Summer Layout by Gerry van Gent


Happy Sunday Sizzix friends!

I am sharing today with you a summer layout I created using

Big Shot Starter Kit and for my post today I used the pretty
butterfly thinlits/bigz die from the kit - Love it!

I decorated each butterfly with an Alphanumeric letter.

Recycling maps for cards and layouts by Paula Pascual


Last week I recorded a little segment for a UK TV program called The Crafty Beggars in which I showed some of my projects upcycling old papers including maps. Inspired by that I created two projects using old maps and the Big Shot Starter kit, one card and one quick layout. Maps are great as they have pattern, colour and they are free!



I just used the Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit  | 659765, maps, a used stamp, white and Kraft card, cork and spray ink.


Before I did anything, I glued the thin old map paper on to white card using spray adhesive. Then I die cut it using the larger Framelit heart from the Starter kit.
I then layer them together over a square piece of Kraft card. I attached it using foam pads and then added it to the card.


Finally, I added this lovely used stamp - rescued from a packaged sent from my best friend from the USA - and glued it to the card.


To make this quick and easy layout, I simply trimmed a piece of white card to measure 6 x8 inches. I spray gently the colours on the card and let then dry. Then I die cut the 1 from the map using one of the circle dies and the Heart using a cork thin sheet.

I hope you like it and inspires you to make use of those old maps and books laying around!

Mint layout by Karine



Hello!

Here I am today to show you a fresh lay-out realized last week-end for EntreArtistes with the latest collection from 4heures37! The newest 2 collections, Autumn & Winter, are mixed in my project which proves they can be adapted to every season!

Supply list:

Papers: 4heures37
Cardstock: Ephéméria
Alphabets: Webster's Pages
Embellishments: Ephéméria
Labels: 4heures37
Stencil: The Crafter's Workshops
Ink: Distress Ink Evergreen Bough
Stamp: Florilèges Design
Grey Versafine ink
Others: Stabilo Pen68, Woody
3D foam

Dies:

650515 :  Sizzix Big Shot Plus Starter Kit
660320 :  Sizzix Accessory -Precision Base Plate for intricate Thinlits Dies
660837 :  Sizzix Framelits Plus Die Set 10PK-bunting

This is a page I particularly like with my favorite colours of the moment! It is very easy to realize thanks to the triangle dies by Sizzix!

Start by cutting 3 pictures. Do not hesitate to create unusual framings. Get rid of the superfluous and go directly to the point!
Use several die shapes with different pattern papers and cardstocks. Then put your shapes on white cardstock which has been previously stamped on with a stamp “definition de l’été” (a summer definition).

Superimpose your shapes; glue some of them with 3D foam for more volume.

Then cut small foliage shapes & nice trees out of your 4heures37 pattern papers. Decorate with labels and here you are! Finish by making some splashes with your Stabilo Pen68 felt-tip pens.







Time for pictures now dring the class ! Thanks to my creative students !

Commencez par découper 3 photos, osez les cadrages non conventionnels, on élimine le superflus et on va à l'essentiel !
Utilisez plusieurs formes de découpes, des imprimés différents et du cardstcok. Placez ensuite vos formes sur votre cardstock blanc préalablement tamponné ici et là avec un tampon “définition de l'été”.

Superposez vos formes, montez certaines en 3D pour plus de relief.

Découpez ensuite des petits feuillages, des jolis arbres dans vos papiers imprimés 4heures37, décorez simplement avec des étiquettes et le tour est joué ! Eclaboussez enfin avec vos feutres Stabilo Pen68 en touche finale.

Together...




Hi everybody!


Today, I propose a page of scrap in the US format. I chose to scrap a picture taken by my daughter which highlights our complicity.


I played on the contrast of the colours with a soft pink and a stronger navy blue.



The asset of this page is, in my opinion, the layout. It is highlighted thanks to 2 rosettes realized with the die rosette of Tim holtZ.



