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!

Brewing Up a Happy Halloween!

Hi everyone and happy Sunday! Today I have a card that's toad-ally fun! Lots of people tell me they don't like scary Halloween. This one is nothing but cute and cuddly - or as much as a toad can be in his cauldron bath tub!

I started this project by stamping and coloring the frog and the cauldron and then I fussy cut it out. I cut the orange and purple ovals using dies and arranged the pieces on them. Then I added the faucet, frog and soap brads to further set the scene. I used Swirl Bling and Fancy Long Pearl & Jewel Bling to add smoke and bubbles. Once the rest of the mats were in place, I added a web sticker and a Mini Spider Brad dangling off the corner web.

SHOPPING LIST:

Frog Mix Brads

Pipe Set Brads

Mini Spider Brads

Mask, Hand Sanitizer & Soap Brads

Purple Swirl Bling

Fancy Long Pearl and Jewel Bling

Thanks for taking the time to stop by today. I hope I inspired you to get creative with your Halloween stamps and Eyelet Outlet embellishments. Stop by the EO Store and get the cutest things to make your cards extra special.

Happy Creating Everyone!

More Alphabetical Brads?

 I (Lauren) have completed the third section in my Brad Alphabet book, covering the letters M through P; which comprises four new pages, featuring twenty-seven Eyelet Outlet brads in twenty different styles! 

For the letter M, we've got: a trio of mischievous Monkeys from the Jungle Mix; a Mask from the Co-Vid themed Mask, Hand Sanitizer and Soap set; the Mailbox from our Mail Brads; a Mower from the Lawnmower set; and a handsome Moose Brad.

Representing the letter N: a Nutcracker, some (Music) Notes; an Anchor Brad (which I've re-named "Navy"; yes, I've allowed a bit of artistic license with descriptions, so that I'd have enough brads to cover the entire alphabet!); a stack of Novels (technically they are Book Brads); and a Compass Brad is covering Navigation. 

The letter O includes: an Oven Glove from our Cooking Brad set; some Ornaments; a (Sketched) Owl Brad; (we've got really cute colorful owls, as well); an Oak (at least I think it looks like an oak) which is part of the Summer Tree Brads; and a Onesie which technically falls under Baby Shirt, and alas the blue ones are out of stock.

For the sixteenth letter of the alphabet... aka P: a pair of pretty cool Penguins; a festive Party Hat; a slightly unseasonal Pumpkin; Popcorn from the Popcorn and Ticket set; and a Pig from our Pig and Sheep Brads.

My bookring is filling up really nicely with ATC's and I still have TEN letters to go; though when we get to Q, X and Z one suspects there will be a bit of doubling up!

I hope you'll be inspired to check out the wide variety of Eyelet Outlet Brads, I'm pretty sure we've got one or two styles that will be perfect for your next project!

CARDiologist

I had made this card several months ago, before Eyelet Outlet introduced the face mask brads.  It was in my stash and I had forgotten all about it until last week when I was in need of a get well card for my wonderful husband who was in the hospital for a couple of days.  As soon as I saw it, I knew I needed to add the face mask brad to it and I'm glad to report that my hubby is doing much better now!  Was it the visit from the "CARDiologist" or the antibiotics?  I'll let you decide!  

Eyelet Outlet Products Used:

Stethoscope from Nurse Brad Set

Envelope from Mail Brad Set

Face Mask from Mask, Hand Sanitizer & Soap Brad Set

Take it slow and just breathe!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing one more clean and simple card created with the quarantine-inspired brads that are new in the store which I paired with some pretty washi tape and enamel dots. This is another card in my series to pay tribute to our frontline healthcare workers. This sentiment, too, is true and literal. People all over the world have been through so much over the past year and we all need to be reminded to take it slow, one day at a time.

I created a standard A2 size top-folding card base from white cardstock along with front and inside layering panels from dark teal cardstock, and rounded the top right and lower left corners of all. The computer-generated front and inside sentiments were printed on white cardstock and trimmed, and the corners rounded. I applied two strips of Sky Washi Tape horizontally across the lower portion of the front panel and added a strip of Silver Dots Skinny Washi Tape on the seam of the two Sky strips. I added a Mask Brad just to the left of the sentiment and several White Enamel Dots to the background, then layered the panel on dark teal cardstock.

I embellished the right side of the inside panel with strips of the Sky Washi Tape and Silver Dots Skinny Washi Tape, adhered the panel to the teal cardstock layer and adhered it to the inside of the card base. Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

Lets pay tribute to our frontline healthcare workers!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a super clean and simple card to pay tribute to our frontline healthcare workers. All of the Eyelet Outlet designers are creating with the new quarantine brads in the store and are coming up with some great designs so be sure to check them out! I created several CAS designs that would be easy to reproduce that I'll be sharing over the next several weeks, so let me tell you about this first one!

I created a standard A2 size top-folding card base from black cardstock. The front sentiment is computer-generated so I printed it on white cardstock and trimmed the panel so that the sentiment was in the bottom right-hand corner. I embellished the panel with two strips of silver Glitter Skinny Washi Tape set a tad bit apart and a narrow strip of black cardstock adhered between them slightly offset to the right. Using a Hero Arts stamp set, I stamped the face (which kind of reminds me of Audrey Hepburn in her younger days) just above the sentiment and added a Mask Brad. I randomly placed three Black Enamel Dots on the background and adhered the panel to the front of the card base. I stamped 'You are fabulous' from the same stamp set on the inside. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time with another quarantine-inspired card!

A 'get well' fun fold!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a get well fun fold card guaranteed to make a sick friend or family member feel better! This triple fold card has a belly band and features some of the new quarantine brads in the store, along with enamel dots which are some of my personal favs!

I created the card base from brown cardstock and embellished the front panel and side flaps with coordinating patterned papers. I created a die cut element on which I stamped the 'get well' sentiment and affixed a Kleenex Brad and Mask and Soap Brads, and added several White Enamel Dots. I embellished the corners with punched hearts and slightly larger enamel dots. I embellished the inside panel with cardstock strips and punched hearts, stamped the sentiment, and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base.

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