Summer's gone!

Hi everybody!

A few days ago I was in Bouzigues (France) for a small farewell summer journey.

I love the sun light at the end of the summer, and the photos always are great in this season, so making a farewell summer Layout was required!

Here you can see some details of my layout, the white die cuts over a liquid watercolor background are always a great idea!!

This are the Sizzix products used in this project:

¡Hola a todo el mundo!

Hace unos días estuve en Bouzigues (Francia) en un pequeño viaje de despedida del verano.

"You & Me = Selfie" by Gent van Gent

Hello Sizzix Friends!

Today I am sharing another layout which is part of our

Summer Vacation (2014) album. Love that selfie of hubby and I -

it has a special place in our family album :-)

For this layout I combined New & Old dies and of course I used one my 

favourite paper punches by Sizzix - Butterfly, Large!

The colour combination is not the usual Summer colour combo -

it has to do with the country we were on vacation - Egypt :-)

mixing the pretty Sizzix florals and fussy cut paper flowers.

once again, I used it in a separate parts on my project.

I combined one of the Tribal Borders with

the scallop border from the Starter Kit.

"Do What You Love" Layout by Gerry van Gent

Hello Sizzix friends!

I hope you all have a lovely Sunday :-)

and the brand new Sizzix Paper Punch "Butterfly" by Tim Holtz.

Punches are soon available in your local retailer!

I have die cut multiple times all dies so I can layer flowers and florals.

Be sure to use foam tape/squares if you want to create more dimension!

The NEW Butterfly paper punch is amazing!

Easy to use and easy to store - there is a locking latch!

You can punch various materials as cork, vellum, craft metal/plastic,

flexible magnet, up to 3 sheets of cardstock, etc.

 For my project I simply punched pattern paper.

Layered two butterflies and decorated with pearls.

Do What You Love thinlits die by Craft Asylum is one of

my favourites so far in this collection - not only beautiful with

its intricate design but also so playful - 

it gives you many opportunities to use the designs! 

For my project I die cut multiple time the design using

different colours cardstock - I used the quote separately!

OTHER PRODUCTS USED:

Prima Marketing pattern paper

cardstock

pearls

Notebook

Hello there,

Today I want to show you another SIZZIX Thinlits Die which is now available:

 The Thinlits Die is so versatile. I cut it out several times and used many different colors of paper. Then I reassembled the small single parts to a colorful flower. Even the "waste pieces" are wonderfully suitable for new creations of small flowers.

Do you like this die as much as me?

I wish you a nice weekend!

Annika
