Robot Valentine’s Day Card: You Make My Heart Beep

Hi everyone! Valentine’s Day is only a couple of days away and I want to share a quick card I made. I used the Mini Album Diecut as the base for the card. I used a few other dies and thinlits by Eileen Hull. Also this month it’s “Anything Goes” with Eileen Hull’s Inspiration Team. Anyways, let’s get started!

First, I would like to share a side note about the robot printable I used. I had been fooling around on AI creating images and I came up with these fat, steampunk and vintage robots. I thought this would be perfect to use on a card.

Anyways, I placed a piece of brown cardstock onto the Mini Album Diecut. It was sandwiched between cutting plates. Then, I ran it through the Diecut Machine. I folded in half to create the base of the card.

I cut a piece of cardstock slightly smaller than the base of the card.I also cut a strip of cardstock and inked both pieces with Brown Chalk Ink. I glued both to the card base.

I cut out the teardrop heart from the Charms Thinlits. I will be using the largest heart from the teardrop.

Next, I cut out the circle from the Ornament Box Diecut (retired). I embossed the circle with the Dotted Embossing Folder. I lightly applied Rose Gold Luster Wax over the embossed area of the circle.

I adhered the circle to the edge of the card. I printed the “You Make my Heart Beep” sentiment from my computer. I cut out a mat to frame the sentiment. I inked the edges and glued both together. I added Foam Pop Dots to the back before placing on the card.

I fussy cut a robot from the printable. I placed it off center of the circle and glued the largest heart to the center of its chest.

Make sure you visit Eileen Hull‘s blog for inspiration. You can also find more details there on other ways to follow and keep up with her and her team.

Also I have a question, would you be interested in me sharing the robot printable I created? Let me know below.

Creative Tag Making with Eileen Hull Silverware 3D Embossing Folder

Hi everyone! I’m back with another tag. I had actually created this last week but I had family obligations that kept me away from blogging. So I’m sharing a week late and hopefully next week I can double up and do two posts instead of one.

Anyways, I used the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits, Silverware 3D Embossing Folder and the Faux Postage Thinlits, all by Eileen Hull, to create this tag. So let’s get started!

First, I cut two of the largest tags from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits since I will have to glue these back to back. I placed the aqua color tag into the Silverware 3D Embossing Folder, place between one of the plates and platform and run through the Diecut Machine.

I lightly inked the raised edges with a green chalk ink. Next I applied Rose Gold Luster Wax over random areas of the tag. I also adhered both tags back to back before jumping into decorating the embossed side.

Second, I went through my pile of scraps and came across two partials of the Faux Postage Thinlits, a circle punch, “delicious” sentiment and a few long skinny scraps of cardstock. I adhered all those to the base of the tag.

Third, I stamped an image of silverware onto a piece of cardstock but I only fussy cut the spoon out and lightly inked with a brown chalk ink. The stamp set I used is from Tim Holtz: Nature Cling Stamps which is retired.

I fussy cut an image of a woman with a rabbit head from a itKuPiLLimaginarium Printable. I also used a box cutter and cut around the hand so I could place the spoon in the hand before gluing to the tag to finish this side.

Fourth, for the other side of the tag I used the negative of a circle that I had punched out, seven image and several scraps of patterned cardstock and glued to the tag.

Fifth, I picked a woman image from the Mini Paper Dolls and adhered to the tag. I dug into my stash flowers and glued to the skirt of the woman. I also added a button and thread to the center of the flower to finish.

Vintage Buttons Tag

Hi everyone! I’m back with my tag for the week. I used leftover scraps from pervious projects and used Eileen Hull’s Vintage Buttons 3D Embossing Folder and the Tag and Bookplate Diecut (retired) by Tim Holtz. Anyways, let’s get started!

First, I had leftover scraps of Mat Board that I cut a tag from using the Tag and Bookplate Diecut (retired). Since the piece of mat board was shorter than the actual tag die I have a “short” version of the tag.

I placed the tag into the Vintage Buttons 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Diecut Machine.

I lightly inked the tag with a few different shades of blue inks.

Second, I really didn’t like the how the blue looked “flat” so I lightly inked over the raised areas with a green chalk ink. Then, I applied Rose Gold Luster Wax over the raised areas of the tag. You can use a Blending Tool to apply the wax but I chose to use my finger.

