Eileen Hull Chapter 1 New Sizzix Dies Blog Hop

Today members of Eileen Hull's Inspiration and Education Teams are participating in a blog hop showcasing her new Chapter 1 Sizzix Dies.  



I made a Valentine using several of the  dies from her new Folio Page Pocket and Flowers set.  

The flower pieces layer together beautifully with such dimension. This is a 4 1/4" square card.
I used her beautiful new Mandala Thinlits die front and center on my wedding card below-  die cutting it out of a piece of glitter cardstock so it's quite sparkly IRL!  
The die cut LOVE is from her Journaling Words Thinlit die set.
Look at the beautiful detail on this die cut!  
The background was made smooshing watercolor paper into Distress Inks (Candied Apple and Frayed Burlap) rubbed on my craft mat and spritzed with water.

And finally, here is the Folio Journal I made.   

I will have a full tutorial for this  Nature Folio Journal on my blog in March.


Labeled bags tucked in here to put pretty things found on the trail and tags to write notes on.


Please hop through the blogs and be inspired by the work of the talented Inspiration and Educator teams! 

Leave a comment for each designer and you could win a Folio Journal die (as soon as it arrives!)

Join Eileen and specials guests on Eileen's  Facebook Live on Wednesday, Feb. 3 at noon Eastern.
