Festival Madness



 OK so that's a slight exaggeration - but if you have a look

then you'll see that there is still quite a bit of work to do - but after a while - all this will look like this --

 432 workshop kits - all neatly packed in individual plastic bags - ready and waiting for all of you to come and take part in the workshop!! We'll be on stand  E1 and workshops start at 10.15 each day - they're free - chance to have a try out of the Big Shot and Bigz Die. ( also a chance to take the weight off your feet!)

We will also have demonstrators with Abakhan Fabrics, Cotton Patch, Lady Sew and Sew and Popular Patchwork - it will be difficult to miss us.

Now you may be wondering how the table runners are coming on - it has taken me 2 days to cut fabric, 2 days to fuse and iron fabric - so they still all have to be finished!!! How many sleeps do I still have until the show  - 7, well only 6 really because we have to set up on Wednesday.

To find out if I manage to get everything completed in time - you'll just have to come and see me at the show!!!

Don't forget - E1

I'm off to pack some more kits - see you next week.

Hi!

Here is my new page “Enjoy” made with a picture from our holidays.

Supply list:

Kit Jenni Bowlin Mercantile

Paper: My Mind's Eye, Pebbles

Cardstock: American Crafts

Alphabets: American Crafts

Stickers: Chic Tags

Embellishments: Jenni Bowlin Studio, My Mind's Eye

Masking Tape

Spray ink : Poussière de fée Scrap Plaisir

Dies:

658300 : Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit

659436 : Sizzix Bigz Die-Garden Greens

This is a simple page built on a wood-patterned paper. All the elements are gathered around my black & white picture.

I played with paper scraps, tickets and small golden accents.

I used my Big Shot to cut a nice foliage pattern out of white cardstock. Then I sprayed my die cut with gold ink as to match my embellishments. To obtain various shades, I mixed my ink with a bit of water. While my die cut dries in the open, I splashed my page with black drops to create contrast and add extra decoration to my background.

Then I added some 3D decoration, for instance small flowers glued with 3D adhesive foam.

Have a nice day,

See you next Thursday,

Karine

Une page toute simple construite sur un imprimé à motif bois. Tous les éléments sont concentrés autour de ma photo en noir et blanc.

Je me suis amusée avec des chutes d'imprimés, des tickets et des petites décorations dorées.

J'ai utilisé ma Big Shot pour découper un joli feuillage dans du cardstock blanc. J'ai ensuite vaporisé ma découpe d'encre en spray dorée pour être en accord parfait avec mes embellissements. Pour créer des nuances, j'ai mélangé mon encre avec un peu d'eau. Pendant que ma découpe sèche à l'air libre j'ai éclaboussé ma page de quelques gouttes noires pour créer du contraste et habiller mon fond.

Complétez simplement avec quelques décorations en volume, telles des petites fleurs montées à l'aide de mousse 3D.

Très bonne journée à vous,

Dearly Beloved

Whenever I have been naughty, my wife always starts by saying "You know what you've done don't you?" to which I almost always reply " What now my beloved?" in the vain hope that one little endearment will help to calm the waters.

I'm not that naughty really, just minor day-to-day irritants like forgetting to fill the water filter jug or forgetting to pick up milk or..... it's usually forgetting something or other!..... MEN!!!

 This week I'm going to make her birthday card (21 again!) and I thought I would use some of the new dies/folders from Lori Whitlock and Prima listed below.

• Sizzix Originals Die - Flourish, Beautiful by Lori Whitlock (659714)
• Textured Impressions Embossing Folders 2PK - Sweet Dots & Florals Set by Lori Whitlock (659726)
• Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 11PK - Ornate Labels by Lori Whitlock (659711)
• Sizzix Thinlits Die Set - Couquette by Prima Marketing (659701)

I started by cutting a 10 x 12 cm rectangle of ivory card and die-cutting a flourish from the same card. I used the flourish as a template and traced around the edge on the base of the rectangle with a pencil before trimming around the pencil line and rounding off the upper corners with a suitable punch.

