Colourful Cards by Gerry van Gent

Hello Sizzix Friends and Happy 1st of March!!

Can you believe it? It is already March? Time surely flies :-)

I am already in a Spring mood and I am absolutely looking forward

to some warm and colourful season like Spring. And by saying this

my projects today are two cards in bright, happy and cheerful colours.

My first card is featuring the diamonds Mixed Media die....

I basically die cut the diamonds twice on a piece of white cardstock.

Then I misted the cardstock and adhered it on top of another white piece of cardstock.

After that I tore it diagonally somewhere in the middle - 

I kind of resized it to fit on the front of my (14 cm x 10 cm) card.

The stamped and die cut Word Label was used to decorate the flower.

I simply adhered it in the center of the flower.

I added glitter for a bit of shiny effect.

And my second card today...

To make this card I used the Circles dies with approx. sizes 4 1/4" and 3 3/4".

NEW 660220 Sizzix Thinlits Die Set Mixed Media

NEW 660210 Sizzix Thinlits Die Set Alphanumeric

*      *      *

I used white cardstock to die cut the Circle with size 3 3/4".

Then I die cut the Mixed Media die twice - top and bottom of the circle.

Once ready I misted it in green and placed it 

underneath another die-cut Circle with size 3 3/4". 

The Alphanumeric letters were die cut twice using white and red cardstock.

The red letters I used as shadow letters.

Hope you enjoyed my "Spring-inspired" cards today!

Thank you so much for visiting us today!

Have a creative Sunday!
