657188:  Sizzix Bigz Die- Tiny Tabs & Tags

I worked this double page in my favorite color tones: sea green! I worked on a sea green color chart to make my future holidays pictures stand out! This is a good way to think ahead of sun & beach! It’s perfect for your mood!

I used my Sizzix dies as a finishing touch, for the decoration part. I used my favorite Bigz die which is the “Sizzix Bigz Die- Tiny Tabs & Tags” to cut a small tab out of blue paper. It is so easy to insert in a project and it can be cut in various material!

The die “Hello” is perfect to welcome me in this nice little town that is Cassis! I advise you to glue it with a spray can as this die is really thin!

Then we end the decoration part by inserting a pretty lace heart coming from the Big Shot Plus Starter Kit! We will make it stand out by gluing it with 3D foam adhesive.

Here are some pictures for you!

Have a nice day,

Karine

J'ai travaillé ici une double page dans mes couleurs préférés à savoir vert eau ! Tout un travail en nuances de couleurs pour mettre en valeur mes futures photos de vacances ! Un moyen d'anticiper soleil et plage ! C'est parfait pour le moral !

J'ai utilisé mes dies Sizzix en phase finale, c'est à dire pour la partie décoration. J'ai utilisé mon Bigz favori à savoir le “Sizzix Bigz Die- Tiny Tabs & Tags” pour découper un petit onglet dans du papier bleu. Il est si facile à caser et se découpe avec toutes sortes de matières !

Le die “Hello” pour souhaiter la bienvenue dans la jolie petite ville de Cassis ! A coller de préférer avec une bombe car cette découpe est ultra fine !

Pour terminer un joli coeur dentellé provenant du kit de départ de la Big Shot Plus ! Celui-ci sera mis en valeur et en relief à l'aide de mousses 3D.

Voici maintenant quelques extraits !

Très bonne journée à vous

A masculine layout

Today I fancied doing a layout to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday last year. I can't believe myself that he is 40 already but he certainly is. 

I went for a 6 x 8" layout which is my current favourite. Its not too small and the proportions are just right for me. 

I selected a few dies that i wanted to use which are:

Sizzix® Thinlits™ Die Set 6PK - Butterfly Cards by Paula Pascual 659972 - 

Sizzix Bigz XL Alphabet Die - Block Talk Capital

Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 7PK - Handwritten Love

The Butterfly card set comes with several very useful dies. I love the feel of the postage stamp so i designed two for this set that actually work together both nesting and sideways.

No matter which way you want to distribute them the edges match!

I die cut several of the large and small ones out of white card. then I distress them using Pumice Stone ink pad.

My husband does like butterflies but not in feminine colours, so I decided to add a detail but not to obvious. Using the smaller die I embossed using the Sizzix Texturz Silicone Rubber pad and the Sizzix Texturz Impressions Pad. I followed the instructions on the multipurpose platform on how to layer it. Basically Tab 1 - clear cutting plate - die with the cutting side up - card - rubber - Impressions pad.

The effect is pretty unique! I highlighted it with distress inks. I die cut the 40 and the words and glue them. I like to use the foam strips from Stix2 as they come in two small widths and you can cut them to the desired length. Makes live so much easier!

On elf the beauties of this set is that you have matching dies to layer on to top of the postage stamp die cuts. I die cut the photos to match the stamps perfectly, no measuring needed!

I spray some ink on the background and assemble some elements over the edge, and there it was finished:

Its a bit different from my usual pretty and clean style, but I think it is perfect to remember that fabulous day!

Project Life cards

 

 

For a few years I've jumped on (and eventually fallen off) the Project Life wagon and yet I am giving the concept another go this year. Hopefully I've simplified my approach enough to make an entire album worth of pocket pages.

 

I wanted to create some personal and unique cards for my album and to that end Sizzix products are just the thing you need. My album will be held in black, white, grey, kraft and gold colours so those are the colours I used for my various journaling and filler cards.

 

 

This first card is meant to be used for journaling. I diecut two rectangles using dies from Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards and Thinlits Die Set 6PK - Butterfly Cards and layered them on top of each other before stitching along the top. At the bottom I stamped and arrow using Framelits Die Set 12PK w/Stamps - Here & There.

 

This set is made using dies from Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards and I simply diecut the frames and then added some patterned vellum on the backsides.

