Pazzles designer Tatum created the beautiful card you see above with the free camouflage heart file. You may use the free file for your card, but it is not a requirement. We've also added a beautiful military themed Proud To Serve Cutting Collection to the Pazzles store which you may purchase at 50% off today only.
We hope you enjoyed Christine's class and learned something new! It's time for another free file and coordinating challenge. Once you have your card making supplies spread out in front of you, do you ever feel like you don't know where to start? Sometimes you need a little direction to get you started. Sketches provide that perfect starting point and are one of the easiest ways for a beginner to get started. If sketches are great, then cuttable sketches are fabulous! All the work is done. As you've probably guessed, this hour's free file is a sketch and a variety of card sentiments. We asked the Pazzles Design Team to inspire you with their creations and as usual they've blown us away!
We hope you are feeling inspired to create. Here's another great idea for you to try! Sometimes two great things come together and it can change the world! Think peanut butter and jelly, Big Macs and special sauce, or Han Solo and Chewbacca. Today a new dynamic duo is born with the pairing of a Miss Kate Cuttables image and a brand new Fun Fold Card Base.
Join Christine in the classroom at 4:00 MDT for a live class on making Cut-Away Cards. Click here to watch the recorded Cut Away Cards Class.
Hour two starts now! If you are a Craft Room member be sure and join us in the Member Chat area where we are getting to know one another and playing games! We get many requests for shaped cards in various forms and they are always a hit when new ones are released. We can't possibly create a shaped card from every shape in the Craft Room Library, but you can! Imagine the possibilities when you can turn any shape into a card. We have an excellent video in the Craft Room that shows the technique for doing so. We've unlocked this video so it is available for anyone to view : Making Shaped Cards. To get you started Pazzles Designer Michelle has made an acorn shaped card perfect for fall gift giving. It can also be made smaller and used as a place card for holiday meals.
Welcome to World Card Making Day (WCMD) 2013! We are excited to have you join us for the next 5 hours. We promise to entertain and inspire you! To start off we have a special treat for you! Pazzles Designer Klo Oxford got her hands on this brand-new Chamberry Collection from Adornit and she created this beautiful card to share with you. She designed the card specifically to highlight the shape and design of the sentiment sticker found on the Choose Happy Sticker sheet. You will love this unique card she designed for this hour's free file!
Time to get this party started! The first file and challenge will go live shortly! If you are […]
We'll get this party started TODAY at 2pm MDT! See you then!
While this may not be an exciting addition to your skill set, it is an important aspect of using your Inspiration Studio Software. Taking apart your file and then putting it back together again can seem overwhelming with large layered projects. This video walks you through the steps and gives you some great tips. ~Michelle It is funny how we can so clearly see the way a finished scrapbook page is put together. There is a bottom layer which is usually a full sheet of cardstock. Then there is another large layer: maybe a scalloped circle. Over that is a title with a mat: 2 more layers. The title has a flourish; there are some cute flowers and leaves and frames for holding photos. It is layer over layer that we have no problem understanding.
I'll admit I tend to jump on the bandwagon pretty easily when it comes to trends. I've had a shaped photos phase, and an eyelet phase, and a chevron phase and now I've moved on to the chalkboard art trend. It began making an appearance in advertisements and on websites and has now made it's way into the scrapbooking world and home décor. Many of the latest released scrapbook collections have elements of this trend. My Mind's Eye Chalk Studio and Simple Stories December Documented come to mind. Die Cuts With A View has a Chalkboard Paper Stack and Canvas Corp sells sheets of Chalkstock.

Today we have a special surprise! We are pleased to announce that Miss Kate Cuttables is joining the Craft Room Library. Craft Room members will have access to 20 fun, fresh files each month designed by the talented artist behind Miss Kate Cuttables. These files will be available in both WPC and SVG file formats.

When the tooth fairy visits my house it is always a big deal! I love this latest collection designed by Tatum because it brings extra magic into the whole process. The Tooth Fairy Treasures Cutting Collection is full of treasures and trinkets to help you celebrate. Whether you make up the floss box and the tooth brush holder in preparation of the big day, or leave behind the tooth fairy invoice and a tooth fairy gold coin on the big night, this collection will be a hit!
I'm a little nuts about cute critters and when I spotted this Woodland Squirrel in the Craft Room Library I knew he needed a little time in the spotlight. He is the focus of this quick card, and he looks rather pleased with himself.
Please join me in welcoming our newest Pazzles Design Team Members. We are thrilled to have these ladies on board for 2013-2014 and cannot wait to see what they will create.
Three easy to make vinyl signs for some truly spook-tacular Halloween decor!
Today we are finishing up our style discussion with the trendy contemporary collage style, which features layers of paper, a mix of textures and fun, hip color schemes. Colors: The Contemporary Collage style is anything goes when it comes to selecting colors. Choose one color and use various shades of it for a monochromatic ombre look, or pick a trendy color combination to highlight. Mint and gray come to mind right now when I think of trendy color combinations, and navy blue and yellow are hot colors as well.
The lucky random winner of the Lawn Fawn Prize Pack is… Jodi Corbett! Congratulations, Jodi. Be on the lookout for an email from us. Thanks everyone for participating.
The cards fold flat for mailing and then pop-up and stand on their own once they are opened. The set includes numbers one through ten, a plain birthday pop-up, a set of decorative edges and a special envelope to mail or deliver your card in.
The calendar says fall is on it's way in the United States, but the sun is still shining here in Kuna, ID as we are set to reach 93 degrees today. It's the perfect time to fit in one last camping trip. You probably won't find creatures as adorable as these Lawn Fawn characters in the real woods, so make up a s'mores kit and a tree shaped treat container and take these sweet creatures with you.
It's a blast from the past! Nostalgia buffs and children at heart will love our latest Cutting Collection called Retro Toys. We've brought back all the favorites from our 80's childhood and put them in one collection.
There are just a few more days to get your August Challenge entries in. The Pazzles Design Team took the challenge and came up with some outstanding projects to inspire you!
I love to give personalized or handmade gifts, but the time factor is always my downfall. I usually have good intentions but end up running around the store in a panic the night before an event looking for something I can give as a gift.
School lunch is a big deal in the life of an elementary student. My kids love cold lunch as the hot lunch choices are not always to their liking, and my daughter likes to eat the same exact thing every single day. We spent some time this weekend picking out the perfect lunchboxes for the new school year and making sure their names were written on everything. I have one more little trick up my sleeve to make lunchtime fun and that is where today's project comes in.
