Have a great weekend, Stephanie

Try diecutting your photos too!!



Hi! today I have a page in lovely bright colours to share. I had two rather similar pictures that I wanted to use on the same page, and to add a bit of pizazz I decided to try die cutting them. 

I quite like the look and will definitely do that again. I diecut another oval slightly larger to 

act as a frame to make the photo stand out more from the background, 

I embellished these frames with liquid pearls.

 These are the Sizzix products that I used:

Sizzix Big Shot starter kit

Sizzix oval framelits set

Sizzix Decorative strip  mini rosette die set

Sizzix frameworks die , Lattice

I also used patterned papers from Les Papiers de Pandore and flowers from Prima Marketing and Petaloo.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hejsan! Idag har jag en sida att visa som går i ljusa fina vårfärger.

Jag hade två liknande foton som jag ville använda tillsammans och bestämde mig för att prova skära runt dom med en die. Jag gillar verkligen hur det blev och kommer göra det många fler gånger. Jättekul! Jag skar ut en oval som var snäppet större än fotot också för att ha som en liten ram. Sedan pyntade jag denna med lite liquid pearls.

Här är Sizzix produkterna jag använde:

Sizzix Big Shot starter kit

Sizzix oval framelits set

Sizzix Decorative strip  mini rosette die set

Sizzix frameworks die , Lattice

Jag använde också vackra papper från Les Papiers de Pandore och underbara blommor från 

Prima Marketing och Petaloo.

Hugs/Kram!!

A Girly Layout by Gerry van Gent

Hello Sizzix friends and 

Happy Sunday!

Today I would love to share with you a layout using
different Sizzix dies and an embossing folder. This is also
one of the  layouts I was teaching during  my workshops in 2013.

657900 Sizzix Big Shot machine

658240 Sizzix Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die Brick Wall

657670 Sizzix Textured Impressions Embossing Folders 

- Roses & Frame Set

658946 Sizzix Thinlits Die Decorative Border & Hearts

659069 Sizzix Thinlits Die Butterfly, Flowers & Lattice

658506 Sizzix Sizzlits Die Vintage Doily

*   *   *

The Decorative heart border was cut in many pieces and

spread over the layout to give more texture.

The photo was placed in an embossed frame.

The inside rectangle was simply removed from the

embossed frame and instead a photo was adhered.

*     *     *

Both vintage doilies were used to layer the flowers.

The lattice and the brick wall dies were used both 

to decorate the background. For this purpose I once again

cut the dies into different sizes and adhered them

mainly by using modelling paste.

Other Products I used:

Prima Marketing - papers, flowers and stamps

Prima Marketing & Ingvild Bolme - distressing tool & craft knife

Wishing you Happy Holidays with your loved ones!

"Congratulations" Card by Gerry van Gent

Happy Sunday Sizzix friends!

Gerry here today to share with you a greeting card

I created for my blog post today.

658356 Sizzix Textured Impressions Embossing Folder Rose Vines & Trellis Set

659069 Sizzix Thinlits Die Set Butterfly, Flowers & Lattice

*   *   *

Card Size: 13.5 cm x 13.5 cm

I used sand paper to distress the embossed parts of my background paper

so it will pop up. 

The title was the the last touch I added to my card.

I didn`t have the size and font I liked to use as a title

so I used a computer font and printed the word "Congratulations",

distressed it with ink and adhered it on the card.

I used Karen Burniston's Funky 3D Label as a base of the bookplate.

My card has dimension as I use different layers and....generous amount of foam squares :-)

OTHER PRODUCTS I USED:

Maja Design "Walking in the Forest" collection

Webster's Pages Silhouette resin

Prima Marketing fabric flower

decorate the top of the frame and the other part was used on the bottom as a border.
