Spring Project Inspiration from Eileen Hull’s Creative Team

6 Mar

Spring project inspiration time! A new month means a new theme for the Creative Team so for March they are being inspired by SPRING! It’s time to create projects that celebrate the new season almost upon us. Any of Eileen’s past dies and products are fair game so let’s see what projects we have to share this week…

Sarah Lizzie used felt and Eileen’s Painterly Blooms & Background Die Set to create these darling egg ornaments for an Easter tree. Find the how-to and more photos of these cheerful makes on her blog.


Designer Pam Bray is getting ready for Easter as well with this duo of cute candy containers. Using the 3D Teacup & Spoon and 3D Basket Dies for the containers, she decked them out with pretty pastels and flowers (Painterly Blooms & Background Die Set). Get a closer look on her blog!

When school started, one of our assignments was to cover our books to protect them from wear and tear throughout the year. I have a some ideas for updating that concept and creating “slipcovers” for my special books. Hope you can join me today to explore this!

Eileen Hull March Sizzix Die Release Wrap Up!

28 Mar

It’s time for the March die release wrap up! Did you catch Eileen’s March 1st live for a look at her newest die collection? It was packed full of inspiring projects! For the month of March, we’ve been taking a closer look at the project tutorials from the Release Party.

Here is what Eileen has to say about her new collection:

I’m so happy to introduce this brand new collection of mine from Sizzix! As always, I try to create designs that may be used together but also stand alone. There are four pieces in this set.

The Storage Box is an XL ScoreBoard die measuring 4” square, the largest square box yet! This box is constructed with a removable top and may be used in many ways, such as organizing desk and office supplies, as a gift box, storing craft supplies and packaging for baked treats.

The Mini Book is one of my favorites because you can create a book using this die in an evening, and use up your scraps in the process. This book measures 3 3/4” x 2 1/4” and comes with a strap/handle and tiny label for the book cover. It also makes a great bag topper if you fold it in the middle and also will hold a business card. Die cut it from felt and stitch up a tiny wallet!

There is a new Thinlits called Faux Postage – the full panel is designed to fit on a 5” x 7” card and creates a fun postage stamp effect. You can also cut (or tear) each stamp apart and use the individual pieces as a miniature work of art! These dies coordinate with similar dies: Snail Mail (A-2 card size) and Mini Slimline (6” x 3”).

The Lace 3D Embossing Folder is so amazing! It’s a new LARGE size measuring 8 1/2” x 5 3/4”. It works great on bigger journal covers, card backgrounds and on home decor pieces. This is created from vintage lace that I have collected and there are so many ways I want to use this!


Onward to the project inspiration!

Lisa Hoel created a Storage Box that perfectly fits four Mini Books – each one with a seasonal theme! Book covers were embossed with the A5 size 3-D Lace Embossing Folder (so much detail!!) Find many more photos and some how-to in her blog post.

Designer Pam Bray created a darling little junk journal using the Mini Book Die. It’s a great way to utilize all the fun bits from a patterned paper collection! Take a closer look at all the details and inside pages on Pam’s blog.

Sue Eldred used the Faux Postage Die Set to create these beautiful spring quilt cards. What a wonderful way to use that die and delve into your patterned paper stash (we know you have one!) Details on Sue’s blog!

Spring Forward with Fantastic Folios and More

17 Mar


Spring forward with fantastic Folios! Spring is almost here and the flowers outside aren’t the only things blooming. The creative minds of the Inspiration Team are as well with Eileen Hull’s newest Sizzix Chapter 1 Dies to work with – the ScoreBoards Folio Journal Die, coordinating Folio Page, Pockets and Flower Thinlits set and the Mandala Thinlits die. Let’s see what they’ve been up to…

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is Ch-1-die-lineup-graphic-1024x359.jpg

Take one look at Jenny Marples’ latest project and you are sure to say, “Wow!” You saw the beginnings of this epic Folio last month and Jenny is back with a look at the finished cover and part one of the inside pages. Her collage layering and use of textures and colors is fab to the extreme! Finish reading this post and then get over to her blog stat to see it all!

Designer Anna-Karin also worked her mixed media magic for her latest Folio Journal! Yummy texture and colors combine with the bling of foil to create a super cool journal. The floral element cut using the Folio Page, Pockets and Flower die set adds the perfect touch to the cover. Don’t miss Anna-Karin’s tutorial and give her techniques a try yourself.

Elizabeth Robinson created a delightfully stitchy Folio completely out of fabric scraps. I love it! Flowers, embroidery, batik fabrics – yes please Elizabeth, show us more. =) It is a cheerful and whimsical art journal to be sure and she shows you how to put one together yourself in her blog post.

Let’s not forget Easter is nearly here…

Tonya Trantham certainly hasn’t. She cleverly combined two of Eileen’s dies – the pocket from the Folio Page die set and the Teacup Die to create this darling bunny basket Easter decoration. I love the festive touches and I believe I spy some chocolate tucked away in the basket (well done Tonya). Find out how to make some of your own in Tonya’s blog post. They would be great little gifts!
