Bewitching Bugalow Luminary

Happy Saturday Everyone!!

Continuing with the cottage theme from last week, today we are introduced to the Bewitching Bungalow...oops...I mean Bugalow.

This charming Bugalow is the perfect place for any and all little bugs and their buddies to come play – day or night! If you look closely, you will see several visitors like the Ferris the Frog from the Frog Set Brads, Leonardo the Turtle from the Turtle Brads, Owl Capone from the Owl Brads, Gilbert the Gecko from the Reptile Brads, an army of ants marching from the Mini Ant Brads, a few buzzing bumblebees from the Mini Bee Brads and of course, a magical family a dragonflies from the Dragonfly Brads. All these adorable brads are available for you to add fun additions like these to your projects only at Eyelet Outlet.




To create the Bugalow, I used a template I had in my stash and just Stacyed it up!  On the roof and front panel, I used my favorite Jewel Bling Strips and Pearl Bling Strips were used on the sides and back.

The large flower was made with several White Paper Flowers that I water colored to get it an ethereal look.  In the center of the flower are five white Glitter Enamel Dots.

The grass and rows of flowers were die cut and then heat embossed several times to give it depth and dimension.

 And it wouldn’t be a Stacy Strate Design if it didn’t do something extra!!!!  It lights up!  The roof lifts off where I’ve placed a battery-operated candle that shines beautifully through the velum windows.



Hope you enjoy!!

You're Hot!

Hello everyone. I'm here today to share a love card. Now, maybe two lizards don't strike you as the objects of love. I beg to differ! I've known several people who adore their pet lizards and other cold blooded creatures. They're not for me but I still like this theme as there is a twist of humor in it.

I used washi tape for the background instead of paper. I don't have a lot of desert themed paper but I had two washi tapes. With a bit of sky washi and some green skinny washi, a perfect background was born! This was a fun one to put it together.


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

Happy Creating Everyone!

Iguana Wish You The Beat

I was browsing through my Eyelet Outlet brad collection this past week and gave myself a challenge to create a card using one of the brad sets I had not used in a while.  



The colorful reptile brads were my focus and here's what I came up with!  I also added a few mini leaf brads and a sunshine brad, because what lizard doesn't like to lounge in the sun! The frame is from Cricut's Ole image set.  I cut the orange layer in iron on vinyl, which I find works amazingly on cardstock.

Thanks for stopping in today.  We'd love to see how you've used Eyelet Outlet products.  Come on over to the Eyelet Outlet Fans Facebook group and share with us!

It's a RAINBOW Brad Book

Last year I (Lauren) made an Alphabet Brad Book featuring as many Eyelet Outlet Brads as I could fit onto two dozen or so playing-card-sized ATCs. That project was so much fun I thought I'd do a different version: this time grouping the brads --and a few coordinating EO Washi Tapes-- by color. So without further ado, I present my Eyelet Outlet Rainbow Brad Book!


The cover has a sticker title on top of Rainbow Washi decorated with a Rainbow Brad, a sweet blue Fairy and some white Enamel Stars


Eventually, I'll arrange the pages in spectrum order, but I've been working pretty randomly to choose coordinating brads, tapes and letter stickers, so at the moment, page one has all things ORANGE, including: a PumpkinCandy Corn, a Witch Hat, a Monster, some Foxes, a Tiger, a couple of Ducks, (...possibly a bit nervous being so close to the tiger...) Movie Brads, and the orange gecko from our Reptile Set. With a strip of Geometric Washi, to match.


Technically, a rainbow doesn't contain neutrals, but there are quite a few cool brads that are black, white, grey, and in this case, tan and BROWN, so I figured I'd add a few pages to reflect that. Here you can see: the Kennel Mix, a Paw Print, critters from the Jungle Mix and Lion, Tiger Zebra Set, a Teddy Bear, various Shell Brads, a Fan, a Sunglass BradFlip Flops and a refreshing Beer Brad. With a bit of Wood Washi to hold the title.


The PURPLE page boasts some yummy Grape Brads, a Butterfly, a purple Fairy, a lavender unicorn from the Unicorn and Rainbow set, Knitting Brads (they're on sale!) a Party HatStitched Flowers and Mini Stitched Flowers (also on sale!) as well as Dragonflies; all atop some Checked Purple Tape.


The pages are constructed from graph paper, backed with plain white cardstock, and measure just a smidge over 3.5 x 5.5". I used my vintage typewriter to add the words on coordinating strips of paper.


There are still more colors (and more neutrals!) yet to come, so I hope you'll stop by the Eyelet Outlet Blog again next week to see more Rainbow Brad goodness!

favorite color is
RAINBOW!

Valen-TINY

Valentines come in all shapes and sizes, and these are definitely of the smaller variety. Artist Trading Cards are 2.5 x 3.5" (modeled on the average playing card) which is big enough for some sweet Eyelet Outlet Chameleon or Turtle Brads (they're on sale!), plus Sun and Cloud Brads, and a silly sentiment. Everything you need to wish your Valentine a happy day.  


Stay tuned to the Eyelet Outlet Blog, where the design team are always cooking up something fun to inspire you!

can literally NEVER
resist a pun!

Colorful ATCs

I (Lauren) love making Artist Trading Cards with my Eyelet Outlet Brads, so this seemed like a good time to make some featuring the newest Spring 2021 Releases: FelinesKennel MixColored DaisiesTropical Birds and Reptiles.

"Feline Groovy" features the Feline Brads, obviously, as well as some colorful wide Geometric Tape.

"Bloomin' Awesome" has only one of the three shades of Colored Daisy, but it's colorful enough to keep our attention. I've added some Flower Tapeas well as two older styles of Skinny Tape.

"Doggone It" pairs the doghouse from Kennel Mix with a Long Dog (who's on sale!) and an accent of two plaid washi tape styles as well as some Skinny Heart Tape.

"Squawkward" stars a one of three very handsome parrots from the Tropical Birds Set, as well as boldly spotted Dot Washi Tape and Skinny Tape.

"Birds of a Feather" features a pair of adorable toucans from the Tropical Birds, because TWO toucans are even better than one! I love how they look against thet bold black and white Floral Tape (which is out of stock, alas but This One is quite similar).

And finally, "One in Chameleon" has the eponymous half of our Reptile Brads against some Foil Tape.


There's inspiration all week long on the Eyelet Outlet Blog, stop back often and see!

loves making ATCs!

Chameleon says thank you!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing an adorable clean and simple thank you card! What better way to say 'thank you' than with a super cute chameleon?! This card features a little guy (or gal, lol) from one of the newer brad collections in the store which I paired with some awesome skinny washi tape and my favorite enamel dots!

The top-folding card base is a standard A2 size cut from Neenah Classic Linen Solar White 100# cardstock which I embellished with a strip of patterned paper and a strip of Skinny Gold Washi Tape adhered to a skinny strip of white cardstock. I did this because there are no layers to tuck the ends of the washi tape behind and I wanted the ends to look clean. The star of the show is a cute little chameleon from the Reptile Brads pack sitting on a stamped and die cut limb with a small cluster of leaves. I stamped the sentiment in teal ink in the lower left corner and added some Green Enamel Dots to complete the front. 



The inside panel was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished with strips of patterned paper and strips of Skinny Gold Washi Tape, and the sentiment stamped in teal ink.



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