Take a look at these great new dies from Eileen!
This is my favorite release by far!! Why? Well I just love the versatile Bookbinding Die as it allows you to make gorgeous journals without using elastic. I love the way the pages fit when pages are attached to an insert. Be sure to watch the release party video so you can see what I'm talking about.
I used the perfectly sized Pocket Notebook to make this spring journal. The pape is Carta Bella Farmhouse Market. I love its spring colors!
I started my project by making the covers with cardstock. That way I didn't have to worry about patterns and all that! Then I layered up the front cover with design papers, ephemera, and of course, handmade flowers! (Here's a link to the playback of a FAcebook Live I did showing how to make flowers.)
The inside is just a really pretty explosion of color across my pages.
On the right side you can see a waterfall page I made with Eileen's new Card, Waterfall and Tags Thinlets set. I love having a die to cut my pages so that I don't have to worry about getting the pages all sized just right.
Here you can see a tag I made with the same waterfall die set. The tag is the perfect size to use in all of Eileen's journals. AND the cool thing is that the tag is a set of 3! This is the largest of the 3.
I just be you're going to love these dies as much as I do! Here's a list of everything I used to make this journal.
