Believe in YOURSELF

Hello to everyone:) It`s Wednesday and my turn to show my card I  have done.

Sizzix products:
Sizzix Big Shot Machine 657900
Sizzix Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die - Card Edges, Flower Vines 658073

Other supplies:
Pion Design papers: From My Heart II 6 × 6" , Flower Frames, A Day in May
white and grey corrugated cardboard
flowers
gesso and structure paste
Stempelglede stamp "Believe in yourself"
Distress Ink Walnut Stain
stencil "brick wall"
grey paper yarn
glue

How to do:

1. Apply gesso on to the patterned paper (size 6 × 6") and allow it to dry. Then use brick wall stencil and apply structure paste like in the second picture. Once again allow to dry.
2. Cut the flower vines using Sizzix Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die - Card Edges, Flower Vines 658073. 

3. Tear a piece of grey corrugated cardboard 5 × 12 cm. Place this and both of the floral vines in the middle of the patterned paper and sew them like in the picture. I also cut the strips (1,5 cm) off both of the sides because it looked better this way.

4. Sew the edges, distress them and add Distress Ink Walnut Stain.

5. Decorate the card now. Place the piece of  (1,5 × 7,5 cm) white corrugated cardboard horizontally in the middle of the card.Take a piece of paper yarn and make the circle (diameter 4 - 5 cm). Glue it on to the white corrugated cardboard. Add the flowers like picture above.

6. Take little pieces of different papers f.e. cut outs from 6 × 6" designs and place them around the flowers. 

7. Stamp the sentiment and glue it under the flowers. Finally add some gesso on to the edges and tape the cover on to the card board.

Have a nice day,

Minna

Card

Hi everybody!

For today's post I have made a card. 

This is how I made it:

1. First I cut out four borders using the Botanical & Rose Garden card edges and glued them to a square piece of paper (Papers are from Maja Design).

2. On top of the paper I glued the Oval Ornate and the Renaissance Frame. 

3. The flower in the middle is premade. 

4. I cut out a banner and added the title and some rhinestones.

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

Hej på er!

Dagens inlägg är ett kort.

Så här har jag gjort det:

1. Först stansade jag ut fyra bårder genom att använda the Botanical & Rose Garden card edges och klistrade dem på ett kvadratiskt papper (pappren är från Maja Design).

2. På pappret klistrade jag på the Oval Ornate och the Renaissance Frame. 

3. Blomman i mitten är en färdig pappersblomma.

4. Jag klippte sen ut en banner och lade till titeln och några kristaller.

Всем привет!

Сегодня я хочу показать, как сделать не сложный, но интересный тег на подарок.

1. Вырежьте тег из картона. Затем вырежьте ножом Washer Border бордюр и используйте его как трафарет с зеленым спреем. Уберите бордюр и побрызгайте тег желтым спреем.

2. Приклейте различные элементы, такие как цветы, декоративный скотч, сетка, жемчужинки и т.д. Я так же вырезала ножом Card Edges #2 бордюрчики, и некоторые приклеила для более интересных форм.

3. Побрызгайте сверху спреями. Я брызгала желтым, зеленым и голубым. Когда спрей высох я взяла акриловую краску, и пальцем прошлась по некоторым элементам краской.  Тег готов.

Smash book



Hi al!

Today I would like to show you two-page layouts to my smash book. Last year we had trip to Antalya. And these pages are about the Beach and the Sea. In my smash book I like to create a lot of layers. I used different papers, decorative tapes, journaling cards, stickers and etc to create a lot of layers. And dies are my big helpers.

This is my first two-page layout. It’s about the Beach. I created these pages some time ago.

Items used:

Big Shot Machine (655268)

Sizzix Originals Die - Hearts, Primitive #3 (657021)

Sizzix Bigz XL Die - Card Fronts, Notched & Beveled (657530)

I used hearts die to create my background more interesting. And I used the resulting holes to write my journaling. Also I used Make It Crafty digi stamp to create this beach umbrella. I colored it with Prismacolor pencils, cut out and glue onto layout. 

I used Card Fronts die to create the opening element. I like to use different opening elements to fit on the page many photos.

This is my second two-page layout. It’s about the Sea. And these pages are new.

Items used:

Big Shot Machine (655268)

Sizzix Bigz Die - Corners, Flourish #2 (656554)

Sizzix Bigz Die - Borders & Hydrangeas (657721)

Sizzix Bigz Die - Tiny Tabs & Tags (657188)

I used Flourish die – because they are look like waves. And I used more different dies to make my pages more varied.

Have a nice day

Daria.

Всем привет!

Сегодня я хочу показать вам два разворота в мой смешбук. Прошлым летом мы ездили в Анталию и об этой поездке я создаю свой смеш. Два разворота, которые я хочу сегодня показать рассказывают о море и пляже.
Я люблю, чтобы в моем смеше было много разных слоев, открывающихся элементов и т.д. Для этого я использую различные бумажки, декоративный скотч, наклейки, и конечно вырубки, сделанные с помощью Big Shot.

Первый разворот о пляже. Я сделала его некоторое время назад.

Я использовала нож с сердечками, и использовала не сами сердца, а то, что осталось после их вырезания. Мне кажется получилось интересно, плюс можно в отверстиях написать журналинг. Так же я использовала нож для создания открыток с фигурными краями. С его помощью я сделала открывающийся элемент для размещения дополнительных фотографий и журналинга.

