I loved Valentine's Day as a kid. Waiting for candy and cards to fill my carefully decorated cereal box adorned with pink and red hearts was such fun! My favorite was waiting to play "Heads up Seven Up" during our classroom party. Those are truly treasured memories. Create this file folder Valentine and let coworkers fill it with Post-It note greetings. It's a perfect mailbox for the office. Don't forget to check and see if "You Got Mail"!
Hello friends, Melin here with you today sharing a masculine Valentine card. I used some Gold to go along with this month’s challenge to use Gold in your Valentine Card. Here is what I came up with. I started by cutting out my card base in kraft cardstock. My finished card size is 5 x 6.5”. I then cut a black mat, and then a kraft mat. On top of that I used all designer papers from the DCWV Industrial Chic Stack. I cut the majority of the pieces out in plain white cardstock. Then I inked and colored in the pieces with my various inks as well as a gold marker.
Judging by the amount of yelling and cheering coming from my family room this weekend, it's football playoff season, which means the big game is coming soon. To put it in terms we will all understand, it's like the National Scrapbook Day of football. Lots of cheering and yelling, good food, amazing commercials, and friends and family make this a day to celebrate. Use your Pazzles Inspiration to get in the spirit and make your own DIY football game gear.
Now is the time to take out all of those pictures you've been storing away. Make copies for all those you hold near and dear and put them inside this vintage camera box. Give it away as a gift for the next anniversary, family reunion or birthday. It may seem like a simple gift, but when packaged perfectly, it becomes a thoughtful way to remind someone of a treasured memory they've forgotten about themselves or someone they love.
It ceases to amaze me that no matter how many times I look through the Craft Room Library, I invariably come across a file that I have never noticed before! I have two young boys and they love playing their electronic games. I thought this would be a perfect card, in particular for my 15 year old son, as he does not appreciate teddies or footballs on his birthday cards!
Today I am sharing a super quick and easy card featuring files from the Craft Room Library. I wanted to create a card that could possibly work for a masculine recipient. Here is what I came up with. My finished card size is 5" x 6.5". My base was from regular Bazzill Kraft cardstock. I started by cutting a white mat an 1/8” down from my base size. I then cut another mat from patterned paper an 1/8" smaller than that, using a small grid patterned paper. Next, I used the Chevron Paper Lace file from the library and sized it to 4.5" x 6". I cut it from regular blue cardstock. I then used the Downy Feather file and cut two of them from another piece of patterned paper.
All aboard the Pazzles Express! An emergency stop... neither here nor there. The Pazzles Express Conductor has lost his hat. As the silent snow fell gently around the train he leaned out the window to catch a snowflake on his tongue. Whoosh went his hat and we've sent out a team of explorers to find it. Join us for 12 days as we take you on a Christmas adventure through the wintry world of Pazzles Christmas land. Hand over your boarding passes and hop aboard! For all the little conductors that are having fun playing with the Pazzles Express, here is a little hat that will put them in perfect conductor spirit. Chooo Chooo!!
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.
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.
Today we are discussing the modern graphic style which features crisp clean images, lots of white space and a side of cute.
10 Shadow box window cards with interchangeable borders, tags, and frames for endless creative ideas!
There are a lot of really great images here in the Craft Room library—designs that range from basic silhouettes to the more elaborate paper piecing images. I love the little details in paper piecing designs. That got me thinking how much fun these die cuts can be on a scrapbook page or card, like moving propellers on planes or rotating wheels on cars and buses and even windows and doors that open and close. It reminded me how awesome all those pop up books were when I was a kid.
My family is a full of fishermen. They live for fly fishing, and spend many free hours trying to catch the biggest fish. I was so thrilled when Tatum designed the Gone Fishing Cutting Collection, and I put them right to good use making gifts for the fishermen in my life. This masculine themed cutting collection features all the pieces of a fisherman's hobby and will make creating cards and gifts for men a breeze.

These cute boats would be perfect way to keep kids entertained. Race them across a pool, or out on the creek. Not only are they simple to assemble but you can create several in no time!
Recently, during one of Klo's Classroom Tutorials, she showed us how to create cascade cards using Inspiration Studio software. The Cascade Card cutting file was added to the Pazzles Craft Room as well. I love the 3D card and was keen to have a go myself and create a card for my husband who used to have a moustache in the early days of our marriage. Cards for men are so difficult to make and I wanted this card to have a fun element to it.
Tatum recently spent a Sunday on the golf course and had such a great time she couldn't get golfing off her mind. Her day of fun, learning a new skill, resulted in a new bonus collection for the Craft Room. Introducing the Sunday Golf Club Cutting Collection with all of the bits and pieces familiar to seasoned golfers and novices alike.
Most of us want to make the cards we give to anyone in our family as special as we possibly can. I often am told that cards for Dad can be a challenge. Maybe it is because we are trying to say so much in one little card, or maybe we want the message to be unique and not silly or trivial. Whatever the reason, it seems that no card will ever say it all.
Thanks for creating along with us this week as we build our Father's Day Tool Belt. Today is the final set of tools: a hammer, screwdriver, level and two pencils. These images are simply cut out and pieced together, simple as that!
No tool set is complete without a measuring tape, and what could be better than a candy-filled one? It may not actually be able to serve its purpose as a measuring device but it will make dad smile when he sees it clipped to the Fathers Day Tool Belt. Instructions are included with this part of the project because the measuring tape requires some assembly.
Today you begin to fill the pockets of Dad's tool belt by spelling the word D-A-D using common tools that every Dad can recognize. Make the treat even better by backing each tool with one of his favorite candies. A sweet treat for a sweet guy, what father can resist that message?
This week we are focusing on the men in our lives with a tool belt gift set. Each day this week we will add another element to the belt and by the weekend your belt will be complete and ready for gift giving.
