Mixed-Media Cover For Album


Hi All!

Daria is here. 

Today I would like to share a mixed-media cover for my new album. I started create album about me and I needed a cover. I used different cute things that I found at home (such as washers, bottle caps, parts of old clocks and etc.) and of course different dies.

I used Lace die to create more layers. I used Flowers dies to create beautiful flowers. And I used Gear die to create chipboard gear.

Also I used sprays, gesso, textured paste, alcohol inks, felt ribbon, resist canvas and etc.

Items used:
Big Shot Machine (657900)
Sizzix Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die - Flower Garden w/Scallops (657708)
Sizzix Sizzlits Die - Flower, Rose 3-D (658504)
Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 3PK - Flowering Quince (658410)
Sizzix Bigz Die - Gadget Gears (656636)

Have a nice day!

Daria.


Всем привет!

Сегодня я с обложкой для моего нового альбома. Альбом будет обо мне. И для кого как не для себя можно постараться и сделать что-то эдакое. Поэтому я решила сделать обложку в стиле микс-медиа, с использованием всяких штучек, что нашла дома и в строительном магазине (такие как шайбы, пластины, детали старых часов, крышки от бутылок и т.д.). Ну  и конечно не обошлось без ножей Sizzix.

Так же я использовала спреи, гессо, текстурную пасту, фетровую ленту, холст, пуговицы и т.д. В общем творила от души! :)

Материалы Sizzix:

Class inspired by Sizzix!

Last week i had the pleasure of teaching a class to a fantastic gropup of 21 ladies  not only from Warsaw, but whole Poland. It all happened during the 5th Polish Scrapbooking Convention, where Sizzix was one of our great sponsors.
My class was called "Tea for 2" and it is based on Prima papers and embellishments toghether with my favorite gel mediums, twines and some random findings. I decided that Sizzix cut-outs will be the main part of each composition - so all the students get them in their kits together with  a piece of extra chipboard which could be used during the class to cut out more elements: numbers, swirls, buttons and labels... for some of the students it was the "first time" with Sizzix Big Shot and they were having a lot of fun!


Here is the project I made during this class:

As you can see the whole composition is built and layered on the Bigz Dies - Gadget Gears cut-outs from one Tim Holtz Collections. (656626).

I love multi-layered  layout, I especially love the cluttered, clustered emellishments and splashes of stain, ink or paint.

Prima and Sizzix are a perfect match and using them toghether is a pure pleasure.
I hope you got inspired a bit - and see you soon! Now I'm off to prepare more projects  - CHA is coming!
Have a great creative week!
