OH My... Stampin' Up and Sizzix Partnered!

Sizzix? you are wondering what is this? It is a personal Die Cut machine. A few years ago, Sizzix was all the rage. Since then, many other machines have come onto the market. I am sooooo excited!. For all of you who waited on buying the "ahem" cuttle mug...(sp I know) this is EVEN better!





  • larger area, able to handle larger paper

  • all dies and folders are compatible (different company's)
  • create project for both scrapbooking and cardmaking

The Big Shot works with ALL competitive dies, and the steel rule dies can cut through an impressive list of 50 different materials, including fabric, foil, and chipboard.
It's important to note that there are different types of dies.



  • Originals, Bigz, and Bigz XL dies. These steel ruled dies cut through virtually any material and multiple sheets of card stock and Designer Series paper.

  • Sizzlets dies. These dies are small and detailed, often creating scored or perforated details. These dies cut through thin materials, and multiple sheets are not recommended.

Big Shot instruction sheet is available here. Looks pretty easy to me!

Scalloped edges

As promised, I created a card using the pieces I created from the tutorial. It also allowed me to use the new "Bali Breeze" paper and my new " Embrace Life" stamp set. As you can see, I used the scalloped pieces along each side of the paper and it gives it a great off set from the main part of the card. I stamped using "Tempting Turquoise" as I did not yet get the In Colors "Soft Sky" ink yet. I think it goes well don't you? Thanks for looking!

Love Matters - just in time for Valentines!

I loved this set from the moment I saw it. I had visions with these colours so of course I had to try them out. It is a great set and very versatile for both card making and scrapbooking alike. I have a challenge for you. If you own this set, have made a card or scrap page using it, send me an email: Challenge with the link or the sample and I will "link" to it from my blog, or post it for all to see. I love to see how others also use this set.
