Maybe the most fun you can have with our Eyelet Outlet Wildlife Brads is to build little scenes for them to inhabit. This trio of A1 cards all have stamped trees and sponged skies, with Sun and Cloud Brads to light the way and a flurry of Snowflake Sequins to set the season. Pine Tree Brads and Snowy Pines add to the foliage, then the critters arrive: a Prancing Deer, a handsome Moose, plus mama and baby Bear Brads. Two washi tape mats, of Glitter Blue Tape and Wide Wood Washi frame the designs.
There are Eyelet Outlet Animals for every taste, including Dinosaurs, Farm Animals, Reptiles, Cats and Dogs, Fish and Crustaceans, Jungle Animals, Birds, Bugs and Critters of all kinds!
A fun Christmas season tradition of ours is to have an Advent calendar! This year, I thought it would be fun to have an envelope countdown! Each day counting down to Christmas you get to open an envelope! You could be treated to a gift card for a coffee or treat or it could be a "coupon" for a fun, family outing!
In this envelope, you could add a "coupon" to go caroling to a nursing home or in your neighborhood. Another idea would be to drive through a neighborhood that has a lot of holiday lights on display. Crank up the Christmas music and enjoy hot cocoa as you drive around!
Oh, I had so much fun creating this envelope! This one would be perfect for a "coupon" to visit a Christmas tree farm to select your tree! I hope you are inspired to create your own countdown envelopes to make time for memory making this holiday season! Extra tip: I would add my date numbers after planning which night is best for what treat or event!

Do you give a lot of gift cards over the holidays? I know I do so I wanted to make a cute Christmas card that is also a gift card holder and after adding some embellishments from Eyelet Outlet, they are just extra special now.
The front of the card is made with quite a few EO embellishments. The background is Green Glitter Washi Tape with Silver Blocks Glitter Washi Tape layered on top. That is where I built the Christmas scene. The felt Rudolph is wearing an adorable Santa Hat Brad and has several Brown Jewels as little spots on his back. He also has a cute Black Pearl eye and of course, a large Red Cut Jewel Bling for his nose.
On the left side of the card, I embossed a Christmas
tree and added two of the large Red Jewel Bling for
sparkle.
The right side has the Ho Ho Washi Tape
lining the top and bottom along with four of the Holiday Light
Brads in each corner. To finish off the inside, I added a simple Merry Christmas
sticker sentiment and added several of the Red Jewel Bling
as the holly berries.
Thanks to all the easy extras I added to this card, I think anyone would just love to get it…even without a gift card…lol

I absolutely love gift wrapping! I especially love topping my gifts with paper rosettes and Eyelet Outlet offers so many wonderful products to place in the center of your rosettes. Today I'm bringing you a few of my recent gift wrapping projects.
I created these diamond shaped rosettes with my Cricut Maker. They are from the Scoring Wheel Rosettes image set. I used red stippled jewel brads with gold edges for the center of the rosettes. See all of our gorgeous jeweled brads here! I attached them with a bit of hot glue into the center of the rosette. I used a gold elastic cord to attach them to my gift.
On the day before the American Thanksgiving holiday, what could be more fitting than a simple card which sums up the day. The "THANKS" portion of the sentiment is diecut from beautiful extra-wide autumn Leaf Washi, studded with Leaf Brads, Mini Leaf Brads and the yellow flowers from our Colored Daisy set. The background is made of super-wide Wood Tape, framed with Brick Washi.
Wishing the happiest and healthiest of holidays to all who are celebrating!
Celebrate the Reason for the Season!
I enjoy creating Christmas cards and love this slimline card idea! I created a card base using various trees for my background and added distress inks for shading. I then added a strip of the Cardinal Holly Washi tape mounted on cardstock. I cut and distressed my circle and added my sentiment, embellishing with the beautiful, detailed Cardinal brads and mounted with foam tape. Lastly, I added my creation on cardstock lined with the red and shite stripe washi.

It's the last weekend before Thanksgiving. If you are in the United States, most of you are thinking about gatherings centering around family with a harvest of bounty, the Thanksgiving Feast! I have been busy shopping and prepping for the day. How about you?
Today I've combined a die cut image with several EO brads and a pumpkin washi tape. It's pretty simple to enhance die cuts with brads that fit the theme. I've used many here on the pumpkin flower scene.
To make the card, I start by cutting the die cuts out of white cardstock. Then I color the shapes with Copic markers. You can shade your die cuts this way. I also enhanced a yellow paper flower with a marker. To make the background, I covered a piece of cardstock with pumpkin washi tape and then cut it and a shadow layer out with scalloped dies.
Once all the cuts were ready, I began to piece the die cuts and I placed many accent brads amongst the die cuts. I included sunflowers, leaves, pumpkin, acorn, scarecrow, and butterflies.
So, over the last few weeks, I’ve been
creating a bunch of Thanksgiving table decorations, but the table isn’t the only
place you can decorate. I went through
my stash of wood shapes and found this cute pumpkin and knew I must transform
it to become part of this year’s holiday celebration!
I painted the base
white and then lined it with some pumpkin washi tape. I realized that it was discontinued
after I finished making it so I do not have a link to share...sorry :( But there are so many other cute Washi Tapes to choose from, you won't even miss it. I then placed some matching orange cardstock
in the middle so my saying would pop.
To create the words “Hello
Pumpkin”, I lined a piece of paper with the Black and
White Dots Washi Tape and then used some dies to cut out the letters and
place them on the pumpkin. How cool is that?!?! Die cutting washi tape!!! Just
think of the possibilities.
I finished my pumpkin
off with some Orange
Pearl Bling, Orange
Jewel Bling for the outline, and three of the Pumpkin brads. I
added a paper twine ribbon so I can hang this cutie up! I think I’m going to be hanging it up on the
outside of my craft room door.
Thank you Eyelet Outlet for helping me transform
a plain wooden pumpkin into this cute Thanksgiving decoration.
Have a wonderful week
and always be STRATE-UP CRAFTY!

The joys of Autumn in the Northeast include colorful foliage, crisp cold days and plenty of nuts and seeds for our furry friends to gather. This card sums up Fall and celebrates our new Acorn and Squirrel Brads, a gorgeous Sunflower, a Pumpkin and a bouquet of Leaf Brads.
Do you have your December Calendar and bucket list ready to go?
Who’s ready for another Thanksgiving table decoration? For this week’s creation, I made Turkey Place cards. These are perfect for showing everyone where to sit and for a sweet keepsake for each guest.
I made three different place cards and with Eyelet Outlet’s assistance, was able
to make each one as cute as the next.
The first place card is for Sean. His is made by using the Groovy Washi Tape, black Pearl Bling for the turkey eyes, red Jewel Bling for his body and finished off with a rustic Pinecone Brad.
The last place card is for Ms. Ryley Ann. Her turkey has black Pearl Bling for eyes, orange Jewel Bling on the body and highlighted with a cute little Pumpkin Brad.
Place cards are super easy to make and are fun little gifts to give your guests. All you need is a little cardstock, scissors, glue and the cutest embellishments from Eyelet Outlet!
More Thanksgiving décor next week!!!!
Have a wonderful week
and always be STRATE-UP CRAFTY!
