More Eileen Hull Notebook Ideas

10 May

We are still celebrating the release of the newest Sizzix die and the team is here to show you more Eileen Hull Notebook ideas!

This Notebook die is so quick and easy to create you will be making them all. the. time! It is a ScoreBoards die, which means it is designed to cut and score thick material like matboard and chipboard so it will hold up to use. The die cuts in just one pass! Then add your elastic and book insert(s) and you have made a book! These books are easy to create assembly line style for a group event- wedding, party or other celebrations. Wouldn’t this make a great graduation gift for the new high-school or college graduate heading off to big new things?

More Eileen Hull Notebook Ideas from the Inspiration Team!

Anna-Karin Evaldsson created this awesomely artistic Watercolor Meadow Notebook inspired by a walk to find some rare flowers- blue anemones! Don’t they sound pretty? See her gorgeous book with an easy to follow tutorial on her blog.

Susie Bentz created not one, not two, but three Notebooks to nest in her Treasure Box (tutorial coming soon)! The books are out of this world- Susie used gorgeous Stamperia Blue Star papers and made foiled spines. Get the scoop on her blog!

Maggi Harding is up with a stunning set of Notebooks and Treasure Box to match all covered with Kaleidescope papers from Graphic 45 – just beautiful. See a cool hinge technique here on Maggi’s blog.

You can find the Notebook die here in my Etsy store.

Here is a Facebook Live show with a look at some binding options for the Notebook.

Eileen Hull Notebook Die Ideas

25 Apr

Today we are taking a look at more Eileen Hull Notebook Die Ideas! The Inspiration Team created these projects for Creativation and we can now share them.

Eileen Hull Sizzix Notebook Die Ideas

Pam Bray starts off with this adorable Baby Boy Frame using the Notebook to hold precious baby photos! She has decorated the frames with my Rolled Flower die- just gorgeous!

Julia Aston shares three quick and easy Notebooks today – used as an Address Book, a Photo Book and Travel book. Visit her blog to see how she made them!

Jenny Marples shows us how to create these gorgeous bound Notebooks here on her blog! See my Facebook Live where I attempted to show how to create this case binding (don’t judge- I’m still learning! :-))

And now for some sad news (for me anyway)… my Instagram account was hacked three weeks ago. I have been in mourning for the loss of the 3300 posts including photos of my family, Paper Trail trips in my vintage camper Scotty, classes, events, beautiful projects that people have created using my dies and also my almost 7600 followers that I had spent years growing. I would love if you would follow me on Instagram… click here. Thank you!

You can find the Notebook die here along with lots of others- new shipment arriving on Monday- stay tuned!

Eileen Hull Notebook Sneak Peeks

16 Apr

This month the Inspiration Team is sharing their Eileen Hull Notebook Sneak Peeks with us! This is a new Sizzix die that has just been released. If you like to create quick and easy books, the Notebook might just be the die for you!

Bigz L Notebook

The Notebook is a handy little size. It measures about 3 1/2″ x 5″ x 3/4″- the perfect for tucking in your bag for notes or lists! This is a ScoreBoards die specially designed to cut and score thick material like matboard and chipboard up to 1/16″. The spine is built in and has an adjustable width which will hold one or two signatures. Another option is to die cut from paper, fold in half to create a nice card base. What I like best about this die is that you can cut a book cover in one pass through the die cut machine! Boom!

Ready for some samples from the amazing Inspiration Team?

Sneak Peeks

Who doesn’t love coffee? Check out Pam Bray‘s adorable Whole Latte of Love Notebook featuring her very own Emerald Creek Craft Supplies Coffee Sentiments rubber stamp designs!

Pam was busy! She also created this beautiful Moments Notebook featuring some gorgeous papers from Stamperia and soft May Arts ribbons.

Any Game of Thrones fans out there? Take a look at the epic set of Notebooks from Karen Bearse! She created the books to go with the fantastic Dragon Treasure Box she shared with us last month… so cool!

