sweet words...

I just wanted to say that this is another lovely issue of Tickle the Imagination. I love getting the email saying the next issue has been released - it is a beautiful and inspiring magazine. Thank you! MARNIE - THE WHIMSICAL BLOSSOM

Your ‘word of the day’ on your tti facebook page, gives little businesses like mine the opportunity to promote our handmade wares, & for that i am very grateful. I believe the word at the time was ‘hearts’ & my clay heart gift tags were spotted by the amazingly talented Darren at CkMetrophotos. I have since had the opportunity to make my mud tags for his business packaging & he has just recently used some tags in a gorgeous engagement photo shoot! Thank you for what you have created with tickle the imagination, i love being a part of your journey. KIM - NEST INTERIOR STYLING


What an absolutely stunning 1st issue of your magazine!! I have spent my ‘down time’ while kiddies snoozed with a cup of tea and flicked the gorgeous pages enjoying every bit! I even overlooked the new IKEA catalogue that arrived in the mail today to just keep looking through the amazing articles, images and how to’s in Tickle The Imagination!!

I went straight back to your site and became a subscriber! AMY - GIGGLEBERRY CREATIONS

It is easily the best looking ‘craft’ mag out there… so editorial and utterly gorgeous, with brilliant content. Many online mags include contributions willy nilly, just to fill pages and it’s clear you’ve either sourced the very best or have culled because there’s nothing I dislike. It’s truly quality content, stunning images, beautifully laid out and designed – it’s bliss. TANIA McCARTNEY - AUTHOR