Third, I gathered up my cardstock scraps, these are from 7 Gypsies… I miss this company so much, I added those to the tag. I cut a a crochet piece from the Crochet #2 Thinlits, inked with a brown chalk ink and glued to the tag. The button card piece I did add thread to each button hole before adding to the tag.

Fourth, I dug into my stash of flowers and found this vintage looking flower and glued it onto the tag.

Fifth, I finished this side of the tag with bows made from thread and lace and a button.

Sixth, I covered the back of the tag with a polkadot cardstock. I kept this side simple by adding a few scraps of cardstock to the tag.

Seventh, the little boy image and butterfly wings was already fussy cut and ready in my stash. This printable is from the Steampunk Fairy Boys Paper Dolls. I glued another piece of the crochet diecut to the tag along with the butterfly boy, a bit of lace and a button to finish this side of the tag.

If you have any questions about this tag or comments in general please leave them below. Also if you haven’t been by Eileen Hull’s blog for the latest from her teams you can find the post HERE.

B is for Bird ATC

Hi everyone! I’m back today with an ATC I created for a swap that Eileen Hull had hosted in her Facebook group. The people that signed up for the swap were paired with a swap partner and all we had to do was create an ATC and use a product by Eileen Hull on the project. I used the Library Pocket ATC Card and Tabs, Alphanumeric and the flowers and leaf sprig from the Folio Page Pocket and Flowers Thinlits.

If you don’t know what an ATC is it stands for Artist Trading Card and they measure 2 1/2″x3 1/2″, the size of a football trading card.

I cut a card and tab from the Library Pocket ATC Card and Tabs Thinlits. I adhered a piece of patterned cardstock off center of the card. Next I fussy cut two birds and the birdhouse from the Let it Snow Art Dolls Printables, glued the birdhouse printable, bits of laces and bird onto the card. Since the top of the birdhouse “hung” off the card I added the tab. Also the birdhouse printable had a small line in it when it printed and since I hated to discard the image I added Rose Gold Luster Wax to the roof to hide the line…it worked. I added a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the back of a piece of cardstock, placed over the letter B of the Alphanumeric Thinlit and run through the Diecut Machine. I placed the letter B onto the tab along with a flower and finished the front by adhering a flower and leaf sprigs to the bottom of the bird.

For the back of the card I placed the library card stamp, from the Buttons, Cards and More Stamp Set onto the MISTI Stamping Tool, inked and stamped onto a piece of White Cardstock. Next I cut and glued onto the card along with a flower, leaves, the negative image of the letter B and a bird. I finished by signing, dating and numbering my card. I cut out a library pocket in Vellum, put together and placed the card inside. I kept it very simple.

Now for Jen’s ATCs!!! I absolutely LOVE what she created and all the extras she sent!

She created two ATCS, altered a little holder so I can display the cards.

Look at all the different textures!

Doesn’t the brick on the ATC look real?!? The little holder is perfect and she decorate it with the Mandala Thinlit too. Did I say I love everything?!!

Oh so Cold! Altered Envelope Journal

Hi everyone! I’m back today with an altered envelope that I turned into a junk journal. For the base (cover) I used a business size #10 envelope and some dies, thinlits and embossing folders by Eileen Hull. Let’s get started!

I gathered all the scraps of cardstock, embellishments and bits and pieces to make this journal. As I have said in past blog posts this is a great way to use up what you have laying around from other projects.

The first thing I did was seal the flap of the envelope and then fold in half to create the cover. I cut a piece of cardstock and an old dictionary page to fit inside. I also added a fussy cut polar bear printable as the third page. I folded all together, punched two holes into the spine of the cover and all inside pages. I threaded a needle with ribbon and sewed and tied all together into a nice little bow on the spine.

I adhered patterned cardstock to the inside and outside of the cover. I layered more patterned cardstock and glued to the cover but I left the top open so I could add tags to the pocket. I fussy cut one the little girls that I printed from the Let it Snow Art Dolls Printables. I had actually printed this out for a Christmas project but they didn’t print correctly. I couldn’t throw out the printable and I figured since this was a junk journal why not use it? I adhered the girl image onto the “pocket”, cut and glued two snowflakes together from the Wreath and Snowflake Thinlits and cut a label from the Library Pocket ATC and Tabs Thinlits and glued onto the snowflake. I put together the word “Journal” from alphabet stickers and placed onto the label.