I embossed the floral pattern onto the card and gently inked over the embossed image using the Weathered Wood Distress Ink pad applied with a blending tool followed by the Shabby Shutters ink pad. I also applied a little Mustard Seed ink which is a very strong yellow so use with caution, it adds a little freshness where needed. I used the same colours on the flourish.

 Remember the beginning of the blog? well this is where the 'Beloved' part comes in. I measured the tab die from the Ornate Labels set and created the word 'Beloved' on my PC before printing onto ivory card. Next I cropped the word with the die and die-cut the ornate label from gold card which I then distressed with a sanding pad. I also cut the label background onto which I matted the ornate label followed by the die-cut phrase. This is a seriously useful set of dies and I urge you to check them out. 

For the finishing touch I wanted to add a pretty little flower and who better to design such a set of dies but Prima. This is one of five different flowers in the same set and they are a die-cut essential in my opinion. I inked the edges of the petals using the same inks as before and set about applying a little texture and dimension to the petals using my trusty tool kit by Susan Tierney-Cockburn. I added a Crystal to the centre as the finishing touch and......

.....Here's the finished card.

I had so much fun I decided to make another one using the same elements but changing the colours slightly. I also used a different ornate label and flower, both from the same sets though.

And here they are together, now all I've got to do is choose which one I think she will like..... and then give her the other one as I'm bound to get it wrong!!!

Hexagon greetings

 

 

 

This week I decided to break the square and make a card with six edges using a few sizes from the Framelits Die Set 10PK - Hexagons.



First step was to make my cardbase and for that I folded a white piece of cardstock and chose the largest die from Framelits Hexagons. I let one edge of the die extend out over the fold of the paper so the die wouldn't cut here. Once I had run my sandwich through the Big Shot Starter Kit (Powder Blue & Teal) I was left with a hexagon that opened on one side and could be used as my cardbase.

Next step was to make the patterned paper for my card and I chose matching papers and a single solid cardstock and die cut them using a smaller hexagon. Once I had die cut a few of each paper, I traced a hexagon on a piece of white cardstock (using one of the dies as template) and started to assemble my pattern using the traced lines as my guide. When I had filled out the entire traced area, I ran the paper and the matching die through the Big Shot and was then left with a patterned hexagon-shaped piece of paper. Now all I had to do was put my card together.

Using the labels that come with the Big Shot Starter Kit I diecut two labels and sandwiched those with a handcut banner giving my sentiment some interest. I also tied a piece of seam binding around the patterned paper prior to attaching on the cardbase.

And then I called the card done. When doing something like the patterned paper using simple shaped dies, I don't think you need much in ways of embellishments and thus I kept mine to a minimum.

Supply list:

Framelits Die Set 10PK - Hexagons
Cardstock
Patterned Paper
Seam Binding
Stamp (Papertrey Ink)
Ink (VersaFine)

---o---

I denne uge ville jeg springe boxen og lave et kort med seks kanter, og jeg tog Framelits Die Set 10PK - Hexagons til hjælp.

Første skridt var at lave min kortbase, og til det formål foldede jeg et stykke hvidt karton og placerede den største die fra Framelits - Hexagons, så den hang lidt ud over folden. På den måde bliver der ikke skåret dér, hvor dien hænger ud over kanten. Da jeg havde kørt sandwichen gennem min Big Shot, havde jeg et sekskantet kort lige klar til at dekorere.

Næste skridt var at lave mit mønstrede papir, og her valgte jeg en mindre sekskant-die, som jeg brugte til at udstanse sekskanter i forskellige mønstrede papirer og i karton. Da jeg havde skåret nogle stykker af hvert papir, brugte jeg en af diene til at tegne en sekskant på et stykke hvidt karton. Det fyldte jeg nu ud med mine små sekskanter, og da jeg havde fyldt hele sekskanten ud, kørte jeg den og dien igennem min Big Shot, hvorefter jeg havde et sekskantet stykke mønstret papir til mit kort.

