Zombie Eyes








Hey guys, 
after showing you some christmas cards the last weeks, I have a really easy halloween card for you. You just need your watercolors, white cardstock and a brush. :) And of course, the Sizzix Big Shot Plus Machine Only (White & Gray) #660020 and the Sizzix Framelits Die Set 8PK - Circles #657551.


  1. Draw some circles in different colors and very important: BE MESSY. These will be the zombie eyes for our card. Let it dry!
  2. Now use black watercolor to add the pupil of the eyes. I made some circles and stripes in different sizes. This looks more spooky! ;)
  3. Cut them out with your Big Shot Plus and put them onto your card. I decided to place a fun sentiment between them.
That´s it! :)


The fun fact about this card is, that you just imagine zombie eyes on this card at the second sight. My husband was like "oh, what a beautiful pattern" and than he realized what it really was. ;)

I hope I could inspire you to create your own spooooooky cards. :)
Have a nice day, xo Julia

Bat Treat Box


 Hi friends!


Today we use our Big Shot to make a simple box of sweets for Halloween.

You need:



Cut the box with your box die and assemble using the bi-adhesive tape.

Use the box as a guide to draw bat wings from the right size, cut and stick it behind the box.

Cut two elongated triangles and paste it behind the box to make the horns. Cut two small triangles and paste inside of the lid of the box, in the front, to make the tusks. Stick the eyes.


This box is perfect with the Halloween garland two weeks ago I showed you, not you think?



What do you think? A quick and fun idea for Halloween. See you in the nex tutorial!

Spider Garland for Halloween


Hi friends!

 Today we will make a simple Spider Garland for Halloween, using two basic dies as the Circles and the Alphabet.

 I used these spiders to make a garland, but can also serve as cake toppers by hitting a stick, or to decorate whatever comes to mind.



You need:


Cut circles with our Big Shot and Circles Die, many circles as spiders want to do. I put cardboard for up to 6 at the same time to get 6 circles with a single cut. To make the legs I used the letter L of Alphabet Die, need 8 legs for spider .

 To make the spiders I glued four legs on each side of the circle on the back side, on the forward side glue the eyes. 

To mount the garland spiders, stick  on the thread with a piece of tape on the back side.

 What do you think? See you next Tuesday with a new tutorial!

Ciao amici!

Oggi faremo una semplice ghirlanda di ragnetti per Halloween, usando due fustelle basiche come i cerchi e le lettere. Io ho usato questi ragni per fare una ghirlanda, ma si possono benissimo usare per fare dei simpatici cake toppers con un bastoncino incollato dietro, o qualsiasi altro uso vi venga in mente.

Materiali
Tagliare dei cerchi con la nostra Big Shot, tanti quanti ragnetti volete fare. Io ho tagliato fino a 6 cartonicini tutti insieme. Per fare le zampe ho usato la lettera L della mia fustella Word Play, servono 8 zampe a ragno.

Per fare i ragni incollare 4 zampe ad ogni lato del cerchio, girare ed incollare gli occhietti. Per fare la ghirlanda, attaccare i ragni al cordone usando lo scotch.

Che ne pensate? Ci vediamo il prossimo martedƬ con un altro tutorial!

Hola amigos!

 Hoy haremos una sencilla guirnalda de araƱas para Halloween, usando dos troqueles bĆ”sicos como el de cĆ­rculos y el del alfabeto. Yo he usado estas araƱas para hacer una guirnalda, pero tambiĆ©n pueden servir como cake toppers pegĆ”ndoles un palito, o para decorar cualquier cosa que se nos ocurra.

Materiales:

Cortamos cƭrculos con nuestra Big Shot y el troquel de cƭrculos, tantos cƭrculos como araƱas queremos hacer. Yo he puesto hasta 6 cartulinas a la vez, para obtener 6 cƭrculos con un solo corte. Para hacer las patas he usado la letra L del troquel alfabƩtico, necesitamos 8 patas por araƱa.

 Para hacer las araƱas pegamos cuatro patas de cada lado del cĆ­rculo del lado de atrĆ”s, del lado de adelante pegamos los ojos. Para montar la guirnalda pegamos las araƱas al hilo con un trozo de cinta por el lado de atrĆ”s.

 QuĆ© os parece? Nos vemos el próximo martes con un nuevo tutorial!

Halloween








Hi there,

right now I am looking forward to the upcoming Halloween time.
This tradition is not very widespread in Germany, but in recent years it has been celebrated more and more.

For our neighbors' children, I have made small candy boxes. I have used the Sizzix Movers & Shapers XL The 'Bag with flap' and decorated the small boxes with the Sizzix Thinlits layering frames. Great small gifts and done so quickly by the Big Shot Plus :)






Do you like the Halloween time just as much as I do?

Wish you a lovely Weekend.

Halloween Bat Softie


Hi Everyone! This is Anna.

