Bee Happy

Print&Cut,bee card,pazzles,cuttingfiles

Have you ever made a card and thought the combination of the paper and images just work? Well, that's what I think about this card.  When a project comes together it makes me "Bee Happy".  It's not often I feel this way with my projects, but I have fallen in love with this happy bee which I have cut using my 
Pazzles cutting machine.

Print&Cut,pazzles,misskatecuttables,

I have used a Miss Kate Cuttables file which is FREE to Pazzles Craft Room members.  In fact every 2 weeks Miss Kate Cuttables cutting files releases files ready for you to download.  I love the soft colours and the fact that they come as cuttable files in SVG and WPC file format for cutting machines.  I also love the fact that the cuttable files can be used for Print & Cut projects.

  


Print&Cut,svg,wpc,

Here, I have printed onto my patterned paper using the font to match the colour of the eyes of the bee.

For the novelty factor, I have added an Action Wobble to the back of the image and I just can't help smiling when it wobbles!

Please hop over to the Pazzles Craft Room, HERE for full details on how I made this card using my Pazzles Inspiration.

Although, I am able to Print & Cut this image using my Pazzles Inspiration, just think how awesome it will be to create a ton of Print & Cut files using the NEW Inspiration Vue™ cutting machine.  It was recently launched by Pazzles, which has the benefit of an optical eye for precision cutting.....I just can't wait for mine to arrive.

I have Print & Cut some gorgeous Miss Kate Cuttable svg/wpc files which are available for FREE to Pazzles Craft Room members in the Pazzles Library.  I love these cutting files as you have the ability to Print & Cut them as well as paper piecing.  For further details on how I created the toppers, please head over to the Pazzles Craft Room to read my FULL blog post.

Bow cutting file, Easter

I decided to paint the flower pot using Jo Sonja's acrylic paint with an ordinary household sponge, to avoid brush strokes.  I then cut myself some strips of patterned paper which I folded into a bow to decorate the flower pot.

These files are available to download in the Pazzles Craft Room.

I wish you all a Happy Easter.

Bunny Tails

Easter, bunny tails, svg, wpc, cutting files, pazzles, die cutting

I love making tags for gifts, and I couldn't resist attaching this tag to a bucket of marshmallows with the sentiment "Bunny Tails", using my Pazzles Inspiration Vue cutting machine.

$99 Craft Room Vue 468x60

 I used elements from the Easter Bunny Candy Wrapper found in the Pazzles Craft Room Library.

Basically, I turned it around so I could highlight the bunny tail from the back! I just created an extra circle shape in my Pazzles software to make the body......easy done by selecting the circle shape tool.

I cut out all my elements and inked around the edges using a soft pink ink pad, not forgetting to add on the fluffy bunny tail!

I used the Scalloped Square Tag but omitted the scallop.  I added patterned paper and added an outline of  the tag for my pink cardstock.

Finally, I generated my own sentiment and tied the tag around my bucket filled with "bunny tails" using some Trendy Twine.

Carrot tags

Carrots, tag, svg, wpc, cutting files, pazzles

I bought these chocolate mints from a local shop here in the UK, and thought they would make an alternative gift at Easter.  I found also these cute little carrots in the Pazzles Craft Room projects section which made a perfect tag.


I was quite pleased with myself, as I made this little box from scratch, using my Pazzles software and covered it with an acetate wrap.


Just a little bit of Trendy Twine wrapped around the box and threaded through the tag, made this gift cute enough for any Easter Bunny to eat!

Now, I am going to grab myself a coffee and eat those 2 remaining chocolate mints!

Huggable Chicks

Chicks, Easter, cutting files, dimensional bow

Apologies for the photograph, but I could not get the lighting right on this one, don't know, why but anyhow, I love how the chicks are hugging an Easter Egg!  This cutting file is from the recently released LD Lil Peanuts cutting files, and you should give it a go, as it it so quick and easy to put together.


Simply, cut all the elements and layer.  I added some double sided tape behind the eggs and a glue dot onto each of the chicks wings to secure the egg.


These make quick fun Easter gifts for the kids.


I also added a 3D Dimensional bow from the 
Pazzles Craft Room Library to decorate my tin.


Hope you like the inspiration and be sure to head over to the links below to see all the cutting files available.

Decorated Gift Box

Upcycled box, gift box, flowers, svg, pazzles, cutting machine

Today, I am sharing with you my latest Pazzles Design Team project over at the Pazzles Craft Room.  I recently received a lovely box of Truffles.  Once I had eaten all the truffles, I decided to decorate it rather that put it in the recycling bin!


I layered some of my recently purchased patterned paper on the outside of the lid and around the base of the box.


Then, using my Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine, I cut several flowers, hot glued them to the top of the lid and added some pearls.


The combination of the flowers and papers make this such a pretty box, that it now adorns my dressing table to hold my jewellery.

Please head over to the Pazzles Craft Room to read my FULL blog post including further details how I made it using my cutting machine.

Easter Egg Tag - Miss Kate Cuttables

Easter Egg tag, easter gift, chick, Miss Kate Cuttables, Pazzles, svg

Whilst the kids are on their school holidays, I thought I would never have time to make any projects!  However, I found this cute Chick in Egg by Miss Kate Cuttables over in the Pazzles Craft Room Library and thought it would make a quick gift tag.



For speed, I Print & Cut the bottom layer of the chick.  You just need to spend a bit of time layering all the pieces, whilst referring to the copy, so that you get it layered up correctly using your software.  I then paper pieced the shell of the egg to give it egg-stra dimension cutting it our using my Pazzles Inspiration.

I also used a tag shape to layer my pieces, click image below. 


I used some twine and wrapped it round my little Kilner Jar.  I also decorated the top of my jar with some patterned paper from my stash.  I love how the lid comes apart just like the Mason Jars you see in the USA.

Finally, I filled my Kilner Jar with Haribo eggs.....my kids just love these and so do I, yummy!

Here, is a link to my YouTube Print & Cut tutorial  using my Pazzles which may help.  I made it a couple of years ago, so it's not perfect!
