Spring Break with Sizzix Vintage Travel Dies

14 Apr

Hey everyone! It’s spring break and I am traveling the East Coast in my Vintage Camper (aka Scotty) spreading the word about my new Sizzix Collection Vintage Travel. As usual, my amazing and talented Inspiration Team is here to share their Spring Break projects featuring my new Vintage Travel collection. Now you can take a trip down inspiration road from the comfort of your couch or computer chair.

Lisa Hoel takes Vintage Travel to the next level with her inspired layout created with Vintage Travel Thinlits and mounted on vintage Bingo cards! This is a winning design if I’ve ever seen one! B-I-N-G-O!

Take a trip over to Lisa’s blog for more vintage travel goodness.

Anne Redfern was inspired by a real Train Case to create this stunning project using my new Train Case die. If you think this little lovely is covered in patterned paper think again. Anne used DecoArt Media products and a stencil to create this stunner.

Take a fast train to Anne’s blog for more DecoArt Media and Sizzix magic!

Pam Bray has a second project to share with you this month. This darling floral Tool Box is all decked out in DecoArt Media, Distress Ink and Stampendous stamps!

You’ll find all the “tools” you need to create this charming Tool Box project on Pam’s Blog.

Shelly Hickox is heating things up with Vintage Kitchen and DecoArt Media! How stinkin’ cool are these Faux Galvanized Metal canisters?

Check out Shelly’s Tutorial on how to create these Faux Galvanized Metal canisters with DecoArt Media. This creative technique is not to be missed!!

Happy trails!
