Festive Makes with Eileen Hull Sizzix Dies

All month long the Eileen Hull Inspiration Team has been making Christmas projects using Eileen's dies. There have been so many great ideas! I made some cute little gift tags using the Tunnel Arches and Home Sweet Home Die Sets.

I put together a ton of the little animals and trees and then had fun arranging them onto tags cut using the Tunnel Arches set. It's hard to see in the photos, but I also added glitter to the snow for that festive winter bling.

Say "Thanks" with Topflight Stamps

This week at Topflight Stamps our focus is on making thank you cards. You can never have too big a stash of those on hand!


Lisa Hoel for Topflight Stamps #creativejuicefreshsqueezed #topflightstamps

I found a beautiful new stamp in the store – "William Morris Strawberry Thief" by IndigoBlu and I knew I wanted to make good use of it. I tried a few different colorways and these two are my favorites! I paired it with a bold "thanks" sentiment cut using the Paper Rose Layered Thanks die set.

Christmas is Coming with Topflight Stamps

I love the vintage look of the PaperArtsy Hot Picks Xmas 10 stamp set. I used them to create the stamped background. I also fussy cut the stamped car image out and popped it out with some foam adhesive squares behind it. Green embossing powder on the tree added some nice contrast.

Lisa Hoel for Topflight Stamps #creativejuicefreshsqueezed #topflightstamps

I applied texture paste through the AALL & Create #100 Nodes over an inky background. Once it was dry, I spritzed and splattered it with Lindy's Smoky Sapphire and Autumn Leaves mists. I also used Winter Green Fresco paint through the PaperArtsy PM025 mini stencil. The owls I stamped, watercolored and fussy cut (from Katzelkraft set KTZ237). Paired with Funny Bone Funnies sentiment strips for a funny snarky card. ;-)

Lisa Hoel for Topflight Stamps #creativejuicefreshsqueezed #topflightstamps


I am a huge fan of the Lavinia Elements ink pads. They blend beautifully and there are so many wonderful colors! I used those to make the blended background (don't forget the blending brushes). I also used them (Lime Punch & Russet Orange) to stamp the webs and text. The raven I stamped with Clair Nocturne. A little splatter of Red Hot Poker Orange from the Lindy's Autumn Leaves spray collection added a bit of glimmer.

Have a Purr-fect Day with Topflight Stamps

Our Topflight Stamps theme is "Anything Goes" this week. I poked through my stash and came up with a fun tag!
