My set includes a Tooth Fairy doll with shoulder bag to keep the tooth, a Fairy Wand and a cute Tag Money Holder.

Per le amiche italiane! :)

Ciao! Ecco un nuovo appuntamento con Anna.

In questi giorni stavo pensando a qualche idea da realizzare per i bambini...

Perdere un dente da latte è una passo importante per i più piccoli. Così questa settimana ho creato questo piccolo set per la perdita dei dentini di una bambina. È possibile, cambiando i colori e qualche dettaglio, realizzarlo anche per un maschietto ;)

Il mio piccolo set comprende una “Fatina dei denti” con la borsetta a tracolla per conservare il dentino, una Bacchetta magica, che la fatina lascerà in dono ed una simpatica Tag per contenere i soldini che lascerà sempre la fatina in cambio del dente, così come da tradizione.

 
Fatina dei denti
materiali:
Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit (Powder Blue & Teal) (658300)
Sizzix Bigz Die - Hearts, True Affections (658923)
Sizzix Bigz Die - Doily, Classical Lace (658922)
avanzi di stoffa e feltro
twine
pennarello nero (per gli occhi)
lana (per i capelli e le braccia)
lana pom pom (per le gambe)
ovatta sintetica
makeup brush
colla a caldo
macchina da cucire & filo
 

Questa dolce fatina si può appende sulla maniglia della porta o sopra il letto ed ha una borsa a tracolla in feltro per conservare il dentino. Da riporre anche in futuro tra i ricordi della bambina. Per fare la fata utilizzare Doily, Classical Lace per tagliare un centrino dal feltro da usare come camicetta, usare la fustella Bigz dello Starter Kit per tagliare due cerchi per il viso e utilizzare due Cuori per creare le ali (cucite ed imbottite). Il resto del procedimento è tutto molto semplice e facilmente intuibile. Comunque ho usato un cerchio di stoffa a quadretti per il vestitino, lana pom pom per le gambe e altra lana per braccia e capelli. Sulla mini borsetta creata con un piccolo rettangolo di feltro ho incollato un cuoricino tagliato con la fustella Bigz dello Starter Kit.

 
Tag porta soldini
materiali:
Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit (Powder Blue & Teal) (658300)
Sizzix Movers & Shapers L Die - Tag & Bookplates (656938)
Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 2PK - Doily, Jewel Heart (658910)
Sizzix Bigz Die - Envelope & Tag, Mini (659180)
Sizzix Texture Fades Embossing Folders 2PK - Chevron & Lattice Set (659448)
cartoncino: bianco, rosa, rosa pallido
avanzi di patterned paper e stoffa
distress ink
twine
fiore crochet
paillettes
strass
 

Questa tag si può appendere come decorazione, ma in aggiunta ha una piccola tasca sul retro per mettere i soldi! La tasca l'ho creata con Bigz Die - Envelope & Tag, Mini, niente di più facile ed adatto allo scopo! La taschina prima d'incollarla l'ho pure embossata con la nuovissima mascherina Sizzix Texture Fades Embossing Folders 2PK - Chevron & Lattice Set (659448)!

Per la farfalla ho usato le fustelle dello Starter Kit, mentre centrino e cuore fanno parte dello stesso set Thinlits Die Set 2PK - Doily, Jewel Heart.

 
Bacchetta magica fatata
materiali:
Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit (Powder Blue & Teal) (658300)
Sizzix Bigz Die - Doily, Classical Lace (658922)
Sizzix Bigz Die - Snowflake Medallions, 3-D (658739)
Sizzix Framelits Die Set 8PK - Circles, Scallop (657552)
cartoncino: rosa pallido e glitter rosa
patterned paper
stoffa
spiedini di legno
colla a caldo
 

Volete provare a fare questa bacchetta? E' facilissimo! Avvolgere due o tre spiedini di legno con una striscia di tessuto incollandolo alle estremità. Tagliare una coccarda dalla carta fantasia e assemblarla secondo le istruzioni, incollando al centro un cerchio scallop glitterarto. Tagliare due Centrini dal cartoncino rosa ed incollare al manico della bacchetta, uno avanti, uno dietro, facendoli combaciare perfettamente. Applicare infine la coccarda e aggiungere strisce di tessuto o nastri alla base della bacchetta. Voilà!

