Unicorn Sanity

Where do card ideas come from? EVERYWHERE! In this case, a fun meme from social media became a card featuring adorable Eyelet Outlet Unicorn and Rainbow Brads, set against a frame of Pink Foil Tape and a background made by neatly lining up strips of Multi Color Dot Washi on the diagonal.

The sentiment is rendered in a free font called Jolly Dream from dafont.com, printed on plain old white cardstock... (with sufficient space left for unicorns, of course) ...then augmented with the brads. If you can dream up a card idea, the Eyelet Outlet Store almost certainly has the brads and tapes to make it work!

Sweet as Cherries

 

Still preparing for Valentines Day and almost have all my cards

to send to the senior living center. This is a cute one featuring 

the fabulous cherry brads from Eyelet Outlet. I had the stamp from

 Unity Stamps and they worked great with the embellishments.

I used a circular card and placed multi dot washi paper in the 

background. I also had these fun heart sticky gems

from Eyelet Outlet. They add a great

sparkly touch.

Here is your shopping list from Eyelet Outlet:

Looking forward to seeing you again next week - keep creating!

...a simple hello

I love extras. Extra bling. Extra sparkle. Extra fries…haha. If it’s in my craft room, I want to add it to whatever I am creating. Who here is with me??✋

But there are those times, although rare, that I just feel like creating something simple, understated yet still reflects a little spark of me.

For this week’s creation, I only used three different embellishments from Eyelet Outlet and look how fabulous this card turned out!

I cut a piece of plain white cardstock and spaced some fun and colorful washi tape on top.  I found exactly what I was hoping for with the Multi-Color Dot Washi Tape. I then used a die to cut out the inner rectangle and the flower cut out and pop dotted them on top of the washi card base.  Next, I used the same flower die but three sizes smaller and cut out the center flower and pop dotted that on as well. After that, I found the section of the washi tape that matched up with where the flower was placed, and I put the corresponding strip of washi take on. Easy Peesy!

To finish it off, I die cut the letters to spell out hello, added a large Blue Enamel Dot and several Pearl Bling in Green, Pink, and Purple.

A very simple card to make yet very pretty and will make the recipient smile, for sure!
