Blog Hop Release Party - Eileen Hull's Ch. 2 Sizzix Dies!

 


Welcome to our Chapter 2 Release Party! Today we are sharing Folio Journal accessory dies – the Waterfall & Tags and Bookbinding & Label dies and the new Bigz L Camper ScoreBoards Die! But don't be limited to keeping them in a book – you can also use these elements in different size journals, cards and layouts!

Check out all the different ways to use these dies on our Blog Hop. Click through and leave a comment on each of the designers' posts and be eligible to win a $25 gift certificate in Eileen's Etsy Shop!

Join us on Facebook Live and YouTube Live for an up close and personal look at the team's projects. I will also demo how to use the dies during the show. Really hope you can join us for this fun event- prepare to be surprised 🙂 Thanks for joining us ❤



For my project, I made the 3-D Camper into a holder for a tag album chronicling our family camping trips from the time the boys were little. I sure had fun looking back through all our photo files to choose which pics to use! Here are a few views. Scroll on past the hop list to see more details and a short tutorial on how the camper goes together.

I used Eileen's new Waterfall die to cut flaps so I could 
layer photos on a single tag. The die made it really easy!


Speaking of easy, the 3-D Camper Die is easy to put together and has so many possibilities!

Step 1 – Cut out the pieces from matboard or chipboard. You will need to cut two sets of the camper sides, two sets of wheels, one bottom panel and two of the "ends" for the bottom panel. I used Eileen's Molten Dimensions Aqua Splash embossing powder to cover the decorative panels on the camper sides. I also ran the main body parts through an embossing folder to give them some ridged texture.


Here you can see I've glued the two end parts to the bottom panel.

Step 2 – I glued all the decorative parts to the camper sides. I also applied a little of Sizzix's new Silver Luster Wax to the raised parts of the embossed sides. It gives it a nice little shine! I also glued the bottom assembly to the back. Once it was dry, I glued on the front and then the tires.



Step 3 – the base is a Tim Holtz Vignette box I covered with paper. You can also see that I covered the camper tires with Molten Dimensions embossing powder Black Magic and Polished Silver. (I did that before I glued them on.)


Step 4 – making the tag album. This took awhile lol! The construction is simple though. I cut many many tags and connected them together with washi tape hinges on both sides. I added a bit of glue under the tape so it would hold better. (I don't trust the washi adhesive on its own.) You can make the album as small or as big as you like, just keep adding tags. ;-)

See, easy peasy! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the Hop!
