Valentine Heart Topped Boxes

 

I love pink and couldn't resist making up some Valentine Heart Topped Boxes using my Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine. 

I have a passion for these pink and white coordinating patterned papers in my paper stash.  For a girl who loves pink, I must admit I have quite a few sheets to hand!

I cut out the cutting box which measure 1.5" x 2.5", but of course you could 

resize on your cutting mat to make them larger.

I adore the heart shaped top which forms the closing mechanism.

I added some transparency film behind the cut out heart and filled it up with white chocolate drops.

Using a simple tag punch, I added a stamped sentiment and embellished it with a paper flower.

*There are full assembly instructions to make this box in the project section of the Pazzles Craft Room, HERE.  

This would be a perfect project to cut out in large quantities as they are quick and easy to make.

Cutting Supplies:-

Heart Topped Box (wpc, svg & ai) - Pazzles Craft Room (projects)

Stay tuned for some more Valentine projects.

I have entered this project into the following challenge:-

Love is in the Air - Valentine Card

Here is my latest Hot Air Balloon Shaped Card, Design Team project.  I would love you to hop over to my full blog post which can be viewed in the Pazzles Craft Room.  I love making shaped cards and when I saw this delightful Hot Air Balloon from the "On The Move Collection"  I couldn't stop myself rooting for some pretty papers to cut!

Hot Air Balloon - On the Move Collection.

I altered the banner design for the Valentine themed card, by using some punched out hearts with coloured card stock and Trendy Twine.

I used my Pen Tool to create my own sentiment "Love is in the AIR". I just love the flexibility of doing this with my cutting machine without having to buy a ton of sentiment stamps!

Shaped cards are so much fun to make and there is a brilliant video tutorial in the Pazzles Craft Room called "Making Shaped Cards" which will guide you through the steps.

Just for You - using banners and a sketch

At the moment I am recovering from Pleurisy and my energy levels for crafting are minimal. I recently saw a sketch that I thought I would try it, with my new papers and Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine.

Try Stampin Tuesday -  Challenge #151 - Love Plaid

I chose a simple banner cutting file available in the Pazzles Craft Room Library and then multiplied it x4 downwards.  I then cut out my 5 banners using my Pazzles cutting machine and my recent purchase of  pretty papers from the Docraft Papermania Capsule collection.

I created my cardbase with my Pazzles software  using Kraft card.  If you are new to the Pazzles software you may wish to take a look in the Pazzles Craft Room for on-line video tutorials which show you how to make shaped cards and rounding corners (link below in supplies).

I then inked the edges using brown distressed ink and adhered my banners following the sketch.

I stamped my sentiment on one of the banners using a stamp from my craft stash.  Then, I couldn't resit using a die cut flower from the Capsule collection.  I know, I could have cut one of the flowers myself but, you do get 32 Big Bloomers in a pack that coordinate beautifully.

Wow, what a quick and simple card.  I really should try sketches more often!

Games Controller

Here, is my latest project for Pazzles ....... a Games Controller shaped card for the BOYS!  It's so hard to make a fun card for the 3 boys in my family, but as soon as I saw this cutting file in the Pazzles Craft Room I thought it would be perfect.

It was easy to turn this Games Controller cutting file into a shaped card using my Pazzles software and Pazzles Cutting machine.

I love the vibrant colours of the Core'dinations cardstock.

I was particularly pleased with this DT project for Pazzles as my 9 year old son said "COOL Mum" when I showed it to him!

Snow Hats

Brrr, baby it's cold!  

I am all prepared.......washed my snow hats and now they are ready on the line!  These  snow hats are from the LD Winter Wear (GS).

I Print & Cut these Snow Hats using my Pazzles Inspiration but, they are simple shapes that you could cut out with scissors if you don't have a cutting machine.

I added a button and peal heart to this hat.

For this hat, I just printed out another copy and cut out the pom pom, which I layered using craft foam pads.

Aren't they adorable?
