We "LOVE" Movers & Shapers Dies

This is another one of our January Big Shot Club projects - it was made using the heart-shaped magnetic Movers & Shapers die for the Big Shot.  The heart can be cut out from any position on the front of the card when used with the Movers & Shapers card die.  The beautiful letters are from the Jayne's Type Alphabet set, and then they were punched out with the coordinating heart punch.  The edge of the Early Espresso border was punched using the Pinking Hearts border punch.  It is accented with some of the Chantilly 1/2" crochet trim.

'Tis the Season

We'll be making this card for Big Shot Club this week when we focus on the Movers & Shapers dies for the Big Shot.  The Jolly Holiday Designer Series Paper, Old Olive, and Cherry Cobbler accents on the front were cut using the Tasteful Trim die.  The sentiment is from the Christmas Greeting stamp set.  The Cherry Cobbler ornament insert was rolled with the Christmas Chatter jumbo Stampin' Around wheel and then punched.   

Movers & Shapers Treat Box

Our Big Shot Club workshop is next week and we are demonstrating the Movers & Shapers dies.  We found this great project idea from Dawn Griffith while searching the internet, complete with a great video tutorial.  The Movers & Shapers dies are so versatile, as Dawn demonstrates with this pouch box.  The ornament is part of the Holiday Windows Magnetic Movers & Shapers set.  The striped DSP is from the Celebrations collection and the stamped images are from the Sweet Season set.  The images were punched out with the scallop circle and decorative label punches.  Inside the pouch box, there is a small cello bag holding some hard candies, and then the bag and flap are tied together with 3/8" Real Red taffeta ribbon. 

Wish Big with Movers and Shapers Dies

Today's card features the Sizzix Movers and Shapers die, which is very cool because it cuts and scores the card, and then depending upon which shape you choose, it cuts that out of the front of the card.  As you can see, we used the star, and the magnetic die cuts it slightly larger than our XL star punch.  We folded back a section of the front and secured it with some of the awesome NEW 1/8 inch taffeta ribbon.  The greeting is from the Word Play stamp set and it's layered on a scallop circle from the new 2 3/8 inch XL scallop circle punch, surrounded by small stars (sorry, that punch has been retired).  The color combination (Tempting Turquoise, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry) comes from the new Color Coach (see photo below), which has proven to be a fun new toy and forces us out of our color comfort zone.  Have a wonderful day and don't you forget to "Wish BIG!".
