Sizzix: Keychain | Owl

Hello everyone! I couldn't help but do another project with the Sizzix Owl Bigz die! This owl has me really hooked. This time, I used felt instead of paper and made myself a little owl keychain.

How cute is this! Just cut the pieces required to assemble the owl. For the body, I used blind stitching and inserted some foam for the body. For the rest of the elements, you can choose to stitch or simply add glue to assemble.

Viola! A quick project and now my clutch has a matching owl keychain to go along!

Hope this inspires you to use different materials for the bigz die and you can achieve different purposes!

Sizzix: Card | Hoot

Hello! This week I have been blessed with Sizzix UK dies and I can't wait to get my hands working on them! First thing I had to work with was the Sizzix UK bigz die - owl.

This sweet little owl has taken my heart away! The assembly of this owl was simple, all it required was the correct tools and it is done in a matter of seconds.

Yes, this set of Sizzix accessory is my best friend when it comes to paper crafting. The right tools can really help save tons of time in the assembly and glueing process.

I decided to go with a sliding panel card, so the owl will pop up when the receiver slides the card panel. This owl does deserve a good limelight with a pop up mechanism!

This card also stores flat for mailing so I don't have to worry that the elements get flattened during mailing. Working on this card took a short time, and sometimes card making is easier when you have the right elements right in front of you.

MWL DT: Album | Dream & Explore

Hi everyone! How has March been for you? I am feeling refreshed after a week long holiday with my family, and now catching up with my work. Before I went on this holiday, I thought of making an album for my parents as we rarely get to go on a trip together.

I wanted to house as many photos as it could in one album, and I was right to think of that - we took over 1500 photos in this trip! Gosh, thank God we are living in a digital era. Films would have been expensive!

After some experimentation, I made some adjustments so a pivot swivel card could be used in an album format. What do I mean? Well, I will be getting to that soon.

Here is the album I have made as Made With Love DT - a paradise and travel themed album using Kaisercraft Havana Nights Collection. This collection is gorgeous! Not only does it have the bright elements, it also has the geometrics to match up!

Now let's flip the pages! I am always intrigued with albums with some moveable elements, and this pivot swivel mechanism was the fun thing to make! As the pages open, it unfolds a series of pop up page in a swivel motion.

There you go! Each page consists of this special swivel element, and I bet my parents will not only be thrilled to see the photos but also play around with the album!

Here is another page with the same construction. I left enough space for some journalling, and still debating if I should add more photos!
