What’s New in 2020 with Eileen Hull!

1 Jan

Well, it’s a new decade for one thing! Welcome to 2020! For another thing, Eileen Hull has NEW DIES that will debut at Creativation in a few weeks! Ch. 2 is top secret but we can share Ch. 1 projects with you now. The Inspiration Team is hard at work creating wonderful, fabulous samples using Eileen’s new die designs.

Prepare to have your socks knocked off!

The first die we’re going to look at is the Scoreboards Display Stand. This is a highly versatile die that can fold flat for transport and mailing. The possibilities are endless and wait until you see all the ideas the Team is coming up with for its use! First let’s look at a few makes from Jenny Marples.

Tired of propping up your phone on the nearest coffee mug when you want to watch a video? The Display Stand can remedy that! Look at this fabulous phone stand Jenny created with the die:

Jenny also used the same Display Stand die to create a holder for a beautiful necklace. Can you imagine giving jewelry as a gift with a stand like this? It’s double the wow factor. Check out Jenny’s blog post featuring both of these amazing projects.

Karen Bearse has created a wonderful snow themed stand glistening with winter magic. Imagine propping up a favorite season appropriate photograph on it or Christmas cards. Such fun! Be sure to visit Karen’s blog post and find out all her tips and tricks for constructing it.

The second of Eileen Hull’s Ch. 1 release dies is the Gift Box with Scallop Edges. (But really, does it only have to be a gift box? I think not!) Again, it is another versatile die with many uses! Julia Aston created a darling party decor kit for a child’s birthday. Love the circus theme!! Check out her blog post to see how she did it and where she found the cute graphics.
