Hiya! Thanks for stopping by today .... Kraft has always been an evergreen element in my creation. Love how versatile and muted this color scheme is. Especially when it has scripted fonts on it. Cool typography on Kraft. On my Sizzix project this week [HERE], I used 7 Gypsies patter papers, ephemera papers and decorated my Traveler's Notebook.

Layered Tattered Blooms

It's amazing how different textures work so well with one another.

Just like us mankind. So different, yet at times, we can bring out the very best  and complement each other. 

On my project, i used several materials to built these beautiful neutral coloured blooms. With the help of Sizzix Big Shot Plus and flower die cut, I layered the flower sizes. Making sure to alternate between different materials. The pale pink looks simply gorgeous against the contrasted backdrop of black and white!

Alphabet Word Play!

I have an obscene number of Thickers (alphabet stickers) and sadly, many of them had loose its sickness in my humid climate. Also, they really do take up a lot of space in my otherwise limited craft room. Space is a premium where I live and I've tried to cut down in owning supplies. 

Hence, this particular set of Alphabet Bigz XL Dies from Sizzix is a great for crafters like me! I just need to die-cut according to what alphabets I need at the moment. No need to own a full pack of alphabet stickers and see them go to waste. 

While catching up with my Project Life mission, I used these alphabets and created monogram background on several pockets. Here's a close up on one of the pockets. Do check out Sizzix blog for more details! HERE.

Hi y'all,

Here's a card which I'd created for Sizzix. Very fortunate to be blogging for Sizzix this coming year and I look forward to share some Sizzix projects every Wednesday.

Cardstocks are an essential supply for me and I simply love how textures can be evidently shown on these colourful and heavyweight paper surface. For this card, I opted for a muted and mellow grey toned cardstock.

I ran my cardstock  between Sizzix Woodgrain texture plate ( #660408) through my Sizzix BigShot. The impressions of the woodgrain was imprinted so beautifully on the cardstock. The lines were crisp and clean.

Besides running the cardstock through the texture plate, I did the same to a piece of white vellum. Similarly, the result was the same. It is beautiful how light passes through this sheer piece of light paper! I layered the vellum on top of the cardstock. Making it seemingly seamless. 

To complete the card, I included white eyelets at the bottom of the card .

Supplies:

1. Sizzix Textured Impressions Embossing Folder - Woodgrain #3.

2.  Sizzix Framelits Die Set 10PK - Rectangles #2

3. Pattern papers: My Mind's Eye