Jeg brugte de labels, der følger med Big Shot Starter Kit (Powder Blue & Teal) til at udstanse to labels, som jeg lagde sammen med et håndklippet grønt banner imellem. På den måde fik kortets tekst også lidt ekstra opmærksomhed. Endelige bandt jeg et stykke seam binding omkring det mønstrede papir. Når man laver kort, som er så busy, som dette, synes jeg ikke, at man behøver alverden af dekorationer.

Ingredienser:
Big Shot Starter Kit (Powder Blue & Teal)
Framelits Die Set 10PK - Hexagons
Karton
Mønstret papir
Seam Binding
Stempel (Papertrey Ink)
Sværte (VersaFine)

¡Hola a todos!

Hoy quiero enseñaros un álbum que hice para una amiga mía.  Como podéis ver éste era un proyecto de bastante envergadura, con unas 40 fotos, así que me decidí por un estilo limpio y que resistiera el paso del tiempo. Por eso me gustan tanto los troqueles del Starter Kit y las formas básicas de Sizzix: Las puedes utilizar de un montón de maneras diferentes y nunca van a pasar de moda.

¡Feliz lunes!

Congratulations!!

Hello again Sizzix friends, it's me Bente back with a new project to share :-)

Today I did not make a page , but quite a straight forward shabby card instead. 

I have a few birthdays coming up and it's nice to have a small pile of cards stashed away.

1.I used the Framelits die Trellis and cut a piece of chipboard with it. 

2. I prepared both the die cut and the cardbase with stamps, gesso and mists and used a black pen for outlining.

3. I made and added a Tattered Floral bloom that I had misted a lovely turquoise colour.

4. I used the Susan's Garden dies to cut out a few leaves to add to my flower.

5. I stamped and aged a sentiment for my card. 

      I love that you can vary the Tattered Florals bloom so much, both in size and appearance.

     The Bigz dies are wonderful for cutting thicker materials and they cut through it like butter!!

       That was my card. I hope you like it!! :-)

Hej igen Sizzix fans! Idag har jag ingen layout att visa utan ett kort i shabby stil.

Det er snart flere som har bursdag og det er bra å ha noen kort i reserve.

1.Jag använde Frameworks Trellis diesen för att skära ut en bit i chipboard.

2. Jag förberedde underlaget på kortet och det utskurna motivet  med stempel, gesso och mist, och använde en svart penna för att markera runtom.

3. Jag tillverkade en Tattered Florals blomma som jag mistade med en herlig turkos färg

4. Jag använde Susan's Garden dies för att stansa ut några blad till min blomma.

5. Sedan stämplade jag 'Gratulerer' og distressade det lite innan jag limmade det på kortet. 

Jag gillar skarpt hur Tattered florals blomman kan varieras i det oändliga, både i storlek och utseende.

Bigz diesen är helt underbara vad gäller att skära genom tjockare material och skär dom som smör!

Då var det allt for idag! Hoppas ni gillade mitt kort! :-)

Flowers and gears

Hello all!

Here is my new card with wonderful Sizzix dies. As usually I made the background using stamps, watercolour and a gel pen. But this time I decided to add some "steampunk" elements to my style.

I used foam tape for the hearts:

Sizzix Bigz Die - Flowers, 3-D
Sizzix Accessory - Susan's Garden Tool Kit

Всем привет!

Это моя новая открыточка, в которой я решила к своему стандартному стилю добавить элементы "стимпанка" - это шестеренки с сердечками, которые можно использовать и как отдельные элементы. Роза и пион сделаны с помощью ножей, а сердечки я приклеила на объемный скотч.

Всем хорошего дня!

