Sizzix Colorized Tim Holtz Thinlit Dies-Bow Tied All Occasion Cards

Welcome back and Nancy, here.  I am showcasing the new Christmas 2022 new arrival of the beautiful Sizzix Colorized Tim Holtz Thinlit Dies-Bow Tied to used this time for my birthday and baby cards.  Previously, I showcased Christmas cards using the same die set.  Although this die set arrived with the Sizzix Christmas die sets,  I was able to make this die set work perfectly for a baby and happy birthday card.  Today I’m going to share a few sneaky tricks that you might be able to use the next time you have the chance to use this wonderful die set.

This die set comes with 11 dies and on the back of each die, it is etched with a number of a Set from #1 to 3 to use each set with the color cardstock if you wish.  The best way to begin using the Sizzix Colorize die set is to watch the Sizzix tutorial by clicking HERE.  


I had a lot of fun getting out my folder of supplies baby showers cards with stickers and papers.  I used three shades of pink cardstock to create this bow and glued the bow onto a 
4 1/2" square patterned paper and cut off the edges before layering it onto the solid color cardstock base frames.  The darkest shade of pink was used for Set #1 for the background of the bow with the lightest pink shade, Set #3,  for the top of the bow.  Also, you can sponge on layers of Distress inks before cutting out the colors to get different shades of pink or other colors.

I used  Graphic 45 Time to Celebrate collection paper and added a metal clock to the center of the bow.  I fussy cut a butterfly from the Graphic 45 collection as well as the Happy Birthday banner and glued it onto the card.  I made the bow with three shades of beige and used a couple shades of beige with sponging on Distress Vintage Photo ink with heavier sponging for Set #1 to less applied ink for Set #3 for the lighter shade of beige for the vintage appearance.

Previously, I did a blog for The Rubber Buggy for creating these Christmas cards and if interested, the website is available for you to see the instructions and list of supplies.

I highly recommend getting the new Sizzix Chrome Precision Base Plate for Intricate Thinlits even though your old dies works fairly well for cutting thin dies.  The Chrome Precision Base Plate leaves no impressions behind from previous cuts, so it always looks new even after a year of daily use.

I used Beacon 3-n-1 Advanced glue to assemble the bows and cards.  The Rubber Buggy carries all of the colors of My Color Cardstock along with other brand names that are available now for you to create your cards along with other supplies 

So get crafting and have a fabulous  day and thanks for visiting.

 The Rubber Buggy has the crafting supplies for your next project. So have fun crafting this weekend with these products.   My cards and projects are always posted on Saturday.  Keep watching and thank you so much for those wonderful comments as well as suggestions. 

Enjoy and Happy Crafting!
