"Always Smile" Canvas by Gerry van Gent



Happy Sunday Sizzix friends!
Today I would love to share with you a canvas layout
where I used Sizzix dies to decorate the embellishments
and the canvas itself.

Always Smile
657900 Sizzix Big Shot Machine
658252 Sizzix Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die Cobblestones
657735 Sizzix Sizzlits Large Die Baroque Ornament
658524 Sizzix Bigz Die Classique

I used three different dies on the canvas but
none of them was used as a whole die.
Each one was cut into pieces and "spread" over the canvas.

A piece of the Cobblestones die was even used to
decorate the bulb embellishment for a special effect.

The Baroque Ornament was cut into three pieces:
* Two ornaments were used as "swirls" for the flowers.
657735 "Baroque Ornament"
** And a piece of the ornament was used to decorate the photo.

The Classique swirl was also used in pieces to decorate
all flowers on the canvas.

Other Products I used:
Prima Marketing - papers, flowers, embellishments

Have a creative Sunday with Sizzix products!

A {Happy Birthday} Card by Gerry


Hello Sizzix Friends!
It's Sunday and I`m again here to share with you 
a new project I created with a few Sizzix Dies.

This is a card a created for a girl who is totally
into princesses and fairytales. She loves wearing crowns
and I thought that would be the perfect addition to my present.

657710 Sizzix Bigz Die - Crown #2
658951 Sizzix Thinlits Die - Ornate Hanging Sign
657735 Sizzix Sizzlits Baroque Ornament
657524 Sizzix Sizzlits - Card Phrase #3
657523 Sizzix Sizzlits - Card Phrase #2


I die-cut the crown twice - once from pattern paper and once from cardstock to make it more stable.
To make the card more fairy I added ornate elements from both dies - Ornate Hanging Sign and 
Baroque Ornament. Then I placed the crown among the ornament die-cuts.

The butterfly looks pretty "full" and that's because I cut it a few times and adhered them altogether.
To be more precise I cut the big butterfly 4 times and the small one 3 times.

OTHER PRODUCTS I USED:
Prima Marketing "Shabby Chic" paper collection

Hallo Sizzix vrienden!
Het is zondag en ik wil graag een nieuw project met jullie delen
waarin ik Sizzix Dies heb gebruikt.

Deze kaart heb ik voor een meisje gemaakt dat houdt van prinsesjes en
sprookjes. Ze is dol op kroontjes en ik vond dat deze kaart prachtig bij mijn cadeautje paste.

*  *  *
I stanste de kroon tweemaal, 1 keer met patroonpapier en een keer met cardstock om het meer stabiel te maken. Om de kaart meer "betoverd"  te maken heb ik gekrulde elementen van beide stansen toegevoegd - Ornate Hanging Sign en Baroque Ornament.
Vervolgens heb ik de kroon tussen de gestanste ornamenten geplaatst.

De vlinder ziet er "vol" uit en dat is omdat ik het een aantal keer heb gestanst en ze aan elkaar heb vastgeplakt. Om precies te zijn, ik heb de grote vlinder 4x gestanst en de kleine 3 maal.

Thank you for visiting us today!
Have a great Sunday!
