It's Flipping Fun! Celebrating with Eyelet Outlet Brads & Bling

Hi everyone! I'm excited to share another fun interactive card with you this week – it's a fantastic flip card! When you pull the tab, three rectangles magically flip over, essentially doubling the space for sentiments, and of course, plenty of Eyelet Outlet brads and bling.

I started with a clever LDRS Creative die for the card base, which makes creating this flip mechanism a breeze. Then, it was time to deck it out with tons of EO goodies! On the main cardstock sentiment. You can find a complete list of all the products I used for both sides of this flip card below in the shopping list.

SHOPPING LIST:
Gift Brads
Candle Brads
Party Hat Brads
Balloon Brads
Cupcake Swirl Brads
Saying Bubble Brads

This card is so much fun to make and even more fun to open! I hope it inspires you to try an interactive design and explore all the possibilities with your favorite brads and bling.

Thanks for joining me here today and please visit the EO store for all your brads, washi tape, bling and paper flowers!

Some Bunny Loves You!

There's only a few more days until Valentine's Day! It's hard to believe. It always comes and goes faster than any of the other holidays to me.

To celebrate, I have a cute little bunny with an apron full of items and a cute mailbox stuffed with gifts and goodies. To make this one, I glued a piece of sky patterned paper on a white A2 card. Then I cut two pieces of grass out and layered them below the sky. I stamped and colored the bunny and the mailbox and glued them in place. Then I attached all the fun brads that makes this have such a great 3D presence. It's so much better than the little images that came with the stamp set. Brads add shine and dimension that just can't be replicated any other way.

Remember that a card like this could be tweaked a little to make it perfect for Easter also. Just add a few egg brads, a chick brad or two, and change the sentiment and you've got a great Easter themed card. And speaking of Easter, I better get busy on those cards next!

 SHOPPING LIST:

Rose Brads
Mail Brads
Heart Brads
Gift Brads

Happy Birthday

We all need birthday cards and I'm trying to make up a stack to have on hand so I'm not scrabbling last minute this year.  Here's one I made today.

The colorful "Happy Birthday" image is from the Cricut Design Space image library.  As soon as I saw it, I knew the Eyelet Outlet Birthday Candle brad would make a perfect "I" for this card!  I topped the candle brad with a flame cut from our gold glitter washi tape.  I added a few balloon brads, a gift brad, and a party hat to finish it off. 

Well, I'm off to make the next birthday card for my stash!  See you next week!

 

 

Snowy Winter Birthday Wishes!

Do you have family and friends with winter birthdays? Here's a fun, cheery snowman that is sure to brighten their special day! 

After stamping my snowman and coloring him in with markers, I used an exacto knife to cut slits around him to place my "happy" banner. Next, I added some white glitter washi for snow and a couple snowflake brads. I added the birthday banner to the bottom and embellished with colorful balloon brads and party hats for a festive birthday card! Creating with washi tape and brads from Eyelet Outlet make card creating easy and fun!

Thank you so much for stopping by! Don't forget to shop at Eyelet Outlet for all your crafting needs!

2, 4, 6, 8!

 Belated birthday cards are something we all need now and again, but that doesn't mean they can't be colorful and fun! This sentiment, "2, 4, 6, 8... Guess whose card is really late?!" is made visual with the use of oversized vinyl numerals, a computer-printed sentiment in a sturdy typewriter font and two Eyelet Outlet Cupcake Brads, four Party Hats, six Balloons and eight birthday Candle Brads.

The Eyelet Outlet Online Store literally has brads, washi, bling, flowers, eyelets and sequins for EVERY occasion, so whatever sentiment you're dreaming up for your next card, we've got you covered!

Lauren Bergold

thinks she received a card with this sentiment, circa 1980!

NOT Just for Cards!

Eyelet Outlet Washi Tape, Paper Flowers and Brads, that is. You can also use them to make customized gift bags, like this one. Just cover plain white cardstock with neat strips of tape (this variety is Happy Birthday Foil Washi)... print out an initial in your favorite font (this one's called Chicken Pie and was free on dafont.com)... trace and cut. Embellish with a few shades and sizes of Solid Color Paper Flowers held on with Candle, Party Hat and Cupcake or Cupcake Swirl Brads. For even more color and pizazz, diecut hearts from a coordinating tape, like Pink Checked Washi and use one repeat of the Birthday Tape to create your sentiment strip. Scatter a few Round Sequins and you're good to go. And yes, all of the above looks pretty good on a matching birthday card, as well!  

There are brads, tapes, flowers, sequins, bling and more for every style, theme or occasion you can possibly imagine in the EO Store... you should probably check that out!
