newsletter #7
IzzaBoutChu.yolasite.com
Hello Newsletter Subscribers,
I am extending this for one more week. After this week, if you have not adhered to the next paragraph, you will no longer be able to receive this newsletter.
This is really important!
I need all of you to go to Yahoo
Groups and search IzzaBoutChu. You need to sign up if you want to continue
to receive this newsletter. Otherwise, you will stop receiving it. I wish that I could keep things the same way
that they are right now, but my audience grew faster than I ever imagined and
Yahoo is not cooperating with me sending mass emails. They have assured me that this is possible if
I send them out in the Groups section. I
hope that they are right about that. So,
please do this before next week. As
of next week, I
will only be sending out these newsletters via the Izzaboutchu Group on
Yahoo. If you have trouble finding it,
let me know and I will try to help. Some
of you have already done this…thank you for that.
This week was about school supplies.
Here in Florida, we had a tax-free weekend and mostly what you saw when
you walked into local stores were school supplies. I thought, wow, I’ll bet my subscribers could
use these types of files…and I got to work! J
My Life TAB: I wrote about how insecure we can become. We can become so insecure with our abilities
that we (ME!) can become easily offended…and appear to be victims when in fact
we are really bullies. The question that
I posed was this: Can “victims” create
bullies? I believe that is possible to
do. How many times has a child said “I
didn’t do it on purpose…He/She made me!!!”
It was the unsuspected sibling who irked the child to do what they
did. I remember those days….you know the
ones where you threaten to pull the car over so that they could walk?! Though we never actually did it….our parents
said it to us….we said it to them…and they will probably say it to their
kids! We are such creatures of habit and
observation.
If you have prayer requests, please send them to this address: IzzaBoutChuToo@yahoo.com
In the subject area, type PRAYER REQUEST. Do not send last names. Only
first names and brief descriptions of the situation. God knows what is
going on! :-) I will add them to my prayer list! I also ask that if
the prayer is answered that you let
me know so that we can give Him Praise!
CHAT ABOUT
PAZZLES:
Come on people…chat away here. You all
belong to groups. Schedule an
appointment with one another to meet here and chat away. Enjoy some long distance time together. Again…it doesn’t have to be about Pazzles
like it was originally set up to be. If
you are having issues with something regarding cutting, get together to resolve
it. The only thing that I ask is to keep
it clean and non-hostile towards one another or towards companies. Just use common sense.
ORDERS for WPC , PDF, SVG, and MTC files: This feature is for those of you who need a
special file. I charge for these kinds of files. The price would be
determined by the complexity of the file.
Also, from here on in, I am listing all free files as pdf and wpc.
If you want an svg or mtc, let me know....but I will be charging $1/file.
Most programs accept pdfs. If I list all file formats on my website, it
takes way too long and takes away from the quantity and quality of the designs
that I want to post in the future. This will encourage you to learn how
to import pdf if you don't already know how. One person said that she
didn't know how to use pdf for svg.....well....I made a tutorial on how to do
this and it is listed on the site under VIDEOS.
Videos: I have posted a lot
of videos this week since I finally have a microphone that works. Sorry that they are only for Pazzle
Inspiration users…but that is the program that I use and am sharing. However…..there are a few files connected to
the videos that EVERYONE can use.
How to make fancier buttons: This video shows you how to use your rotate and mirror tools to make fancier buttons.
How to use your pen tool, rectangle tool, and circle tool. There is a doodle file there that is meant to be used with your pen tool.
How to make edges lace using Capital Letters! It is so easy to do. That is how I first learned to make lace.
How to fix files that give you problems! I found out that I have some files that need to be better cleaned….and instead of just doing them myself…I want you to know how to fix them…especially if you are new at this!
Gallery: I changed the GALLERY
CHALLENGE to just GALLERY in case any of you wanted to post your projects. Just send a picture and details to izzaboutchutoo@yahoo.com
If you have used any files that I have posted here, please send in a photo and the steps that you used for your creations. That way, people can see how to use some of these files…especially if you used it differently that what it might have been intended. I love seeing how other people see things differently. Please share!
These are the FREE files that I added last week:

Paper and files: ****new section**** This is a new section that I am experimenting with. Depending on your response will determine as to whether I will make more of these in the future. Even if you don’t like the design for this week, if you have the means, I would appreciate hearing from you as to whether or not you were able to download it properly or not. What I am attempting to do here is to make paper and embellishments to match. You would have to print out the paper. If you do not have a wide format printer, the pdf is in an 8X8 format that could be printed on a regular printer. This week has a Parisian Flair to it. There is an emblem file on emblem paper. There will be an emblem printed on the paper…and then you can layer the cut file over it to get a layered shadow effect. There is also a poodle on the accompanying page….oh yea…some edged lace too! Ooh-la-la!

Teachers…email me at izzaboutchutoo@yahoo.com to tell me what you are looking for. If I have it, I can share it….or perhaps design something for you.
If you have any ideas for files, please
let me know! I love to design and your
suggestions let me know that I am not doing this in vain. If you have an idea, just send an email with
IDEA in the subject area.
Please send ALL correspondence to the IzzaBoutChuToo@yahoo
email address. My Opal777 email address is a personal one. I have
an elderly mother who ails from time to time...and I need that one kept open
for personal communication. Thank you for understanding in advance.
:-)
HAPPY SCRAPPING!! See you next week!
