I fell in love with this sweet collection the first time I saw it. The details such as the hearts on the tires and the little pennant banners stole my heart. I know you will find 101 ways to use these transportation-related images. They are simple enough to use as a fabric applique but detailed enough to stand on their own as shaped cards or party décor.
I've seen these exploding boxes floating around the internet for years and love the element of surprise you get when opening one up. Of course I decided to give mine the Pazzles touch and add a paper bow and a surprise bouquet of balloons in the center.
You might have heard of Mojo Monday, card sketch blog and brainchild of Julee Tilman of Verve Stamps! (I've mentioned them in a blog before...) They are celebrating their 300th sketch, which is quite an achievement. Bravo, Mojo!
I'll admit it. I've been sucked into the chalkboard art craze and wanted to create my own little mini masterpieces for cards. Let's be honest, drawing these by hand would take way longer than I want to spend on one card, but drawing them in the Inspiration Studio Software and letting the Pen Tool do the work, sounds just right!
I have always said that the Pen Tool was my favorite tool for the Inspiration. Now, Pazzles has made my drawing dreams come true with the release of our new Pen Tool! This new Pen Tool is amazing and I am so proud to have had just a tiny part in its development. (That means I got to test it out.)
Graduation is right around the corner. There’s no better way to showcase your kids' silly side than by adding photo props to your party pics.
I am often found browsing the shops looking for bargains that I can decorate for gifts. Recently I found these cheap glass jars and knew I could jazz them up and make them look pretty with vinyl!
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the most spectacular party on Earth! It's a Circus Party for boys and girls of all ages.
Invite your girlfriends over for a fun night in with the Girl's Night cutting files from the new Party CD and digital download from Pazzles! Play one of the included games, like 'Musical Nail Polish'. Snack on tasty treats from present-shaped favor boxes. Or sit back and watch a chick flick under the 'Welcome Divas' banner with paper diamonds hanging down from the ceiling.
Once a little girl, always a little girl. As Chris, Amanda, and I were preparing for our Fairy Garden Tea Party, the pink and tulle brought out the three year old in us and we fell in love with our projects. I hope you will enjoy these projects as much as we do.
Today's collection is trendy, innovative, and actually fairly simple to use. The Cut and Fold Collection medallions, flowers, and doilies look complicated, but the Inspiration does the work for you. In fact, the completed medallions look amazing in plain cardstock, with no extra embellishments needed.

Today's 15 minute project was inspired by a Pinterest picture of a beautiful Peacock with it's feathers in full display and a caption that read "Be Fabulous." Peacock feathers have been on my mind since CHA where we spotted them as one of the current trends in paper crafting.
This pixy stix sundae one reminds me of the dime store in town where I grew up complete with a vintage milkshake machine and spinning stools. As a kid it was a trip back in time.
Got boys? This little robot Valentine is sure to please the little boys in your life. Plus it is so quick and easy to put together it is sure to delight moms too.
I'm excited for today's collection because of the potential I see in it. The Create-a-Calendar set was deigned to let you make your own custom calendars, and includes the grid, the button numbers, and a title for each month. Make a seasonal layout for each month and a matching calendar grid, and you will have an adorable calendar to give as a gift or hang in your own home. At the end of the year, disassemble the calendar, trim off the hole-punched bottoms and you will have twelve layouts for your album.
This heart card holds a necklace and makes a gift for coworkers or as class valentines. Personalize your washer necklace with the perfect sentiment for each of your friends.
We saw that quite a few of you voted for scrapbook pages when we asked what images you wanted to see in the Craft Room Library. We will happily create some complete scrapbook page cutting files in the future, but for today we wanted to showcase a layout made by pulling some existing files from the Library!
A cute origami pinwheel complete with folding instructions. Use as a full sized pinwheel or as an adorable decoration. Card includes different sentiments: "Happy 4th", "Happy Birthday", "For You", and "Celebrate"!
Button, button, who's got a button? This card centers around a big button. So go dig through your stash of buttons (we both know you have one) and find one! You can then easily coordinate your paper colors to match the button for a perfect card for any occasion. y the way, you may have noticed that today's card and yesterday's card both use stamps from Verve®. We are loving their stamps and think you will too so if you haven't already taken advantage of the coupon for 15% off all Verve stamps at www.shopverve.com maybe today should be the day! Come back tomorrow for another card in our Masculine Card series!
I love this card for a couple reasons. First of all it is a wonderful way to use up small scraps you have laying around. Secondly, it can easily be adapted to any color theme which means it is easy to make this a girl card too! I also love that it is just classic and elegant. I hope you enjoy this second card in our Masculine Card series!
June means a lot of things to me - half way through the year, summer vacation, and both Father's day and my father's birthday. So as we were thinking on projects for this month, I naturally started thinking about "man" cards. For most of us, manly cards are a struggle. There are so many options out there for girly things between ribbons, rhinestones, flowers and swirls; when it comes to the guys on the other hand I am often at a loss. Our team decided to face this challenge head on and bring you a series of masculine cards that hopefully will help you always have the card you need for the men in your life. We hope you enjoy this card series!
I was inspired to make this card for my mother because riding in a hot air balloon is on her bucket list.I have gotten so used to having the freedom to create whatever I want on the Inspiration I tend to kind of forget how "the rest of the world" lives! Shaped cards like this one are super easy to make. I made a video a while back on shaped cards so if you haven't seen it I am including it with this blog so that the next time you need a special card for a special gift you will know exactly how to make it!
The easel cards that have become popular recently seemed perfect for a Mother's Day card. I love the idea of having a card that is also a keepsake to be displayed and enjoyed. While searching for ideas, the soft florals and scallops that are prevalent in the UK right now kept popping up. I knew they would make the card even more special.
