Big Shot + Fabric = Awesome!
BJ on Jan 25th 2010
Check out these fantastic ideas! I have used my Big Shot and a little fabric – and don't you just love the results! Quilters – you are missing out ona fantastic machine if you don't have one!

The pennant was my first project. I used the pennant die along with the scallop circle and sans serif alphabet. This is all machine stitched – and went together in just a couple of hours! Check out the scallops stitched on the ribbon at the top of the pennant – these are on the pennant die. This pennant will also serve double duty as the back side says "spring". . . . .you'll see that side later!

Well, I didn't stop with the pennant. I LOVE the scallop square die! This table runner was made in just a snippet of time of a standard quilt project! i hope you'll stop by and check out this very cool idea! Besides – it's much cuter in person!

And every girls needs another purse – right? Don't you love this one? I do! And not just for the hearts or because I made it. . . . it's just stinkin' cute! Another simple and easy project to put together! Crafting made easy with the Big Shot! Did I tell you that the best time to buy your BIg Shot is right now during Sale-a-Bration? With your purchase, you'll receive a free SAB product of your choice and when you add at least one die to your order – you'll get 2!
Club Projects

Check it out! I am LOVIN’ the BIG Shot! This card was one of the cards made at one of my clubs this week. The theme was using chipboard. The great flower accent was made using the Big Shot, chipboard available from Stampin’ Up! and the Parisian Summer Designer Series paper. The solid pink behind the flower happens to be sticky back felt! One of the fabulous features of the BIG shot is that it is sooo versatile! When you think that the Big shot can cut over 50 materials – there’s versatility right there! And that’s only one of the reasons I have called this the most versatile die cut machine on the market!
To make the flower accent, simply glue your designer series paper on a piece of chipboard, place on the flower found on Stampin’ Up!’s exclusive Baskets and Blooms die and Big shot it! I found paper side down works best. The felt flower was cut on another Stampin’ Up! exclusive die – the Pennant Die. So easy and cute!
So, would you like to know everything else on the card? The base is Apricot Appeal, all of the Designer Series Paper is from Parisian Summer (fabulous colors in this paper!), Pumpkin Pie, Scallop Edge Punch, Rhinestone Brad and the Fundamental Phrases stamp set.
In using the scallop edge punch you always punch off a tiny strip – so, I put it on the card! The pumpkin pie strip at the very bottom was the "waste" from cutting the pumpkin pie scallop edge under the card! Yea!
The other projects at this club were just as fun – but, this was the best. . . if you’re not a member of one of my clubs, give me a call and see how you can join in!
