Eileen Hull and Sizzix October New Release Stamps and Dies

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.

Hello Fall Mini Album

The New Sizzix Mini Album by Eileen Hull* creates a 5” x 5” x 1” Mini-Album. The die is 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.

I added a flip book on one side of the album and a small signature book on the other.

Hello Fall Mini Album

It’s a great little album for adding Fall Memories.

Christmas Ornament Card

When I saw the New Sizzix Charms 6-piece Thinlit Die Set*,

I knew I had to make them into ornaments for a Christmas Card.

Wine Glass Charms

Wine Glass Charms

The Charms Die Set* also made these super cute Wine Glass Charms.

I cut them using Sizzix Shrink Plastic*. Once they were cut, I made the top hole a little bigger with a 1/8th hole punch* and then used a heat tool* to shrink them. I color them using Decocolor paint markers*.

Damasked Embossed Watercolor Card

Damask Embossed Watercolor Card

I used the New Large Floral Damask Embossing Folder* to emboss white cardstock. I water colored on top of the raised areas for a simple floral damask.

Damasked Embossed Watercolor Card

I made a coordinating charm for the top of the card using the Charms Die Set*.

Red and White Embossed Damask Card

Red and White Embossed Damask Card

For the Red and White Embossed Damask Card, I used a red dye ink pad and rubbed it over the floral damask embossing folder* before embossing. Once it was run through the Big Shot Machine* it transferred the red ink to the background of the paper. I water colored the center with yellow ink.

DIY Gold Bunny Silhouette Pillow & Treat Bag

DIY Gold Bunny Silhouette Pillow & Treat Bag

Add a little glam this Spring with this cute Gold Bunny Silhouette Pillow.

It’s an easy project to make. Even if you’re a simple sewer, like me.

The Bunny reminds me of a Lindt Gold Foiled Chocolate Easter Bunny*,

and who doesn’t like that?

DIY Gold Bunny Silhouette Pillow & Treat Bag

How to make the Gold Silhouette Bunny Pillow:

Choose your fabric. Cut the fabric into two squares or rectangles of equal size. (I cut my cream fabric to 14″ x 14″ to make a 12″ pillow.)
Place the two fabric pieces together right-side in.
Sew the edges together, leaving a 2-inch opening along one side.
Turn the pillow right-side out.
Fold the raw edges in and press them flat.
Using the Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die-Cutting Machine* and an SVG file from The Silhouette Store, I created a design for the pillow.
Cut the design using Gold Heat Transfer Vinyl* making sure to mirror the image.
Place the shiny side down on the cutting mat.
After you’ve cut the design, weed the excess material away from the design, leaving only the parts you want to transfer.
Position the design on your fabric. Use an iron or a heat press to apply heat and pressure to the design, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Peel off the transfer tape.
Stuff the pillow with Poly-Fil®* and sew the opening closed.

DIY Gold Bunny Silhouette Treat Bag

I knew a head of time that I wanted to make a couple of small treat bags. I decreased the size of the bunny and cut it at the same time as the pillow design.

How to make the Bunny Treat Bag:

Cut a piece of gold polka dot fabric approx. 10″ x 14″.
On both ends of the fabric, fold down approx. 1″ and sew a seam across the top. That should leave you with a 3/4″ pocket.
Fold the material in half and sew the remaining sides closed.
Trim excess material on the seams and turn the fabric inside out to reveal the bag.
Iron the gold HTV bunny on the front of the bag. (see above directions)
Cut two small slits on the top pocket of the bag on each end.
Cut two 24″ pieces of gold ribbon.
Attach a small safety pin to the end of a piece of ribbon. Thread the ribbon through the top of the bag, remove the safety pin, and knot the ribbon.
On the opposite end of the bag, thread the second piece of ribbon through.
Pull both ends of the ribbon to gather and close the bag.

DIY Gold Bunny Silhouette Treat Bag

With all the warm weather we’ve had lately, Spring Fever has hit me pretty hard.

I’ve completely rid my decor of anything resembling Winter.

I’m ready for Spring, Bunnies, and Flowers!
