2021 Christmas Tags - Sizzix

Look at Windston here!!!  Have you tried the Colorized dies from Sizzix?  Oh my this is a favorite.  He's just darling.  This was part of my 2021 Christmas Tag video on Youtube.  If you need links to any of the tags you've seen, please check out the description box on that video.

This is another Sizzix die called Character.  He looks like a Reindeer to me.  And very cute I might add.

It's fun creating more than one tag in different color combinations.   As you can see, I had fun dressing him up and giving him some personality!

Here's another great Colorize die from Sizzix.  Don't be intimidated by all the pieces.  These dies create beautiful images!

He's fun and absolutely festive!

The layers on the Colorize dies just brings the to life!

Thank you so much for stopping by today to view these tags.  There's so many pictures because I wanted to share the different combinations that were created.

And of course, there's always a Pink one...lol  Until next time friends, Happy Crafting

 

Gorgeous girl tag

Don't you just love "Gorjuss Girls"!!!  I am so smitten by these darling girls.  When I was a young girl, I loved playing with paper dolls....maybe that's why I enjoying paper piecing these cuties.  The other day I went to the store to see if I could purchase some paper dolls.  They are not to be found.  I wanted to introduce my little Granddaughter to them.  I am going to have to get creative with my dies and make her some!!!

This is the glassine bag that was altered to hold the beautiful tag in.  But opsy!!!!  I see that something must have happened when I was editing this photo.  Those black lines through the flowers are not supposed to be there.  hahaha  

See....I told you....this one shows the tag and the bag together and the roses are perfectly fine.  Oh my goodness, you never know when something is going to go wrong.  Thank you so much for stopping by today and viewing this project.  Hope you have a wonderful day.  Until next time....Happy Crafting!!!

Bakery Box House Project

 Hi everyone.  Here is a close up of the Bakery that was created for the Loaded Envelopes Galore and More Facebook swap you can find here:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/LoadedEnvelopeOriginal/.  For the month of April I am the Guest Designer for the swap.  I created this project for us to swap.  Isn't it fun!!!

 This box is large enough to use your window dies that you might have in your stash.  If you don't have any, I show you in the tutorial how to create the door, steps, roof, and windows.  You only need a score board and a paper cutter.  It's simple.  You decorate as you wish!

 This is the backside of the Bakery.  It's decorated with pearls and swirls as I was going for a Shabby Chic look for this house.

 There are so much themes you can do with this house.  I am currently working on a "Coffee Shop" as I intend to fill it with Keurig (K Cups) as a gift presentation.  See, isn't that fun!!!  You could do a Flower Shop and include flower seeds inside!!!

The letters for the Bakery Sign were done on a Circuit machine.  The rolled Roses are a Marianne Creatables die.  Thank you so much for stopping by to view my project.  I have included the tutorial below.  I would love to see your houses.  I will be posting pictures of the embellishments that are included in these houses soon.  So check back.  Until next time,  Happy Crafting!!!

Spellbinders Grand Arch 3D Die meets Gorjuss Girl

 Greetings friends and crafters.  For today, I would like to share a Mother's Day card that was created with a Spellbinders Grand Arch 3D die.  I am in love with these dies.  I only have this one, but I can assure you that the other two are on my wish list!  Don't you just love all the layers?  It's also very easy to assemble and folds flat to mail.  It's awesome!

The image inside is Gorjuss Girl #24 Heartfelt.  She's so sweet and perfect for a Mother's Day Card.  She was colored with Copic markers.  The Roses are created with a Sizzix die called:  3D flower No.2.  They were distressed with Victorian Velvet ink with a pearl center.  The leaves are a Nellie Snellen die and the flourish is Cheery Lynn.  The scalloped edge on top is a Martha Stewart punch.  

You can see all the layers here.  There are a total of 6 to create this card.  The 3D effect is stunning. Thank you so much for stopping by today.  I have a couple more projects to share for Mother's day.  Happy Mother's day to you.  Until next time, Happy Crafting.
