Eileen’s Adventures at Namta & Finishing Forgotten Projects

8 Apr

For our April theme, the Creative Team designers are either finishing forgotten projects that have been sitting for a time (aka UnFinished Objects), or revisiting a project and putting a new spin on it with different dies. This should be fun! (We’d love to see you share your UFO projects in the Fan Club too.)

Maggi Harding’s UFOs are lost somewhere in the darkest depths of her craft room so she decided to do a rerun of a favorite project. She made this little sticky note holder using Eileen’s Notepad Die and Floral Pocket & Paperclips Thinlits Set. You can see more details about this handy make in her post.

Check out this quick tutorial:


Jennie Atkinson also has a “rerun” project to share. In her tutorial below, you can find out how to make a 4″ x 6″ mini book out of a single sheet of 12″ x 12″ scrapbook paper, scraps and of course Eileen’s versatile dies.


Eileen Hull happenings:

Eileen Hull is still at the Namta Art Materials Association show in Seattle, Washington. If you’ve been keeping an eye on her social media, you’ve seen that she’s been a busy lady! From demoing at the Sizzix booth to walking the show floor, we’ve gotten some good peeks at the action. Eileen will be back on Thursday for a live and maybe we’ll get some fun details.

Spring project inspiration from the Creative Team

This month the Creative Team designers are being inspired by SPRING! It’s time to create projects that celebrate the new season – from spring home decor to cards and albums. Any of Eileen’s past dies and products are fair game so let’s see what projects we have to share this week…

Maggi Harding created a scrapbook page layout highlighting a recent trip she made to Antarctica. She used the Floral Pocket & Paperclips and Alphanumeric Thinlits Die Sets plus the Plate & Pattern Layered Stencil Set. So cool! 😉


Tonya Trantham dressed up a pre-made notepad with Eileen’s dies and embossing folders. This is a great gift idea (Mother’s Day is coming!) Get a closer look in her post. Dies used: Floral Pocket & Paperclips, Bookmark, Pockets & Toppers, and the Floral Damask Embossing Folder.


Spring of course celebrates all things green and growing! Elizabeth Robinson made this lovely nature inspired junk journal using the Mini Album Die. Each page inside is a treat so head on over to her post to see it all.

Pressing On – Getting Organized in 2025

14 Jan

Hi friends, Eileen here. I don’t know about you but I am finally serious about getting my studio cleaned up and organized – it feels so good to finally start! Thanks to all who have been posting their BEFORE and AFTER pics of your creative spaces for our Tidy Up 2025 Challenge in the Fan Club! Even just picking out a tiny space to work on is so satisfying, you may find yourself tackling larger areas – who knows!


It is so comforting to know that I are not alone and that others are struggling with the same issues as me! As you may recall, I started shoveling cleaning out the studio in order to be ready for my video on January 26. It all started with my friend Cara Brandon‘s invitation to join her and Dana K. White’s Declutter & Get Organized collaboration. Click HERE to see the calendar and links to all of the other crafters that are part of this event – so many good tips and ideas! Love seeing how everyone approaches organizing in a different way – but the important thing is for you to make your space work for you.

If you have been watching my lives, I have done several posts showing how to create a Bespoke (custom) journal. I need to use mine! So we will be finishing it up today on the live…


I am using the Journal die – you can find it HERE in my Etsy shop if you don’t have it already. Of course, if you don’t have that one, use one you have! Here are the links to this week’s videos – just click on the graphic and it will take you right to the event. In case you missed them, here are links to: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4 …


On Thursday, it’s time for our monthly Realeather Crafting episode. We will be creating Cord Wraps for all those electronic charger cords and I’ll be sharing how to use the Snap Setter Kit – a very handy tool to have! Get your leather out and let’s make some Valentine gifts for family and friends!

Projects from the Inspiration Team…

This month the project theme for the Inspiration Team is “Friendship”. All of Eileen’s products are fair game for the designers to use. Take a moment to sort through your Eileen Hull stash and see what inspires you! Don’t let it distract you from your organizing though. (wink wink)

First up is Maggi Harding with a beautiful Valentine’s card! She used various Thinlits Die Sets (Floral Pocket & Paperclips, Tiled Alphanumeric and others) plus the gorgeous Floral Damask Embossing Folder. See the details on her blog and in the video.


Pam Bray created another cheerful card that is perfect to send to a friend! She used the Damask Embossing Folder, Fan Favorite Stamps, Plate & Pattern Stencil Set and the Bookmark, Pockets & Toppers Die Set. Check it out on her blog!


We have a final card for the week created by Sarah Lizzie. It’s a beautiful friendship card for a milestone birthday. She used the Tiled Alphanumeric and Wreath & Snowflake Die Sets to highlight the special day.


Classes with Eileen!

On January 31 – February 26, Eileen will be traveling to Florida to teach two full days of classes at Crafting at the Nest! If you live anywhere nearby, I hope you can join us!

Eileen Hull’s October Sizzix Release Recap!

31 Oct

Did you catch the October Sizzix Release Party last week? There were so many projects to share and inspire you. The designers really outdid themselves! Check out the round up of their work below and keep an eye out for even more! You will not want to miss out on Eileen’s latest release from Sizzix.

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

This Eileen Hull Sizzix release was designed with journaling in mind! If you have never journaled before, this collection of seven products is a great place to start! In it, you will find everything that you need to get going. If you have been journaling for a while, you will want to add these items to your stash – the pieces are very versatile and will coordinate with many of the other dies you may already have.

The base die is the 5” x 5” x 1” Mini-Album, a Scoreboard die specially designed to cut and score thick material AND it cuts in one pass- so easy and quick! You can also use this die to cut the pages that go inside. There are three accessory Thinlits dies: Floral Pocket and Paperclips, Bookmark, Pockets and Toppers and Charms that cut pockets, bookmarks, embellishments, paper clips, charms and extras that may be used to decorate the pages of the book.

There is a stamp set called Fan Favorites with 61 words and phrases to use inside the book, on cards, and tags! Plate and Pattern is a four layer stencil- each layer may be used separately or all together. Create page backgrounds, use on your gel plate, outline and stitch the design on fabric or to trace shapes and fill in with watercolor. The Floral Damask multi-level 3D embossing folder creates a beautiful background useful for journal pages, cards and tags!

The new collection:
