Create a Handy Floral Notepad Holder using Sizzix Dies by Eileen Hull.

I am a list maker!

I usually have several lists going at one time.

And, if the list gets too messy, I’ll create a new one.

Lists are my way of keeping me organized.

Post-it notes* are another favorite of mine.

This Floral Notepad Holder is a great place to put my Post-it notes.

The theme for this month’s Eileen Hull Teams is Die Cut Mania.

The best part about Eileen’s dies is you can mix them with other Eileen dies to create one great project.

Materials Used: (*affiliate links)

Directions:

I used a piece of white mat board* as the base to create the pieces for the Notepad Holder. To adhere the paper to the mat board, I like to run the decorative paper through the Xyron Creative Station* to add a complete adhesive to the back. It makes everything lay wonderfully smooth with no peeling up corners.
Die Cut the pieces for the stand using the Phone Stand Die* for the base, Frame Pocket Journal Die* for the pocket, and the Journal Die* for the decorative plaque. (as shown in the picture above)

Gently fold the die-cut pieces on their scorelines.
Adhere the pieces together using a strong adhesive. My favorite for adhering mat board is Dap Liquid Adhesive*. All you need to do is hold the glued piece in place for 30 seconds, and it stays secure.

To add a decorative element to the edge of the center plaque, use the flat end of a gold calligraphy pen* to add a gold edging. (It may take a little practice to make your lines smooth.)

Cut the letters “NOTES” for the front of the pocket using the Alpha Numeric Die* and StyleTechCraft Gold Craft Vinyl*.
Want a matching gold pen for the notepad holder? Measure the length of the barrel. Cut the vinyl 1 1/4″ wide. Carefully adhere the gold vinyl to the barrel. It adds personality to a simple everyday pen.

DIY Floral Notepad Holder

Place the letters on the back of a small piece of gridded transfer tape* to line them up straight.
Place the transfer paper onto the small plaque and rub over the transfer paper to transfer the letters.

“If Friends Were Flowers” Shelf Sitter

"If Friends were Flowers" DIY Mason Jar Shelf Sitter

DIY yourself A Happy Little Mason Jar Shelf Sitter.

As Spring turns into Summer, I get inspired to change my decor to happy colors.

I like to open the windows and let in the fresh air.

And…I love to bring in fresh blooms whenever I can.

Flowers make me HAPPY!

"If Friends were Flowers" DIY Mason Jar Shelf Sitter

The Wood Mason Jar Cut-Out…

Sometimes when I see an item at the store, I have a vision of what I want to do.

Sometimes it works out, and other times it does not.

This particular time was the latter.

When I first saw the wood mason jar with flowers cut out,

I saw it stained with only the flowers painted.

So, I stained the wood.

It might have been the stain I used, but I wasn’t pleased with the result.

"If Friends were Flowers" DIY Mason Jar Shelf Sitter

After letting it sit overnight, I decided a little acrylic paint might help.

So, I watered down my paints so they didn’t look too heavy and painted away.

While it isn’t what I originally had planned, it’s not too bad.

It’s bright and cheery.

Doesn’t vinyl make everything just a little better?

For extra personality, I added vinyl lettering using my favorite StyletechCraft* adhesive vinyl.

"If Friends were Flowers" DIY Mason Jar Shelf Sitter

I used a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine* with the “Monsoon Font” from The Silhouette Store to create the words.
Cut the words using StyleTech Craft Glossy Vinyl.
After cutting, remove the excess vinyl using a Vinyl Weeding Tool*.
Lay the transfer paper over the words.
Rub over the transfer paper with a vinyl scraper tool and lift the design from the white paper backing.
Lay the transfer paper onto the sign and rub over the design. Remove the transfer paper.

To make it a shelf sitter, I glued a small block, “borrowed” from the kid’s block basket, onto the back.
I painted the block with matching acrylic paint.

Now that it’s finished, I think the shelf sitter would also make a cute Mother’s Day or Teacher’s gift.

So many possibilities.

Simple Embossed Greeting Cards

Embossed Greeting Cards

Simple but Extraordinary Embossed Greeting Cards.

If you haven’t noticed, I love making cards.

Even though I’m mainly a “Clean and Simple” cardmaker,

I do enjoy adding a little texture from time to time.

Texture adds dimension.

And there’s no better way to add texture than to use an Sizzix Embossing Folder by Eileen Hull.

Embossed Greeting Cards

Embossed Birthday Card

Eileen’s New 3D Tablecloth Embossing Folder* creates an elegant textured background

for this Simple Birthday Card. The words “Happy Birthday were die-cut using

Eileen’s New Alphanumeric Die* and Ultra Metallic Gold Adhesive Craft Vinyl*

from StyleTechCraft.

