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.

Crown & Tiara Brads

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.

Happy Father's Day

 It's soon Father's Day so I decided to get a few weeks ahead and get a card done for my husband. Masculine cards can be a little challenging but with EO products, it's easy breezy!

This card features Mustache, Eyeglass, and Star Brads. Black Glitter Enamel Dots help to balance the other elements. I placed them on the card but also on the vellum sentiment. The layered look is a nice effect.

You're so AL "LURE" ING!

Why wait for Valentine's Day to send your sweetie a love note?! Let them know how hooked you are today with this punny fishing themed card. 

Use one of Eyelet Outlet's fishing lure brads to convey how alluring they are to you and carry the theme forward with a wide mouth bass brad on the line. The fishing pole I used is from the Cricut image library, as is the little pond. I used one of cat tail brads from our frog brad set. It wouldn't be a love note without a heart, so I added a little black enamel heart. 

 

Con-GRAD-ulations!

This month, in my (Lauren's) family, we have two nieces graduating from college, and a nephew graduating from high school. Which called for a single flexible design that could be customized for three different personalities. As it turns out, I have *NO* graduation stamps or dies. (HOW is that possible?!) But... large numeral dies and colorful alphabet stickers on notebook paper make an excellent base, and I personalized each version with lots of Eyelet Outlet Brads. Since there are 42 brads from 18 different sets across the three designs, I'm going to just mention them below in the Shopping List section!

Take Me!

 Some days we all feel like we've had enough of crazy! Here's a funny little card that will cheer someone who can relate.

For this card I had planned to put two aliens in the space ship, but I realized I only had one left in my stash, so I opted for his buddy, a one-eyed monster brad and I think it worked great! I added a little red bling to the space ship and they're ready for take off! But will they return for the little girl who is begging to go?

Go Jump in the Lake!

Here's hoping that some of you are enjoying the lake scene this Memorial Day weekend. My card celebrates jumping in the lake as something that's lots of fun - not an insult. I love this idea because jumping in a lake is one of the joys a lot of us have experienced in our lives, at many different ages.

This card starts with a pre-printed tag that I matted and then put on a torn mat before putting it on a teal card. Then I added the brads and enamel brads to make it extra fun. It's a perfect way to celebrate the lake life.

I used a shopping bag die to create the shopping bag.  Then I added shopping related brads all around the card as if the items are coming out of the bag including the shoe & purse brads, dress brads, and woman's eye glass brads.  I decorated the bag with a flower jewel and added pink pearls as further embellishment. I added some tissue inside the bag, if you look close you can see Chanel on the tissue.

This would be a great card for the shopaholic in your life.  The possibilities are endless with Eyelet Outlet products.  Thank you for visiting the blog today.  I hope this inspires you to create a fun project.  Please visit Eyelet Outlet for creative supplies and inspiration.

Floral Reverse Double Z Card

Welcome to a card that can't help you feel like a warm summer afternoon. This is a reverse double-z card. The card style features a horizontal strip of cardstock that spans across the card when it's open. The strip was a perfect place to add a strip of pink Fancy Long Bling from the store. I layered three paper flowers in white red and yellow and used a clear Bumpy Bling as the center.

I placed a centered strip of Fancy Strip Bling across the entire strip. I used the flower as the focal point by gluing it to the middle of the strip on top of the bling. Then I added a Bee Brad on the strip and also on the right side of the card. I used Pearl Strip Bling to create bee trails. Finally I added three Mini Butterfly Brads on the left side of the card.

I loved how this card turned out. EO products made it easy to make this card special. The products I used are below.

You're the G.O.A.T.

There is no doubt about it - I am incredibly blessed with a set of friends who ARE the G.O.A.T.  They truly are the greatest of all time, so today's card is made with a very grateful heart for the many ways they look out for me.

If you've ever spent any time around goats, you know that there's nothing they won't climb. There's no mountain high enough for them, so I used a snow capped mountain image and put my Eyelet Outlet goat brad on top. I added a few of our pine tree brads on the left side, and in the higher elevation I added a a snowy tree brad.

Neutral tones with pops of teal and yellow add up to a bright and beachy card featuring Eyelet Outlet Shell Brads, Sea Shore Brads, a Beach Umbrella and Sunglass Brads. A few Sticky Back Heart Pearls, 1/8" Round Eyelets in the corners, and mats of Glitter Copper Tape complete the design.
