Three dimensional art... with heart

Eileen is on the Road & Greeting Card Inspiration

The Team this month is kicking off the year with a Card Bonanza! We always need a card or two through the year so check out our Creative Team’s greeting card inspiration through the month for birthday and other occasion cards.

Jenny Marples created this lovely floral card by cutting flowers out of fabric using the Painterly Blooms & Background die set. She then cut them apart and made mix & match layered flowers to form the wreath. Awesome! Check out her tutorial reel on Instagram.


Tonya Trantham used the Mini Album die to cut the card base for this sweet little card. She layered on various paper scraps and die cuts to complete it. Lovely! Find all the details here.


News from Eileen Hull…

Hi all, and I hope your 2026 is off to a good start! As I mentioned last week, life for the next two months has lots going on and I am allowing myself to take a break. I will not be doing two scheduled lives a week – however I do still plan on going live when my schedule allows, so please make sure to subscribe to my channels on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. Click notifications so you will be notified when I do go live! 

I leave today for upstate NY to visit Mom while my sister and BIL take a break with week in the islands. I checked the weather today and looks like a big storm is coming this weekend, so hopefully the drive home is not too crazy! 

Have you seen the Monks Walk For Peace on Instagram? It is so inspiring! They are due to finish their 2300 mile walk in DC on February 11. I really wanted to see them since (we live 25 miles outside of DC) but we won’t be home in time 🙁 They are definitely worth watching… 

Get organized!

Join me and fellow YouTubers on the Cara Brandon Refresh Collaboration! We will be taking a look at our spaces as the New Year begins. Each artist will be sharing a look at their studio – clearing out and making it more efficient to work in. Each week follows a different theme; join us and follow along at home! Episodes are recorded so you can binge watch and clean along with us 🙂 Follow along and share your progress using: #craftspacerefresh2026


PROGRESS? I am still working on my studio – it’s a never ending job… I received a Michael’s gift card from my son for Christmas and I was happy to find some useful organizing carts and containers; plus there were some great deals to be had!


The ETSY SHOP is openI The Easy Cut Adhesive is back in stock along with the 1/2″ RedLiner tape and 1/4″ RedLiner tape. Debbie will be filling orders while I am away – thanks Debbie!

There are some exciting changes going on which will take a little time to put in place – please be patient. I think you are going to love them.

News from Eileen Hull…

Hi and Happy New Year to all! It has been a busy month already! We returned from our trip to Texas to visit our son and his family – so nice to catch up, see where they live and be part of their lives for a few days. We got back Saturday and then Monday I went in for my D & C. Thankfully it went well – today I feel fine and am back to normal activities 🙂 

The next two months have lots going on. I just want you all to know I am allowing myself to take a break and I will not be doing two lives a week. Next week I will be up visiting Mom.

My biggest problem area is my desk because it has my computer where I film but also need space to work so it always gets cluttered up with supplies and just stuff! I will be sharing the area where I work and how it is laid out to make it workable and more efficient for me. 

The ETSY SHOP is open if you need anything 🙂 Debbie is on the job!

Jennie Atkinson created a lovely trio of cards using scraps from a favorite pad of patterned paper. She also utilized the Card Caddy Die to cut the cards so they have a fancy edge. Eileen’s dimensional dies can do 2-D too! Find all the details in Jennie’s blog post.