Embossed Greeting Cards

Embossed Greeting Cards

For this simple Birthday Card, I used the Woven Leather Embossing Folder*.

To use an embossing folder, place a piece of paper inside the folder.
Place the embossing folder into the Sizzix Big Shot Die Cutting Machine*. You’ll need to adjust the layers on the plate for the thickness of the folder. Crank the handle to run the embossing folder through the machine.
Open the folder for a beautifully embossed piece of paper.

I got my Sewing Machine* out for the next two cards.

I’ve wanted to make a quilt card for a while.

A quilt card is a great way to use up small scraps of paper.

Materials Used on the Quilt Cards: (*affiliate links)

Embossed Greeting Cards

Quilt Card Directions:

I put my paper through a Xyron 3″ Disposable Sticker Maker* to make the paper into sticker paper.
Cut them into 1″ squares. I laid the squares out first to play with the quilt pattern.
To make a 4″ square quilt, cut a 4″ base to lay the squares on.
Stick the squares onto the base and trim if necessary to even up the edges.
Sew in between the squares using a sewing machine.
Adhere the quilt onto paper layers and a 5″ x 5″ card.

Embossed Greeting Cards

This pink quilt card is one of my new favorites.

It reminds me of an old quilt I used to have on my bed.

It’s soft, sweet, and feminine.

It makes me want to curl up with a good book on a lazy day.

I love changing out my decorations with the seasons.

For Spring this year, I decided I needed a new bunny.

This cute little bunny door hanger makes me smile every time I see him.

Dollar Tree* always seems to have the perfect wood cut out for me to use.

And when it only costs $1.25, it’s affordable too.

My project was inspired by a Large Floral Rabbit Decoration that I saw at Michael’s Craft Store. I liked the look of the painted flowers on the rabbit. But since my hand-painting skills are not that good, a floral stencil would have to do.

I created a stencil using StyleTechCraft Matte Removable Vinyl*, my Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine*, and the “Flower Corner” SVG file from The Silhouette Store.

I used the same cut stencil for both sides.

An Easy DIY Tip: Dip the end of the twine into craft glue. Twirl the fibers with your fingers tips to make the strands tight. Once the glue dries, it’s easy to add the beads.

I Love You more than Donuts.

I Love You More than Donuts Card

“I Love You More than Donuts” Valentine’s Day Card.

As I mentioned in my last post, my husband and I aren’t that gushy romantic couple.

This card is the Valentine’s Day card that I made for him.

I Love You More than Donuts Card

He really is a sweetie…

In the early years of our marriage, my husband would buy me a donut every weekend morning.

It was one of the sweet little things he would do for me.

That lasted until I told him I couldn’t eat another donut. (I know, I’m an ungrateful wife.)

But recently, my husband has been on a donut kick again.

And sometimes, if I ask nicely, he’ll buy one for me.

So technically, this should have been his Valentine’s card to me. (I hope!)

Happy Valentine’s Day Everyone!

You warm my heart mug

How to make a “You Warm my Heart” Valentine’s Day Mug.

Some girls may want roses and expensive gifts for Valentine’s Day.

Not this girl. Give me something thoughtful and sweet, and I’ll be happy.

(Oh, and a little chocolate never hurts.)

How to make a "You warm my heart" mug using StyleTechCraft Vinyl.

While shopping at my local Dollar Tree…

I found this simple red and white mug*; I was drawn to its color because it is more barn red than fire engine red.

I decided to make a fun Valentine’s mug using my favorite StyleTechCraft Adhesive Vinyl.

Did you know, Dollar Tree* has a lot of glass and ceramic items that are perfect for adding vinyl?

To make the Valentine’s Mug:

I used an inexpensive red mug found at Dollar Tree*.
Prep the surface of the mug with rubbing alcohol to remove any oils.
I used the Silhouette Store “ink-free” font and the Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine* to cut the words.
I used StyleTechCraft Silver Luster Vinyl* for the words and StyleTechCraft Rose Gold Craft Vinyl* for the hearts.
After cutting, remove the excess vinyl using a Vinyl Weeding Tool*.
Lay the transfer paper over the words.
Rub over the transfer paper with a vinyl scraper tool and lift the words from the white paper backing.

How to make a "You warm my heart" mug using StyleTechCraft Vinyl.

Lay the transfer paper onto the mug. Since it has a curved surface, start from the center of the words and rub one side at a time using a vinyl scraper tool. The tool allows you to smooth the image and eliminate air bubbles.
Remove Vinyl Transfer Tape*.
Line up hearts over the words and apply the vinyl hearts onto the mug.

