Gift baskets make such a great gift for so many occasions and the gift is even better when the basket itself is adorable. Today I've created a movie date night gift basket that is perfect for an anniversary or wedding gift. Change the tag and it becomes the perfect gift for a teenager.
When it came time to create a card for my oldest granddaughter, D'aijha, who will be turning 14 years old next week I knew I had to do something in purple and pink with just a little bling. If something is purple, pink, or sparkles, then she loves it. With the freedom my Pazzles gives me, I was able to really customize this card to her personality.
I'm excited to share this week's collection with you. I think its a fun idea that you can use over and over. The concept is like the Jelly of the Month Club, but way cuter. I'm planning to use this for Mother's Day, but its a great gift for teenagers too. The first time you give the gift, start with the current month and then every month on the same day you deliver the next candy carton. Its a gift that keeps giving for an entire year. In the instructions I've included a list of candy ideas that match the theme and tag of each month.
I created the puzzle piece boxes for a very special reason. My son has ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) and one of the symbols for Autism is the puzzle piece. The month of April is Autism Awareness month, and April 2, 2016 is the eighth annual World Autism Awareness Day.
A super quick and easy flourished clover card for St. Patrick's Day or whenever you want to wish someone good luck!
This month's template is in honor of Pi Day. I realize it is not the actual Pi sign, but I thought it would be fun to do a play on words and make a Pie Shaped Template. This template could be used for a game night, cooking, or any other fun and creative thing you would like. Use the pie pieces to put photos on or add creative journaling. The sky is the limit

I am generally a person that likes to have many photos on my pages, but once in awhile you capture a photo that deserves it's own special page. This is one of those photos. Willow hadn't been feeling well and had been sick off and on with a fever for about 10 days. She had been sleeping and trying to get better and her puppy was generally close by. Puddy has always liked Willow, but they weren't always close. Anyway, in recent weeks they have gotten to be better friends and as you can see, it has really grown into a special love. Willow calls Puddy her 'puppy brother' and it is nice to see them loving each other and Puddy taking care of Willow while she gets better.
A pretty card created with a St. Patrick's day theme but can be used any time of the year to thank someone or remind them how much you appreciate their friendship.
While cards are a nice gesture to express your sentiments, sometimes you want to give just a little bit more. Perhaps it is a specially made cookie or a few premier type chocolates. On those occasions a card is not quite the right presentation. What you need is a creative way to disguise that treat. A custom made treat bag is the perfect solution. This month's project pattern is a treat bag with six interchangeable flaps. The flap elements are in a classic style and will work for any occasion depending on the paper you choose. The treat bag will fit the small portion size zipper bags found at Walmart or any clear bag that is 3.5" wide.

One of the things I love most about my Inspiration Vue is the Pen Tool. My love affair with the Pen Tool is a result of my bad handwriting. I always wanted to add handwritten journaling to my scrapbook pages, but I always felt like my handwriting messed up the page. Besides fake handwriting, I love it for card sentiments. I love being able to design the sentiment I want in the exact size and shape I want.