It's Friday which means it's Sizzix project on the UK blog!
With Halloween just around the corner, Sizzix come up trumps with plenty of items and ideas for you.
Today I have been playing with my felts, fabrics and two of the Sizzix dies. I thought I'd do a little bat for Halloween, but I didn't know how to create the wings. I' ve got an idea: use the tree shape Sizzix Bigz Die - Christmas Trees, 3-D (658754)!!!
These bats are surprisingly quick to make so I hope you’ll enjoy the project! :)

If you'd like to make one of these, I've put together some brief instructions here:

Items used:

Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit (658300) machine + dies
Sizzix Bigz Die - Christmas Trees, 3-D (658754)
Sizzix Bigz Die - Owl #2 (657694)

black or grey felt
white and pink felt scraps
scraps of fabric to decorate
black buttons
polyester stuffing
sewing machine & basic sewing supplies (scissors, thread, needle, etc.)
hot glue

cafe creativo - Anna Drai - sizzix big shot - owl bat halloween felt (5)

How to make:

1- Begin to cut out the pieces of your bat using Bigz Die - Owl #2 (657694). Cut out also two circles for eyes with die of Starter kit and the bat wings with Bigz Die - Christmas Trees, 3-D (658754) and cut out a little white star to make two teeth.
Make sure you cut two pieces for the bat's body and for the eyes and the wings, too.
2- Now it's time to sew! We'll begin with the eyes, sew the outline. Sew the buttons and the teeth.
3- Now it's time to sew our little bat together. Take a wing, trap it between the pieces for the front and the back, and pin it. Now do the same to other wing.
Sew around the edge of the bat, leaving a gap at the bottom.
4- Stuff the bat with fluff. Sew together the gap. Then add the heart.

And, there you have it! You are ready to celebrate Halloween without much hassle! Isn't this so cute? It is perfect as a gift for kids.
Thanks for stopping by today!  I am thrilled to be sharing this simple Halloween project :)

Flag_of_Italy Per le amiche italiane! :)
Ciao! Ecco un nuovo appuntamento con Anna.

Halloween è proprio dietro l'angolo e Sizzix vi offre un sacco di fustelle e di idee per questa magica festa. Così oggi ho deciso di affrontare questo tema giocando con feltro, stoffa e due fustelle Sizzix.
Avevo pensato di fare dei piccoli pipistrelli per i miei nipoti da regalare per Halloween, un po' come avevo fatto per i miei pulcini, ma non sapevo bene come creare le ali. Poi all'improvviso l'illuminazione! Ecco l'idea di utilizzare la forma dell'albero di Natale della fustella Sizzix Bigz Die - Christmas Trees, 3-D (658754)! Questi pipistrelli sono sorprendentemente veloci da fare quindi spero vi piacerĆ  il progetto :)
Se volete farne uno, qui di seguito trovate le brevi istruzioni e qui sopra anche le foto di alcuni passaggi.

Materiali:

Sizzix Big Shot Starter Kit (658300) machine + dies

feltro nero o grigio
ritagli di feltro bianco, fucsia
ritagli di stoffa per decorazioni
bottoni neri differenti
ovatta sintetica
macchina da cucire + necessario per cucito (filo, ago ecc)
colla a caldo

Procedimento:

1 - Iniziare a tagliare i pezzi del vostro pipistrello utilizzando la Bigz Die - Owl # 2. Tagliare anche due cerchi per gli occhi, con la fustella bigz dello Starter kit e tagliare le ali di pipistrello con Sizzix Bigz Die - Christmas Trees, 3-D (658754) e con la stessa fustella tagliare anche una piccola stella bianca per fare i dentini. Assicuratevi di tagliare due pezzi per il corpo del pipistrello e due per gli occhi e le ali.
2 - Ora ĆØ il momento di cucire! Inizieremo con gli occhi: cucire il contorno del cerchio bianco con filo in contrasto e poi cucire il cerchio interno (fucsia o giallo). Cucire sopra i bottoni. Tagliare dalla stellina bianca due punte, che saranno i denti. Aggiungere i denti con piccoli punti (o colla a caldo).
3 - Ora ĆØ il momento di finire di cucire il nostro piccolo pipistrello. Prendete un ala, inserirla tra i due pezzi (anteriore e posteriore) e spillare assieme. Fare lo stesso per altra ala. Cucire lungo il bordo del pipistrello, lasciando un'apertura in fondo per l'imbottitura.
4 - Imbottire il pipistrello con l'ovatta sintetica. Cucire l'apertura. Quindi aggiungere il cuore con colla a caldo.

Ecco fatto! Ora siete pronti per festeggiare Halloween! Non sono carini? Sono perfetti come regalo per i bambini!
Grazie per essere passati di qui! Sono stata felice di condividere questo semplice progetto per Halloween. Alla prossima!
