New Sizzix Chapter 3 Dies from Eileen Hull Designs

 Woo-hoo!  Time for another fabulous release from Eileen Hull Designs by Sizzix.  You are going to love this release!

The Bigz Plus Slotted Treat Box measures 6 1/2” x 5” x 3 1/2” and can hold so many things- a set of cards, journals, doll clothes, ephemera storage or you can even use it as a gift box! This is a Scoreboards die which is specially designed to cut and score thick material like matboard, chipboard, leather, felt, fabric and metal. *A 9” wide machine is required to cut this die.

I decided to turn the Slotted Treat Box into a piggy bank!  I think any kid would love this and its cuteness would make you want to "feed" it money!

The Envelope, Folder & Flowers Thinlits dies is made up of nine dies- an adorable mini envelope, file folder, set of small, medium and large hearts, and a large and small flower and leaf set. This die set will be perfect to create ephemera using your scraps!

The Keys 3D Embossing Folder is special to Eileen as the keys all came from her Dad’s house. The names on the keys had to be removed because of possible copyright issues, but I love the idea of stamping or writing words on them. The detail on this is beautiful and adding Luster Wax will really make the design pop!

I used the hearts from the Envelope, Folder & Flowers Thinlits dies and the Keys embossing folder to make this card.  I used the Keys embossing folder on a strip of black cardstock and then rubbed over the raised embossing with gold Sizzix luster wax to make the keys pop.   I die-cut 3 different sized hearts from the Envelope, Folder & Flowers Thinlits die-set and added some faux stitching. Oh yes, the corners are also from the embossed keys and they were cut with the XL Slotted Treat Box die.

Here's another card featuring the Keys 3D Embossing Folder but it is also hiding a secret.  Check back later this month to see what else is coming from Eileen!  I used Core'dinations cardstock to emboss the keys and then sanded the embossed keys to make the keys stand out.

The Field Notes and Specimen Card die is a Bigz XL die that holds 5” x 7” pages or photos- a new orientation! The Specimen Card may be used to hold photos, as a journaling card or a shaker. Holes are pre-cut into the book spine which is adjustable from 1/2” to 1 1/2 in width. *XL Cutting Pads will be needed to cut the book cover.

Anything that I can turn into a mini album is always near and dear to my heart!  The Field Notes and Specimen Card die certainly fits the bill! There's lots of journal fodder using the Envelope, Folder & Flowers Thinlits dies inside this journal and I'll share that with you later in the month.
