Big Thank You and Sneaky m’s

Now that our first issue is out there and we have had a bit of a breather, we thought we would take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you that took the time to email us with your comments about our fist issue. Your support has been amazing and has made this incredible journey all the more worth while! As perfect as we would have liked our first issue to have been, it hasn’t been without its fair share of typo’s and grammatical errors. One of the most important email addresses that we have listed has had an extra ‘m’ added – so if you have been trying to enter any of our giveaways please note that the correct email address is innovationsb@yahoo.co.nz and not .com.nz as listed. Please spread the word as we want everybody that has bought our fist issue to have an equal opportunity of winning. Once again, Carol and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your support and well wishes.

Have a look back here tomorrow for a chance to win BIG in a subscription competition.

Keeping You Posted

Hello all… Just a quick not to let you know that we are running a little behind schedule of our intended print date.  The great news is that the delay is due to some fantastic advertisers coming on board together with GREAT prizes to give away.  I promised you an image of the cover of the first issue today so have a look back this evening for an updated post.

As always, thanks for your support and understanding.

Little Bite to Whet Your Appetite

Okay, so according to a previous post we were meant to release our cover shot today… we apologise for this as it should have been the 25th of March not the 25th of February.   So, unfortunatly no image of the cover will be released today – sorry for if any dissapointment has been caused but we would like to offer you this… 
A small bite of the cover and hope that it will whet your appetite!



 


Just a reminder about submissions for our 2nd and 3rd issues.  We would love to see what you can do with all that stash you have but most of all we would love to share your talent with our readers.

 

Issue 2

Deadline: 27 February 2009

  • Black & White with a splash of colour
  • These are my true colours
  • Pages using Bling/Crystals
  • Cards for Mom
  • Not2 Pages (any shap except square)

 

Issue 3
Deadline: 27 March 2009

  • Boys Boys Boys
  • Pages using Arrows & Brackets
  • Quirky things your kids do
  • Quotes as a page title

 

Note: It is important that layouts submitted are ‘Fresh’ (not been published before whether in an online gallery, personal blog or another magazine/ezine.)  This way we will ensure that our readers are getting value for their dollar.  Layouts that have been published before will not be considered for publication in innovation.

Congratulations

The response to our Lucky #13 Subscription Promotion was fantastic. Thank you all for entering.  Unfortunately there can be only 5 winners - and here they are. 

We will contact each of the winners during the week to get your postal details.

All the other ladies (and gentleman) that entered will be automatically entered into our subscription draw that will take place on the 27th of March.  Good Luck!