 

Spero vi sia piaciuto il progetto di oggi dedicato ai bambini :)

Grazie per la visita! Alla prossima!

Quick´n´Easy: baby girl mini album cover by Janna Werner.

Hello there, this is Janna. Today I´d like to share a mini album with you, especially the cover. A lot of my friends are pregnant at the moment or just gave birth to a beautiful child. Therefore I thought I´d create a few baby mini albums in advance - you never know when you might need a small present ;) I used the new Big Shot, just love the new design (matches my craft room much better ;) ).

Material list:
657900 Big Shot or
658300 Big Shot Starter Kit
658353 Textured Impressions English Botanical
657551 Framelits Circles
white cardstock: American Crafts
patterned paper, envelopes, clip, sticker: Crate Paper
flower: Prima Marketing
spray: October Afternoon
sewing machine, binding ring


Now, let´s have a closer look at the mini album cover :)

I embossed a piece of white cardstock with the Textured Impressions English Botanical die. Then I added a few spritzers of turquoise spray to create a  playful and happy look.

Afterwards I cut a circle shape out of the cardstock, using one of the dies that come along in the Framelits Circles set. I glued a piece of patterned paper behind the white cardstock to add a title to the album. Then I bent the top edges - one to the inside, the other to the outside - to let the album cover appear softer. Instead of folding the edges sharply, I decided to roll them as this lets the cover appear more "girly". Also, the swirls in the embossing die add to the feminine look.

I added a few highlights on the inside, like tags, paper doilies and a clip. The flower and the sticker on top were attached with hot glue, just to make sure they won´t fall off.
As you can see, even a cover that was created within a few minutes can look very nice, happy and artsy. It does not always have to take hours to create a fantastic mini album.

I hope you enjoyed today´s inspiration, see you next week!
Janna


*****

Hallo, hier ist Janna. Heute möchte ich euch ein Mini Album zeigen, genauer gesagt das Cover des Albums. Viele meiner Freundinnen sind gerade schwanger oder haben kürzlich ein Kind zur Welt gebracht. Daher habe ich beschlossen, ein paar Baby Mini Alben vorzubereiten, man weiß ja nie, wann man mal ein kleines Geschenk braucht ;) Ich habe die neue Big Shot, verwendet das überarbeitete Design gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut (passt auch besser zu meinem Arbeitszimmer ;) ).

Materialliste:
657900 Big Shot oder
658300 Big Shot Starter Kit
658353 Textured Impressions English Botanical
657551 Framelits Circles
weißer Cardstock: American Crafts
Patterned Paper, Umschlag, Clip, Sticker: Crate Paper
Blume: Prima Marketing
Spray: October Afternoon
Nähmaschine, Bindering

Oben seht ihr die Detailaufnahmen des Covers.

Ich habe ein Stück weißen Cardstock mit der Textured Impressions English Botanical Die geprägt. Dann habe ich mit türkisfarbenem Spray Kleckse aufgetragen, um dem Ganzen ein verspieltes und fröhliches Aussehen zu verleihen.

Anschließend habe ich aus dem Cardstock einen Kreis ausgestanzt, dafür habe ich eine der Dies aus dem Framelits Circles Set genutzt. Hinter die Ausstanzung habe ich ein Stück Patterned Paper geklebt, das den Titel des Albums bildet. Die beiden oberen Ecken habe ich gebogen - eine nach innen, die andere nach außen. So wirkt das Cover weicher. Statt die Kanten scharf umzuknicken habe ich sie gerollt, das sieht etwas "mädchenhafter" aus. Das feminine Aussehen wird auch durch die geschwungenen Linien der Embossing Die betont.

Innendrin habe ich ein paar Highlights angebracht wie Tags, Papier-Doilies und Clips. Die Blume und den Aufkleber auf der Vorderseite habe ich mit Heißkleber befestigt, damit garantiert nichts abgeht. 
Wie man sieht, kann man auch innerhalb von ein paar Minuten ein tolles und fröhliches Cover herstellen. Es bedarf nicht immer stundenlanger Arbeit, um ein schönes Mini Album herzustellen.

Ich hoffe, euch hat die heutige Inspiration gefallen. Wir sehen uns nächste Woche!
