Tic Tac Toe card and gift set

Here is a super quick Valentine card and gift for your loved ones using LD files with my Pazzles.  It took me no time at all to make using the LD Love Happy Tic Tac Toe - CS.  I imported the image into my software and created a quick valentine card which I Print and Cut with my Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine.

I then took the X's and O's and created some Hershey Kiss toppers which I also Print and Cut.

I thought it would be cute to make a little banner tag for my gift bag.  So, I duplicated the image and shrunk it down to fit in my banner tag.

Then I wanted a fun little gift to go with my Hershey Kisses and printed out the LD Love Happy - Tic Tac Toe - PR.  I used my guillotine to trim around the printables which was easy to do.

If you haven't done so already, you should hop over to the LD site as there are amazing images, fonts, cutting files, papers etc, in fact everything you need to keep you busy in your craft room for hours of happy crafting.

I always enjoy reading your comments.

You're the balm - Valentine Gift

Here, is another cute project using an SVG file which will import into many digital cutting machines..  This file LD Build a Hero - Love Balm CP (cut project) is FREE till tonight, midnight MST.  You will also be able to purchase it when the FREE offer ends at Lettering Delights.

It is super quick to make and makes a fun valentine gift.  I actually Print and Cut the main part of the design so that the lettering was nice and clear, as I was in a hurry to finish the project before heading out to watch my daughter play in a tennis tournament all day!

I cut out the star and base part of the bomb in coloured cardstock.  I matched the heart with the same colour as the bomb and placed it in the aperture as this was surplus cardstock.

So, if you are looking for a fun, quick valentine gift, you may wish to grab this FREE file and also check out the LD Build a Hero collection.

Valentine - Love Balm printables

Just bringing you today a FREE printable by LD called Build a Hero - Love Balm which is available this weekend till Sunday, 29th midnight MST.  It is the exact size when printed out on a home printer for you to place an EOS lip balm in the centre.

I downloaded the printable into my Pazzles InVue software. This is printable file (i.e. an image) which does not have cutting lines so you will need to create one in the centre to enable you to place the lip balm.The yellow circle is my cut line which I have created, but make sure you uncheck printable in the Cut Menu of your Pazzles software so that it does not print out with the rest of the design!  If you do not have a cutting machine you could easily use a circle punch or a circle metal die.  I rotated the design so that I could get 2 of the designs on my cutting mat.

Having printed the design using my printer, I then laid it onto my Print & Cut mat to cut out the aperture only, with my Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine.  

I used my guillotine/paper trimmer to cut around the black border.

Then place your lip balm in the centre and you have a cute valentine gift which can be
created ever so quickly in multiples if you like.

KISS me quick!

Just sharing my Valentine Gift to my hubby today!

I was inspired by a project designed by Pazzles Design Team member Heidi Edwards.  I have used the base of the nugget box from her project which can be download in the Pazzles Craft Room - Nugget Slider Box Valentine.  The file is available in wpc, svg and ai file formats.

I typed my KISS sentiment using the LD SNF Sketchy font, then Print and Cut my Hershey Nugget wrappers using my Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine.  It makes it so easy using the registration marks with the Print and Cut mat.

I also printed out my bubble tag with lips using cutting files also
available in the Pazzles Craft Room.

I hope he likes this years Valentine gift!

Fruity decorated gift bags

For those of you who are regular follows of my blog, know how much I love to decorate paper bags.  They make inexpensive gifts for my family and friends and they are super quick to create.  I am sharing with you the latest release of LD - I Pine For You product which is super cute.

LD - I Pine For You product - click above image
then select each image on LD website to view the product in each set.

I stamped my paper bag with a random splatter stamp matching the ink with my images.  I adhered a strip of washi tape to the bottom of my bags.....told you this was a quick project.

I then printed my sheet of LD I Pine For You (PR) printables using my printer settings so that I could get 9 images onto one sheet of printer paper.  

I then trimmed the printable images using my paper trimmer and attached them to my kraft banner tags which I cut using my Pazzles Inspiration Vue cutting machine.

I love how they turned out, but now I have the difficult decision to choose who gets which bag!!!!

Pixelcraft Pop Up Card

I made my 1st pop up card!  I saw the latest release of the NEW LD Pixelcraft product  and thought they were such fun!  The base of my pop up card was from the Pazzles Craft Room Library - Pop Up Card Collection (membership is required)

I then used the adorable cutting file from the LD Pixelcraft - Love - CS.  Once I had layered the elements I just adhered it to the front of my Pop Up Card.  Eeeek it's so adorable.....

The set is just perfect for male themed valentine cards.......don't you think?

I then made myself a simple sentiment and used the LDJ Jillustration - Font 
on my speech bubble.

Here is the whole LD Pixelcraft product collection.  Click on the image above to take a closer look at the product.

Hope you like my alternative valentine card.

Monster Love - Kids Valentine Tags

I've been playing with my NEW fuse tool that Santa gave me for Christmas.  I am having great fun with it especially now I have stocked up on some pretty sequins from Clearly Besotted.

I have used the LD Monster Love - Kids Valentine Cards - PR (printables).  I imported the images into my Pazzles software, resized them to the size of ordinary tags, then printed 

them out onto card. 

I didn't feel the need to Print and Cut, as I could easily trim around the images using my paper trimmer.  I placed them in some clear plastic and sealed it together using my fuse tool around 3 edges.  I then sprinkled in my sequin mix, pink and gold........lush. 

Finally I sealed my 4th edge and used my Crop A Dial to punch a hole for my metal ring.

Of course, you could just print out the cards and write you sentiment.  Then pop into an envelope and give to your loved one!

Love Sick valentine shaker card

So, for Christmas I dropped some very heavy hints to my husband, that I would like a
We R Memory Keepers Fuse Tool for Christmas.......he doesn't do subtle hints!  I just had the urge to join the bandwagon and make some shaker cards.  So, here is my 1st attempt this year, using my Christmas present.  Gosh, they are so easy and quick to make with this crafty gadget, well worth it if you like making shaker cards.

I used various files from the LD Love Sick collection.  I Print and Cut the "Love Sick" sentiment onto some white cardstock. 

 I adhered the above panel to the back of the aperture (see above).

For the front of my card I typed my sentiment using the LD Jilly Nilly (Font) and added some hearts from one of the sets in the collection.

The image above shows my base card.

I cut out my circle aperture and used my Fuse Tool for the shaker part.  I added a few sequins between the plastic pockets, sealed it up and assembled the card.  In essence the shaker part is sandwiched between the front aperture card and the smaller panel.  I hope these instructions are clearer than mud!!!!!  Basically, I watched some YouTube video tutorials and created by card design using my cutter software which made it super easy.

I took one of the bug images from the LD Love Sick (CS), I created an outline to give me a white border, then Print and Cut the image out.  Love the bugs face, don't you?
