Snowflake rosette and borders dies!

So, those Christmas cards... well, if you are organized it would be a would idea to start them now. Here you have an idea using one of my latest dies for Sizzix, Thinlits Die Set 9PK - Winter Borders & Rosette - 659978.


The set consist of 9 dies, three borders, a rosette die, a snowflake, a flower and three circles. To make the rosette you will need two lengths of it, so just die cut it twice.


You can make it larger or smaller, but I like my rosette to have eight points, so I trim two on both. Then I glue the ends.


I die cut two circles to secure it in place. I used cool glue gun, a big blop of glue in the centre. 


I pushed the center to the glue. Then I used the smaller circle on top and pushed down to secure it in place.


One of the borders included in the set is the one I call Candy Cane as creates the diagonal lines of the sweet. This one fits nicely on a A6 card creating the apertures.


Perfect for a red card with a white insert. The second border has dots and stars and this one mesures up 6 inches tall and it does cut all four borders.


Quickly, I assembled this Christmas card with all the elements.
Good luck with your Christmas cards!

Two projects by Gerry van Gent


Hello Sizzix Friends!
Gerry's here today sharing with you two projects.
My first project is a card where I mixed a few dies and
I also used one of the Sizzix stamps.

The phrase was first stamped on some leftover pattern paper 
and then the label die (658932) was used to die cut it.
As an addition to the stamped phrase I added three die-cut flowers.

My second project is a layout.
I used here only one single die which was (in my opinion) 
the perfect decoration for my photo.
