Since it is harvest time in most places, we thought it would be fun to use that as our theme. Fruit is really trending, so you may find something fun to do with that. Or do a layout or create a card on what harvest time means to you. We are so excited to see the fun ideas you come up for this.

Is it morning yet? Or should I say is it coffee time yet? Ok really, when is it not coffee time? This coffee cup box and gift card holder set would make a perfect gift for anyone on your list who likes coffee. You can fill the cup with biscotti or coffee flavored candy, specialty creamers or really any treat your recipient enjoys. I plan on giving this set to my husband, for a just because gift. I used the print and cut feature to print “I love you more than coffee” on the Gift Card Holder and then cut the Latte cup file out and attached it with an Action Wobble Spring.
Today we have a special weekend treat. A few of our Design Team Members have created some special projects for you using the Spellbinders Digital Dies. If you aren't familiar with the Spellbinders Digital Dies, you can view all of the available files in our online store and/or watch the Spellbinders Launch video showing how they can be used. And be sure and check back Monday for a brand new release of new dies. Design Team Member Belle Donaghey used the Spellbinders Label 9 Digital Collection to make this beautiful Happy Birthday card.
Halloween is a fun holiday. It gives adults a chance to dress up and be silly, and gives kids a chance to eat lots of candy. There’s a lot of traditions that take place on this spooky night. My favorite as a kid was when my mom would fry up all the pumpkin seeds. She had the best recipe ever! It was as simple as frying the seeds in a stick of butter with salt until they’re golden brown. Yummy!! Then my friends and I would get ready for a night of trick or treating. We would go to the neighborhood across town where the houses were close together and you could show off your costume. It was the perfect time of year to scare all the little kids without getting in trouble! No matter what you find yourself doing this Hallows Eve, spread the fun to neighbors on your street and use this cute “Boo’ed” set to leave a splendid Halloween treat!

I was so inspired by the new Inspiration Vue Print and Cut that I knew I had to do a project for you using it. On your way to a party? Running out the door and stopping at a store to get a gift? This happens to me way too many times to count, and being a crafter people expect a little more from your gift wrapping. Most of the time there is just no time to do all that extra stuff. So how about we fancy up our store bought gift bags with a ready made tag? They are so easy to make in the software.
Create beautiful monogramed tags and place over burlap bags for an elegant country gift. Perfect for wedding favors!
Hi fellow crafters, Joanna here today with my Teacher Appreciation gift bag. I work in a school, as a Teaching Assistant, and I know that teachers love receiving little gifts of appreciation from their students. They don’t need to be expensive, but handmade gifts which include chocolate are always appreciated!!!! Firstly, I created my bag using Kraft Card and the box cutting file from the Teacher's Chair Valentine Project. I then used the Paper Clipboard cutting file which I resized to fit onto the front and back of my box. I layered the School Word Set Title cutting file to the front of the lined paper from the Paper Clipboard file. I then Print and Cut the lined paper with the colored title.

Birthdays are a big deal at my house. My mom always made birthdays special with a handmade decorated cake and our favorite box of sugary breakfast cereal waiting for us. It was the only time we got sugary cereal and it was a huge deal to open that box. I'm carrying on the big birthday celebration at my own house. When a birthday comes along we celebrate! I spotted this birthday sign idea on Pinterest a few years ago and I've wanted to make one. Vinyl week happens to coincide with my son's birthday month, so it was the perfect time to whip it up.

It’s that wonderful time of the year when the kids go back to school and football practice starts. You know, the time of the year when you want to put stuff all over your car to support your child. The decals sold at my son's school are the ones that look like someone printed them out on clear plastic or white plastic and slapped it on their car. Not this Pazzles girl! My inspiration for my project today is our school shirt and our motto Pride Matters. I scanned my shirt and took the lion and vectorized it. With very little clean up and resizing it came out beautiful.
Today DT member Heidi Edwards continues vinyl week with a cool bleach resist T-shirt. She has included instructions for this fun project so you can make your own. 1. First I found an image that I liked in the Pazzles Craft Room. Then I cut it out using Pazzles Permanent Vinyl. I used Vinyl Transfer Tape to transfer the cut out image to my shirt. I pressed it down really hard, to be sure it was stuck to the shirt, being sure I pressed all the edges down well. I peeled the transfer tape off and ran my finger firmly over the more detailed parts of the design, just to be sure. 2. I put the shirt on a platen so the bleach would not soak through to the back. A big piece of cardboard will work just as well. Then I just sprayed it with a bleach cleaner. I know you can use a mixture of water and bleach but the bleach cleaner was handy and worked great. I used a misting bottle. You can get one at Walmart in the travel section.
I recently helped host a baby shower. I wanted something that helped showcase baby’s gifts and came up with this string lights banner. I wanted to use a thin font that had extra details and pieces that I wouldn’t typically use for paper crafting, yet the font worked like a charm using vinyl! I used some scraps of ribbon in an assortment of colors, and tied them along the string of lights. I think it turned out cute, and was a great way to “light” up the special day.
Even though summer is winding down and I can feel the weather getting a little cooler, nothing stops my sweet tooth when it comes to ice cream. I created this project for a birthday bash, or just to let someone special know that they’re the sprinkles on your sundae. This project would also make a great cake topper or invitation to your last summer ice cream social. So before summer melts away, get in on the scoop here in the Craft Room and satisfy your craving for a sweet project!

I love baking with my daughter and enjoy all those special memories we create while doing so. We decided to make some cupcakes and make some quick and easy cut outs for our cupcakes using Wilton Sugar Sheets and the Pazzles Pastry Starter Kit. For these cupcakes we used the Large Flower, Flower Bunch and the Butterfly cutting files which can all be found in the Pazzles Craft Room Library.
Easel cards are just so fun to create with it! For my card base I used a 6" x 6" base and scored at 3". To accent my card I used several cutting files from the Craft Room Library; Decorative Round Background, Layered Flower as well as a butterfly from the Inspiration Studio Pro 2014 image gallery. For the flowers I simply added dimensional dots to add dimension, a gem and a bit of stickles to the edges.
One of the cool new features in the InVue software is our new Pazzles Project Patterns. You have to see this in action to understand the full possibilities, but let me assure you-it is awesome! The InVue software comes with four Project Patterns and we will be adding more each month. Essentially you open a Project Pattern and you see a sketch (layout or card). Several pieces of the sketch are "replaceable". You click on the replaceable shape and then select a predesigned coordinating image from a drop down menu. The image automatically replaces the selected shape and resizes the new shape to fit perfectly. Here is an idea of what can be done. When you open the project it will look like this:
Includes all of the pieces a teacher needs to get her students' day started. Keep track of the month, day of the week and the weather. Record and celebrate special occasions with birthday cupcakes and lost teeth.
Several weeks ago one of my friends stopped by with a mason jar full of cookies. The gift was tied up with ribbons and a cute tag. It wasn't my birthday, or my anniversary. I wasn't sick or in need in any way. She just brought me cookies for no reason at all and it absolutely made my day! For this week's project I created two different paper purses. The completed purses measure around 6", but you can certainly resize them to fit whatever gift you choose to give. They are easy to assemble and you can customize them in so many ways.