 

For the third set I wanted to use the speech bubbles from Thinlits Die Set 6PK - I Heart This and combine them with words from Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards . I embellished each word with a golden heart diecut with dies from the same sets.

 

 

The last set sports more love. I've used dies from Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards to create both cards.

 

 

Supply list:

Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit (Powder Blue & Teal)
Sizzix Accessory - Magnetic Platform for Wafer-Thin Dies

Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards
Thinlits Die Set 6PK - Butterfly Cards
Framelits Die Set 12PK w/Stamps - Here & There
Thinlits Die Set 6PK - I Heart This
Cardstock
Glitter paper
Thread
Sewing maching
 

---o---

Igennem nogle år har jeg forsøgt at hoppe med på Project Life-bølgen, men jeg er faldet af hvert år. Alligevel forsøger jeg igen i år, og jeg håber, at jeg har valgt en så simpel tilgangsvinkel, at jeg kan holde ud hele året.

Jeg havde lyst til at lave nogle personlige og unikke kort til mit album, og til det formål er Sizzix-produkter lige i øjet. Mit album bliver holdt i sort, hvid, grå, kraft og guld, og derfor har jeg lavet mine journaling- og fillerkort i de farver.

Det første kort er tænkt til journaling. Jeg udstansede to rektangler med dies fra Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards og Thinlits Die Set 6PK - Butterfly Cards, hvorefter jeg lagde dem ovenpå hinanden og syede henover toppen. I bunden stemplede jeg en pil med et stempel fra Framelits Die Set 12PK w/Stamps - Here & There.

Dette sæt er lavet med dies fra Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards , som jeg udstansede og derefter limede mønstret vellum bagpå.

Til det tredje sæt ville jeg bruge taleboblerne fra Thinlits Die Set 6PK - I Heart This, og jeg kombinerede dem med ord fra Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards. Jeg dekorerede hvert ord med hjerter fra de samme sæt.

Det sidste sæt byder på mere kærlighed, og jeg brugte dies fra Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards til begge kort.

Hello!

A creation inspired by the Project Life today thanks to my set “Life made simple – anniversaire #2”.

Supply list: Folders (Becky Higgins pour American Crafts ); Pattern papers (Jenni Bowlin Mercantile); Project Life cards (Studio Calico); Cardstock (American Crafts); Alphabets (American Crafts, Basic Grey); Stickers (October Afternoon, American Crafts, Studio Calico); Rub-ons (Jenni Bowlin Studio, 7Gypsies); Badge (Jenni Bowlin Studio); Masking Tape, masking tape (Basic Grey) ; Stamps (Florilèges Design); Inks (Grey & black Versafine)

Dies:

659748 : Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 3PK-Birthday#2

658300 : Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit

I am a big fan of the Project Life so you can imagine how pleased I was when I received the dies from the "Life made simple" collection! They’re all fantastic & so versatile!

The aim here is to create your own Project Life cards thanks to the Sizzix dies! Recycle your pattern papers or cardstock scraps and transform them into Project Life cards!

I also used a chevrons-patterned die that I particularly like! Only one go in the Big Shot and your card is cut out, scooped-out and ready to use! Here I used the "Life Made Simple-Anniversaire #2" set.

The picture will be glued with 3D adhesive for more volume.

Don’t forget that you can keep your scooped-out shapes for a future creation!

What about you? Are you addicted to Project Life?

Have a lovely day,

Karine

Je suis fan du Project Life, vous n'imaginez pas ma joie lorsque j'ai reçu les dies de la collection "Life made simple"! Ils sont tous à tomber et tellement versatiles !

L'idée est ici de fabriquer ses propres cartes Project Life grâce aux dies Sizzix! Recyclez vos chutes de papiers imprimés, de cardstock et transformez-les en cartes Project Life !

J'ai utilisé ici une découpe Sizzix Chevrons que j'affectionne particulièrement ! Un simple passage à la Big Shot et votre carte est découpée, évidée et prête à l'emploi ! J'ai utilisé ici le set "Life Made Simple-Anniversaire #2"

La photo sera ensuite collée à l'aide de mousse 3D pour plus de relief.

Pensez à conserver les formes évidées pour une prochaine utilisation !

Et vous ? Addict au Project Life ?

Bonne journée
