Caroling Christmas Easel Card

We are doing another cute Christmas card this week.  Although I have quite a few cards I send out to friends and family, I always try to make a different card for each person.  Now that I have Eyelet Outlet in my life, it is so easy to make a simple card like this, look like I spent hours on it.

I layered the front of this easel card in red and green cardstock and embossed the red cardstock with a festive, almost embroidered look. I added Black Bling to the embossing as look like the little centers of flowers.

 

The large sentiment is die cut from green glitter foam with a white shadow layer underneath.

 

In the upper corner, is a beautiful, sparkly snowflake from the Snowflake Bling and in the bottom corner are two of the cutest little carolers from the Caroler Brads.

 

Once you open the card, you will see the sparkle from the Black Glitter Washi Tape and the two beautiful holiday Bell Brads that offset the cute sentiment on the inside.   

As easy as this card was to make, it looks like it took a long time. By adding cute embellishments, you can step up your card making game, too!



Have a wonderful week and always be STRATE-UP CRAFTY!

Have YoursELF A Merry Christmas!

Happy Friday, friends!  Do you make your own holiday cards to send or do you buy them?  I don't know about you, but I feel like Christmas is coming WAY too fast!   

I am scrambling to get my holiday cards finished, so I decided to create a fun center-step card for one of my favorite co-workers! 
This fun-fold was perfect to use several fun embellishments!  On the center panel, behind the elves, I wanted some sparkly bling, so I used the beautiful 1/2" Snowflake Bling.  I added the Snowflake Brads to the side panels, and what elf card would be complete without the Elf Brads!  They were perfect to go on either side of the sentiment. 
In case you are unfamiliar with this fun-fold, it is free-standing, and this is what it looks like from the side.  You can also see how the inside of the card is decorated. 
I hope that you will leave a comment and share about your holiday cards!  If you make your own, do you mass produce the same card for everyone, or do you create individual cards?

Bring On the Bling!

It's no secret that I (Lauren) looooove Eyelet Outlet Bling... the fancier the better! But this is the first time I've used it to create a compound mandala shape. Pretty sure it will not be the last, however.


I started with an XL (2") Snowflake in the center of my 6" square pan pastel gelprint. At the end of each "arm" of the snowflake, I added one Heart Jewel Bling, facing outwards. Then I placed a smaller 1.5" Snowflake between each pair of hearts, to be like a second round of arms. Finally I added a clear Teardrop Gem at the top of each heart. Et voila!


Remember when I said I was pretty sure you'll see this idea revisited? Well I take it back. Because I'm not pretty sure... I'm positive!

would happily play with 
bling all day long.
(and sometimes does!)

3...2...1...HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 In a few days, we'll be counting down the clock to the new year, 2020.  It's a time of celebration, fireworks, hope, family, friends, and setting resolutions for the year to come.   




Today's shadow box card entitled "3...2...1...HAPPY NEW YEAR" captures some of those feelings with Eyelet Outlet's classic cars and red truck perched on a hill watching the fireworks emphasized with bling strips.  The fence features Eyelet Outlet's ladybug, ant, and bright flowers while the Eyelet Outlet silver glitter enamel dots are a finishing touch adorning the happy new year sign at the top of the card.

The floating 2020 sign is accomplished through the use of  heavyweight acetate and matches the fence made of silver glitter paper.  The box card is lined with fireworks paper and is created from a Stamps of Life die.  A hand-written note or sentiment stamp can be included on the back of the shadow box card.

This card will bring a smile to anyone young or old celebrating the new year  Head on over to the Eyelet Outlet site for the items you can include in your 2020 card.
