It's time for a throwback and since we have been experiencing a heatwave almost everywhere in the US, I though this little beach number would be very fitting!

This card was originally published in 2022. It's a lady on the beach relaxing with some wine and her flip flops. Shells also grace the beach. These items are all EO brads and make this card absolutely perfect!

HA-PEA BIRTHDAY!

I'm sure by now you've heard the news, that after 25 years of supplying the best brads, bling, enamel shapes, washi and more, Suzanne and Tony, the owners of Eyelet Outlet will be retiring at the end of the year. It's been a huge privilege to have served on the Eyelet Outlet Design Team for over 10 years. I've been reflecting on our years together over the past few weeks and I thought it would be fun to share some blasts from the past as we wrap up this time together.

The wide variety of enamel dots and shapes have always been a favorite product for me. On this card, made in 2017, I used flat top green enamel dots as peas and honestly, I think they look good enough to eat! I added some green swirl bling on the pea pod and card face as well as inside the little diamond shape border. There's a strip of green and white washi tape down the left side of the card. This particular tape has already sold out, but there's still some beautiful tapes available, so be sure and browse through them and fill your carts while supplies last! There's still a great selection of our enamel dots and shapes available at amazing prices, so be sure and stock up, as there's so many ways to use them!

Thanks for stopping by to reminisce with me today!

Then Sings My Soul

 My thoughts turned to my Dad the other day and I fondly remembered how he whistled the lovely old hymn, "How Great Thou Art" as he worked splitting and stacking fire wood. And since I have heard that the angels are near when cardinals appear, this card practically made itself. 

Surrounding the first words of the chorus is a simple wreath that I embellished with Eyelet Outlet music note brads. To the pine branch, I added one of our pinecone brads and a cardinal brad. The enamel heart brought it home. ❤

This week, instead of my photo at the bottom of the post, here's a picture of Dad. Most likely he was whistling in this photo.

Wise Owl

 This might sound a little sarcastic, but I think my wise older brother can handle it! I haven't used the Eyelet Outlet sketched owl brad very much and I don't know why! He's so cool!

I wanted some more dimension and shine, so I added some of our silver glitter stars and dots to the night sky. The night sky background as well as the branch are from the Cricut image library.

Liquidation is under way at Eyelet Outlet, so stop by and fill your cart with these and many other amazing products!

Oh Hello!

 Today's card is inspired by a visit with a friend to the nail salon. It felt like such a girlie girl morning that I decided it would be fun to use that theme in today's card.

I started this one with a preprinted frame that said Oh Hello! It was included in a paper pad and the girl in her sunglasses was included in a patterned paper. I fussy cut her out and added a crown from the Crown & Tiara Brads. Then I added the Sun & Cloud brads, the Women's Eye Glass Brads, and the Shoe & Purse Brads.

It was a lot of fun to create this little diva card. The EO store has just the brads to make my card really pop. I think I'm going to give it to the friend who invited me along this morning. I think she'll enjoy it.

You’re A Cut Above

You're going to want to grab a few law mower brads while they're still available! I used one on this project to let a great dad know that he's a "Cut Above the Rest!" 

I chose a big bold font and then sliced the word, "Dad," from a grass digital pattern in Cricut Design Space and added the lawn mower brad to the word. 

Eyelet Outlet's lovely colored daisy brads in the yard added a bright a cheerful touch. The package contains pink, purple, and yellow daisies. 

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you've found some fun ways to honor dad as the team has brought lots of fun inspiration this week.