I cut a pocket from the Frame Pocket Journal Diecut and embossed with the 3D Tablecloth Embossing Folder, folded the flaps and adhered to the inside cover. I dug out a paper snowflake, glued to the pocket and added a button to the center of it. I added tags to the pocket. One of the tags I added one of the fussy cut girl, plus a tab which I cut from the Library Pocket ATC and Tabs Thinlits and a chipboard snowflake to the tab. The opposite page I decorated with lace, bits of velvet ribbon and a scrap of patterned cardstock.

The next pages I added scraps of cardstock, Ric Rac and a stamped snowman image to the page. The opposite page I cut and distressed a piece of patterned cardstock and adhered to the page. I cut the larger snowflake from Tim Holtz’s 3D Snowflake Impresslits (retired), placed onto the page along with a strip of patterned cardstock and a sequin which I glued to the center of the snowflake.

The next set of pages I glued a strip of patterned cardstock to the top of the page, placed the chipboard “winter” sentiment on the strip along with scraps of cardstock, vellum and a small snowflake from Doodle Christmas Thinlits. The other page I cut and distressed a piece of patterned cardstock, glued to the page, placed a chipboard “oh so cold!” sentiment onto the patterned cardstock along with another small snowflake. I didn’t add any embellishments to the back side of the polar bear printable.

The next set of pages I placed a small penguin behind a specimen slide that I had in my stash and glued onto the page. I finished by adding the “snow fun!” sentiment, mini snowflake and chipboard snowflakes. The opposite page I added various laces, sheer fabric and Ric Rac to the page.

The last page I adhered scraps of patterned cardstock to the top and a smaller snowflake from the 3D Snowflake Impresslits and a sequin to the center of the snowflake.

I applied Stickles to the girls bonnets and small black gems to the coat of the taller girl to finish.

The Wandering Butterfly Boy

Hi everyone! I can’t believe it’s already the middle of the month and this is my first post! I’ve had a lot of behind the scenes stuff going on…some good and some not so good stuff…ugh! But anyways, I created a tag using some of Eileen Hull’s new and not so new thinlits and embossing folder. Also this month theme on Eileen’s blog is Birds, Nests and Eggs and even though my butterfly boy isn’t a bird (he has wings though and that kind of counts, right?) I wanted to share. So let’s get started!

I had a sheet of gel pressed cardstock leftover from the collab with Eileen Hull and Gel Press that I cut into a tag. You can find those posts HERE and HERE. I embossed the tag with the Crochet Mandala 3D Embossing Folder, lightly inked over the raised areas with a Dark Blue Chalk Ink, added two of the “stamp” dies from the Snail Mail Thinlit, along with a strip of patterned cardstock and a circle punch which I folded around the side of the tag.

Next I rolled up and distressed two pieces of patterned cardstock and “roughing up” the edges and inked. I adhered both to the top edge of the stamp die and added loops of thread and inked up cheese cloth. I used the flowers and vine from the Shadow Box Elements, flowers and leaf sprig from the Folio Page Pocket and Flower Thinlits along with gems for the center of the flowers to decorate the “logs”. I applied an Adhesive Sheet to the back of a scrap of cardstock and cut out the word “Wonder” from the Journaling Words Thinlits (retired).

I printed (the head and body in two different sizes) and fussy cut out both along with the butterfly wings and frog. I found this printable on Etsy and it’s called The Steampunk Fairy Boys and is by itKuPiLLiimaginarium. I added Foam Pop Dots to the back before placing onto the tag. I finished off by applying Stickles to the wings, cap and buttons on the boy’s jacket.

Making Plans Release Party with Eileen Hull

Hi everyone! I’m back with a project I created using Eileen Hull’s newest stamp set called Making Plans with Maker Forte! This set of stamps has so many possibilities! From cards, tags, journals and so much more! I used these stamps on the cover of an unfinished album from a tutorial that Eileen shared on one of her Facebook Lives. Anyways, let’s get started!

