Tree in Bloom using Peacock and Pinwheels at LD

When I saw the this months sneak peek Peacock and Pinwheels at LD, I thought I would have to make a Print & Cut card with my Pazzles Inspiration.

Using my Pazzles software I made my base card by drawing a rectangle Condense 4.25" X 5.5".   I then went to my Move Point Tool and selected Rounded Corners, then put a Value of -0.5 for the radius.  I selected each of the 4 corners to give this simple effect.

In the Transformation Menu I selected Mirror - Duplicate - According to (top middle circle) - Apply.  I moved the top shape downwards slightly so there was an overlap and welded the x2 shapes to make my base card.  I also made an inline for the white printed paper.

You will notice in the above image that I have taken some of the flowers and made a black outline.  

I then made an outline/shadow of each of the flowers and used the colour menu to select the exact match.  

When you are using svg's for Print & Cut the exact colours show up in your Color Menu as you scroll down.

So, this is what my page looked like ready for Print & Cut.  Select the whole area, except the Registration Boxes along the top of the page and choose Null Pen in the Colour Menu - PRINT.

Then lay your printed page onto your cutting mat exactly. Print & Cut your elements.

Once, I cut out the flowers I adhered them to my printed card using Stix2 craft foam pads. 

I love the dimension to the card with just a selection of the flowers raised.

I printed the sentiment from the same svg set and used my punches to layer it onto the card.

I love the vibrant colours of the card.  

Wishing for more days of sunshine here in the UK, so I can see pretty blooms in my garden!

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".

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.
