Fall Garden Journal

1 Oct

Hello, Lisa Hoel here. Well I’m a day late and a dollar short but gosh golly I am taking over Eileen’s blog! I figure she is still jet lagged from her UK Paper Trails trip so she won’t notice me sneaking around over here. 😉 I created a fall garden journal using a ton of Eileen’s different dies and also her Molten Dimensions Embossing Powders.

How to Make it!

The Journal Die (biggest one) serves as the main cover. Then when you open it…

Inside I used the Notebook Die as well as the Giftcard Folder & Label 2 Die. (Save the seeds from your annuals!!)

You can see more photos and some tutorial tips over on my Garden Journal blog post. Check it out! Also, stay tuned for the BLOG HOP PARTY coming this Thursday on the 3rd! We are going to celebrate the official release of Eileen’s new Pocket Notebook die! The journal die family is growing, sniff sniff. It’s so sweet…

Thanks for taking a peek at my Fall Garden Journal!

Notebook Emboss Technique

26 Sep

Hello Eileen Fans!!! Supreme Mystic Minion Karen Bearse here to share a Notebook Emboss Technique! The Inspiration Team continues the blog takeover while Eileen is away in Ireland.

While the boss is away, the Minions will play!!!

A while back I did a blog post for Topflight stamps using Eileen’s Notebook die cut. Did you know that Topflight Stamps carries Eileen’s Embossing powder?

For a full tutorial you can see it on my blog here. It includes a quick & easy, yet visually eye catching technique that creates a batik like look. I also did a demo live on Eileens facebook page. There was a crazy Minion takeover so in case you missed it & if you follow Eileen you can see it here.

I hope you have a chance to tryout this Notebook Emboss Technique!! Have an inky day!!

Julia Aston’s Blog Takeover!

8 Sep

While Eileen’s traveling and crafting in Great Britain, some of us are taking over the blog to keep you inspired while she is away! So today, here’s Julia Aston‘s Blog Takeover!

I’m one of Eileen’s Inspiration Team members and I’m sharing a book I made for my grandnephew, Landon, to record books that he has read on the pages inside. I had made one for his sister, Mila, and to my surprise, he wanted one as well!

I made the book using Eileen’s Notebook Die

I die cut the pieces out of white chipboard. Then I smooshed the covers by rubbing Ranger Distress Twisted Cintrol, Gathered Twigs and Hickory Smoke onto my craft mat (one at a time). Then I spritzed with water and rubbed the covers onto the mat. I did this until I was happy with the coverage and colors.

I punched 2 holes at the top and bottom of the binding. I also cut holes in the center of pages I cut using Eileen’s Passport Die.

I threaded black elastic cord through the center of each signature (I made 2) and knotted them on the outside binding.

I looped a silver elastic tassel through the two black cords and used this as a closure for the book.

Supplies: Notebook Die, Passport Die, Eileen Hull/Sizzix, dinosaur stickers – Michaels, Stamps: Our Story – My Favorite Stamps (old set), Story of Me – Clear Art Stamps (old set)

I hope I have inspired you to make your own little notebook!

Julia

Note: I have never used WordPress – so I hope this post looks halfway decent!!

Summer Magic by Eileen Hull Inspiration Team!

1 Sep

Hi everyone- hope you are having a fantastic August! Here’s some summer magic by Eileen Hull Inspiration Team to keep you thinking and creating.

Books, a Wreath and cool Gift Pockets

Pam Bray never runs out of ways to decorate books! Today she’s sharing this adorable Best Friends Scholastic Wrapped Journal using vintage-y Authentique papers!

Don’t you love this gorgeous Seashell Journal by Tonya Trantham? She used the Notebook die, Journaling Words and Clearsnap inks to create the cover of this pretty book.

Lisa Hoel created a Beachy Wreath using Blends inks and Emerald Creek embossing powders – I love the soft colors and textures! Totally stealing this idea to make one for our beach house!

Jenny Marples made this stunning mixed media Floral Collage Gift Folder using the Gift Card Folder and her magical inking skills.

Susie Bentz created this gorgeous stenciled New Home Gift Card Folder and matching card base! She always has the perfect stamps to decorate. These are from the Project Bin!

Check out my Facebook Live video from last week with a follow up idea for using the Gift Card Folder with paper.
