Ladybug Thanks!
What is black and white and red all over?
A lady bug thank you card featuring the
Ladybug and Mini Ladybug Brads from Eyelet Outlet!
The Black glitter washi tape gives it a little extra zing!
Now, it's your turn to tell me a joke.

Halloween Fun!
I used two skinny glitter washi tapes on either side of the Halloween Washi Tape. I embossed a piece of gold cardstock with a web embossing folder and used a little gilding wax to add some shine. The Mini Spider brads go perfectly on the embossed webs and they blend in nicely with the web and spider sticker. A Ghost Brad and Green Pearl Bling are the finishing touches.

Lets Go to the Movies on Your Birthday!
Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a super fun birthday popcorn machine box card created with my Scan N Cut featuring our Popcorn & Ticket Brads and Red Jewel Bling! If you know me, you know that box cards are my absolute favorite fun fold and these brads and bling were just the 'ticket!' My Scan N Cut lives in a cabinet to keep it from getting dusty, and when I bring it out, I typically cut multiple files which keep me busy assembling for weeks to come. ;)
I cut the box card base from gold cardstock, and all the elements from red, white and silver cardstock with a bit of red patterned paper. I assembled the card and added a stamped sentiment, a Ticket Brad and Red Jewel Bling.
I added an additional sentiment and a Popcorn Brad to the back of the card on the signature panel.
Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

Coffee Bean Balloons??!?!?
Here is a card that's 100% inspired by Sarah Galli Jimenez, who posted two brilliant coffee bean balloon cards in our Eyelet Outlet Fan Group on Facebook and I (Lauren) loved them so much, I had to try to make my own slimline version!
I arranged (but didn't attach) the balloon bouquet of Coffee Bean Brads, mixed with Heart Brads in white and pink, so that I could lightly pencil in the balloon strings and machine stitch over them, before affixing the brads. I stamped and colored Riley and Co's Midge with Coffee (in Ground Espresso Distress Archival, obviously!) and added a Coffee Cup Brad over the mug that's in the original image; the sentiment is from Wendy Vecchi's Birthday Bash Stamp, Stencil and Die set. Finally, I made a super-fun background paper by lining up strips of Eyelet Outlet Donut Tape on plain white cardstock and used it to frame up the panel.

Set of Butterfly Notelets
Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a pretty set of six 'hello' notelets featuring our oh-so-gorgeous Butterfly & Bird Cage Wide Washi Tape and Butterfly Brads, along with our Copper Foil Washi Tape and Clear Jewel Bling. These were super easy and look so elegant!
I used pre-made 3-1/2" x 5" note cards and envelopes. I covered six small squares with Butterfly & Bird Cage Wide Washi Tape, cut them with a postage stamps die, then layered each one on a slightly larger brown cardstock square. I cut six more squares from light brown cardstock, covered the edges with Copper Foil Washi Tape, and adhered a layered square to each one. I cut six strips from the light brown cardstock, added the copper washi tape, and adhered one strip to each card base. I added a Butterfly Brad to each square and then adhered them to the card bases. I stamped 'hello' in brown ink on each card and added Clear Jewel Bling that I colored with a brown alcohol marker. I left the inside of each blank, as these are notelets.
Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

Halloween Treat Box
Every Halloween I create a special treat for my grandchildren and great nieces and nephews. This year I've decided to make them some darling little skeleton treats that I found on the "Just Add Confetti." I thought they needed a cute treat box, so here's what I came up with.

Summer Vibes
Summer in New Jersey can be pretty hot and very humid, but it's still my (Lauren's) favorite season, and here's a card that celebrates some of my favorite summer treats, in Eyelet Outlet Brad form!
I used a favorite set of bold alphabet stencils and six sizzling shades of Distress Ink (Worn Lipstick, Mermaid Lagoon, Spiced Marmalade, Tumbled Glass, Mustard Seed and Twisted Citron to be precise) to write the word, "Summer" across my slimline-sized panel. I matted the whole thing on a piece of white cardstock covered in strips of Color Wheel Washi, then added a nice selection of brads, including: Beach Umbrella, Flip Flop Brads, Mini Ladybug, Cocktail Brads, Mini Emotion, Tall Palm, Sandcastle, Flamingo, Colored Daisy Brads, Mini Bees, Ice Cream, Sun and Pastel Sunglass Brads. I hope whatever your favorite Summer Vibes might be, that you'll enjoy a few of them today!