I placed an assortment of the label stamps onto the MISTI Stamping Tool, inked and stamped onto Cream Cardstock and various patterned scraps of cardstock. I also inked up the “dream a little” sentiment stamp and stamped onto one of the labels I had already stamped. I fussy cut all of the labels out and what I don’t use now will be used in finishing the inside…the plan is to do a part two blog post later…so stay tuned!

I also used an assortment of diecuts/thinlits to decorate the cover: Shadow Box Frames Set 02 Thinlits, Shadow Box Frames Set 01 Thinlits, Shadow Box Elements Thinlits, Mandala Thinlit, Folio Page Pocket and Flowers Thinlits and Full Size Journal Diecut. Can you spot the diecuts I used?

The label stamps are so fun to layer! I had a “partial” label diecut from the Extra Large Journal Diecut that I layered with a bookplate and the “dream a little” sentiment, used water splatter rub ons (49 and Market) and more label stamps along with several flowers, leaves gems and thread loops to finish the cover.

Be sure to stop by Eileen’s blog for more creativity from the Inspiration and Educator Teams and details on how you can purchase this stamp set. You can find the blog HERE.

Easter Greetings Junk Journal Pages

Hi everyone! I’m back with a quick project I created for my junk journal and I wanted to share with y’all.

I used lots of leftovers from other projects to create this (the page will slide under the elastic in the journal to hold in place). The base of this page(s) was a diecut I had cut in half and used in another project. I folded in half and on the front page I added diecuts, punches and a bunny printable (image found on the internet) to create a cute Easter scene.

I used stickers, flowers and leaf sprig dies from the Folio Page Pocket and Flower Thinlits, scraps of cardstocks and Pom Pom trim to decorate the edge of one of the pages to create.

The back page I created a pocket with stickers decorating the front and added a tag with patterned cardstock and a little bunny printable. This is such a great way to use up scraps and bits and pieces you have laying around!

No One Just Like You

Hi everyone! I’m back with a quirky little piece I created using Eileen Hull’s Phone Stand Diecut. This diecut is perfect for freeing up your hands if you want to watch videos from your cell phone and work on a project but I chose to create a fun inspirational piece.

If you remember a couple of months ago Eileen and Gel Press had done a collab (you can find my post HERE) and this happened to be an “extra project” from when I was playing with the Gel Press Printing Plate, Brayer and an assortment of acrylic paints.

I had used the piece of cardboard packing that had came with the diecut and cut out the phone stand. I didn’t want to mess up a piece of mat board in case the project didn’t turn out the way I had envisioned in my head. But the color combos and the piece of mesh that I used like a stencil turned out perfectly.

I put the stand together according to the direction on the packaging. Or if you are a member of Eileen Hull’s Fan Club on Facebook ( If you aren’t a member fill out the questionnaire to join) you can go back and look at past videos on how to put this and other diecuts together. Also Eileen does lives every Tuesday and Thursday.

I fussy cut one of the boys, frog and butterflies from the Steampunk Fairy Boys Printable by itKuPiLLiimaginarium out. I adhered the larger butterfly wings to the back of the boy and frog in hand before adding Foam Pop Dots to the back and placing onto the stand.

I added a sticker from my stash that I thought was appropriate for my little guy and the smaller butterfly to the “lip” of the stand. I finished by applying Stickles to the wings, both the boy’s and smaller butterfly. I also added small black gems to the coat of the boy.

If you haven’t been to Eileen Hull’s blog in a bit and need some inspiration or to see her newest set of diecuts or stamps you can find her blog HERE.

Love Postage Stamp Junk Journal Page

Hi everyone and Happy Valentine’s Day! I wanted to hop on and share a quick little junk journal page I created using leftover scraps, bits and pieces of ephemera and a printable girl that is from itKuPiLLiimaginarium. You can find the printable HERE.

I find this is a great way to use up what is laying on my desk and pushes me to get creating in the process. I love how I was able to incorporate a used postage stamp in the layout too. The “Be Mine” tag was from a swap several years ago and is a perfect place for the little girl to “sit”.

I’m slowly adding pages as I can to my junk journal. I shared pages last year on the blog and I had hoped to have the journal filled by now, but…you know…life happens. So maybe this year I’ll get it filled?
