Schoolhouse Mini Album (or Wedding ...

Over the last few weeks, I have been watching my friends post over on Facebook their first day of school pictures. It has been especially fun to see those that have seniors, because they are posting both the very first day of school ever photos, along with first day of senior year. As I have been seeing these photos, it really got me more excited about this weeks project of the Schoolhouse Mini Album. As I worked on this album, I also realized, it could very easily become a church. What a great way to display some of your favorite wedding day photos, or what about a baptism or confirmation?

September Challenge

For September's Challenge we are going to be focusing on the Distortion Tool. This is an easy tool to use, but is also very under used, because I think that we sometimes forget it is there. If you haven't used or discovered this tool yet, there is a video (about 3/4 down page) as well as our class from Tuesday, August 30, 2011 to help you see some of the potential and fun of this tool

Drink Collar

August is here and for many of you that means the heat is really settling in. So this project is just a little reminder to HYDRATE yourself! Drink that water people! This cute and simple project is great for mass producing water bottles for any outdoor event including sports games, practices, weddings, and pool parties. Today's project is also special because we are giving it away to EVERYONE for FREE. Just a little gift from us to you to thank you for being part of the Pazzles family! We are also providing the SVG for this cutting file for those of you that are using MTC or SCAL with your Inspiration!

Sunday we will not be having a class. I will be traveling home from Tulsa this day and when I get home we are going to be celebrating my son, Jared's, 25th birthday. Many of you you know that he is mentally handicapped and have participated in sending cards, so I will be sure to take pictures and share in his delight with all the mail. Tuesday is going to be a fun filled class of working with the Scissors....the Decorative ones. There are so many things you can do with this extremely fun function and we are going to be working with them, so you can have as much fun with them as I do.

Congratulations to our August Challenge ...

Congratulations to wranglersport for participating in the August Word Book Challenge. It was so much fun to see everyones amazing word books. I love all of the different looks, all done with the same basic concept. What an amazing thing that we can do with our cutters to make it even more valuable to us. If you haven't taken the time to go look at all of the great word books, go here now and do that.

Classes this week

Sunday, there will be No Class, I will be traveling home from Nashville, TN. Tuesday we will be showing you how use the Single Stroke Files that are in the Pazzles Image Library. If you haven't had a chance to see these really fun files, go take a look and then come and learn some fun things to do with them. Come and join us. If you haven't ever joined us, make this the week that you come and learn with us live. Just go here. I look forward to meeting you.

August Challenge-Word Book or Word ...

Word Books have been around for a while. Did you know that the 'craze' got a huge boost when one of our Pazzles Design Team member created one on her Pazzles machine many years ago? I love using word books in the 'non-traditional' way. I have made them smaller and used them as a card, plus I think they would be great to use as a birthday party. Cut them out for everyone and let them assemble them, using photos from the party would not only be a fun activity, but a great party favor. I would love to see what you create. Even if you are a new to your Pazzles creating wordbooks is something you CAN do, because basically you are using a square and letters.

Class Info for this Week

Sunday there will be NO class. I will be traveling home from Pennsylvania. Tuesday-Paper Piecing-We will be doing what I consider the 'classic/original' type paper piecing. I will be showing you how to make all the pieces work together. If you haven't joined us for a class yet, here is how you get there.

Watermelon Mini Album

Watermelon Mini Album

Summertime is the time for picnics, family reunions, BBQs, etc. and with those events, there is almost always my favorite VEGETABLE and FRUIT (yes, it is considered by many to be both)... WATERMELON. In addition to loving the way it tastes, I love the memories that are attached to it for me from my youth. Whether it was putting it in a net and tying it off so we could put it in the river to keep it cold, or the actual first time I got to see a watermelon bust (they actually dropped it in the middle of the table and it made a yummy mess) or making watermelon balls for grandma's salad. I have always associated watermelon with summertime fun.

Classes for this week

There will be no class on Sunday. I will be out of town. Tuesday we will be working on the Tube File that was talked about in Sunday's Q & A Class. So while it will be a technique class, it is also going to be a project class as well, so don't miss it. If you haven't joined us for a class before, now is a great time to do that. The classes are live and interactive and it doesn't matter if you are new or a pro, you can always join in. Classes generally last about one hour, so make yourself an appointment to be there, I look forward to seeing you.
