So, I wanted to share 2 projects with you...both of which were made with my Sizzix Big Shot for Stampin' Up! The first is a name banner I made several months ago for a friend who had her first girl after 4 boys (she's gonna be a tough little princess :). I cut the letter frames from coasters with dsp already attached (no sanding!!). I would have done the same for the letters, but I don't have those dies...yet. A kind sister demo on SCS traded me the chipboard letters for some stamped image sheets...SU! demos are so nice!
The second project is a card we made at our March Stamp-a-Stack. I ran the Close to Cocoa colored Candy Lane designer series paper through the Big Shot using my SU! exclusive Backgrounds 1 Texturz Plates. Then I ran my sanding block over it lightly to distress the raised design, leaving the white paper core exposed for contrast. I just love the way that looks.
TIP: Use a darker designer paper with a tone-on-tone effect to make the distressing more prominent.
