Fall has officially arrived in the Northern Hemisphere, so here's a card that celebrates some autumnal favorites, in Eyelet Outlet Brad form. There are quite a few different brad styles here, so please jump down to the Handy Shopping List for direct links to each one. Just a reminder that the Clearance Event has now been in progress for a few months, so apologies if any of these have gone out of stock. There are still loads of bargains to be had though... stock up on your favorites today!
Autumn *begins* at the end of September, but somehow it really kicks into high gear after Halloween. Here are some favorite Fall Icons, represented by Eyelet Outlet Brads: colorful Leaf Brads; an acorn from the Acorn & Squirrel Set; a Sunflower, and a Pumpkin Brad... all set off with Wide Brick Washi Tape.
Autumn is here and there are lots of fabulous Eyelet Outlet Brads to help us celebrate that fact. Here we have Leaf Brads, Acorn and Squirrel Brads, Sunflower Brads, and a Pumpkin Brad in a Pick-up Truck. The matted letter squares are mounted on a background of beautiful vertically-oriented Autumn Washi Tape.
Fall is so much fun to craft. I love using fall colors and textures and today's card was super fun to put together. This is a simple fancy fold which results in a pop-up middle portion. It folds flat for mailing and a panel can be added to the back for a sentiment and note.
I decorated this fall card with several EO brads and bling. I placed three Butterfly Brads, one on each panel. Two Pumpkin Brads and a Sunflower rest under the mushroom die cut. I added a lovely Acorn from the Acorn and Squirrel Brad set. Last I added Orange Cut Jewel Bling and yellow Glitter Enamels on the panels and as spots on the mushroom.

Happy Mother's Day, everyone! I hope all the wonderful moms are being showered with love and attention today – you deserve it all!
To celebrate, I wanted to create a card with a bit of fun and a whole lot of heart. Imagine a little gathering on a brick wall (thanks to the fantastic Brick Washi Tape!), all set against a sunny Wide Sky Washi Tape background.
Above this adorable scene, little word bubbles of thanks float in the air – stamped and carefully cut out. And right there on the wall, a festive Mother's Day Banner proudly proclaims the occasion.
But the real magic comes from the five little critters lined up on the wall, each one a tiny messenger of love for Mom! The Polar Bear, Feline, Chicken, Acorn & Squirrel, and Rabbit Brads each have their own charm. To top it all off, I added two Sticky Back Pink Heart Pearls to the banner for an extra touch of sweetness.
Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing moms! May your day be filled with joy and love.

Celebrating autumn with a sweet and simple card featuring Eyelet Outlet Pumpkin Brads, a Squirrel from the Acorn and Squirrel set and a scattering of tiny, perfect Mini Leaf Brads.
Hello EO fans! This year my family have been invited for Thanksgiving dinner at a friend's house. I was thinking about how to thank them for this and it came to me that I could dress up a bottle of wine nicely with a wine tag decorated with EO brads and bling. So - that's just what I did!
I made the hangtag using a stitched slimline die. It turns out that this is the perfect size to make a wine tag. I scored the top of metallic rose gold piece and applied two pieces of fall patterned papers to the top of the scored piece and to the bigger bottom piece. I cut these to leave a 1/8" border on all side. I used a punch to make the hole for the wine bottle neck.
To decorate this, I stamped and cut a Thankful sentiment, made a twine bow and added a leaf and Pilgrim Hat pre-printed die cuts. Then I added all the EO goodness. I tucked a Rooster Brad in near the top of the hat. I also added Leaf Brads, Sunflower, and Squirrel Brads around the hat. At the top of the tag, I added an Acorn Brad. As a final touch, I added clear bling and small white pearls.
I am so pleased with this tag, I am definitely going to make some Christmas wine tags. I think they'll turn out beautifully.
Our Boy Gnomes have a new pal in the garden! The Girl Gnome Brads made their debut last week and you can find them and the other new brads in the New Brads 2024 tab at Eyelet Outlet I used one of each gnomes to welcome you to my garden card.
I set the stage for this lovely little garden with a strip of Flower Washi Tape. I added a Garden Tool Brad and some Mini Stitched Flowers to the garden flag. A little Squirrel Brad is enjoying the garden view from his fence top perch. And of course every garden needs a little Sun Shine.
It's the last weekend before Thanksgiving. If you are in the United States, most of you are thinking about gatherings centering around family with a harvest of bounty, the Thanksgiving Feast! I have been busy shopping and prepping for the day. How about you?
Today I've combined a die cut image with several EO brads and a pumpkin washi tape. It's pretty simple to enhance die cuts with brads that fit the theme. I've used many here on the pumpkin flower scene.
To make the card, I start by cutting the die cuts out of white cardstock. Then I color the shapes with Copic markers. You can shade your die cuts this way. I also enhanced a yellow paper flower with a marker. To make the background, I covered a piece of cardstock with pumpkin washi tape and then cut it and a shadow layer out with scalloped dies.
Once all the cuts were ready, I began to piece the die cuts and I placed many accent brads amongst the die cuts. I included sunflowers, leaves, pumpkin, acorn, scarecrow, and butterflies.
The joys of Autumn in the Northeast include colorful foliage, crisp cold days and plenty of nuts and seeds for our furry friends to gather. This card sums up Fall and celebrates our new Acorn and Squirrel Brads, a gorgeous Sunflower, a Pumpkin and a bouquet of Leaf Brads.
Who’s ready for another Thanksgiving table decoration? For this week’s creation, I made Turkey Place cards. These are perfect for showing everyone where to sit and for a sweet keepsake for each guest.
I made three different place cards and with Eyelet Outlet’s assistance, was able
to make each one as cute as the next.
The first place card is for Sean. His is made by using the Groovy Washi Tape, black Pearl Bling for the turkey eyes, red Jewel Bling for his body and finished off with a rustic Pinecone Brad.
The last place card is for Ms. Ryley Ann. Her turkey has black Pearl Bling for eyes, orange Jewel Bling on the body and highlighted with a cute little Pumpkin Brad.
Place cards are super easy to make and are fun little gifts to give your guests. All you need is a little cardstock, scissors, glue and the cutest embellishments from Eyelet Outlet!
More Thanksgiving décor next week!!!!
Have a wonderful week
and always be STRATE-UP CRAFTY!

I also added tree brads to make it more realistic. What really makes
the scene so realistic is the mountain washi tape I added from
Eyelet Outlet. Although it is wide I put down two strips so the page
looked full and complete. Finally, I attached two of the
squirrel brads that are brand new to the Eyelet Outlet
collection along with some glitter washi tape
at the corners of the card.

Have you ever used the Eyelet Outlet washi tapes and brads in your paper planner?
In preparing for a busy Autumn and holiday season, I was thinking of my paper planner and how fun it would be to add washi tape and brads to create a Autumn themed layout!
I pulled my collection of Autumn themed brads and washi and went to town! Adding these elements created a fun and colorful layout! You could even add fall stamps, stickers, colored markers, and more! The possibilities are endless!
