Adhere the sides to the card caddy base using Rapid Fuse Adhesive*. The Die comes with scored side pieces that are perfect for putting the box together. I wasn’t thinking and cut two pieces of matboard for my sides. Both will work. (the one that comes with the die would have been a lot easier)

Directions:

Remove the picture hanger hardware and the twine hanger from the wood shadow box.
Paint the shadow box with Royal Ruby Metallic Paint*.

Shimmer & Shake Birthday Card

How to make a Sparkly, Shimmery Shaker Birthday Card.

Shimmer & Shake Birthday Card

One of the great things about being a cardmaker is making fun cards

for special people. I made a quick and easy card for my cousin’s birthday

over the weekend and forgot to take any process shots.

So, I decided to make another one, slightly different.

Making Sparkly Shimmery Cards are fun to make.

Taking photographs of those kind of cards are not.

To give the cards the extra sparkle and shine, I used StyletechCraft’s Chrome Vinyls.

Shimmer & Shake Birthday Card

Directions:

Usually, when I’m working with vinyl, I use it as a sticker. This time I wanted to use the vinyl to make a dimensional piece. Before die-cutting, I placed the vinyl onto the cardstock.
Die-cut the words Happy Birthday using Pink Chrome Adhesive Vinyl*.
Die-cut the birthday background using Silver Chrome Adhesive Vinyl*.
Cut the Small 3D Foam Squares* in half and place them onto the back of the letters. Use tweezers to add each of the letters to the background.

Shimmer & Shake Birthday Card

Die-cut a frame using white cardstock.
Cut a piece of clear acetate slightly smaller than the frame.
Use a double tape roller to add adhesive around the frame.
Remove the protective film from the acetate and place it inside the frame.
Place double-sided adhesive strips over the acetate.
Cut a piece of Holographic Mist Chrome Adhesive Vinyl* slightly smaller than the frame.

Shimmer & Shake Birthday Card

Add the sequins to the inside of the frame. Leave enough room that the sequins shake.
Remove the protective film from the foam strips and add the cut piece of Holographic Mist Chrome Adhesive Vinyl* to the back of the frame.
Peel back the backing from the back of the Holographic Mist Chrome Adhesive Vinyl* and place the frame onto a piece of pink dot scrapbook paper.

Shimmer & Shake Birthday Card

Add 3D foam squares to the back of the die-cut background.
Place “Happy Birthday” onto the front of the frame.
Adhere the frame layers on a white card.
Add a simple white sheer bow to finish the card.

DIY Floral Notepad Holder

DIY Floral Notepad Holder

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.

DIY Floral Notepad Holder

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.

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post. As a member of the Eileen Hull Educator Team, I have been provided product in exchange for my creative ideas. The view and opinions are my own.

DIY Floral Notepad Holder using Eileen Hull & Sizzix Dies.

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)

DIY Floral Notepad Holder using Eileen Hull & Sizzix Dies.

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.

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.

How to make The Spring Bunny Door Hanger:

The bunny was a little too gray for my taste, so I warmed up the color by painting it with DecoArt Bleached Sand Acrylic Paint*.

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.

How to make a Spring Bunny Door Hanger with a Dollar Tree Bunny, Acrylic Paint, and StyleTechCraft Glossy Craft Vinyl.

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 removed all the details inside the cut image with a vinyl craft pick tool. I left only the background.

I used the same cut stencil for both sides.

To create the handle, paint several wood beads with the same acrylic paint as the flowers.

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.

Sue’s Storage Tips for Craft Vinyl Storage

January 6, 2023January 12, 20232 Comments

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.
