I have been having so much fun learning to create boxes. As I was creating a box a few weeks ago, I 'saw' it as a Gingerbread House. And to make it more fun, Chris from Pazzles just shared an adorable Gingerbread House Box over at the Pazzles Craft Room, so be sure and check it out as well.
Here is the one I did
What do you have on your gift list? I started thinking about what I would like this year and realized, I have it. As many of you know, I have had a Pazzles machine since they first came out. I started out with the Pro machine and had a Mini as well. I also had a Mighty (Pazzles sent me to learn, since I was traveling for them at the time and needed to be able to answer questions). Now I have an Inspiration. It is my favorite. Yes, I still have the other ones, but they are in boxes and sitting in storage, because my Inspiration does EVERYTHING all of those did and more.
I bring this up, because of the wonderful Promotion that Pazzles is running. If you have been wanting a Pazzles Inspiration, but have been unable to get it, now is the time. If you click here, you can see how to get your own Inspiration for $99* or $199*.
Here is an idea for those of you that have the Inspiration, but would like to have the Pazzles Craft Room. Why not sign up for the Craft Room for yourself and give the Inspiration to a friend, sister, daughter, mother, daughter in law, etc for the $99* or $199. Click here and make everyone have a Happy Holiday.

POST IT NOTE HOLDER
Cutting an Item Larger than your Mat & Card with Title on Side
Checking out the New Software-Inspiration Pro 2010
Today's class was how to create an envelope to fit YOUR CARD, no matter the size...
I'm way behind on posting these, I apologize, it has been a CRAZY, BUSY month.
Okay, I've been busy this week, redesigning my Studio, so I can work better in it. I know I've been supposed to be working on other things, but I decided to do something for me.
Here are pictures of my past two rooms. This one HERE is from my old house and this one HERE is what my new room looked like when I moved in, this one HERE was working on and creating it and this is what it looked like HERE when I finished it. Now below is what it looks like now....I see a trend with red walls...LOL
Here is the class we did tonight, I will complete the card in the Tuesday Class 7-20-2010 at 1pm USA-Central Time
In class, I challenged everyone to create a card using a dingbat font...here are some of the wonderful cards. Some of the people shared the cutting file in the wpc format. Thanks so much for participating, I really enjoyed these.
Here is a partial peek at what this weeks classes will be. I will be teaching this technique 2 times, once on Sunday at 8pm USA-Central and once on Tuesday at 1pm USA-Central.
I'm not showing the complete picture or even the finished project, but it should be lots of fun and I hope you JOIN US FOR CLASS
Here are the classes that have been recovered, PLUS the last 4 classes, including last nights. I am just listing them, to watch them, just click on the title and it will take you to the class. Thank you so much for your patience AND help as I got these fixed and up again. Be sure and read the entire list to get the ones you want. If you find a link that doesn't work right or that is the wrong title, please email me at klo@scrappingusa.com and let me know. I have tried very hard to get them correct.
Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me out here. For those of you that get emails of my blog, do any of you have the ones from a few weeks ago when I did all the classes? If you do, can you forward them to me at klo@scrappingusa.com
We have recovered the classes, but I'm working on getting them all titled, etc again and hoping that having that will make it a bit easier.
Thanks so much, Klo
I accidentally deleted all of the Classes that I did in the last week, They are not recoverable so I'm going to be doing tutorials on the things we covered and also classes off and on this week while I'm home. I will post a schedule of what classes I will have throughout the week.
Here is a picture of the Layered Paper Piecing that we did
Okay, so I got to fly a plane on Thursday....not just fly IN IT, I FLEW IT.
It was a Cessna 4 seater and OMG, it was so FREAKING AWESOME....
This is one of my Bucket List Items to do before I was 50 (will be 47 this year). Now I really want to get my actual pilots license.
I was in Mesa and flew through the Superstition Mountains and around Weavers Needle. I got to fly right around it. My sisters friend that took us did the take off (I got to do all the checks with him and 'drive' the plane down the air strip. He was going to let me take off, but i didn't feel quite confident enough with my steering yet. As soon as we were off the ground, I took control...OMG..IT WAS AWESOME (have I mentioned that yet?) We flew up the river and over Roosevelt Dam, then turned towards Weavers Needle and flew around that, and out to the front side of the mountains. We were in the air for about 1 hour. Then we got to do the approach to Falcon Field and I did the entire approach, calling into the tower, etc up until just 20 feet off the ground. Next time, I'm going to do the take off AND the landing. OMG, IT WAS FREAKING AWESOME....did I tell you that?????
I had the great opportunity to teach a one on one class to a very sweet lady from Kansas named Jackie. She came up on Thursday and we worked on Thursday evening, Friday day and Saturday morning. She was awesome and learned so much. One of the things I taught her was to create a paper piecing. She created on her computer as I created on mine and we worked through each step, anyway, here is my finished project and the files I created. I hope you enjoy them.
Thanks for asking about this Shash....
Here is a video on how I chalk and add details to give a dimensional look to my paper piecing. I did Cinderella from a color book I downloaded off of the Internet. I am not actually showing you how create the cutting file, but I am sharing the finished file with you. Just follow the link after watching the videos. Sorry for having a Part #1 and Part #2, unfortunately I can only upload 10 minutes or less, and this was 14 minutes. Thanks!
On the boards lately, there has been talk of how to create your own Fringe Quilled Flower (not sure if that is put in the proper order, but I hope you understand it...*grin) Anyway, I did a tutorial to show you how I do it. Hope this inspires or helps someone to create something fun and exciting.
Many of you have met my sister, Diane at the shows I have been do. She is an artist and has taught Adobe Illustrator at FIDM aka Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (downtown LA) for 10 or 12 years...can't remember which, but it has been awhile.
Of course, I cut him out on my Pazzles Inspiration. Doesn't he look so cute next to my drums that I got in Africa last fall? Of course, the metal carrots are there for spring....or WAIT, maybe I will say that is what he eats...YES, that is the answer, that is why they are there...LOL
Now, I have added a few things to my living room that I got from Africa and I want you to be sure and NOTICE the lion and giraffe that is on top of the cabinet. Don't they look authentic?
This makes me happy, and I think I'm going to keep adding to my wall as I GROVEL and BEG for more characters from Diane, check out her art at www.dianepacker.com
I picked up and bought a few old windows last fall and have been wanting to do something fun with them. Well, I created a magnet board and here it is. I still plan on making some fun magnets for it and maybe adding some creative touches, but here is the start.
Hi everyone,
at the class on Sunday night, we were talking about using fonts without having to install them. Well, I was talking to Chris at Pazzles and she was actually in the process of putting one together and she just added it today to the Pazzles Craft Room. It is a FREE video and very well done. Because it is so well done, I won't be doing one on my blog, but will send you there.
It is under the Ka-Ching heading for todays blog update...or you can just go to Videos and The Fundamentals and it is there... it is at Pazzles Craft Room
I have had many people ask about the Pazzles Craft Room, so I decided to do a video and give you an inside look at what the benefits are. At the end, there is a 50% off discount for your first month if you want to check it out.
Go Visit the Pazzles Craft Room Today
This is an awesome book that my dear friend made me...just CLICK HERE to check it out.
We are having technical difficulties with the tutorials. In the meantime, you can see some of them at http://www.livestream.com/scrappingklo
They are not all there, but there are a few. I will try to get this taken care of as soon as I get back from California.
