Recipe Scrapbooking

 My journey with Eyelet Outlet began when I was introduced to recipe scrapbooking back in 2009.  I discovered their amazing selection of cooking/food related brads and I was hooked!  Over the years I turned to card making as my predominate craft, but now and then I take some time to return to my first love-recipe scrapping.  

This week I decided to make a page for a holiday favorite in my family.  It wouldn't be Christmastime at my house without one of these rum cakes!


I'm so happy to have replaced my tattered 1977 recipe card with this fancy page in my recipe scrapbook!  I used the wooden spoon, mixer, measuring cup, and saucepan brads on the recipe. All of these and many more all found in the Food, Drink, & Cooking Brads tab at Eyelet Outlet. 


I also added some beautiful Eyelet Outlet bling and gems, candy brads and holly brads and I'm so thrilled with how fancy this page turned out!

Thanks for stopping in today! I hope I've inspired you to scrapbook some of your family's favorite receipes!

Too Cute to be Spooky

These sweet witches in their spooky scene are already pretty cute, but they're exponentially more adorable when Eyelet Outlet Halloween Brads join the fun. The addition of a Witch Hat, a handsome Bat Brad, a mischievous Kitten checking out a Pumpkin, a cute but creepy Spider and some pink Rose and Colored Daisy Brads make the illustration come to life; then a double mat of Glitter Black Tape and Halloween Dot Washi tie it all together.


Stay tuned to the Eyelet Outlet Blog for more Halloween and Thanksgiving projects to make your Autumn Crafting FALL into place!

Trick or Treat!

 Do you create goodies for trick-or-treaters?

Here is a fun card idea to try! I started with a standard size card, then created a diagonal pocket using the glitter washi tapes and the fun monster washi! I stamped the plain triangular part with candies and colored in with colored pencils.

I added a sentiment banner and embellished with the colorful, fun, and "scary" monster brads!  You could slip in a gift card or chocolate bar, a treat that both the young and old "trick-or-treaters" would surely enjoy! Happy Halloween!

washi tape then die cut the oval and added the
cute acorn brads from Eyelet Outlet. Thay are so
realistic. I added a squirell brad on the bottom leaf

Day of the Dead with Sugar Skulls


 Hello EO fans! Today I'm sharing a Day of the Dead card. Yes, I've succumbed to all the sugar skull madness. But who wouldn't? Especially when there are such great embellishments to work with like the new Sugar Skull Brads from Eyelet Outlet. I used five of them on a patterned cardstock that I embossed and highlighted with pink, blue and white ink. It doesn't show well in the picture but its very dimensional. I also added Rose Brads. They go so perfectly with the Sugar Skulls. Finally I used several colors and sizes of jewel bling on the background to add just the right amount of bling.

Pinata Party

For this week’s project, I choose to feature Eyelet Outlet’s brand new Pinata Brads. I created a super cute pinata themed shaker card that is actually a pinata! Pull on the fringe and out comes some fun glittery confetti.



I created the border using the Groovy Washi Tape and added clear Jewel Bling for sparkle. In the corners, I used blue and orange Cut Jewels.



Hope you enjoyed the Pinata Party!  See you next week.

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

Sweet Christmas Wishes

Good morning crafters! I'm quite hooked on buckle fold cards lately! They are such a fun way to use patterned cardstock!


And when your cardstock just happens to perfectly complement some of your Eyelet Outlet brads, then it's all the more fun!  Today I used a few of our gingerbread kids and a candy cane on the front of the card, but we also have holly and tree brads at Eyelet Outlet that would have been very cute, as well!


We love to see how you are using Eyelet Outlet on your holiday crafts, so be sure and come by our Eyelet Outlet Fans Facebook Group and share your projects with us!

Go Vegan for Thanksgiving!

 


Fall is going fast and it'll soon be time to think about the menu for the annual Thanksgiving Feast. Of course, what is Thanksgiving without the turkey! Today's turkey is doing his best to get uninvited to the day where he's normally the star of the show!

This little vegan is surrounded by Mini and Leaf Brads and Orange Pearl Brads. He is standing on a strip of Pumpkin Washi Tape which holds the new Acorn & Squirrel Brads. Also included are a Sunflower Brad and a Pumpkin Brad.


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

From Drab to Fab!!

Even if you do not have a stash of craft supplies at your disposal to create handmade cards, you can still have all the fun using Eyelet Outlets brads and bling!

For this week’s creation, I didn’t make any cards…nope…I BOUGHT them from my local Dollar store!! I bought the three plainest looking cards I could find knowing Eyelet Outlet would come to my rescue to help jazz them up!

Check these out!

For the Happy Birthday card, I used a variety of colors from the Lollipop Brads, multi colored pearl bling, and two different washi-tapes in the corners – the Dot Washi Tape and the Glitter Chevron Washi Tape.




For the Baby Boy card, I used a Safety Pin Brad, several Water Splat Brads, three of the Train Mix Brads, blue Jewel Bling, and two different washi-tapes – the Silver Foil Washi Tape and the Glitter Dark Blue Washi Tape.



For the Baby Girl card, I used a Safety Pin Brad, several Heart Brads, pink Jewel Bling, white pearl bling and some white Pearl Swirl Bling.



You don’t have to make handmade cards from scratch to use EO’s goodies.  As you can see, any store-bought card can be transformed into a handmade card that is cute enough to be the gift! 



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

Signs of Fall

"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the Autumn tree." Emily Bronte


 I love looking for the signs, sounds, and scents of Autumn! I created this card thinking of all the things I enjoy about Autumn! I created a slimline style card with 1.50 inch squares and added washi tape, letters, and brads of all things fall! Pumpkins, scarecrows, foxes, pinecones, fall leaves, and the NEW acorns and squirrel brads!

Pinata Party


 These are our new pinata brads from Eyelet Outlet and I fell
 in love with them immediately. I also had a pinata stamp
 set from Pretty Pink Posh so I colored the pinata stamps to match the brads,
 cut each one out, and added foam for some elevation.

I also used one of my favorite washi tapes from Eyelet Outlet. It always
seems to go perfectly with just about anything. For a bit
of sparkle I added a small strip of glitter washi and embellished
it with orange enamel brads.

Looks like it is time to get this party rolling and find what is in the pinata.
Here is your Eyelet Out Shopping List
Pinata Brads
 Chevron Washi tape
Enamel Dots in Orange
Glitter Thin Washi Tape

See you next Monday and keep creating.

Birthday Fiesta!


 It's fiesta time today and it's easy to celebrate with the new Piñata Brads. They combine perfectly with Cocktail Brads, Fresh Flowers Bright Brads, Lemonade and Fruit Brads, and Music Note Brads. Although I didn't use them, the Cactus Brads would work nicely with this grouping as well.

I made this by first stamping the sentiment and mouse. I also stamped the colorful banner. Then I used the brads to decorate and enhance the panel. It's a very colorful and happy way to celebrate someone's birthday.
