Eileen Hull’s Sizzix Chapter 4 Die collection released at the beginning of the month. (Watch the Release Party replay here if you missed it.) This is such a great release and the designers made so many inspirational projects! The rest of the month they will be sharing the tutorials for them on their blogs.
Here’s what Eileen has to say about her new dies:
“The Geometric Box is a different kind of design for me. I love the ease of assembly, the unique shape and and the possibility of expanding the box into larger containers! This is a ScoreBoards die so it may be cut from sturdy materials like matboard, chipboard, metal, leather and fabric. The finished box measures 4″ h x 3″ w x 4″ d… or so… a fun feature of this die is that it adapts to how you shape it. You’ll see! Watch my livestream videos to show how to expand the possibilities of this die. Use the Geometric Box for storage – for pencils, silverware, flowers, or tools. The box may also be used as a gift container – imagine adding teabags, a pretty silver spoon and a bow as a get well gift!
The Sunflower is a Bigz L steel rule die – designed to cut and score a myriad of materials. The Sunflower is BIG– it measures about 4″ across and comes with a leaf, three sizes of petals and a flower center! Stack layers of petals to make a traditional sunflower, or change colors and create a pink coneflower. The basic shape is there for you to create your own flowers! Make a stem for the flower using wire and your Twist and Style Tool. The coordinating Geometric Box die works perfectly as a vase.
and a NEW 3-D Embossing Folder!
I love the whimsical patterns of vintage cutlery and that’s why I created this Silverware 3D Embossing Folder! The design is so detailed you can actually see a tiny bride and groom on the handle of a cake server. This folder is perfect for creating seating charts, menus, invitations, cards and recipe books. You would be surprised at the many materials you can emboss – metal, paper, cardboard, Sizzix Texture Roll and more. Once you have embossed the image, rub a light coat of a metallic Luster Wax over the top of the design and you have an amazing result! “

Designer Elizabeth Robinson used the Sunflower Die to create a fabulous wreath to use as home decor. I love this idea!
