Sizzix Captures Vintage Charm with “French Farmhouse” Arts and Crafts Collection
Lake Forest, CA (PRWEB) January 21, 2014 -- Vintage enthusiasts can enjoy new antique designs offered in the Sizzix® library of arts and crafts products for the Big Shot™ die cutting machine.
Eleven antique designs are offered in the French Farmhouse die cutting and embossing collection by Sizzix designer Jen Long. Her timeless designs include a delightful assortment of Bigz™ dies and Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folders to fashion chic party favors, cards, keepsake gifts and more.
“Pairing the concept of French home décor with French flair and style captured an aesthetic balance of rusty and chic,” Long said. “I wanted crafters to be able to effortlessly create weatherworn and vintage projects that still captured the dynamic of fresh French trends that are so popular right now.”
Eight steel-rule Bigz and Bigz XL dies present a quiet country escape with fancy chairs, armoire treat bag covers and weathervanes that can be cut from cardstock, chipboard, fabric, leather and vinyl.
Sophisticated textures embellish cardstock, metallic foil, paper or vellum with three sets of Textured Impressions Embossing Folders along with four bonus Embossing Folders that accompany select Bigz dies.
“Consumers will find the French Farmhouse collection lends itself to creating paper craft and mixed media projects with a classic French twist,” said Denzil Quick, Director of Product Development for Sizzix.
The French Farmhouse collection is now available in stores around the country, including local craft boutiques and major retail craft chains. For more information, visit Sizzix.com.
