Let the Great Outdoors Inspire You

9 Sep

This month we are taking a look at the great outdoors and how it can inspire our art! So far we’ve seen some really great projects from the Inspiration Team and we have some more for you today. Eileen Hull’s dies are perfectly versatile “blank canvases” that you can adapt to any theme. Journals galore, gift containers, organizers, treat boxes – if you can imagine it, one of Eileen’s Sizzix dies can most likely help you to make it!

Designer Maggi Harding took a trip to Alaska and had some wonderful wildlife viewing experiences! She created this fabulous Pocket Notebook to remember her trip. She also used one of Eileen’s classic dies, the Mailable Frame to make the front piece for her album. Be sure to check out her blog post to see more photos, a video flip through and the tutorial.

Take a deep breath of fresh air…

Susie Bentz has two Tiny Books to share in her post and it looks like she had a lot of mixed media fun while making them! I love the techniques Susie used to create these mini journals and I think you will too, so head on over to her blog and she how she achieved the looks…

For Mitsyana Wright the outdoors means the beach, wind and waves. She created a Journal decked out with waves that makes you want to go lay on the warm sand and relax. Love those ocean colors! She has a complete tutorial on her blog that will fill you in on all her tips and tricks.

Lisa Hoel has a throw back project from last September to share. She made a fall garden journal using the XL Journal for the cover and a variety of Eileen’s other dies too. It has spots to save seeds and take garden notes. You’ll find more photos and a tutorial on Lisa’s blog so don’t miss it.
