2006 - The Recap of the Year

It has been a very busy and productive year!   We opened our online Fabric Painting Library at FabricPainting.org last year but it has yet to have its final look and feel.   It is getting lots of use according to our traffic stats.  Be sure to visit it often and watch how it grows and develops.  As our holiday thank you gift this year, we opened a Free Stencil Library for our clients.  See your annual holiday email message from us for the link to this valuable webpage.  Sign up to receive this message on our Request Form, if you are not on the annual email list or think you may not be.

We have added lots of great new products including some of own exclusive fabric painter's accessories. Nobody else even offers these great new tools and we include a complete directions sheet with each, of course.  See our webspecials webpage [HERE] for those.

We are so excited to have added to our lines so extensively.  We feel this gives us the best cross selection of fabric painting products and supplies on the planet!  Now we can help with any fabric painting project including furniture fabrics/upholstery, highly synthetic fabrics, glass and smooth surface paints, and a fantastic selection of 3D dimensional paints for all surfaces.  Our 3D paint selection includes 20 puff paints, 20 metallic colors, 20 shiny, glossy colors, 12 Sparkle Gels, and 8 glitter paints!  80 great paints in all.  And, of course, we had to make a special introductory offer on those so see that and all the great colors [HERE].

We also added lots of new ballpoint colors and transfer designs from Cameo and Aunt Martha.  The websites are still being added to on the transfer designs because there are so many!  Keep an eye on Patterns2Paint.com and the Cameo Transfer Design Section for more to come.

During this upcoming year, 2007, I will be bringing my new Idea Shares to this blog so you can all comment on the new techniques and ideas.  I started to list the current ones in our forum and the online library has the current ones in text and Microsoft Word format.  I will be putting them also into PDF format as well...as I get time.

More to come this coming year!  Be sure to stay tuned! And check out our new Kits/Sets on the websites, too.

Progress on Fabric Painting Online Resource Library

Launch date for our online library has been delayed due to new sites that are going to be launched. However, we have opened a section of the library (without fancy themes, layout, etc. yet) that offers access to some of the best articles, techniques, instructions, product guide, and much more.

See it at http://www.fabricpainting.org now or by clicking to the library from our websites. It is no longer just an under construction page. Lots of link for anyone and everyone to enjoy. More to come as we get more revised and linked.

We have opened the new forum and will soon be adding the best of our former forum on fabric painting to it. News release on that to come soon!

Of course, our expert advice line is open every day from Noon to Midnight US Mountain time zone, where it is now .

This means our office hours have also changed permanently. We are using this time slot to make our support services more available to countries outside the USA while providing good support coverage for the US also.

That is all for now. --- HAPPY FABRIC PAINTING & CRAFTING!

Another Successful Year & the Look Ahead

We have just finished our preliminary numbers for last year. We are amazed at how well we did, not only financially, but also at the number of people we helped during 2004. We personally helped more than 1,500 people directly by phone and email. That made it our most successful and busiest year ever and we LOVED every minute of it. We wanted to thank everyone who contacted us so we sent out some online gifts to each of our contacts with a special holiday email. These clients were treated to a special webpage with lots of free articles and helpful documents. It was our way of providing a holiday present to those we so appreciate.

We are also so proud that we were able to keep our perfect record of shipping and delivering ALL Christmas orders out in time...for the tenth year in a row!

For 2005, we have some very ambitious projects underway. Our Fabric Painting Online Resource Library should finally be opening sometime during the summer. It will offer all of our support information, lots of helpful articles, many great techniques, and be brimming with ideas.

To the library we want to add helpful video clips that will show how to do many things as well as explain them. So we will be working on those this Spring.

Our newsletter will be making a comeback, so be sure to sign up to receive it by email by completing the Request Form (at http://cameopaints.com/RequestForm2.htm) or send an email request to requests@cameopaints.com . We know you will not want to miss out on all the valuable information and offers we will pack into it.

In the meantime, please be sure to Bookmark or Add to Favorites our Specials Webpage at http://www.cameopaints.com/new.html so you can be sure to stay up on the special items, sales offers, and freebies we will add.

And be sure to let us know how we can pamper you with our attention and help.

WE WISH EACH OF YOU A VERY PROSPEROUS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Most sincerely, Diane and the Support Staff at FPC International

Stay tuned to this blog. I will be adding all of the best of our (former) BBS/Discussion/Meassage Board posts which includes a great many of what I call "Idea Shares" which are articles that have ideas with instructions and tips/hints/suggestions in them. These Idea Shares got alot of attention and acclaim from the fabric painting public at large...so do not miss them! It is definitely time to re-release those.

With Christmas almost upon us, I am working hard to keep up with demand (as we all are here) but I am so excited to be speaking with and helping so many people that I am getting up early every day being excited about starting the new day. I cannot wait to start each day. Sleeping well due to the good work and long workdays. I may not ever get my home decorated for Christmas, but I am enjoying the work!

I LOOK FORWARD TO HELPING YOU! FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME.

Exciting new Fabric Painting Online Resource Library coming soon!

Hello, Everyone!

I am so excited as I get started with my first blog. And I am excited to be able to say that the online library that I have been planning for some time is finally under progress and will appear at FabricPainting.org this next year. In the spring, we are doing some streaming video on how to do many fabric painting things like tip changing, basic shading, advanced shading, and more. These will also be available on our library website.

If you have comments, suggestions, ideas, or questions, please feel free to leave your comments here or email me: support@fabricpaint.com

Thanks for viewing!
