Mat-Ready — Preparing Your Embossing Mat
Michelle's beautiful Embossed Snowflake Tags have inspired a lot of our Pazzles peeps to try their own embossing projects. The Pazzles embossing tool was one of the first tools I invented for our electronic die cutters and it remains a favorite to this day. The embossing mat is the key to getting a beautiful impression. You can make it work better and last longer by spending time to prep it correctly.

Rosette Snowflake Cutting Collection: WPC, ...
It's been lightly snowing in Kuna, Idaho the past few days, but the best snowfall has been inside the Pazzles office. While my office floor is covered with paper scraps, the office snowfall I'm referring to is the beautiful layered snowflakes lighting up the office.

Happy New Year!!
Happy New Year from all of us at Pazzles! We want to thank all our loyal Pazzles friends for blessing us with a wonderful 2012. 2013 marks the 10th year since we introduced the computerized electronic cutting system to the Scrapbooking and Paper Crafting community. We knew then that our cutting system was going to revolutionize the way we cut paper. What we could not have known was how our lives would be changed by all the amazing people we have met along the way.

Embossed Snowflake Pocket Tags
Embossing is the name of the game for today's 15 minute project. I grabbed an embossing tool to play with and the ideas started coming.

Chalkboard Message Frame
There are just a few days left until the New Year. Take a few moments to reflect on the ones you love, who have meant the most to you in 2012, and what kind of sentiments you can write down to let them know just how much you care. This is a great project that takes a simple photo frame (which I painted in a trendy green) and our chalkboard and wall vinyl to create the perfect message board.

What is a Dongle Key
There have been a lot of questions and discussion about the Dongle Key lately. I thought this would be a great time to clarify any confusion about what the key does and when you might want to have one.

Finished Custom Buttons — Money Saving Tip: Make Your ...
One of the most frustrating things for me is not having the exact right color or size of embellishment for my project. The most frequent offender is buttons. The one with the perfect color will be too big. The right-sized ones will be just off-color enough to be off-putting.

Mason Jar Paper Snow Globes
Two of the most popular trends this season are mason jars and snow globes. I've combined both for today's 15 minute project and made a waterless paper snow globe.

Yule Log and Winter Page ...
In many parts of the world we are experiencing the short days and cold of winter. For me, this means snuggling up by a warm fire with a good book or old movie. If asked what scents define winter I would definitely put pine, wood and cinnamon at the top of the list! Maybe that is why woodgrain is a popular theme in the paper arts community.
