I've been trying to improve my sewing skills lately. I'm not sewing every day, but I'm definitely sewing more often! So here's a little card for other sewing enthusiasts.
What's cuter than mice who can sew? Mice who can sew and are surrounded by Eyelet Outlet Thread Brads, Dressform and Dress Brads... with accents of Bright Stitched Flower Brads, of course!
Time marches on... and welcome March, spring, and Easter celebrations!
I am enjoying staying more organized and keeping on track in 2024. I am finding joy in creating colorful planner pages to work with too!
I began with adding my Happy Easter and spring stamps! Next, I added green grass border washi tape along the bottom with butterfly washi and daisy washi tape across the top. Lastly, I embellished with various spring themed brads!
I hope this inspires you to stay on track in organization and paper planning in 2024! Thank you so much for stopping by! Don't forget to shop at Eyelet Outlet for all your crafting needs!

Sometimes
it's nice to send a friend a card for no other reason other than just to say hello, to brighten their day and
let them know you are thinking of them. This week's creation is a card that
does just that.
I created the beautiful peacock using a die and individually cut and placed the five different colors within the peacock feathers in the plume. I added to the feathers for sparkle and gave the peacock a beautiful sparkling Purple Bling eye. In the corners oBlue Bling the framed peacock are two yellow Butterfly Corner Brads to center the piece.

If, like me (Lauren) you enjoy watching the birds at your backyard feeder, you will have noticed quite a bit of mealtime chatter, and you may have wondered what it's all about. With the help of our handsome Eyelet Outlet Bluebird and Robin Brads and some fun speech bubbles, here is my fanciful idea of what those birds are saying to each other. Card backgrounds made from Wide Sky Washi, Wood Tape and Music Note Washi Tape.
Aren't these sweet little winter clad gals adorable? I think so! And, they are beating the winter blues with coffee and friendship!
I started my card by creating a cloudy, wintery background with distress inks. I then added a strip of sparkling white glitter washi for snow. I fussy cut my sweet winter girls and placed them on the right side. Next, I stamped my greeting directly on the frames washi and added to my layout! What's a fun gathering of friends without coffee or bubble tea? So, I added the coffee cup brads and layered on bubble tea washi lined cardstock! I hope you enjoy!

This week's creation is different than anything I've made in the past. I wanted to make some cards, but I wanted them to be different. It just so happened that I got some extra fabric from a friend yesterday and decided to incorporate the different fabrics into my cards while using Eyelet Outlet’s embellishments to enhance them.
I created six different rosettes out of the different fabrics and added matching bling or matching brads to the center of each rosette. From there, I was able to go in any direction I wanted as far on how to use the rosettes.
I started with the cards…one card is based around the Colored Daisy brads with a sunny yellow daisy in the middle of the rosette, a pink daisy around the sentiment, Gold Glitter Washi tape and two Yellow Stippled Jewel Brads in the corners.
The second card is a basic black and white card that is embellished with many Black Stippled Jewel Blings, some corners off of the Black Swirl Bling and a large Black faceted Jewel Bling in the center of the rosette.
The third card I created
is a fun, everyday card with the rosette being made from fabric that had a farm
theme.
I had to add the bright red Truck Brad to the middle. They just looked like they were made to go together. Eyelet Outlet has some many cute choices, you will find something that will match whatever theme you are going for.
Eyelet Outlets embellishments always jazz up your creations but as you can see here, they can also be the center of your creations without being overstated. LOVE.
Have a wonderful week
and always be STRATE-UP CRAFTY!

Spring is just around the corner and I'm thinking about flowers! Eyelet Outlet has paper flowers in every color that will really make your spring projects stand out. Today I've filled a pocket of my favorite blue jeans with some yellow ones - and a few green ones serve as leaves.
I just love the versatility of Eyelet Outlet products and was exited to create a wintery Valentine themed postage collage! In staying with a winter theme, I used the snowman couple brads as my focus and added white glitter washi tape for snow and a red enamel heart. Next, I stamped "you melt my heart" sentiment as well as some script, postage lines, and hearts.
I filled in my other postage stamp spaces with Happy Valentine's Day glitter washi, wintery glitter tall tree washi tape, and vintage washi tape! I added a few red rose brads to finish off my card!
And since I was having so much fun! I decided to decorate my envelope too! I added the skinny red and white washi tape and some Valentine themed stamps to finish off my project! I hope you enjoy! What a fun way to play with a variety of Eyelet Outlet washi tapes, brads and more!

Spring is coming and my card today looks forward to green grass and warmer days. For this card, I designed a scene with Cricut Design Space to include a bare tree, clouds, the Hello sentiment and the friend banner. Before adding these items, I prepared the background with a stencil and blue inks. I added clouds, a heat embossed banner, and Grass Washi Tape. Then I placed all the other items and added a Colored Daisy Brad, Butterfly Brads, a Bluebird Brad, and Rabbit Brads. Once done, I added faux white stitches on the sentiment and blue dots to highlight the clouds behind the tree. I like the pops of bright colors here and there in the card.
Sometimes you just need to be reminded that You
Are Enough. Making a simple card with some thought out well wishes could be
just the perfect thing that somebody needs to read that day. I created this
card with that thought in mind, hoping it will remind you that ‘You Are Enough’.
I used a method called quilling to create the cherry blossom petals. Quilling takes time and patience, and many (like me) find it extremely relaxing and cathartic. You take tiny strips of paper and roll them into circles and form them into a shape.
As you can see, each one of the blooms have five individually quilled petals formed in a teardrop shape with an Eyelet Outlet Pearl from the Multi-Sized Bling Sheets in light pink and pink adorning the center of each. Cherry blossoms always seem to attract the most beautiful flying creatures, so I added three fluttering dragonflies from the Dragonfly Brads.
And perching on the top of the cherry blossom tree is a beautiful cardinal from the Cardinal Profile Brads reminding you that you are never alone and that ‘You Are Enough’.
