It's always a tough decision choosing just three of my favourite projects using Eileen Hulls dies. This year has again seen some fabulous new releases along with a few re-releases of some great classics.

I had to choose the Beautiful Moments mini journal as I love the shape of it, the Notebook using the lattice stencils and florals turned out better than I could have imagined and I love the colour. My final choice would have to be the Drawer as it makes the perfect sized gift box.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

The Social Butterfly Journal

https://elizabethr-thecraftyrobin.blogspot.com/2024/11/the-social-butterfly-journal.html
2025 is not that far away now and I am determind to be more organised next year............... so I've created a journal, a Social Butterfly Journal to keep all my social media plans in. I have an inspirational quote on the bottom of every other page.
https://elizabethr-thecraftyrobin.blogspot.com/2024/11/the-social-butterfly-journal.html
The covers are decorated using gorgeous papers from 49&Market with a little over stencilling from Eileen's latest stencil set.

The two signatures are held in place with a piece of ribbon with a leaf charm cut with Eileen's new Charm Die set.

So now I have a beautiful book of inspiring quotes to list my Social Media Posts in. That way I can tick them off as I've shared them.

Happy Crafting

Stacking Drawer Gift Box

 

https://elizabethr-thecraftyrobin.blogspot.com/2024/05/stacking-drawer-gift-box.html
It's the time of year when school exams are taking place and the children are getting ready for the summer break. We all like to treat those fantastic teachers to a little something to say thank you, and what better way to wrap that little gift than in a little reuseable drawer. I assembled the drawer from Matboard, and die cut the drawer front out of my patterned paper.
https://elizabethr-thecraftyrobin.blogspot.com/2024/05/stacking-drawer-gift-box.html
The back of the drawer is visable so I measured the space and cut a piece of paper to size and glued that on.

I measured out a piece of paper that would wrap around the entire drawer, positioning the Butterfly on the top. Using Eileen's double sided tape I carefully wrapped the paper around using a bone folder to keep the corners crisp and square.

To finish off I adhered a couple of pieces of paper lace to the top two sides, one to hide the paper join and two because it just looked so prettty!

It's a great size for a small gift as you can see it fits in a bottle of my favourite nail polish, but could easily hold lip balms, chocolates or other small gifts such as stationery.

Eileen Hull March Realeases with Sizzix - The Storage Box Die

 

https://elizabethr-thecraftyrobin.blogspot.com/2024/03/eileen-hull-march-realeases-with-sizzix.html
Sadly I missed the Release Party for Eileen Hull's new Sizzix collection. So I have decided to share my makes, one per week over the month of March.
https://elizabethr-thecraftyrobin.blogspot.com/2024/03/eileen-hull-march-realeases-with-sizzix.html
First up is a sneeky peek of both the Storage Box and the Mini Book Die. So this week I'm sharing a few photo's of the fabulous Sorage Box Die. It is cut firstly from Matt Board and then covered with a selection of papers from the Vintage Artistry Essentials designed by Katie Pertiet for 49&Market. These collections are fantastic as they are double sided and you can mix and match with the die cuts perfectly.

The top of the box is decorated using the laser cut elements from the paper kit. The top edge of both the box lid and the box itself paper lace to finish off the edge. All of the edges are brushed with Evergreen Bough Distress Ink, to introduce more colour to the design.

I love the design of this box, there is a lip around the inside of the lid, which means it is held in place perfectly.

It's a fantastic size for storage in any workroom or office and I know I'll be making many more of these as gifts!

Happy Crafting.
