Pencil Box - Pazzles Design Team

I work as a Reception Teaching Assistant in a local school with adorable 4-5 year olds.  I love my job!  Here is a Pencil Box gift I made for the teachers going back to school.  

It is a super quick project for teachers and kiddos.  You don't have to fill it with pencils but you could also fill it with your felt tips pens or coloured pencils.

It is super easy to make your own embellishment using the Pazzles software and coloured textured cardstock.

Apple Shaped Card - Pazzles Design Team

Here is my Apple Shaped Card for my recent Pazzles Design Team project.  Shaped cards always excite me and is the reason I bought my Pazzles Inspiration creative cutter.

However, with the ability to Print and Cut my own toppers extends my creativity whilst saving money creating my own embellishments.

Above, I have created my Print and Cut insert using fonts and adding images.  I also designed my own lined paper, the possibilities are endless.

Teacher Pencils - Back To School

For those of you that follow my blog, know that during the week I work as a Teaching Assistant in a local Primary School.  Here in the UK, we went back to school today!  I work in the Reception Department of the school with the adorable new intake of squeaky clean  4-5 year olds!

So, I thought I would welcome back to school the 3 teachers in my department with some Rolo Gift Wrapped Teacher Pencils.  Knowing teachers, they will want to open the packet by the time their coffee break has arrived!!

There are a ton of YouTube video tutorials, but I decided that I would Print and Cut my gifts so that I could personalise each one.  I used the Quick and Easy Valentine Pencil cutting file available in the projects section of the Pazzles Craft Room.  Check out the link (above) which gives further details.

I laid my gingham paper onto my cutting mat.  I typed and positioned the teacher's names on the main part of the pencil wrapper.  I then Print and Cut using the registration marks and the unique Pazzles Print and Cut mat with my Pazzles Inspiration Vue cutting machine.

It is easy to assemble the project using your printed paper, Hershey Kiss, Rollo tube, silver, and pink cardstock, for the eraser. Adhere your Hershey Kiss to one end of the Rolo, then roll the wrapper around the chocolate candy, then adhere you pink and silver cardstock to the other end.

If you are member of the Pazzles Craft Room the download to this cutting file is FREE! The file is available in WPC, SVG and AI file formats.

Teacher Appreciation Gift Bag

Here, is my Teacher Appreciation Gift Bag as part of the my Pazzles Design Team project for this month.  Here, in the UK the kids have just returned back to school and so it's fitting to make a little gift for the teacher!  

Using my InVue software with my new Inspiration Vue cutting machine made this so easy to make.  I loved decorating the Hershey Kisses with the teacher's name.  I am having so much fun with the Print and Cut feature with the optical eye that makes for precision cuts.

Learning is so sweet

Gosh, using my Inspiration Vue with the InVue software is soooooo easy to Print and Cut svg files!  I basically imported the LD Nerdy Nummies cutting files onto my visual mat, created the Registration Mark and printed out my files using my printer.

I placed my printout onto my Pazzles Print and Cut mat, then created a contour line for the white border.  I created an outline to cut the extra layer out of pink cardstock........and that was it!

I also followed the same technique for the little sentiment tag (whoops sorry for the blurry photo).

If you grab the FREEBIES here, and then at check out you are able to purchase your LD Sneak Peek (Nummies) files at a saving of 50% for a limited time.

Now, I am off to treat myself to those extra doughnuts!!!!

3D Pencil Gift Boxes and FREEBIE paper pack

Not long to go now and the kids will be back at school!  I thought I would make them some little gifts on their return, and found these adorable  3D Pencil Boxes.  If you have a cutting machine you can resize them for a larger project but I thought they were cute as treat boxes.  When I imported the cutting file onto my visual mat in my software I kept the size so that I could make 2 boxes using one sheet of my gingham paper.

The 3D Pencil Boxes from the Teacher's Pet - Cut It Bundle come with 

PDF instructions which is helpful. 

 I added the lettering myself using fonts included in my software and cut them out using black vinyl.