Volume guaranteed!

I stressed this relief, thanks to embellishments and labels stuck on 3D foam.



I hope I have inspired you, see you soon!

paper: Swirlcards
strass: Scrapboukits

Have a good day,


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

Ensemble,

Aurjourd' hui, je vous propose une page de scrap au format US. J'ai choisi de scrapper une photo prise par ma fille qui nous met en valeur notre complicité.

J'ai joué sur le contraste des couleurs avec un rose tendre et un bleu marine plus soutenu.
L'atout de cette page est à mon sens, la mise en page mise en valeur grâce au 2 rosaces réalisées avec le die Rosace de Tim Holtz.

Le volume est garanti !
J'ai accentué ce relief, grâce à des embellissements  et des étiquettes collés sur de la mousse 3D.

J'espère vous avoir inspiré, à très vite!

Neon layout by Karine



Hello!

Are you up to a touch of neon to start October under the sign of color and good mood? I dived back with pleasure into my Neon kit which I used for a project I showed you last month :-)

Supply list:

Papers: Custom & Craft
Cardstock: American Crafts
Stickers: American Crafts, Heidi Swapp, Custom & Craft
Labels, dots: Ephéméria
Masking Tape: Hema
Izink: Aladine
Stabilo Pen68

Dies:

650515 : Sizzix Big Shot Plus Starter Kit
660320 : Sizzix Accessory -Precision Base Plate for intricate Thinlits Dies
660837 : Sizzix Framelits Plus Die Set 10PK-bunting
655128 : Sizzix Bigz Alphabet Set 7Dies-Serif Essentials

For this page I wanted to keep the atmosphere of the Custom & Craft papers, adding a touch of neon with Izink inks and the labels from Ephéméria!

I started by gluing my picture, stickers all around the picture and adding color with Izink inks and Stabilo Pen68 felt-tip pens. The stage is now set.

I cut small triangles out of paper scraps with my super die “Sizzix Framelits Plus Die Set 10PK-bunting”!!!! I love this new product and you shall find it on lots of my future creations!

And with the marvelous Alphabet die, I cut a “&” shape.

Then I added some splashes and some neon touches here and there to add some volume!

Time for pictures now!








Have a lovely day!

Karine

Bonjour !

Une petite touche de fluo pour débuter ce mois d'Octobre sous le signe de la couleur et de la bonne humeur, ça vous dit ? Je me suis replongée pour cette page avec grand plaisir dans mon kit Néon dont j'avais présenté le projet le mois dernier :)

Matériel :

Papiers : Custom&Crafts
Cardstock : American Crafts
Stickers : American Crafts, Heidi Swapp, Custom&Craft
Etiquettes, pastilles : Ephéméria
Masking Tape : Hema
Izink : Aladine
Stabilo Pen68

Dies :

650515 : Sizzix Big Shot Plus Starter Kit
660320 : Sizzix Accessory -Precision Base Plate for intricate Thinlits Dies
660837 : Sizzix Framelits Plus Die Set 10PK-bunting
655128Sizzix Bigz Alphabet Set 7Dies-Serif Essentials

Pour réaliser cette page j'avais dans l'idée de rester dans le design des papiers Custom&Craft et de rajouter une touche de fluo avec les encres Izink et les étiquettes Ephéméria !

J'ai commencé par coller ma photo, des autocollants tout autour, un peu de couleur avec les Izink et mes feutres Stabilo Pen68. Le décor est planté.

Dans mes chutes de papiers j'ai découpé des petits triangles avec mon super die “Sizzix Framelits Plus Die Set 10PK-bunting” !!!! Une nouveauté que j'adore et que vous allez sans nulle doute retrouver sur beaucoup de mes créations !

Encore une merveille avec le die Alphabet, dans lequel j'ai découpé le “&”.

J'ai ensuite complété ma page avec quelques éclaboussures et des petites touches néon tout en volume !
Bonne journée à vous
