Are you excited!!! Today CHA is in full swing in Anaheim, CA and with that being said it is also time to reveal Eileen Hull Vintage Travel Dies and Embossing Folders that will released in April with Sizzix.
 Here are just a few of the projects that will make their debut at CHA that I created. 
In case you missed it Eileen travel across the United States on her Paper Trail, teaching and sharing at stores as she traveled in her vintage trailer that she named "Scotty".....so make sure check out Eileen Blog to get caught up on her adventures this year. I am sure her Vintage Travel Collection was inspired by her travels, as you can see by the Vintage Trailer Die...don't you just love the dimension of this die...I know I do.
Of course when you travel you need to have a journal to keep your notes and photos in.  This new book die will be a hit for sure. I know it is on my must have list.
I so adore the Vintage Tool Box...love how it is hinged together to store all kinds of fun things in.
This fabulous Passport Tag Die will be a hit I am sure...I can see so many possibilities with this die. 
The Chair Die is so cute, don't you think?
And I just love the Travel Embossing Folder along with the Travel Sign Die
s that will be available. 
I hope you enjoyed seeing my projects that are being seen in Anaheim and please check out the rest of the Inspiration Team to see their inspiration and of course you will be surprised by all the dies that will be shared.
I am so honor to be apart of Eileen's Inspiration and Artist on the Block Design Team. I just love working with the dies she creates for Sizzix.

Flower Cookie Box with Craftwell

Hi it is Pam today sharing with you how to make some amazing flowers using Teresa Collins new Memory Collection Pocket Dies. 
To begin with you we are going to make this pretty rose...
So get your Craftwell Cut N Boss ready along with the dies and platforms...
Cut out 3 of the smaller flowers to form each rose. 
Snip out one petal from one of the flower, two petals from the second and just cut to the center of the third flower. 
Using your tweezers and roll each petal and glue at edge, once all petals are rolled glue layering each into the large flower that is also rolled. 
Add the single petal last to the flower, tip the petals backwards using your tweezers to shape the rose. 
Cut a circle doily die using your Cut N' Boss out and run back through using Teresa Collins Love Triangle Embossing Folder. (You can see the embossed doily in the previous photo)
 Once all three flowers are made place doily to top of box you made, add place flowers to top along with leaves from the Memory Collection. Add a bit of bling, twine and wood chippie bird to finish the top. 
For the second flower I made a pin using the large flower die from the Memory Die Collection. (Both of dies have the same shape, so you can also make smaller flowers like the large flower or a larger rose like the smaller ones.)
I cut all of my flowers out at once using my Cut N' Boss, that is what I love about this machine...you can use if for multiple dies at one time. So for the large flower, you will also need three die cuts, roll them with a stylus and mat. 
Mold the petals using your tweezers.
Layer the three flowers together to form your flower. 
Add a pin or clip to the back and place a pretty center in the middle of your flower. 
Place your flower pin into your gift box and you are ready to give some a very special gift. I hope you loved my flower tutorial today and try making a few for yourself. Hugs Pammejo

Merry Christmas Card with Couture Creations - Out of the Archives

When all else fails when you are sick and need to have something on your blog, go back into the archives and pick out a few of your favorite projects. Today I am sharing with you my Merry Christmas Card I made when I was on the Couture Creations Design Team. I hope you enjoy the tutorial using Couture Creations Nesting Dies along with the Wrapped in Joy Collection.
I started by taking a rectangle piece of paper and using the smallest of the Nesting Circles I placed it on my cutting mat to make my first circle....
 I proceed til I had three circles cut...to help them stay in line I used a bit of washi tape just to hold it into place.
 I cut two scallop borders using my Nesting Scallop Retangles...
Placed them in my Moonlit Berries Embossing Folder and embossed....
 and sanded them with my Sanding Block to help expose the core center....
 After I had placed my papaer pieces on my cream card base using Couture Creations two sided tape I placed the circles that I had previous cut back on to the card front with Mounting Foam Tape...I love using double sided paper...this makes this technique so easy to do.
 Here is a closer look the the circles on poop dots....
Love how the scallop border that has been embossed gives a bit more dimension to my card front. 
I want the inside of my card to be as special as the front, so here is a peek at the inside, I placed the angel sicker to the bottom using Mounting Foam Tape from Couture Creations...I hope you try making a special inside of your cards.
I hope you enjoyed my first Merry Christmas card of the season and am looking forward to making my other holiday decorations this year. Hugs Pammejo

Noel Christmas Banner with Xyron

 
Xyron 30 Days of Christmas
Christmas is just a few days away and I just have to share with you my Noel Banner I made using Xyron and Echo Parks Christmas Papers. 
I began by covering my banner pieces using a Glue Stick from Xyron.
Once all the banners were covered...I used an Xacto Knife to cut the excess paper off.
 Make sure to punch my holes through once the glue has set.
Add a couple of border strips to two of the banners using your Xyron Mega Runner from Teresa Collins. 
 For the letter "N" Banner I began by adding a semi circle to the top of my banner....
Add the letters to the banners once you have them covered using your Xyron Glue Stick...make sure to have a sharp blade on your Xacto knife and a small sanding block to give the edges a finished look. 
For my letter "O" Banner I added more of the semi-circle pieces that I ran through the Create a Sticker Maker and added the "O" that was cover to the banner. I placed a small twine bow on each piece using Xyron Adhesive Dots. 
On my letter "E" Banner I added fussy cut holly leaves to the top of my banner once I had placed my doilies and circle on the top of the banner. 
The letter "L" Banner is finished with a few small flags that I added to the top of my letter using Xyron Adhesive Dots.
I hope you have enjoyed my Noel Christmas Banner and try your hand at making one. Make sure to check out all of Xyron fun products in the store and definitely look at all of Xyron Sticker Makers, they sure make a project come together super easy. Merry Christmas Pammejo

Merry Christmas Painters Tray with Craftwell

Pretty Christmas packages and of course Christmas decorations to be made. 
Today I am sharing with you how to make a Painters Tray using Teresa Collins new Thankful Holiday Pocket Dies and Perky Peacock Embossing Folder.
I began by running a piece of Red Core'dinations paper through my Cut N'Boss using the Perky Peacock Embossing folder and cutting it to fit each of the rectangles.
Once the embossing paper is in each section, it is time to decorate. I began by taking a Santa Claus Die cut from the Candy Cane Collection and cut about 20 or so holy leaves from the the Thankful Holiday Die Set and place them around the Santa image to form a wreath. 
 Cut out two of the Christmas Trees from the Thankful Holiday Collection, one will be the base and the other you will cut into pieces to form a folk art tree.
Once cut and layered add borders you have cut using your Cut N Boss and border die, adhere to the front of the tree. Punch 3 small Santa heads, add to the tree using pop dots. Cut a star using the Tree Die and add to the top of the tree. I love the Folkart look of the Christmas Tree, don't you?
Cut a Snowflake Die using your Cut n Boss and place on the edge of your Painters Tray.
Place other fun embellishments from the collections...   
along with a pretty stamped image to the tray, adding some bling, ribbon and berries here and there.
 I hope you have enjoyed my Merry Christmas Painters Tray and try making yourself one. Hugs Pammejo
