Trick or Treat?!

  We've been celebrating the new Eyelet Outlet July 2024 Brads which arrived just in time for Christmas in July; I'm not sure "Halloween in July" is a thing (yet!) but we've also got fun and festive Candy Corn and Black Cat brads, featured on this fun Trick or Treat card along with an adorable Bat Brad.

The background is framed with bold orange and black Halloween Dot Washi Tape.

In addition to Candy Corn and Black Cat brads, the brand new July Release also includes colorful Retro Holiday Trees, and gorgeous vintage-inspired Angel Brads. See them all (and lots more!) in the Eyelet Outlet Online Store.

Let's Bake Memories!

 It's July and that means card makers have a great excuse to celebrate the holidays six months early. Like many card makers, I love making holiday and Christmas cards. Any excuse is a good excuse for me! Eyelet Outlet makes it easy with so many holiday brads and washi tapes. 

Two new holiday brads have been added to the store. They are delightful Retro Tree Brads and Angel Brads. Aren't they precious! The first thing that came to mind when I saw the tree brads was cookies. I knew immediately I would make the card I'm sharing with you today.

I found the cookie pan die pattern in Cricut Design Space. Once I constructed it, I attached Gingerbread Brads and the new Retro Tree Brads. This was glued on the card at an angle. I made the sentiment and glued that to the card too. Then I added Canister Brads, Mixer and Cup Brads, the new Angel Brads, and the spoon comes from the Baking Brads Set.

There is a lot on this card but I think it all works together well. It's so cheerful and I hope it brings a smile to you. 

SHOPPING LIST:

**NEW** Angel Brads

Hang In ThereI

I'm so crazy about these new cat brads at Eyelet Outlet!  I couldn't wait to start creating with them!

I created this window with curtains in Cricut Design Space and added the cat brads climbing on the window blinds.  If you are a Cricut crafter, too, I've shared the file for this card on my Cricut Profile.  Here's a link to the project. 

See all of the newly released brads at Eyelet Outlet by clicking on the New Brads 2024 tab on our website and follow us in the coming weeks as the Design Team inspires you with projects!

Boo! Candy Corn and Cats

 I know it's only July but as card makers, we tend to think ahead for the next season. Such is the case for today's Halloween themed card. I am so excited to have two new brads available in the newest release from Eyelet Outlet. The first is Candy Corn Brads. They are a great size and true to the colors of that traditional candy treat. Cats Brads - Black are also new. They fit wonderfully in Halloween cards but can also have year long application. The cats have either white or neon green eyes so I feel that the green eyed cats are perfect for the spooky season and the white eyes are for year around use.

In this card, I have the cats peaking around the edge of the pumpkin and handing out at the opening. The standing cat also works nicely at the base. Two of the peaking cat styles are not full bodies which make it very handy to get the look of them peaking without having to hide the full body. This card also features the Bat Brads and Halloween Washi-Hat and Broom. 

The Candy Corn Brads stack nicely with the Peppermint Candy Brads. Although you might think these are for winter holidays, the purple and yellow peppermints are actually perfect colors for Halloween too! The stacked look of the brads, including the cat work really well on the Halloween Pumpkin which I cut from Cricut Design Space. Overall, this was a quick card to put together, especially when the brads and washi tape do most of the work!

Vintage Christmas Angels

Today I have another version of the Vintage Christmas card I shared with you last week.  This little story book from KB and Friends Etsy shop took me back to Little Golden Books that my mom would read to me. I added Eyelet Outlet Gold Foil Star washi tape to the edge and since this little book cover had cherubs on the front, it was the perfect opportunity to introduce you to Eyelet Outlet's brand new cherub brads!

The cherubs are hanging some holly across the top of the card and I added a poinsettia brad to the greenery and some red gems.

The vintage children around the Christmas tree are Cricut images and I added some die cut greenery with Eyelet Outlet ornament brads and finished off with a gift brad.

Stay tuned friends, we're rolling out more new products this week and know you'll want to add them to your cart when you shop Eyelet Outlet!

 

TREE-Mendous!

 This card features a cluster of said Retro Trees layered over Snowy Trees for a feeling of depth, creating a little forest glade in which the vintage-inspired deer from our Santa and Deer set feels right at home. The background consists of neatly aligned strips of Holly Jolly Washi in traditional red and green.

Shopping List:

Retro Trees

A Day Full of Treats

Hi everyone! I hope you have been enjoying eh weekend. Today my card has gone to the dogs! If you like dogs, I think you will like this one.

I started with a stamped image of a row of dog houses. After coloring and cutting it out, I created a base to put it on made with Wood Washi Tape. This is a mini-slimline card so I cut a background in light blue and ran it through an embossing folder. Then I used some ink to make the embossed design pop out a little more. I glued the wood and houses to it and then began to add all the dog-gone goodness with brads. I used four different sets for this. See below for the links of all the products used.

SHOPPING LIST:

Dog Brads (dog heads) 

Puppy Brads

Paw Brads

Kennel Mix Brads (dish, house & bone)

Wood Washi Tape

Old Fashioned Christmas

I love vintage and retro looking images and when I saw these holiday story book covers that look like Little Golden Books in KB and Friends Etsy shop, I knew right away I'd need to use them in a Christmas project.  

I added strips of Eyelet Outlet's foil gold star washi tape to the edges of the books to really give them the look of a Little Golden Book.  Vintage children are Cricut images and then I added some amazing Eyelet Outlet brads.  The Santa and deer brads have a super vintage look to them, so they were perfect for this project!  Some snowy tree brads and snow flake brads and a lovely little gift brad complete the project.  

Thanks for stopping in today and come back soon as we're getting ready to roll out some new products that you won't want to miss!

Beach, Please!

Life IS better at the beach and summery cards ARE better with Eyelet Outlet Summer Vacation beachy brads! Both of these beachy keen cards feature our Shell Corner Brads and have twine accents strung through a trio of colorful old school 1/8" Round Eyelets; with mats of Shell Washi and extra wide Sky Tape.

The first card also features both shapes from our Seagull Brad Set as well as both Sun and Cloud from that set. 

The second card has a pair of Flip Flops, a Sandcastle and a white Anchor Brad... the latter is masquerading as postage.

Un-Cone-Ditional Love

Hello everyone! As hot as it's been, ice cream has been a perfect cool treat. Today's card is a positive message for a child, friend or anyone you know that may have had some bad luck or has done something they're not proud of lately. This card boldly proclaims that they are love unconditionally in a positive and colorful way.

To begin this card, I stamped, colored, and cut out the cone image with watercolor markers. I also stamped the sentiment and cut that into a strip. I used patterned papers to create a location for the cone and the blank area of my card. The card base is made out of patterned cardstock which reminded me a little of melted ice cream.

To make this card extra special, I added three Ice Cream Brads. The Water Splat Brads were added because it reminded me of drops of melted ice cream but also they add movement to the card. Finally, I added one Fresh Flowers Bright Brads to the ice cream cone. She's extra cute with the flower in her "hair." Though you can't see it in the photo, I also added some glitter pen to the ice cream on the top and on the melted parts for some extra shine. 

 SHOPPING LIST:

Ice Cream Brads
