Embossed Circle Doily with Pillow Box


At the Pazzles Craft Room the April Challenge is ready for your entries.  
The Challenge this month is "To create or do something new with your Pazzles Inspiration".

Pazzles Craft Room has thousands of images, hundreds of videos, and one low price.

I decided to have a go at using the embossing tool and was over the moon with my success.  I had purchased the embossing tool and embossing mat months ago.  I hadn't tried it out properly because I was too scared to prepare the mat, sounds silly, but true. 


So, I logged onto the Pazzles Craft Room and found a fantastic video tutorial by Christine, in the Tools and Accessories section, that showed me just how to prepare my mat and use my Pazzles Embossing tool.  


I found a Scallop Circle doily flower in the Pazzles Craft Room which was just perfect as an embellishment to the pillow box.  


 I first embossed the Core'dinations cardstock and cut the doily out.  When I removed it from my embossing mat I sanded it down gently.....result!  

I carefully cut a slit from the edge of the doily to the centre and overlapped it slightly to give a cupped effect.


I then cut out my Pillow Box and leaves, and assembled my project.

Supplies used:-
Electronic Die Cutting Machine - Pazzles Inspiration Creative Cutter
Pazzles Inspiration Embossing Tool & Embossing Mat
Pillow Box, Doily & Leaves - Pazzles Craft Room
Kaisercraft Bundle of Joy - The Mulberry Bush
Cordinations Cardstock - Flutterby Crafts

I am glad that I have entered this project into the Pazzles April Challenge as it gave me the push to "challenge myself" at having a go at trying my embossing tool and mat that may have otherwise be still sat in the cupboard! 

Having tried this challenge I am excited to try out more projects using my Pazzles Tools.