Scrappy Crossroads sew along by Lori Holt

Hi again ! Today I  want to share a new project that I´m working on and it´s sure you have heard lately. First I will tell you I was wishing to get my package with all these nice fabrics with a vintage  and  childhood touch. I spent time chosing them so it was a pleasure when I could   see them in my hands.
They are  from the collections : Toy Box, 1930´s Classics, Pam Kitty Picnic, Aunt Grace Miniatures, Old New Fabric Collection 30', Everything but the kitchen sink X, Storybook Playtime, Vintage Happy....... So with these beauties I  took my  Big Shot and started to cut .....

My plans were different at the begining but then I found the sew along Scrappy Crossroads  by Lori Holt  ( Bee in my bonnet )  for this summer .If you are a vintage girl and love patchwork, you know her , sure. That is my case, I love Lori Holt work and like instagramer  I went to there I learnt about her scrappy crossroads  tutorial soooo easy and perfect for my loved fabrics.

It looks like the block is being done for lot of quilters and you can find vartiations because the fabric combination.
So I took my Sizzix Bigz XL 25" Die - Squares, 2" Finished (2 1/2" Unfinished  just the size that the tuto calls,  and  cut a bunch of them. You will need too  4.5" squares , mine are white.

I spent some time playing with my squares on a mini design board ( you can find Lori ´s tutorial in her blog if you like )  and sew quickly.

Here it is my first block finished. I plan doing three more and complete a quilt.

I´m in love with this scrappy block and my die that let me to save time.

Hola de nuevo, Hoy quiero compartir con vosotros un nuevo proyccto que tengo en curso y que seguro habéis oído hablar de él.

Pero primero os contaré que estaba deseando recibir mi paquete con nuevas telas con un aire vintage e infantile.La verdad es que estuve un montón de tiempo eligiendo las que quería y ahora que las tengo ha merecido la pena.

Son de las siguientes colecciones si te interesa: Toy Box, 1930´s Classics, Pam Kitty Picnic, Aunt Grace Miniatures, Old New Fabric Collection 30', Everything but the kitchen sink X, Storybook Playtime, Vintage Happy.

En un principio los planes eran otros pero entonces encontré este bloque en el blog de 

Lori Holt  ( Bee in my bonnet ) que está haciendo para este verano. Si eres una chica con estilo vintage y te gusta el patchwork , entonces  la conoces seguro. A mí me encanta el trabajo que hace y como instagramer fui a su cuenta y ver cómo era el tutorial, facilísimo y perfecto para las telas que había recibido.

Al parecer el bloque está siendo hecho por un montón de quilters y puedes encontrar variaciones en función de las telas escogidas.

Así que cogí mi troquel  

Sizzix Bigz XL 25" Die - Squares, 2" Finished (2 1/2" Unfinished  ,justo el tamaño requerido de cuadrados y corté un montón. También necesitarás cuadrados de 4.5” , en mi caso en tela blanca.

Estuve un rato probando mis cuadrados en mi tablero de diseño ( puedes encontrar el tutorial en el blog de Lori ) y lo cosí rápidamente.

En la última foto podéis verlo acabado. Haré tres más para completar una colcha. Me encanta este bloque y mi troquel que me permite ahorrar  bastante tiempo.

Ve a Instagram y allí a la cuenta de “ beelori1” si quieres intentarlo.

Muchas gracias a Lori Holt por este tutorial y tantos otros que ofrecen en su blog.

Que tengas un maravilloso fin de semana
Cariños

Fresh hydrangeas and winged beauties



Welcome to another Sizzix blog post, in which I would like to share with you my new inspiration, created using the fantastic Sizzix dies and Big Shot machine.

This time I decided to create a tag in the summery, fresh colors, which can be a small home décor, an element of greeting card or addition to gift wrapping. The main decoration in my tag is a bouquet of hydrangea, created using a set of dies designed to create handmade flowers from a very popular Susan’s Garden line - Susan’s Garden - Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 5PK - Flower, Hydrangea.

