Vinyl Snowman Gift Jar

I had such fun filling up this glass jar with Toffee Snowball sweets for my Snowman Gift Jar. 

 I decorated it using the LD Melting For You (CS) with vinyl and my Pazzles Inspiration Vue  - electronic cutter ($99 special price).  Super easy to create and the kiddos love it.

I Print and Cut my topper for the top of my jar using the sentiment included in the same set.

Chevron Monogram Tumbler

Just as soon as I saw the Chevron Monogram Cutting Collection, available in the Pazzles Craft Room, I couldn't wait to have a go at cutting something straight away.  There are so many possibilities with this NEW cutting collection, that my head is spinning with ideas!

I imported the initial 'J', Chevron Monogram into my software and watched one of the past videos from Klo's previously recorded classroom sessions on Split Monograms ,which helped me achieve the result I wanted.

Click here for some more information on the Chevron Monogram Cutting Collection which was released on Friday over on the Pazzles Blog.

Halloween themed candles using vinyl

Today, I decided to do a quick post using vinyl with my Pazzles Inspiration Vue ($99.00 Special Price).  I have used 2 files from the LD Superstition - Cut It Set which lends itself to vinyl projects, don't you think?

I didn't have any orange vinyl in my craft stash so.......DING!  I reached for my orange candle, I bought several weeks ago and thought it would be perfect, as I would only need to use black vinyl and the orange wax shining through would work for the eyes!

This house was much more intricate, and is only about 3" tall.  I wasn't sure if my cutting machine would be able to cut the fine lines of the veranda and window.  I was so pleased at how well my Pazzles Inspiration Vue cut out the small detail using vinyl.

Please note that these candles are for decorative purposes only and should not be lit.  BUT, I think they will look so good on my mantelpiece amongst a display of pumpkins.

Halloween Gift Jar

I love all the little gifts you can make for Halloween and they don't need to be expensive BUT they do need to have the colour orange in them!!!  For my Halloween gift  I have filled a glass jar with little sweet pumpkins.  

I have added a Happy Halloween sticker from SRM stickers which I layered onto orange and black cardstock, then inserted it into the top of my jar.

I have also used the Happy Halloween border from the same sticker sheet which I have wrapped around the rim of the jar.

I found this strange little pumpkin that I was sort of taken to.  It is included in the LD Superstition - Cut It set for your cutting machines.

  I cut some orange and white cardstock and used vinyl to add the black layer.  

I was super excited to see how well my Inspiration Vue cutting machine cut out the fine detail using black vinyl.

Festive Soap Container

I thought I would show you a super quick, fun post using my Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine with vinyl.  I saw this hand soap container at my local supermarket and loved the colour of the soap.  I thought I would use a cutting file from the Pazzles Craft Room to give it a festive look.

I don't know about you, but having 3 kids we get through bottles of this stuff.....at least I know they have relatively clean hands!

I began to peel the sticky label off by hand....quite easy to do.

I then dabbed some Sticky Stuff remover onto a kitchen paper towel.

After a bit of rubbing the sticky residue comes off.  

I then took a baby wipe and cleaned around the whole soap container.

 I imported the Deer into my software and resized the image.  In the cut menu I selected the weed option, placed some gorgeous glitter effect vinyl onto my mat and cut out the deer.  I weeded the vinyl really easily and on this occasion didn't even need to use transfer tape as it was easy to lift off the mat and place onto the front of my soap dispenser. 

I have been wanting to use this Deer cutting file for a while and the kids love the festive soap dispenser, even more reason to wash their hands!

Give Thanks - Wall Hanging

Today I thought I would try to make a cheat's wooden wall hanging!  

I didn't have the correct wood to make the frame, but recently I had purchased some wood effect  paper......just perfect for my little project.

I found some wooden slats in the corner of the garage and glued them together.  I then used my Dulux tester pot of paint and painted the edges including the back of the wooden slats.  I trimmed a piece of paper from the Kaisercraft - Garage Days Collection using my cutting machine and adhered it to my painted board. I sanded some of the edges of the paper and inked around the frame using some brown Tim Holtz Distress ink.

I had just the right amount of brown vinyl to cut out my sentiment and leaf using my Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine.  I then got my husband to drill 2 holes in the top of the frame and threaded some garden twine.

I hope you like my cheat's version of a wooden wall hanging!

Supplies for this project:-

Wooden slats or any piece of wood

Dulux Tester Pot of paint - Perfectly Taupe

KaiserCraft - Garage Days Collection paper - The Mulberry Bush

LD Give Thanks Flourish - Cutting file.