Americana!

What's the Scoop?
What's your favorite summer treat? For me, it's an ice cream cone. This one is decorated with a Sunglass brad and a Cherry brad. As accents I added Ice Cream brads. It looks super yummy doesn't it?
I made the pastel background with chalk paint and used Zig Zag Washi Tape - Pink and Purple as a border. I stamped the sentiment and used a scissor to hand cut the speech bubble.
I enjoyed making this simple but cute card using Eyelet Outlet brads and washi tape. The only bad thing is that now I'm hungry!

Unicorn and Rainbow Inspiration!
Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a sweet inspirational card featuring our Unicorn & Rainbow Brads, Striped Washi Tape and Clear Jewel Bling! I sure do love me some bright rainbow colors, and this was definitely a fun one! This washi tape sure makes a striking background! ;)
I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base from white cardstock along with a layering panel that I covered with Striped Washi Tape and narrow strips of white cardstock, and adhered to the card base. I cut stitched scallop rectangles from white and dark purple cardstock and layered them together. I stamped the unicorn sentiment in pink ink, added Unicorn & Rainbow Brads along with Clear Jewel Bling, and adhered the piece to the background.
I cut the inside panel from white cardstock and embellished it with strips of Striped Washi Tape, dark purple and white cardstock, then stamped the sentiment in pink ink and layered the panel on the dark purple cardstock.
Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

Autum Blessings Shaker Card
I really like making shaker cards and especially like adding Eyelet Outlet brads to the mix! Today I've created a window scene and have an Eyelet Outlet rake brad leaned against the tree.
I've used Eyelet Outlet round sequins in orange, yellow and copper to simulate the leaves falling from the tree. Below the window I added an Eyelet Outlet leaf brad near the sentiment.
We'd love to see how you've used Eyelet Outlet sequins in your projects! Pay us a visit on our Eyelet Outlet Fans Facebook Group and show us your creativity!

Rainy Day Cheer!
This card was created by water coloring a rain scene colorfully and putting it behind a window pane die cut. Clouds were stenciled on with Distress Oxide inks. Before I framed the main panel, I placed three of the new dragonflies on the front. I placed many blue teardrop gems on the front and also behind the window pain on the umbrella scene. Did you know the tear drop bling comes in clear, blue and pearl? So many options in the pretty tear drop shape! I love how a few touches from Eyelet Outlet can amp up a scene and make it really special.
Thanks for stopping by today. Don't forget to take a trip over to the store. There's always lots of good discounts to be found and Tony will make sure your shipment gets sent right away so you don't have to miss a beat in your card or scrapbooking projects.

A fun thank you for that Jack of all trades!
Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a fun thank you card for that guy (or gal) who just seems to be a jack of all trades and can fix or do anything! Gotta love the matching stamps, brads and washi tape! My dad was a jack of all trades type and it's such a blessing to have someone in our lives nowadays with those same capabilities!
I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base and a strip from white cardstock along with a layering panel from black cardstock. I covered the strip of white cardstock with Playing Card Washi Tape. Using the Playing Card Clear Stamps, I stamped the sentiment on a white cardstock scrap, cut it with a stitched circle die, and layered it on a slightly larger red cardstock stitched circle die cut. I adhered the strip to the black cardstock panel and then adhered the circular element. I affixed one Playing Card Brad to the center of the circular element, three more Playing Card Brads across the top of the black cardstock panel, and adhered the panel to the card base. The finishing touch was adding Red Jewel Bling.
I embellished the inside panel with strips of Playing Card Washi Tape and black cardstock, stamped the sentiment in black ink, and layered the panel on red cardstock.
