Cute Thanksgiving Wreath

I made this wreath using leaves from the Pazzles Craft Room and a few files from the  Thanksgiving Cornucopia Centerpiece in the projects section in the Pazzles Craft Room. I love the corn and for the wheat I bent the "leaves" and glued two of them together back to back to give them a little more dimension.  I am going to give it to my ds's teacher for her classroom door.

Another Purse...yup another one...tee hee.

This is a purse I created using my Pazzles Creative Cutter.  I hope you like it.  If you would like the file It will be posted in the Pazzles Craft Room in the Pazzles Albums. 

Its Back To School Time!!!

Here are a couple of bulletin boards I made using my Pazzles. I have become a very popular girl once the teachers found out what this machine can do! How cool is it that I can pick a theme and make it happen? As soon as one of the teachers said she was doing a sock monkey theme this year I went straight to my Pazzles and created the file. She loved it. The principle told me he loved when I did the boards because they were custom and not boring. The teachers really love the custom boarders too!  I love doing the bulletin boards! To me its like doing an over sized scrapbooking page!  What ever the theme is, I always make one to represent each student in that particular class. So there are 17 fourth graders so 17 airplanes. The same for the monkeys. 16 students = 16 monkeys.  That way they can take them home or glue them on a notebook...etc. when the board gets changed.  I glued the paper airplanes onto clothes pins before pinning them to the board.  This make them pop off the board and when the students take them home they can clip them onto something.

 

 

I purchased all the files on this paper airplane board and a few for the monkey board from Miss Kate Cuttables.  If you haven't discovered her site yet now is the time to visit. She has tons of fabulous files and a freebie every day!

 

Purse Box

Ok by now you can see by my recent post history that I am on a box trend. I love creating "something out of nothing". I start off with just a few sheets of paper and with a little magic and my Pazzles I end up with this totally giftable gift. I love it!

This is a purse I designed using my Pazzles Creative Cutter.  I just love that machine...have I said that before...tee hee.  I will use this box to put small gifts in to give to the kiddo's teachers or friends, co-workers...etc.  I've posted a few purses on my blog that I've done in the past but this one I designed myself from scratch. "Look mom no hands"...lol  I hope you like it.  

Lego Box

This Lego box is the latest file I designed using my Pazzles Creative Cutter.  I plan on making square one with four nubs on it too.  My son loves it!  I am seeing Lego party favors in his future...tee hee.

Etched Glass

I love how this glass turned out. I made four of them with our initials on them.  I used my Pazzles and contact paper to cut the E out, then adhered the sticky side of the vinyl to the glass, brushed on the etching cream and waited for about 20 mins.  Washed it off and viola, etched glasses! They are fast becoming our favorite glasses.  I bought them at the Dollar Tree!  I plan on making a set for all my sisters and brothers. What a cool cheap gift!  I think they would make a great wedding gift too!
I also did some small mirrors to use as coasters. With my Pazzles I can do any design I want.  It would be cool to do votives with the brides monogram for her reception tables. I also did a monogrammed glass serving platter for a wedding gift. I plan on doing glasses with our school mascot on them for Prom too. What fun this machine is!

I created this pogo stick file from a picture.  I think its kinda fun. My son got a pogo stick for his birthday so I needed a neat cutting file.

Monogramed Mug

 

I made this coffee mug using vinyl and my Pazzles Creative Cutter.  The vinyl is permanent and should last 3-5 years.  I don't plan on washing it in the dishwasher so it might even last longer.  I love the way it turned out. I put my monogram on both sides.  I got the cup at Joanns using my 40% off coupon of course!..lol

Fun Guitar Box

Here is a guitar box I created on my Pazzles.  I took a straight on picture of my hubby's guitar and tried to duplicate it the best I could using paper.  I am very happy with how it turned out. I made a card to match it too. I plan on giving them to him on Father's Day.

Sock Monkey Cutting files

 

I created these little guys and gals using my Pazzles and a straight on picture of my son's sock monkey. I created the poses by cutting the legs and arms off and then welding them back on.  One of the teachers at our school is doing a sock monkey theme in her classroom so I really designed them for her bulletin board.  But I like them and since my son is monkey crazy, I will probably use them for myself too.  If you want the cutting file they are posted on the Pazzles Craft Room site in the Pazzles Albums and on the Pazzles Yahoo Group.

Mama needs a new pair of shoes!

I made this tonight to show my niece an example of the party favors I am making for her sweet 16 party.  I will probably fill celo bags with candy and stuff them with some lame saying like, "Thank shoe for coming...get it Thank SHOE...I know, I said it was lame...lol.  I am making multi-colored ones for her, but of course I had to make a pink one first!

When Pigs Fly Picture

I was waiting to upload this becasue it was enroute to a friend of mine and I didn't want her to see it before she got it.  I am really getting into these 3D pics.  And once again I designed the pig and wings on my Pazzles cut it out and glued it with 3D dots onto cloud paper.  I got the frames at Khole's 5 for $20.00 not bad.

