Sizzix Love Eileen Hull Style

12 Feb

Do we love Eileen’s new Sizzix Dies? Yes we do! I hope you have been checking out the posts this month (and the January posts) because the Inspiration Team has really been going to town with fabulous projects. We have four new ones to show you today!

Did you see Susie Bentz’s cute gnome Display Stand project? Well, the gnomes are back just in time for Valentine’s Day! Susie is ready for it with this darling gift box. Instead of paper, she used vinyl and we love it – Gnome matter what! Check out Susie’s blog post to find out how to make a delightful little gnome gift box for yourself.

You Can Get Organized in Style Using Eileen’s New Sizzix Dies

5 Feb

Hello and welcome to February! This week, the Inspiration Team will show some clever projects made with Eileen Hull’s new Sizzix Dies that can help you get organized in style.

First up we have Maggi Harding’s beautiful recipe card holder she made using the new Sizzix Display Stand Die. She solved her problem of recipe cards getting messed up in the kitchen in a most delightful way. Check out her blog post for all the details!

Projects like these make great gifts too!

Karen Bearse put a clever twist on this card organizer by thinking “out of the box”. Using the Gift Box with Scallop Edges Die, she arranged the die cut pieces in a new way (plus added a dollop of yummy mixed media goodness)! Head to her blog to read the tutorial.

Finally, we have a pretty photo display stand that Pam Bray created with the new Display Stand Die combined with the Trinket Box Die – a favorite die from two years ago. Do you have photo prints stuck in a drawer or scattered around your desk, possibly being used as bookmarks? (maybe…) Display them properly with Pam’s photo frame! She has a great tutorial on her blog.

Eileen Hull’s Sizzix Dies & Creativation 2020 Wrap Up

24 Jan

Creativation 2020 was full of inspiration, camaraderie, make and takes, new products, classes, lots of walking and of course lots of crafty goodness! Eileen did several make and takes in the Sizzix booth showcasing her new dies from Sizzix! If you are a member of the Eileen Hull Facebook Fan Club, I hope you caught some of the lives from the show. After getting home, she had a day to recoup and then she jetted off to…

…Germany for Creativeworld, a huge trade show for the craft and DIY markets. Be sure to have notifications checked for Eileen Hull Designs on Facebook and follow her on Instagram because she will be sharing all the exciting things happening at the show. The show sounds amazing and the excitement just keeps going!

The Inspiration Team has more to share!

Eileen’s Inspiration Team has closer looks at the samples that they created for the shows. First up is Julia Aston with a darling magnetic board she made using the new Display Stand Die.

What a fun project for kids or to brighten any desk! Check out her blog post for a tutorial so you can make your own.

Susie Bentz also used the Display Stand Die to create this utterly practical but very cute dry erase sign to use at craft shows! The panel is cut from vinyl so the dry erase marker messages will wipe right off. Visit her blog to see all the details.

The second of Eileen’s new Chapter 1 Dies is the Gift Box with Scallop Edges. Our next two designers have created very different but equally fabulous projects using this die.

Anna-Karin Evaldsson used it to make a beautiful forest themed photo block. I love the green colors. It makes me feel peaceful just to sit and look at it. Visit her blog to see the tutorial for how this came together.
