Sizzix Surfacez Cork Roll + Eileen Hull Dies

Sizzix has a magical material in their Surfacez line, Cork Roll! It can be die cut, stamped, embossed and used in all sorts of interesting ways. As a collaboration, Sizzix sent some to several of the designers on Eileen’s Teams for us to put it through its paces. Get comfy and enjoy this recap of all the inspiration…

Save Your Trip Memories Using Eileen Hull’s Dies

How do you like to save your trip memories? Eileen Hull’s dies and stamps are perfect for documenting your vacations and travels! Her various journal dies are great for making little albums for a start. Of course, you can go beyond albums and make home decor pieces too and Eileen’s dies are also well suited for that. Let’s see what the Inspiration Team has for us this week!

Elizabeth Robinson created a summer treats journal using the Folio Journal Die. I think Elizabeth and I have similar tastes when it comes to summer treats. (Hello ice cream.) You’ll have to go visit her blog to see what is inside!
