Looking Back at Favorite Projects of 2021

15 Dec

This month the Team designers are looking back at favorite projects from 2021 and sharing their picks with us! Eileen Hull’s versatile products really let our creativity shine! Let’s see what inspiration is in store for us today…

Tonya Trantham picked her top three favorites and I know you will agree! One was this beautiful shabby chic pickup made using the Vintage Truck Die. I love how she used patterned paper and flowers to decorate it! See the details and Tonya’s other projects in her blog post.

Tonya also has a bonus tutorial for us – a delightful card made using Eileen’s 3-D Sweater Embossing Folder and the Mitten Die. It’s quick to make but looks like you spent a lot of time on it. Check out Tonya’s tutorial here.

Continuing the “How do I choose only three projects?” trend, Elizabeth Robinson pulled it off and presents us with three absolutely lovely makes. Two are journals and one is special Vintage Truck & Camper trailer combo. Don’t miss her write up and the inspiration in her blog post!

Welcome to November Eileen Hull Fans! This month we are crafting for the seasons which covers fall, winter and all the holidays therein! As always, the Teams are bursting with creativity and ready to fill you with Eileen Hull inspiration for your own seasonal makes. Let’s take a look!

First we have a gorgeous winter creation from Karen Bearse. This magical winter scene is set into a base made using Eileen’s Vintage Truck Box Die with Wreath & Snowflake Die Set snowflake accents. The tiny lights add an extra special touch. Look on Karen’s blog for all the details!

If you want more inspiration on making trucks you are in luck! If you haven’t heard, Eileen is having a Tailgate Party. Details from Eileen as follows:

Don’t miss the Tailgate Party!

This event will stream to EHD Facebook page and YouTube channel on Wednesday, November 10 at 9:00 Pac/12:00 ET/5:00 UK. In attendance will be 3 retailers and 6 Sizzix employees from US and UK and Eileen. Therefore, you will see 10 people creating at one time because they will each be creating their version of the Vintage Truck on the Streamyard platform. You, the viewer, will be invited to craft along and there will be prizes! After the event, post a truck and use the hashtag #eileenstailgateparty; you will be entered to win the grand prize. It is going to be amazing!

For our next crafty creation we have a ‘feeling fall-ish’ birthday card made by Lisa Hoel. She used various flower/leaf dies and embossed the bottom flower layer with Eileen’s fab 3-D Sweater Embossing Folder! Eileen’s Snail Mail Everyday Sentiments stamp set makes an appearance as well. See it all in Lisa’s blog post.

Pam Bray created a lovely home decor piece featuring Eileen’s Heart Mandala and 3-D Camper Dies. She is maintaining that in many parts of the world, this season is in fact rather summery feeling.

Christmas Dies for All Seasons?

19 Aug

You might be under the impression that Eileen Hull’s Chapter 3 Sizzix dies are only for the holiday season. Well, you would be wrong! These “Christmas dies” are for all seasons! All month long the Inspiration Team designers have been sharing fun ways to use these dies in projects that work all year long. Versatility is the name of the game! Let’s see what inspiration they have in store for us this week…

The Vintage Truck Box Die is proving to be a maker favorite! Lisa Hoel made a companion piece to her Camper mini tag album ensemble from Chapter 2. The Truck Box holds another tag album perfectly! Find the details (and lots of photos of the album) on her blog.

Are CAS cards your jam? Then take some lessons from designer Elizabeth Robinson and feast your eyes on this lovely example. She used the Wreath & Snowflake Thinlits Set to create the delicate foliage surrounding her sentiment and then topped it off with dainty butterflies. Pay her blog a visit for the details!

Sizzix Chapter 3 Tutorial Time with the Inspiration Team!

8 Jul

Did you catch the Release Party & Blog Hop last week for Eileen Hull’s brand new Sizzix Chapter 3 dies? We had a fun time (watch the replay) and the Blog Hop was packed full of inspiring makes from the Teams! Eileen has three new dies in her Chapter 3 release:

Here’s what Eileen has to say about her new dies:
“Celebrate every day with these versatile Chapter 3 Sizzix dies! Although themed as a holiday collection, just think of how many ways you can decorate these dies to celebrate every season of the year, simply by changing out the paper and colors! The Truck and Camper pair are a match made in heaven. Set it on the mantel, (paired with the Camper die!), hang on the tree, fill with treats or create your holiday cards with them. The Ornament Box may be used several ways – use the circle shapes separately as ornaments or build up the sides and add treats, snacks and gifts. Decorate the box with elements from the Thinlits Wreath & Snowflake dies or use those elements in your journals, tags, pages and pockets! You will want them all!”

The rest of the month the designers will be sharing tutorials for their amazing projects made with the new Sizzix Chapter 3 dies. Let’s take a look at our first batch…

Sizzix Chapter 3 Project Tutorials full steam ahead!

Maggi Harding has a video tutorial for you on her blog showcasing how to make her beautiful vintage flower truck. I really love her use of patterned paper and how she filled the truck with flowers! Don’t miss her blog post with more photos and the video.

Summer Fun and an Eileen Hull Craft Along

16 Jun

Hello Eileen Hull fans! June is all about projects that show summer fun plus a chance to have some creative fun with a Craft Along Eileen did on her Facebook page. Eileen’s Sizzix dies are tops for versatility and will make your own projects shine. Let’s take a look at what the Inspiration Team has for us this week. More info about the Craft Along follows!

Designer Jenny Marples created a summer fun card that will make you want to hit the road for camping adventures! She used the 3-D Camper Die (yes, 3-D can also mean 2-D!) plus Flower and Leaf dies to compose this refreshing scene. I love how she used gel plate prints for the card parts – it adds a lovely visual texture and interest to the card. You can find more info on Jenny’s blog post!

Inspired by the sea, Lisa Hoel used the Folio Journal Die to make a stationery folder and filled it with matching cards and envelopes. This would make a great gift and could easily be adapted to any theme! More photos and info can be found on Lisa’s blog so head on over to take a peek.

Summer Fun Craft Along with Eileen…

Recently, Eileen did a Facebook Live Craft Along that was a lot of fun! She showed us how to make an interactive 4” x 6” folder from one sheet of 12” x 12” paper that fits in the Sizzix Pocket Notebook. I know I might have a few extra sheets of 12 x 12 scrapbook paper laying around (ha ha ha). You can still join in with the replay to learn how to make one as well!

Isn’t that fun? You can see a little video of it in action here. If you’d like to gather all your supplies so you can craft along with Eileen, here is what you will need:

4-5 coordinating 12″ x 12″ double sided papers – save one full sheet of paper for the base and use the rest for the pieces. Paper pads work great for this! It fits in the Pocket Notebook Die.

Waterfall & Tags die
10 Waterfall pieces (the one with the score line)
4 Waterfall mat rectangle pieces
2 scalloped border pieces
6 small tags
2 medium tags
2 large tags
10 tag reinforcements

Folio Page, Pocket and Flowers die
7 round pockets (without tabs) from the Folio Page, Pocket and Flowers die from random designs
4″ x 6″ coordinating paper scrap for middle section
Inks – if you want to distress edges, you can do that before we start
Glue
Seam Binding to tie up
Craft knife and self healing mat
Scoreboard and bone folder

Summertime Fun, Crafting Style with Sizzix

9 Jun

For the month of June, the theme here on the blog is Summer Adventures! The Teams have been creatively cooking up summertime fun, crafting style using Eileen Hull’s Sizzix dies to great effect! Eileen’s dies are the perfect blank canvas to showcase your creativity and are so versatile. Let’s take a look at what the Inspiration Team has for us this week…

Julia Aston created a darling kids’ grab and go activity kit using the Folio Journal. So creative Julia! The Folio opens up to reveal treats and fun things to keep a kiddo busy with on the spot entertainment. The cheerful circus theme compliments the idea perfectly. See all the details in Julia’s blog post.

To me summer also means time in the garden and lots of flowers! Susie Bentz made a delightful card with summer colors and flower embellishments made with the Folio Page, Pocket & Flowers Die Set. Who wouldn’t love to get this in the mail? A tutorial and more photos await your viewing on Susie’s blog.

This year, summertime means travel time!

Maggi Harding is getting ready to embark on a motorhome adventure out west and made a travel journal to document the trip. She used the Journal XL Die and gorgeous Graphic 45 papers for its construction. (Did I mention I love those papers??) More photos and a video are on Maggi’s blog so don’t miss that!

One of the fun things about making a junk/travel journal is that you can also make all sorts of fun bits to go inside of it. Tonya Trantham created this absolutely fabulous project using a jumbo paperclip and Eileen’s 3-D Camper Trailer Die. This would be great to use in a journal, as a bookmark or to clip on just about anything! Tonya has a tutorial on her blog so head on over to check it out.
