Three dimensional art... with heart

“My Favorite Journal” with Eileen Hull’s Creative Team

Welcome to September! There is a lot going on this month. Our overall Creative Team theme is “My Favorite Journal”. In addition, we are having some collaborations with other companies. Our UK designers are having their turn using exciting Grafix Arts speciality plastic films and sheets. USA designers are testing out Bearly Art glue. Let’s take a look at our first projects…

Sarah Lizzie created this bold and colorful inspirational journal using Eileen’s Field Notes & Specimen Card Die plus Grafix Dura-Lar Prints sheets. Cool! More details here.
 


Pam Bray made a pretty shabby chic card using Eileen’s Stitched Hearts, Skinny Mini Elements Dies and her Lacy Leaves Embossing Folder (plus some classic flower and leaf die sets). Details here.


The precision tip on the Bearly Art glue made it easy to cleanly glue all those little bits!


News from Eileen!

Hi all! I had a whole list of things to do today, but my daughter and Thomas (6 weeks old) stopped by and we wound up going to Goodwill and catching up. And there was some baby tending going on because apparently Thomas does not share our love for thrift shops (yet) :-). I found a big wooden tray that I am going to paint and letter on for my Mom to do her puzzles on. When it’s dinner time, she can just move the tray instead of putting the puzzle away. I found another old jewelry box. Whever the kids come over, they immediately head for the jewelry boxes because they know that’s where the dress-up jewelry is. 

What are your thoughts on thrifting? I’m not sure if that’s something you want to see here – can you let me know?


I am excited to say that TODAY on our livestream, we are having a Guest Designer, friend and my trade show roommate – Rebekah Meier! Rebekah has just released some new rice papers with Joggles and they are absolutely stunning! Today we will be hearing more about them and she and I will share some inspiration on the many things you can make with these papers.


Fan Club Fun!!


OFFICIAL LAUNCH!!!

We are doing an ATC SWAP! The swap will begin TODAY 🙂 Please read the info below and sign up today to be part of it. Share your art with a fellow creator.

An artist trading card (ATC) is a tiny piece of original art. It measures strictly 2.5 by 3.5 inches, the exact same size as a standard baseball or trading card. Artists make these small cards to trade or give away for free, rather than to sell.

These are the guidelines:

  • Size: Must be 2.5 x 3.5 inches to fit standard card collector sheets and sleeves. Each card should have an Eileen Hull product as a focus.
  • Back Details: Please include on the back of the card: your name, date, event, number in series
  • Mediums: Creators use any material they like, including paint, collage, drawing, markers, fabric, and mixed media.
  • Shipping: this ATC can be sent in a standard envelope with regular postage. As long as it weighs less than an ounce, the cost to ship is the price of an .82 stamp. For reasons of economy and time, the swap will pair US with US and international with international.
  • Timeline: Registration opens September 1st and goes till September 10th. On September 12th, you will receive the name of your swap buddy. You will have until September 29th to mail out your swap.
  • In October, we will share our swaps in the Eileen Hull Fan Club – stay tuned for dates!

Sign up for the swap here!

January Card Bonanza – More Greeting Card Inspiration

The Team this month are kicking off the year with a Card Bonanza! We always need a card or two through the year so check out our Creative Team’s inspiration through the month for birthday and other occasion cards.

This is such a great idea from Jennie Atkinson! She took a single card design and made it in four different versions. Check out her video below:


Maggi Harding has been busy too and has three different cool cards to share. You can get a closer look in her post!  (Lacy Leaves embossing folder, Tunnel Arches, Windowsill Vase & Flowers, Field Notes & Specimen Card)

Cool tri-fold design!

News from Eileen Hull…

Hi and Happy New Year to all! It has been a busy month already! We returned from our trip to Texas to visit our son and his family – so nice to catch up, see where they live and be part of their lives for a few days. We got back Saturday and then Monday I went in for my D & C. Thankfully it went well – today I feel fine and am back to normal activities 🙂 

The next two months have lots going on. I just want you all to know I am allowing myself to take a break and I will not be doing two lives a week. Next week I will be up visiting Mom. At the end of January, I will be in Puerto Rico and then leaving on a cruise till February 11. Please sign up for notifications on YouTube  (click the bell) so that you will be notified when I do go live, follow me on Facebook and Instagram or watch here in the newsletter.

