When I saw this new "Bigz Die" from Tim Holtz Alterations by Sizzix I knew I had to have it. Below you will see 17 reasons why. First, how about the card?
I stamped my all purpose, favorite background from Penny Black on the die & colored it with Copic markers. I added Glossy Accents to the wood and finished it off with an antique pin and button. The white trim on the card is from my doily stash. The sentiment is an SRM sticker.
Now you will see why I had to have this die. These were created for centerpieces on the tables at my daughters Bat Mitzvah. In total there were 17 dress forms. The front & the backs were "painted" so that makes 34 designs. To this day I can't believe that I did this with some of my daughters help.
We sold each one at the party and donated the money to a local shelter. Each image was designed from mostly logos, printed on a transparency then blown up on a projector.
Every one has some glitter on each side to add that shimmer. EACH one was drawn by hand by me. I used Sharpie markers to color the designs.
Here are a few favorites. This pattern was on one of my daughters Lily Pulitzer dress.
This idea was inspired from a picture hanging on the wall in the Betsey Johnson store.
This was designed from a Tory Burch shoe box. All of the blue is glitter. You should see how many colors of glitter I own!
Thanks for letting me share. Have a great week :) Hugs, Kathy
