I used them to make a Halloween banner last year which you can find here. I have used the Cut and Fold Medallions on cards before, but not quite like this.

School is winding down, or over for the summer here in the US and it won't be long until the famous summer boredom sets in. Coming up with activities to answer those complaints is a parent's summer homework. Luckily you have the world's best DIY machine, so you'll be able to ace that homework. Here are five craft projects you can make with your kids using your Inspiration. Next time you have a child five inches from your face complaining that there is nothing to do, you'll be prepared. 1. Paper Sailboats Cut these out of white paper and let the kids decorate them. After they're done designing, get them laminated so they'll last for a bit.
It's time for another Cut and Paste Sketch idea. I love using these when I need a quick card, and I hope you find them really useful too. This card is the perfect opportunity to use up some scraps. The tags can be cut from little pieces of leftover papers and I think the more random they are, the better it will turn out. Share your creations with us on Facebook, in the Pazzles Albums, or on Instagram with #pazzlescutandpaste. We'll be on the lookout to see your creations!

Hello crafty friends, Melinda with you today sharing a quick and easy card you can make in no time at all! For my card I used the Fancy Floral Frame cut file I found in the Craft Room. When I saw it, I thought...what a gorgeous file. I made my card base a 5" x 6.5" size. So I sized the frame a quarter inch smaller. I wondered how it would cut and was not disappointed. It cut beautifully. I then turned to my In The Moment stamp set. I stamped the flourished frame stamp with my Versamark Ink Pad and heat embossed it with some gold embossing powder. I then used my Cashmere Ink Pad to stamp the sentiment. I cut the sentiment out and then used some foam tape under it to give it a little lift. I then added a bow and a Prima flower from my stash. The green mat and the colored mat under the frame are patterned papers from the DCWV Dear Jane Stack. The base was Colonial White Cardstock. I finished it off by putting some pearl accents around the stamping. The card doesn't have too much on it as I really wanted the frame to be the focal point of the card, as it is such a beautiful file. This card came together fast and beautifully!

If you have a friend in need of a little cheering up, you can take the cupcake shop right to them with this cupcake carrier. Take a peek inside this little cupcake shop and you'll find a rather sweet guest. I know he's sweet, because immediately after taking the photos, I ate him. One of the best things about being a paper crafter is that we are able to create so much joy with our projects. It makes us happy to make them and give them away, and it makes others so delighted to receive such special gifts.