Второй разворот о море. И это новый разворот.

Я использовала нож с завитками, т.к. завитки ассоциируются у меня с волнами, и другие ножи (список ниже), чтобы сделать странички более разнообразными.

This is Gerry here today to share with you my latest layout

created with beautiful Sizzix die-cuts.

For the Damask border (Damask & Scallop Borders), which was die-cut twice,

I used white cardstock. The "doily" part was carefully cut from the

lattice one and used as layers on my project.

In this way, I gave three different looks of the Damask Border.

Damask & Scallop Borders

The Scallop Border was die-cut also twice - this time I used

different pattern papers. I layered them on top of each other.

I cut the leaves from the decorative strip and used them

separately to decorate the flowers.

The top part of the frame (Frames, Fancy Rectangle) was 

cut and placed separately behind the lattice layer.

Other Products I used:

"Firefly" collection - Prima Marketing

Mask, stamps, flowers, embellishments - Prima Marketing

Hope you enjoyed my project today!

Op deze manier heb ik drie verschillende uitzichten van het Damask & Scallop Borders laten zien.

De schelp rand is ook twee keer gestanst - deze keer heb ik patroon papier gebruikt.

De twee laagjes heb ik op elkaar geplaatst en vervolgens geplakt.

"Sweet Romance" Layout by Gerry



Happy Sunday crafty friends!

Gerry`s here today to share with you my latest layout inspired

by approaching beautiful Valentine`s Day. Yes, I`m still in Love with

my sweetheart :-) and I do celebrate Valentine`s Day :-)

I used different Sizzix dies to create this layout...

{655268} Sizzix Big Shot Machine

{658072} Sizzix Sizzlits Dec. Strip Die - Card Edges, Dec. Accents & Leaves

{658000} Sizzix Sizzlits Dec. Strip Die - Decorative Hearts

{657791} Sizzix Sizzlits Dec. Strip Die - Birds On A Wire

{657906} Sizzix Framelits Dies Set - Frame, Snowflake

{658039} Sizzix Bigz Die - Ornate Plate

{658946} Sizzix Thinlits Die Set - Decorative Border & Heart

To frame our photo I chose the beautiful Decorative Accents from the decorative strip die.

I cut it 4 times and created a frame by adhering all the strips in the shape of a square.

N.B. I adhered the "frame" on a piece of a cardstock to make it stable.

Because I needed the scallop circle of the Ornate Plate I cut carefully out the inside part.

Once the Ornate Plate was ready I glued, in the middle, the circle from the Frame, Snowflake Die Set.

The Decorative Hearts Strip Die was used on my layout as a mask.

I first cut it and then used two different colours ink (pink and yellow) for the masking itself.

Don't you just love the NEW Thinlits Dies? All of them have such gorgeous designs and can be used for various occasions. For my project I used the Decorative Border & Hearts Thinlits dies. I chose the heart from the set and I created my heart embellishment. As a final touch I added Crackle Accent on top.

The two yellow "swirls" I used here are actually leftovers from the frame I created for the photo.

OTHER PRODUCTS I USED:

"Modern Romance" collection from Webster's Pages

Nederlandse vertaling

Goede zondag creatieve vrienden!

Vandaag ga ik je mijn laatste scrapbook pagina laten zien,

geïnspireerd door Valentijnsdag.

Ja, ik ben nog steeds verliefd and ik vier die dag met groot plezier.

Om deze pagina te maken heb ik verschillende Sizzix stansen gebruikt...

{655268} Sizzix Big Shot Machine

{658072} Sizzix Sizzlits Dec. Strip Die - Card Edges, Dec. Accents & Leaves

{658000} Sizzix Sizzlits Dec. Strip Die - Decorative Hearts

{657791} Sizzix Sizzlits Dec. Strip Die - Birds On A Wire

{657906} Sizzix Framelits Dies Set - Frame, Snowflake

{658039} Sizzix Bigz Die - Ornate Plate

{658946} Sizzix Thinlits Die Set - Decorative Border & Heart

* * *

Om de foto in te lijsten heb ik het mooie Decorative Accents stans gebruikt.

Ik heb het 4 keer gestanst en ik heb het in een vierkant vormpje geplakt. 

N.B. Het "lijstje" heb ik op een cardstock geplakt.

* * *

Ik heb voorzichtig de binnenkant uitgeknipt omdat ik de scallop cirkel van de Ornate Plate nodig had.

* * * 

Toen de Ornate Plate klaar was heb ik de cirkel van de Frame, Snowflake Die Set in het midden geplakt.

* * * 

De Decorative Hearts Strip Die heb ik op mijn pagina als een masker gebruikt.

Eerst heb ik de hartjes rand gestanst en vervolgens heb ik twee kleuren (geel en roze) inkt gebruikt.

* * *

Vindt u de nieuwe Thinlits Dies niet prachtig? Ze hebben allemaal zulke mooie ontwerpen en zijn ze geschikt voor iedere gelegenheid. Voor mijn project heb ik de Decorative Border & Hearts Thinlits gebruikt. Ik heb het hartje van de set gekozen en ik heb mij eigen embellishment gecreëerd. Uiteindelijk heb ik Crackle Accent gebruikt. 

* * * 

De twee gele "swirls" zijn overgebleven van het uitgestanste "foto lijstje".

* * * 

I hope you enjoyed my project today!

Have a Sizzix day!

Gerry
