Sizzix has a magical material in their Surfacez line, Cork Roll! It can be die cut, stamped, embossed and used in all sorts of interesting ways. As a collaboration, Sizzix sent some to several of the designers on Eileen’s Teams for us to put it through its paces. Get comfy and enjoy this recap of all the inspiration…
Did I also mention that you can sew the Surfacez Cork Roll? Check out this cute little pouch Eileen Hull made using her Tiny Book Case Die and sewing up the sides. Hmmm… I wonder if a gift card could fit in there?
Jennie Atkinson made a fabulous traveler’s journal with the Cork Roll with stamping and stitching. Awesome! Find the tutorial and more details on her blog.
Pam Bray’s festive make showcases Cork heat embossed flowers cut using Eileen’s Sunflower Die. This decor piece really packs a visual punch and would be a perfect touch in your holiday decorations. Find the details on Pam’s blog.
Using the Surfacez Cork Roll as the background substrate for her Full Size Journal cover, Maggi Harding also demonstrates how well the cork accepts different medias. Head on over to her blog post to see!
Another beautiful cork covered journal was created by Sarah Lizzie. Her Happiness journal is delightful and I especially love the dry embossed hearts in the centers of the sunflowers. Find the instructions on her blog!
Keep going… more Surfacez Cork Roll inspiration to see!
Madeline Arendt made a double sided basket using the Cork Roll and Eileen’s Geometric Box Die. Two geo boxes put together is a great configuration. I also love the delicate cork die cut decorations on the fronts. See how Madeline constructed this project in her blog post.
Gearing up for 2023, Lisa Hoel created a calendar with a cork covered base cut using the Display Stand Die. It’s embellished with foiled texture paste and a glam flower cut with the Sunflower Die. See all the details in Lisa’s blog instructions!
Lastly, Sue Eldred shared a timely project with us – rustic gift tags for Christmas packages! These would be easy to make multiples of to use on all your holiday gifts this season. Find all the info on Sue’s blog.