Another Purse..Yup, another one...tee hee

Another renidition of the previouse purse I made.  This one was for one of my DD's friends who was having a birthday party.  I also made a matching wallet to go with it.  We loaded it up with candy, lip balms, nail polish and silly bands..lol  Oh and of course we put $$ in the wallet!

He Loves Me Picture

I made this pic for a friend of mine.  It was her Christmas present.  I used a shadow box type of frame so I could make the flower 3D.  And of course I designed and cut the flower on my Pazzles!  Gotta love that machine!  I didn't get very good pics becasue I finished it right before I was headed over to her house to give it to her.  So, I kinda took them on the fly...tee hee.





I sprayed the center of the flower with homemade "glimmer" mists.  I used copper, black and white.   I also chalked the edges of the flower petals and leaves to give them a little more dimention.

Candy Container

I made this candy container for my son's teacher. She carries a plastic baggy of skittles around with her and gives the kiddos a skittle when they behave in line and in the bathroom. The container is just a recycled creamer bottle...see I really am trying to be "green"..lol

4th of July Cupcakes

As promised, we broke into the 4th of July cupcakes and I wanted to show you the insides. Of course I cut the pinwheels using my Pazzles.

This is what it looks like without the foil liner on it.

This is what the insides look like....fun fun fun!

Rainbow Cupcakes...They taste as good as they look!

My kiddos just loved these!  They are a little work to make but with very fun results! I got the recipe from one of my favorite cooking sites...Our Best Bites.  Lots of yummy recipes can be found there!

4th of July Red, White and Blue Cupcakes

These are the cupcakes I made for 4th of july.  When we eat them I will post a pic of the insides...I colored the batter so the inside of the cupcake is Red, White and Blue too!.  Kinda like the rainbow cupcakes. I made the pinwheel toppers using two-sided scrapbooking paper, my Pazzles, glue and some flat toothpicks. 

Paper Purse

I purchaced the instructions for this purse, tweeked it a little and created a Pazzles file for it.  I made it for my Secret Sister on Scrapfreak.  I put microwave popcorn in it because it was one of her favorite snacks.  Since I made it Pazzles file I can make it basically any size I want it so I have one in the making right now that will fit two Girradelli squares in it.  Very cute.  

4th of July Altered Jiffy Pop.

 

This is a party favor I made for our 4th of July party guests.  I created the fire crackers and letters on my Pazzles Creative Cutter...and alas I waited the the very last minute to get these done again...hmmm  I see a pattern forming here...lol

Sketch Challenge

May's Sketch

This is a layout I did using May's sketch challenge on Scrap Freak.  If you haven't visited yet you need to. Very cool site!

Small Watering Can

This is a smaller version of the watering can I made previously.  I filled this one with candy in a celo bag tied it off with ribbon and glued little flowers to the top so it looks like a bouquet in the watering can.  I made these for the office staff and lunch ladies for a Easter treat.

Valentines Bird House Treat Box

I made these little birdhouses from a milk carton file I have on my Pazzles Creative Cutter.  I designed the roof file and added a heart cut out to the side of the milk container.  I filled it with Hershey's Nuggets covered in Valentines scrapbooking paper. I covered the heart shaped hole with clear cellophane so the nuggest wouldn't fall out.  I made them for the office staff and lunch ladies at my kiddles school.

Easter Treats!

I made these little Easter treats bags for my kiddo's classmates.  I designed the file and cut everything using my Pazzles Creative Cutter. The "body" is just a clear celo bag and I just used glue dots to add the feet, hands, head and tail.

French Fry Gifty

I just love "gifties" I dare say I like making them more then scrapbooking...yes, I said that out loud!...LOL I made the Fry box and fries on my Pazzles. Each fry holds a package of smarties. You can also put the longer tootie rolls in them too.

I plan on making some for my friends and adding a tag that says. Fries go to the Thighs. So I made you a treat you can actually eat! Well, something like that...UGH...LOL Yeah, it took me all day to think that one up...LOL

CLOCK FOR TEACHER

        

This is a clock I made for my DD's teacher. I sent a survey out to both my kiddle's teachers to find out what they like so I don't get them gifts they don't really want. She said her favorite colors are pink and purple and that she loved stripes and polka dots. I decided to make her a clock for her birthday. It couldn't have been a better choice because the clock in her room died the day before...the Lord works in mysterious ways! She loved it!

Holloween Pumpkin Holder

Here is another version of the Easter Egg Holder I made earlier in the year. If your not into black cats or Halloween kinda stuff you can add a little Pumpkin Patch sign instead. I plan on filling the pumpkin with candy and making one for each of my kiddos class mates. I made it using my Pazzles Inspiration.
