The Sizzix Challenge

Hello and thanks for stopping by my Blog. I wanted to share a 12x12 layout that I created for the Sizzix Challenge. 

I loved the inspirational photo we were to use for our project. I was originally going to make a 3D item (which, if you know me, I am crazy passionate about) but the photo led me to a layout featuring it instead.

Here is the list of Sizzix dies that I used:

Rustic Lantern

Mini Lantern (movers and shapers)

Frameworks Courtyard

Bird branch

Tattered Flower Garland (Sizzlits)

Confetti (Sizzlits)

For texture and interest, I used the following Sizzix embossing folders:

Waves and Bubbles

Winter Berries

Courtyard

Springtime Background

The paper selection was important as well, pulling colors from the photo:

BoBunny (base, flowers and stems)

Bazzil (darker green)

Carta Bella "So Noted" (pale pink)

Websters Pages "Quote Me"

Fancy Pants "old flame" woodgrain 

Clearly for Art by Wendy Vecchi

Inks and Stuff:

Distress ink - Walnut Stain, Peeled Paint, Picked Raspberry, Mowed Lawn

Liquid Pearls - Hydrangea and Key Lime

Wire

And Start each day with a grateful heart, but don't forget to Shine On.  Enjoy...
