Smooth Sailing

 Here's a fun card for a summer birthday. I started with a lovely water color of a shore line and I used an Eyelet Outlet sail boat brad from the Boat & Lighthouse brad set for the "A" in the word, "happy."

On the shore I used our sea shore brads set which includes a sand dollar and a starfish. 

See these brads and all of our beach, summer, vacation brads under the "Vacation Summer Brads tab on at Eyelet Outlet.com

Happy Summer crafting, Eyelet Outlet fans!

Keeping It Cool for Father's Day

Father's Day is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the amazing dads in our lives. This year, I decided to whisk Dad away to a relaxing beach scene with a handmade card that's as fun as a day by the ocean!

To create this tranquil getaway, I stamped the perfect sandy beach, calm water, a comfy chair, a colorful umbrella, and graceful palm trees. It really set the stage for a day of relaxation!

No beach scene is complete without the perfect accessories, and that's where Eyelet Outlet brads come in! I decorated the card with a variety of fun shapes: a cheerful Sun Brad, red Star Brad, a charming Boat Brad, cool Sunglass Brad, laid-back Flip Flop Brads, and a handy Cooler Brad. These little details bring the whole scene to life.

The sentiment truly captures the relaxed vibe: "Happy Father's Day! May your cooler stay full and your feet stay sand-free (mostly)." It's a playful wish for a perfect day.

I hope this card inspires you to create your own personalized beachy tribute for Father's Day!

Shopping List:

Flip Flop Brads
Sun & Cloud Brads
Sunglass Clouds-Color
Cooler & Soda Brads
Boat & Light House Brads

I'll see you next week but until then please visit the EO store for all your brads, washi tape, bling and paper flowers!

Happy Creating!

Celebrating America!

 

Greetings EO Fans! I hope that those of you in the US had a great Memorial Day Weekend last week. To me Memorial Day is an important day to recognize those that have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. It also reminds me that Flag Day and July 4th are not too far away. Thinking about it put me in the mood to make a patriotic card for either of these occasions. 

The slimline card sports red, white and blue and shows off many of the patriotic brads from Eyelet Outlet. A few gold and white glitter enamel dots gives it a little shine too.

SHOPPING LIST:

Boat & Light House Brads

Flag & Hat Brads

Eagle Brads

Star Brads-Red, White & Blue

Glitter Enamel Dots - Gold & White

Thanks for stopping by today. Please visit the store for all your brads, washi tape, bling and paper flowers!

Happy Creating Everyone!

The ABC's of EO... Part 3

Here are the next five cards in our Eyelet Outlet Brad Alphabet. This set takes us from L to S, with lots of adorable brads along the way.

Today's brads, allocated to each card are:

L: (Holiday) Lights, Lizards from the Reptile Brad set, the Lighthouse from the Boat and Lighthouse set, Lions from the Lion, Tiger, Zebra set, sequel to the popular Jungle Mix.

M: Mailbox from the Mail Brad set, Monkeys from the Jungle Mix, Mrs. Claus from the Santa and Mrs. Claus set, a Mood (technically an Emotion Brad) in a Mask from the CoVid-inspired Mask, Hand Sanitizer and Soap Brads, a Mower from the Lawn Mower Brad set (which is on sale!) and a stately Moose.

N: (Music) Notes, Navigation aka a Compass Brad, Navy (technically a Sailboat from the Boat and Lighthouse set with an Anchor Brad), a stack of Novels which we actually call Book Brads, and a Nutcracker.

O and P: The handsome Owl is known as a Sketched Owl (there are also Owl Brads and Winking Owls... both of which are on sale!), Ornament Brads are also on sale, and the Oven Glove is from the Cooking Brad set; the super-cute Paw Brads are one of two styles, a Party Hat is always a good idea (just ask the Birthday Sock Monkeys) and the Pipe Brad is part of a cool set that your Dad (or handy Mom) would love!

Q and R: Our Crown and Tiara Brads are fit for a Queen, the cute Quackers technically are called Duck Brads and the Quilting supplies are a combination of Thread and Scissor Brads (you need to get creative when it comes to the more challenging letters, lol!); a Rainbow from the Unicorn and Rainbow set, the Ring hails from our Wedding Brads and finally a handsome Rooster.

We're getting towards the end of the Alphabet... next week we'll wrap up with the letters S through Z!

can reveal that the EO Alphabet

will end with "Zebra"!

Float My Boat!

 

Hope you had fun at the Stampaway USA trade show last weekend.

Who picked up the new Boat & Lighthouse brad set?

If you are going to the next trade show in Schaumburg, IL

(August 20-21, 2021), be sure to stock up on our Foil Washi tape.

I love how it adds texture and glitz without bulk.

Plus, I used it to create the focal point oval shape.  

Simply lay the washi tape down on a piece of cardstock. Then use a punch (or die) to cut out your desired shape.

Anyone spy, with their little eye, another Eyelet Outlet brad?

(Hint: twinkle, twinkle!)

Enjoy your day today!

Boating Beauty!

 

Hello EO fans! Today I have a card made with a quartet of good things from the store. I cut a large stitched tag using a die in my stash and the decorated it up with the new Boat and Lighthouse brad set. I stacked a white and yellow paper flower together and used a Ship Wheel brad for the center. I use pearl bling to create some motion on this. It really reminds me of currents. It's surprising sometimes what bling can do and there's so much to choose from at the EO store! 

Do you like the water? Don't forget all the water and beach themed brads at the store. You will not be disappointed! 

SHOPPING LIST:

Boat and Lighthouse Brad Set

Ships Wheel Brad Set

Swirl Bling in Pearl

White and Yellow Paper Flowers

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you are having a great day!

Great nautical masculine card with our new brads!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a nautical masculine card for that boat-loving friend featuring our new Boat & Lighthouse Brads! I've been fixated on water/beach cards all summer long, it seems, and these new brads couldn't have hit the store at a better time! I also used our Anchor Brads along with our Wide Sky Washi Tape and Water Washi Tape which made the base for a very cool little scene! I fashioned a cliff from kraft cardstock, stamped some birds and shoreline greenery, and then added a sentiment and the brads. Easy quick card!

 
I embellished the inside panel with a strip of Red Skinny Washi Tape and a strip of blue cardstock, stamped the sentiment in blue ink, and layered the panel on the blue cardstock.

Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

You Float My Boat

We added to our nautical themed collection this summer! You'll love the new sailboat brads and light house brads that are part of the summer release.  

I created a shaker card with a bottle from the Cricut image library and the slice tool in Cricut Design Space.  In addition to the sailboat inside the bottle, there's also some Eyelet Outlet sequins.  I used the shell mix sequins and a few of the hearts sequins.  The light house brad was perfect near the sentiment of my card and the anchor brad was the perfect touch in the center of the twine.  

I'm sure the new Boat and lighthouse brads will float your boat, too!

 

Happy Tide=ings

Smooth Sailing

The new Eyelet Outlet Boat and Lighthouse Brads could not be more appealing, and I (Lauren) can think of so many ways to use them! For example, how about a ship... or in this case a sailboat, lol... in a bottle?

I made a little background from paper scraps to represent sky, sea, sand and a bit of a cliff. Then I stamped my mason jar on top in Archival ink and cut it out. Inside the jar, I added a Boat and a Lighthouse Brad as well as the Sun from our Sun and Cloud set; to the foreground of the card I affixed one each of the three styles of Shell Brads. My sticker sentiment wishes the recipient, "Smooth Sailing Ahead"... and I think we could all use more of that, right?!