Join me and fellow YouTubers on the Cara Brandon Refresh Collaboration! We will be taking a look at our spaces as the New Year begins. Each artist will be sharing a look at their studio – clearing out and making it more efficient to work in. Each week follows a different theme; join us and follow along at home! Episodes are recorded so you can binge watch and clean along with us 🙂 Follow along and share your progress using: #craftspacerefresh2026


My biggest problem area is my desk because it has my computer where I film but also need space to work so it always gets cluttered up with supplies and just stuff! I will be sharing the area where I work and how it is laid out to make it workable and more efficient for me. 

The ETSY SHOP is open if you need anything 🙂 Debbie is on the job!

There are some exciting changes going on which will take a little time to put in place – please be patient. I think you are going to love them ❤️

Workshop with Eileen:

Tired of the snow? Come on down and join us in Puerto Rico!

Eileen is back and More Sizzix Fall inspiration…

We have more fall inspiration from the Creative Team and Eileen is back from her trip and ready to get back to craftiness! Here’s what she has to report:

Hi all – I am back from an amazing anniversary cruise to Greece and Italy! We went with good friends and it was so nice to travel together and share some unique adventures including a volcanic eruption, an Italian wedding and a torturous hike up a cliff with 150 donkeys.

In Salerno, we found a cool leather store called Bosso – this is a pic of me and Alberto, the owner. We had a nice chat and I bought a purse for me and wallet for Hayward.


I have a little cold but the laundry is done and I am ready to get back in my studio and create! 

Join me for a quick trip recap, a look at some of the souvenirs I brought back and a fun idea for creating a Lacy Leaves Banner using the new Lacy Leaves A-5 embossing folder and Tunnel Arches.


On Thursday, I want to re-create my Santorini memories – such a beautiful place. The houses were white and everything else seemed to be blue – the sky, ocean, Greek flag, pottery, art and even clothing – so fresh and crisp! I decided to make a shadowbox using my Shadowbox #2, Shadowbox Elements and Tunnel Arches dies. I’m going to make one for each of the couples we traveled with and give for Christmas. 


Fall Inspiration – Projects from the Creative Team!

This month her Creative Team is using Eileen’s new Home Sweet Home Collection from Sizzix to make projects with a Fall/Halloween themed twist!

Maggi Harding created this cool Halloween tag decoration. She used the Tunnel Arches and Windowsill Vase & Flowers die sets plus the Lacy Leaves embossing folder. Check out more details in her post!


Jennie Atkinson made this beautiful autumn mini album using the Tunnel Arches set for the base and also the Windowsill Vase & Flowers set. I spy some Lacy Leaves peeking through the cover too! Watch the video below for a look at the lovely insides and a tutorial.


On the road again…

Attention California Friends!

I am headed out on October 25-26 to teach at the gorgeous Frank Garcia Studio in Upland, CA (located about an hour west of LA). I’ll be teaching two classes. I would love to see you and Frank’s store is definitely worth a trip – I think it is the most beautiful store I have ever been in. (REGISTER HERE)

Time for More of Eileen’s New Home Sweet Home Sizzix Collection

Eileen Hull is back from her UK teaching tour. Welcome home Eileen! We are celebrating the release of her new Sizzix Home Sweet Home collection and the inspiration continues.

A word from Eileen…

I am back from the UK after an amazing two weeks of teaching, driving, eating, sightseeing, and enjoying this beautiful country from London to Edinburgh! Thankfully our luggage was waiting for us at baggage claim at each end and that made me very happy. 😀 Seeing everyone in class was so rewarding – I loved meeting up in person. 🩵 I was also happy to have a quick catchup with most of the international team members Jenny Marples and Sharon Curtis at the Moat House… 


I met Sarah Lizzie and Elizabeth Robinson at The Architect in Cheshire. Jennie Atkinson – catch you next time. (Make sure you are following ALL the team members!)


Tuesday I will do a recap of the trip – I’ll also be opening some of the presents I was given. 🩵 If you have been following the UK Roadshow, you may have seen the Release Party which was cut short due to insufficient data and the need to see Stonehenge. We will be sharing the second half of the Release party next week so stay tuned for more amazing inspiration from the team.