Dies from this set cut out tiny hydrangea petals, I cut them and using fantastic Sizzix Accessory - Susan's Garden Tool Kit, I tried to add more dimension and more realistic look to my small bouquet. After modeled of each petal, I sprayed them with a turquoise mist, and when petals dried I adhered together each part of each flower. After gluing and dried petals, I embellished centre of each flower creating a  small dots using 3D paints (you can use liquid pearls as well). Before 3D paint dried, I sprinkled petals with turquoise embossing powder, without melting it, and only creating light texture on the petals. In addition to the petals, I cut out the leaves, using dies from the sets: Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 5PK - Flower, Hydrangea and Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 8PK - Flower, Rose. Leaves was also modeled with a Sizzix Accessory - Susan's Garden Tool Kit. I really love the non-stick pad from this set - allows you to ink the edges of the petals and leaves or coloring using any other mediums - any paint, mist or ink do not stick to this small but very practical mat and can be easily washed off (wet wipes or paper towel).

Another dominant embellishment on my tag are absolutely wonderful butterflies, cut out with new dies from the line Prima Marketing Flora Grande line - Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 2PK - Winged Beauties. These extraordinary dies from Thinlits series are the essence of gentleness and romanticism – die cutting with these dies is very comfortable, and the cutouts are beautiful, very open-work and very versatile. I cut out butterflies using white card stock and colored them a little bit using turquoise mist.

Have a lovely, creative weekend!

****************************

Witam serdecznie w kolejnym poście, w którym chciałabym podzielić się inspiracją stworzoną z wykorzystaniem fantastycznych wykrojników Sizzix.

Tym razem postanowiłam stworzyć tag w letniej, świeżej kolorystyce, który może stać się niewielkim elementem wystroju wnętrz, elementem na kartce okolicznościowej lub dodatkiem do prezentu. Główną ozdobą w moim tagu jest bukiecik hortensji, stworzony z pomocą kompletu wykrojników do samodzielnego tworzenia przestrzennych kwiatów z serii Susan’s Garden - Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 5PK - Flower, Hydrangea.

Wykrojniki z tego zestawu wycinają maleńkie płatki hortensji, które po wycięciu modelowałam za pomocą zestawu narzędzi do tego przeznaczonych - Sizzix Accessory - Susan's Garden Tool Kit. Po wymodelowaniu każdego płatka, spryskałam je turkusową mgiełką, wysuszyłam, a następnie sklejałam ze sobą części każdego kwiatka. Po sklejeniu i wyschnięciu płatków, ozdobiłam środki tworząc małe kropeczki z farbki 3D. Zanim farbka 3D wyschła, posypałam płatki turkusowym pudrem do embossingu, nie topiąc go, a jedynie tworząc lekką teksturę na płatkach. Oprócz płatków, wycięłam również liście, korzystając z wykrojników z zestawów: Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 5PK - Flower, Hydrangea i Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 8PK - Flower, Rose. Liście również modelowałam narzędziami z zestawu Sizzix Accessory - Susan's Garden Tool Kit. Ogromnie podoba mi się mata „Non-stick pad” z tego zestawu - pozwala na tuszowanie brzegów płatków i liści czy kolorowanie innymi mediami - żadne media nie przywierają do tej małej ale bardzo praktycznej maty i z łatwością dają się zmyć (mokra chusteczka).

Kolejną dominującą ozdobą na moim tagu są przecudne motyle, wycięte za pomocą nowych wykrojników z linii Flora Grande, sygnowanych logo marki Prima Marketing - Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 2PK - Winged Beauties. Te niezwykłe wykrojniki w serii Thinlits to esencja delikatności i romantyzmu - motyle wycinają się bardzo komfortowo, a wycinanki są przepiękne, bardzo ażurowe i bardzo uniwersalne. Motyle wycięłam w białym cienkim brystolu i pokolorowałam je, tak jak kwiatki - turkusową mgiełką.
