May has been a blooming month full of crafty paper flower creations from the Inspiration Team. Hopefully the spring season has been uplifting and inspiring for you! We are wrapping up the month with another dose of botanical bounty.
First up we have a beautiful Trinket Box created by Maggi Harding. It makes me want to go to a garden party! I love the floral patterned paper and the die cut flowers decorating the box. Maggi shows how to put this all together on her blog so take a look.
Elizabeth Ronbinson was inspired by the Stitched Felt Wallet project Eileen taught in the recent Beach House Art Retreat and kept on stitching! She created a cute felt heart tag with flowers for a pencil case she has. Eileen’s dies cute felt easily and they are a perfect adornment for all sorts of projects. Follow Elizabeth’s lead and see more in her blog post.
Next we have a colorfully coordinated Notebook from Pam Bray to feast our eyes upon. Wouldn’t this make a great gift for a friend or loved one? The pink and black color scheme is quite striking. Check out Pam’s blog post to find out her quick and easy hack for making the insides of this notebook.
Jenny Marples has two projects to share with us! The first is floral Notebook with coordinating interior. Jenny shows us in a tutorial how to alter the standard Notebook die cut for an alternate way of creating the cover. She also tells you how to created a matching tassel using one of Eileen’s tools.
Like Elizabeth Robinson, Jenny also participated in the Beach House Art Retreat and got stitchy with her felt wallet:
I love how those colors pop on the grey felt. Eileen showed us some really great embroidery stitches and ways to approach projects like this.
You can still join…
It’s not too late to still catch the fun of the Beach House Art Retreat! The retreat itself happened last Saturday but the private Facebook group is live and all the videos and content are still available. Participants are still chatting and posting their projects! There were three different projects to create and you will learn new techniques and ways to use your dies. You can purchase access to the videos and content by going to Eileen’s etsy shop, here.
We are collaborating with an exciting company for the month of June so be sure to stop by next week to see…