Allow the vinyl to cure on the mug for four days before use. (Hand Wash Only)

Sue’s Storage Tips for Craft Vinyl Storage

Sue's Tips for Craft Vinyl Storage

Are you looking for an easy way to sort and store your vinyl sheets?

I’ve been making projects with StyleTechCraft’s Adhesive Vinyl for the past five years.

I am a member of their Design Team; they are an extremely generous company to work with.

Because of their generosity, I have accumulated a lot of vinyl.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

I have tried a few different ways to organize my vinyl,

I always found myself spreading everything out to find the exact style and color I needed.

I needed a solution that would adapt to the way I work.

“This is a sponsored post. As a member of the StyleTechCraft Design Team I have been provided product and compensation in exchange for my creative ideas. The views and opinions are my own.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

I find that it’s easier to sort the vinyl according to the type of vinyl.

I created broad categories that would fit my vinyl.

I found the Clear IRIS Scrapbook Paper Storage Boxes*

and the Modular Storage Rack at Michael’s Craft Store.

Vinyl is heavier than regular scrapbook paper and needs a heavy-duty storage cabinet.

Having open shelves makes it easy to find exactly what style I’m looking for.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

Creating Labels for the Iris Boxes

I have been wanting to label my boxes for a while. I finally took the time this week to do it.

I used StyleTechCraft Black Matte Removable Adhesive Vinyl* and a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine* to create 4 1/2″ x 1″ Black labels for my IRIS Storage Boxes*. The labels are easily removable if I change my mind about what I put into the box.
I used StyleTechCraft White Adhesive Craft Vinyl* to create the words for my label.
Use a vinyl pick tool to remove the vinyl inside and around the letters.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

Cut a piece of Vinyl Transfer Tape* to fit over the vinyl words. Gently rub over the transfer paper using the squeegee tool. Lift the transfer tape to remove the vinyl from the white liner.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

Place letters onto the black label.
Gently rub over the vinyl transfer tape using the squeegee tool to make sure all the image has transferred.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

Use the transfer tape to pick up the label and adhere it onto the front of the IRIS box*.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

My office assistant, Dexter, walked into my shot as I was taking pictures.

He’s not a lot of help, but he sure is cute.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

In my office/workshop, I have a counter dedicated to my Silhouette Cameo.

It’s nice to have it out and not in the way.

Sue's Vinyl Storage Tip

Under the Silhouette Cameo is a drawer full of StyleTechCraft Vinyl Transfer Tape* and vinyl tools.

I love having everything easily accessible and at my fingertips.

DIY Porcelain Snowman Ornament

How to make a Porcelain Snowman Ornament using StyleTechCraft Vinyl.

I picked up this round porcelain ornament blank sometime early in the year at Dollar Tree.

I knew it would make a cute Christmas ornament for this year’s Christmas tree.

All it needed was a little StyleTechCraft Craft Vinyl* and a cute snowman design.

DIY Porcelain Snowman Ornament

I used StyleTechCraft Glossy Craft Vinyl and a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine* to make the snowman ornament.
I used the “Let it, Snow, with Snowman” SVG file and my Silhouette Cameo and sized the design to fit on my ornament. My ornament is almost 5″ round.
I cut the words and snowman outline using black gloss craft vinyl and used olive and dark red vinyl for the scarf and snowflakes. And, of course, orange vinyl for his carrot nose.

DIY Porcelain Snowman Ornament

Because I needed to work around the top holes of the ornament, I cut the outline from the snowman. I carefully placed it on the ornament first to make sure it fit.

DIY Porcelain Snowman Ornament

I used Transfer Tape* to add the snowman design to the ornament.
Place the Transfer Tape* over the vinyl. Rub gently over the vinyl using a vinyl scraper tool.

Remove the transfer paper from the white paper backing and place it on the ornament. The clear transfer tape makes it easy to line up your design.

DIY Porcelain Snowman Ornament

All you need to do to finish up the ornament is to add ribbon for hanging and put it on your tree.

Trace around the top of the acorn to create a pattern for the acorn top. Fill in the bottom with a wavy line. Trace the pattern onto plaid scrapbook paper and cut it out.
There are different ways to adhere to the paper. My favorite way is to use the
Xyron Creative Station* to add adhesive to the back of the scrapbook paper.
Add the plaid paper to the top of the acorn. Use an extra fine point black sharpie* to add a border around the acorn top shape.

Using a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine* and the Nuts for Fall SVG File, size the design to fit onto the bottom of the acorn shape. Cut the design using several colors of StyleTechCraft Luster Adhesive Vinyl.

Decorate the top of the acorn with a big bow, faux leaves, and a small acorn embellishment.
Add a small piece of twine for hanging onto a door or add it to the center of a Fall Wreath.