Tonya Trantham has a cool Boho vibe that comes out in this fifties lady who is rocking this Just Fabulous Notebook! She used the Trinket Box frame to put her front and center, then added some Waffle texture and Blends inks for pretty color.

I am married to my best friend for 13 years and we have 4 beautiful, energetic, crazy-smart, and highly imaginative kids (I think they get it from their mama). They are my crazy and chaotic world that I can’t get enough of and wouldn’t trade for them for anything! They are what push me and drive me but also keep me grounded. My family is my center and what inspires most of my work and without their love and support, I would not be able to do what I do. Follow Mitsyana on her blog Up On Tippy Toes, Facebook and Instagram

I live at the seaside in beautiful North Wales, UK where my four beautiful rescue dogs keep me on my toes. We have beautiful beaches, woodland walks and the best ice cream on the planet, right here on our doorstep. I love all things mixed media, but you will also find me drawing and playing with watercolours. I love to upcycle items found in charity shops, and give them a new lease of life, there’s something very satisfying about it. I was so excited when Eileen invited me to be on her Inspiration Team at the start of last year, the dies are such clever designs and make amazing bases to add your own style on to, I am very proud to be part of this amazing team.

Anna-Karin Evaldsson

I am Anna-Karin Evaldsson and I started papercrafting in 2002. How lucky I am to have found the joy of making art from paper, dies, stamps, ink and paint.

Every project is a creative adventure and the possibilities are truly endless. You can find Anna-Karin on her blog, Layers of Ink, Instagram and YouTube.

Susie Bentz

I am a crafter at heart and have been creating all my life. I enjoy learning new techniques and playing with new products and then I love to share it all in the classes I teach locally and across the country. Over the years I have been privileged to work with a variety of manufacturers as a designer, educator and blogger. I have a very understanding husband and 3 adult children so I can almost always find time to play in my craft room every day. One of my favorite quotes is from Leo Buscaglia, “Your talent is God’s gift to you; what you do with it is your gift to God.” Follow Susie Bentz on her blog, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter.

Karen Bearse

My name is Karen Bearse and I am a lifelong crafter who currently likes getting as inky as possible! As a technique junkie there are few products I have not experimented with.

Thrilled to be back with the gals on the Inspiration Team! You can find me on my blog, Instagram and Facebook.

Tonya Trantham

I’m married, a mom and “T-Mommy” (grandmother) living in southeast Tennessee.

I’m a member of AFCI and design for several different manufacturers and have been published in various craft magazines and e-books. If I am not crafting I love to read and spend time at the beach with my husband with our toes in the sand.

Spring Things with Eileen Hull Inspiration Team

17 Mar

It was 70 degrees here this week in sunny Virginia and that means it’s time to see some Spring Things from the Eileen Hull Inspiration Team!

Spring Things with Eileen Hull Inspiration Team

Julia Aston sets a gorgeous table! Check out the adorable place cards/treat boxes she made for Easter here. The dies she combined to create this project were the Place Card and Stacking Drawer.

TIP

One of the good things about ScoreBoards dies is that you can mix and match the pieces to make something totally different than what the die was meant for. Don’t be limited by what the picture on the die looks like. Think outside the box and do some experimenting like Julia did above. So cute!

Lisa Hoel made an out-of-this-world Space Adventure in a Box complete with aliens! There are so many amazing techniques and unusual materials that she used to make it in addition to the Stacking Drawers and Treasure Box. Make sure to head over to her blog to see how she did it all.

Anna-Karin Evaldsson made this DIY Watercolor Birds Pen Holder using the Treasure Box and Stacking Drawers dies. I love her pretty watercolor birds! And do you put your pencils in tip up or tip down? Can you mention in the comments?

I hope that you enjoyed seeing all of these Spring Things with Eileen Hull Inspiration Team- I know I did, as always!

Thanks for stopping by- see you next week!
