Summer Fun & Sunshine!

 Hello Ai fans! Well, it's the first holiday of the summer and you know what that means? Yep. Fun in the sun is in full swing. Break out your whites, swimsuits and beach umbrellas. It's time to soak it in while we can. 

To create this card, I made the background using Skinny Washi and Glitter Chevron Washi. I added Blue Glitter Enamel Dots in corners. I made a mat for the ephemera piece with Butterfly Washi and more of the Glitter Chevron Washi. Then I attached the pieces together and decorated the edges with many summer themed brads. I used: Beach Umbrellas, Sunglasses-Colored, Water Splat, and Crab & Lobster Brad Sets. The entire list with links are found below:

Summertime and the Livin' Is Easy!

Hi everyone! It's Janet with a summertime beachy card for you today. We are gearing up for 90+ degrees this upcoming week and all I can think about is the beach. As is often the case, my cards are inspired by what is going on around me and this card is no exception. I used patterned paper and sand embossing powder to create the scene that I tucked the brads into. It looks just like the place I'll wish I am this week!

There are a ton of beach related brads and washi tape in the EO Store. I've used just a few. 

SHOPPING LIST:
Crab & Lobster Brads
Flip Flop Brads
Shell Brads
Sun and Cloud Brads
Beach Umbrella Brads
Blue Glitter Enamel Dots

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

Sandy Feet are the Best Feet!

 

Hi EO fans! Today I've got a fun sandy beach scene full of fun EO beachy brads. To make this card, I created a blended background out of distress oxide inks. The sand was created first by masking off the horizon line and then I blended the water and sky. 

I used the new brown flip flop brads along with Sandcastle Brads and Beach Umbrella Brads. The Sun and Cloud Brad set always looks great in a sky scene. 

SHOPPING LIST:

Flip Flop Brads

Sandcastle Brads

Beach Umbrella Brads

Sun and Cloud Brads

I matted the scene on a handmade water color background I had made some time ago. I keep handmade backgrounds on my work table until I find a use for them. I think this one looked great with the scene colors. I used a light brown kraft cardstock with lots of fiber in it for the A2 card base.

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you are having a beachy day!

Happy Creating Everyone!

Ah! The Beach Life!

 Around here, August is beach month. One last time to dip your toes in the water and enjoy the sunshine and sand. 

Today's card is a celebration of the last trip to the beach for the season. If you can't get to a beach or don't live near a beach, hopefully this will transport you there on a mini-mind vacation!

Have you seen the new Crab and Lobster Brad Set yet? I've used one of the lobsters on this card along with many other beachy brads including the sandcastle, umbrella, sunglasses, starfish, sand dollar and seagull. This is a scene printed from Cricut Design Space.

We're Grillin' and Chillin'...

...with the fabulous brand new Eyelet Outlet BBQ Brads!

One of my (Lauren's) favorite Brad Tricks is to make a smaller shape or frame for the brads to live in, which can also serve as the focal point for the card. In this case, I diecut three circles of different sizes and made a composite scene with Sun and Cloud Brads in one; the silver grill and blue apron from the BBQ Set... plus a Beach Umbrella; and one of the beer bottles and the mug from our Beer Brads. My background is diecut clouds and I've added some paper-punched grass to ground each circle and add to the vibe of outdoor fun.

I hope you'll be inspired to make a card or project featuring your favorite summer activity; I guarantee we have an Eyelet Outlet brad style that will work!
