Design Team Wednesday with Shemaine

Hello Eyelet Outlet fans! Shemaine here today sharing more holiday card inspiration. We have so many fun holiday brads available at eyeletoutlet.com. I have a few faves I love to use for creating my Christmas cards. Today I wanted to share them with you.

First is this quick and easy card I made using our Poinsettia brads.

EE Supplies: 
Poinsettia brads
  sparkle enamel dots
     clear bling

I stamped the Adornment image from Penny Black and then decorated it with ribbon, brads and bling.
Then I finished it off with a My Favorite Things sentiment.

for my next card I decided to wrap it up like a gift.


EE Supplies: 
Snowflake brads
red sparkle enamel dots
Green glitter tape

I stamped the kraft paper with a trio of mixed snowflakes and then added some matching brads and accented with enamel dots. Then I used the glitter tape to create a "brown paper packeges tied up with string" look. I finished it off with a fun tag.

Both of these cards were created in under 15 mins! 

Share with us what you are making with Eyelet Outlet products on our Facebook page!

Have a great day!

Layout inspiration with washi tape and bling

Happy November Eyelet Outlet fans!! Can you believe the holiday season is upon us. This week I'm sharing some ideas for dressing up the holiday papers for your pages.


  believe_christmas_layout 


 This was a beautiful paper out of a holiday pack I've had for awhile. I struggled with how to use it because I didn't want to cut it up, so I used my washi tape, bling, and jewels to add texture and dress 
it up.

 Happy crafting!

Design Team Thursday with Susie

Welcome Eyelet Outlet Fans!
Susie here with two new Christmas projects for you.


My first offering today is a dimensional Christmas card.  There are three white layers with dimensional tape between each.  I added our Holly Brads to the top corners and then I decided one of our Holiday Tree Brads would be really cute in this snowy scene too.  I added some of our Pearl Bling to the trees and some around the top layer as well.


Next up is a small 4.5 x 4 gift card.  I thought this would be lovely on a shimmery green package.  I stamped and colored my wreath and then added our Pearl Bling for the berries.  That's it for now, but be sure to stay tuned here at the blog. We will be back with more inspiration in just a few days!
If you have a chance, 
I would love for you to visit me at The Dies Have It.

Design Team Monday with Annette

Hello Eyelet Outlet Friends and Fans! This is Annette. It's beginning to look a lot like CHRISTMAS on the blog today. We are starting off the month of November with lots of inspiration for your Christmas cards, tags, gift card holders and other holiday projects. My first card uses the brand new Christmas Cookie brads. I used non-traditional colors like blue and gray on the card, too, but the Christmas spirit is in the cookies!

Products Used:
Card number two consists primarily of brads and bling for a sparkly, festive Christmas wreath that is both merry and bright!


Products Used:
I hope these cards give you some ideas for handmade Christmas cards. Stay tuned for more Christmas inspiration this month.
