Three dimensional art... with heart
The #PaperTrail Tour is a series of interactive teaching trips that I am taking in my 1976 Serro Scotty trailer spreading crafty love across the country. It is packed up with samples, supplies, inspiration, some vintage touches and, of course, lots of paper!
The first trip is finally here! I am excited, a little nervous and ready to get the show on the road! I am driving a Ford F-150- I call it Big Daddy. [Read more…]
So sorry it has been quiet on the blog but it has been a beehive of activity here at HQ getting ready for the big #PaperTrail Tour expedition this week!
The weekend was beautiful. So on Saturday, I spent the day working on my vintage camper. There had been some water damage and we protected the roof with two coats of sealer in the fall but it needed the final coat of protectant. On the can it says the temperature should be 60 degrees before attempting this. I had been waiting all winter for one nice day. [Read more…]
Wow, things are really hopping here! I am happy to announce something very exciting…
We have another creative team we want you to meet…
This team is going to inspire us with lots of ways to create with the block dies. I can hardly wait to see what they create. Head over to The Artists on the Block to meet the team! They will ROCK THE BLOCK!
Thanks for stopping by…
I’d like to welcome my first Guest Designer Pam Bray of Scrapbook Flair. Pam created this gorgeous Graphic 45 Mini Shopping Bag project using my Mini Shopping/Coupon Bag Scoreboards Sizzix Die and Graphic 45 papers.
Pam certainly has a “flair” for Graphic 45 infused 3-D Sizzix projects. Every inch of this lovely project is covered with pretty papers and trims. You won’t want to miss a single delectable detail so stop by Pam’s blog Scrapbook Flair for more photos and steps on how she created this gorgeous Mini Shopping Bag.
You can find the Mini Shopping Bag and other coordinating dies in the “From the Heart Collection” HERE.
If you have Art you would like to share be sure to stop by my new “Art with Heart Challenge” and link up. You don’t need to use my products or even create a new project just show off your “art with heart”!
Have a lovely day!
Eileen
PS I have a big Artist Trading Block announcement coming this Thursday March 2o, 2014…stay tuned!
I got such a nice comment on my blog regarding the Inspiration Team and a St. Patrick’s Day ATB I had created here. from Orla, a genuine Irish lassie. She says,
“What a talented group! I think my Sunday just got filled as I want to visit all the blogs. I should be making my St. Patrick’s Day cards!
Eileen – Hope to make it to Connecticut on the 27th – I’m from Ireland and now I want that Irish block – it’s so beautiful and tasteful – I refuse to engage in what I call the “paddywhackery” and always love finding lovely Irish “stuff” – safe travels.

Orla, the Irish block is yours! Hope you can come pick it up and I can meet you in person at the Great American Stamp Store! We’ll be doing a free Make and Take with my new Sizzix Cherished dies from 1:00 till 3:00 PM. Hope to see you there!

And I heard we may have a very special visitor while we are there… An amazing artist! Here are some hints- she teaches at a store I just mentioned, she LOVES stencils and is another sweet Irish girl (if I am not mistaken)… Can you guess who it could be? More surprises ahead!
Follow us on the #Papertrail to follow our adventures! We’ll be posting on my Facebook page so you will want to LIKE it!
Wishes for a Happy St. Patrick’s Day and lots of luck in the year to come!
