Eileen Hull Inspiration Team: Easy 8 by 10 Craft Project

Gnome-Stampendous-Eileen-Hull-CraftI am so excited that this month Eileen Hull is featuring the cutest new product from Stampendous!  Our team got to play with the “Fran’s Clear Stamp & Dies” this month.

Here is a link to the set called the Cottage Home Perfectly Clear Stamps and Dies Set (9 pieces):  http://www.stampendous.com/products-page/cottage-home-clear-stamps-and-dies/

It was so fun to see how the team made these new sets into amazing projects.  As always, I did my best to bring the wow factor with my “Easy 8 by 10 Craft Portrait” – I plan to put it in a frame and set it on my kitchen nook.   I will be able to enjoy this craft for all of March now!

Here is my supplies list:

  • Stampendous Cottage Home Perfectly Clear Stamps and Dies Set (9 pieces):  Retail $16.99
  • Sizzix Big Shot
  • Sizzix Bigz Die Borders & Hydrangeas by Eileen Hull Designs:  Retail:  $19.99
  • Card stock in yellow, white, green and pink
  • Floral scrapbook papers (3 designs)
  • Black stamp ink pad
  • 8 by 10 frame in white

Step 1:  I began by die cutting the cottage homes and the hydrangeas, and I also stamped and hand cut the flowers, doors, steps and windows of the homes.  There are so many cool possibilities with this stamping set.

Step 2:  I then cut down my YELLOW and WHITE PAPERS to serve as the background for my die cuts.  The YELLOW piece was cut to 8 by 10 and the WHITE piece was cut to about – 6 by 9.  You can then adhere (double-sided scrapbook adhesive is good) the YELLOW and WHITE paper pieces.

Step 3:  Once you have the background papers, you can now adhere the cottage homes.  I had pre-placed the homes in the color and line up and they slightly overlap – they sure are cozy neighbors is what I thought!  Once I have the placement, I think used double-sided adhesive to place them onto the white paper.   I then added the stamped and hand cut pieces of paper onto the houses.  I also added the hydrangea pieces to the roof of the middle home.

Step 4:  After the pieces were all adhered, I put this fun 8 by 10 portrait into a basic white frame.   This is a very cool project that could easily transition for all seasons and be great for home decor, gift tags and cards!

TIP FOR MOTHERSHIP SCRAPBOOK GAL EVENT ATTENDEES:  I am planning to preparing a card kit with this die cut for my upcoming Crafternoon event on Sunday, March 6th (for Crafternoon tickets: click here).

I hope you will check out the blogs of my team members to see their ideas too:
