!

Another fun layout from Rhonda and just look at those little brad daddies covered in the ruler paper... too cute!




This little man manages to put a smile on his mum's face at just the right time... such a gorgeous photo that just had to be scrapped!



Another little book worm... it's so nice to be able to scrap the little moments in a child's life... like the love of books and learning to read at five.




Sophia has made this gorgeous card and envelope set with the sweetest butterflies punched from the Geek is Chic ruler paper... we love it!

How is this for a fun way to jazz up a plain old pencil tin... add layers and layers of different paper strips!


Liz Qualman

Liz has created this fabulous apple mini album to document school days for her daughter.

Such a studious little gal with such a cute smile!




A school notebook doesn't have to be plain and boring, Liz has totally revamped this little book to make it something worth showing! We love it!



Melinda's has given herself a blister by sharpening an entire row of pencils to create a fun element to this layout of her son's year at kinder.

And how about an apple for the teacher... Melinda has filled a clear container with Jaffas and dressed it up to look like an apple. She has even used her Cricut to cut out the leaves and stem. Yummy!

Geek is Chic Release Party - Day 3


Have your ever stopped to think about your children going off to school... we nurture them so much before sending them off into the big wide world and then never really get to see what they do for the time they are away gaining their education. I would love to have video footage of my children at school, but that's not really the done thing, however I'm very fortunate as our school principal is a photo-maniac and has the camera out most days. At the end of the year we recieve a disc full of wonderful photos of school life, sitting at their desks, eating their lunch, playing outside, art activities, sports, excursions, making cubby houses, digging in the vegetable garden. Priceless memories that I'm truly grateful to have. So sometimes its nice to be able to say thankyou to a teacher for going that extra step in making our child's school days special and memorable. What better way than present that special teacher with a gift to say thanks!











Shemaine Smith


By using the black and white photo of her son's graduation day, Shemaine has really kept the photo as the main focus whilst allowing the colours to really pop right off the page.

A very sweet double page layout of Shemaine's daughter learning the art of reading... clever girl!


Erin Bassett

How good does the teal background look on Erin's back to school layout. Compliments the die-cut title perfectly!

Who says pennants are just for waving... this pennant card is such a super cute idea!


Erin is our resident doily fan and she loves to use them as often as she can... this card is no exception as the doily has been misted in a metalic brown finish to tie in with the 'U Rule' Snag 'Em Stamp, and how cute is that little bell tied on with the Baker's Twine.

A totally wonderful idea... revamping a an old pencil box!


Frances Sylvia

Frances has created this wonderful layout about the transition from one school to another, definitely a hard time in any child's life but certainly a moment to capture and remember!

Such an adorable layout of three little people heading back to school!

Penny Smith

Penny has used lots of white space to draw focus to all the right places and the photo certainly doesn't get lost, its a wonderful image of her boys heading back to school.

Another great use of space and how adorable is that 'confetti - all over the page punch'.


Another day of inspiration and wonderful projects using the new Geek is Chic collection. So now that you have ideas floating around you are going to need your own product and today we are giving away yet another sample pack of Geek is Chic... who wants to win?

Geek is Chic Release Party - Day 2

School photos aren't the most attractive photos we have of ourselves, especially when we look back 30 odd years and see all the freckles, the lopsided pony tails in our hair, the goofy expressions, the gorgeous fashions and we wonder what our parents were thinking when they sent us to school in that red knit jump-suit that scratched all day long.
Thank goodness paper doesn't come in red-knit! Well not yet, anyway.

So, it's nice to have a collection that is full of fun school based patterns, bright colours and awesome sayings that can detract from some of the imperfections in our school photos. Today our design team are on track for another A+ with some wonderfully inspirational projects that showcase how much fun this collection really can be!

Cari Locken

Cari has made this amazing teacher's gift set which would surely send your child to the top of the class.

Such a fun idea and great way to use have your children increasing their memory skills too!

A sweet card with little pops of glamrocks in all the right places.

Sometimes its nice to scrap about the little moments in life, like your child's love of reading!

Cari has used her Cricut to cut the black alphabet border which compliments the colours perfectly!


Kim has created the most adorable and practical little booklet that allows children to practice their writing skills over and over again as each page is laminated so the pen simply wipes right off. We love it!

A fun card that would be perfect for any occasion!

Not all layout have to be about the little ones in your life, Kim has created this totally cool page about her teenage daughter, who is just going to love having these photos all over the internet!



Lydia has created this wonderful photo collage to celebrate the first day of school.

A grown-up spin on using the Geek is Chic collection as Lydia scraps about her own love of books and reading.

A perfect little back-pack tag!


Samantha Hauzer

Samantha has totally re-decorated this little homework pencil box and given it groovy facelift!

A new school year and a whole new list of school items that are well worth documenting!

Definitely an event worth capturing... grandparent's day at school.

Who is inspired by today's amazing projects? Well you are going to need your very own Geek is Chic  products to get you started on your own school creations.
How about you tell us which is your favourite set of embellishments from the Geek is Chic collection which you can view HERE and we will choose one lucky follower to recieve their very own sample pack of Geek is Chic.
