Welcome to the Sizzix Fresh Vintage blog hop this is the 9th hop of 12; every Tuesday and Thursday for 6 weeks, one of the 12 dies in Eileen Hull's collection has been or will be featured. I am thrilled that Eileen asked me to participate in showcasing her new Sizzix dies and can't wait to check out what everyone else has done with these dies.
To view the hop, you can click on the Fresh Vintage blinkie on the sidebar or immediately below. This will take you around to all of the designers on the hop OR you can see all the links on Eileen Hull's blog.
The die I was asked to showcase is the Scoreboard Suitcase.
I have created a cute little make up kit /attaché case using the Scoreboard Suitcase Die and stamps from The Stamps Of Life - branches4flowers & dictionary4me.
I began by die cutting one piece of the White Little Sizzles mat board. I then inked it all over, back, front and creases using Tsukineko's Rich Cocoa Memento Dye ink and Jumbo Sponge Dauber. I then stamped the dictionary4me image using Wheat VersaMagic just to add a subtle texture to the entire surface of the case. I then used Coffee Bean Brilliance to stamp the branch image from branches4flowers and adhered small Prima flowers to the image. I then embellished the flowers using self adhesive pearls in the centers. Creating a small "for you" tag as a final touch and using the same flower/branch technique was the finishing touch...
I know one very girly little four year old princess who is going to love carrying around this little attaché case!!! Enjoy!
Create something everyday!
