Top Projects of 2024 & Christmas Gift Giving!

12 Dec

This month the Inspiration Team designers are picking their three top projects of 2024 and sharing those favorites with all you Eileen fans. So much inspiration! Check out the ones from this week:

Jenny Marples chose a lovely selection of her favorite projects to share! Jenny always makes the most stunning journals and her stitching projects are to die for.

Designer Sarah Lizzie has a mix of cards, decor and practical for her favorites. She made a treat holder for her puppy using the Stacking Drawer Scoreboards Die (so cute). Her bloom decor piece is beautiful too!

Jennie Atkinson is the shabby chic queen! You can get a closer look at her classic beauties in her blog post. I love how she incorporates flowers into her makes.

From Eileen, “Hi friends – I’m back home after a family Thanksgiving in CT and a cruise to the Bahamas. How did I get so lucky? It is nice to be home though and getting the house cozy and ready for winter. I hope you all had a good Thanksgiving and are busy creating. This is right about when the holiday mojo hits me – better late than never!

Today I have a huge box of samples to share from Stacey’s team at Scrapbooking Made Simple – I decided to wait and open it with you so I will be surprised along with you 🙂

I am going to be sharing some ideas for the Stacking Drawer die today – it’s great for gifting small treasures, a special piece of chocolate, handmade jewelry or tiny memories.”

AND IT’S ON SALE!!!

“I am offering the Stacking Drawer die at the crazy price of $30 – that’s $20 off the normal price! Click HERE to order it if you don’t already have it. This die works with the Treasure Box Die – you can stack three of the drawers inside it. Great for storage, organizing and gifting!

I hope you can join me. If not you can always catch the replay…”

Here is a Lisa Hoel flash back project that could be handy for this time of year. Using Eileen’s Stacking Drawer Scoreboards Die, you can easily make festive little gift boxes for small things like jewelry. Pretty patterned paper and a bow will elevate your gift giving!

All throughout the month of November the Inspiration Team designers shared their 2025 Journal projects featuring a variety of Eileen Hull Dies and themes. Eileen’s versatile dies allow you to create such a wide variety of styles and project type! Check out the Round Up video below:

Here’s a closer look at the two journals shared last week. The first is from Lisa Hoel and the second was created by Jenny Marples. Both used the Mini Album Die as the journal base.

Adding to this week’s inspiration is a flash back project using Eileen’s Tiled Alphanumeric Thinlits Die. A pack of these quick and easy Thank You cards (from Maggi Harding) would make a great gift to give.

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!
