Have A Lovely Birthday!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a pretty birthday card featuring our new Female Cardinal Brads which I paired with our Glitter Brown Washi Tape, Valentine Washi Tape and White Enamel Dots! Nothing like girls just hanging out jabbering to one another, lol!

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base from white cardstock along with layering panels from white and brown cardstock, and rounded the top left and bottom right corners. I stamped the branch and flowers on the white panel, added three Female Cardinal Brads on the limbs, and added strips of Glitter Brown Washi Tape and Valentine Washi Tape across the bottom. I stamped the sentiment in brown ink, cut it with a stitched oval die and adhered it to the bottom right. I adhered the layering panels together and then to card base, and added several White Enamel Dots to complete the front.

I cut the inside panel from white cardstock and embellished it with strips of the Glitter Brown Washi Tape and Valentine Washi Tape. I stamped the sentiment in brown ink and layered the panel on brown cardstock after rounding the upper left and bottom right corners.

Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

Can't have too many dogs!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a fun card for your favorite crazy dog person! My hubby and I are crazy cat people but we love dogs too, and all kinds of other animals for that matter. This was a fun clean and simple card to put together!

I thought a brown and black color combo for this dog card would be fun. I cut a standard A2 size top-folding white card base along with slightly smaller black and white cardstock panels. I applied a strip of Glitter Brown Washi Tape down toward the bottom of the white panel and then added strips of Glitter Black Washi Tape above and below the brown. I stamped the sentiment in brown ink, added several Dog Brads and layered the panel on the black cardstock panel. I adhered the piece to the card base and added several White Enamel Dots to finish off the front. 

Thanks so much for stopping by - we'll see you next time!

Christmas ATCs with a sparkle

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a set of three sparkly Christmas ATCs. I'm a confirmed ATC addict and I love creating both cards and coins! 

 

I created one coin and two cards. An artist trading coin is a 2-1/2" circle (I use a punch) and an artist trading card is 3-1/2" x 2-1/2". My standard practice is to always punch two circles or cut two rectangles so that I can decorate one and adhere another one behind it for stability.

To create the 'Joy' coin, I placed a strip of Glitter Tall Tree Washi Tape horizontally across the coin base and added three Penguin Brads and the sentiment die cut from silver foil cardstock. Then I adhered a second punched circle behind it.

To create the 'peace' card, I covered the card base with Wood Washi Tape and then die cut the sentiment into the covered card base, saving the negative space pieces to add back in later. I added three Prancing Deer Brads and just prior to adhering the second rectangle behind it, I added two small strips of Glitter Brown Washi Tape to the extra card so the sparkle would show through the die cut sentiment. Once I adhered the second rectangle, I glued in the negative space pieces to the p, e, a and the second e. 

To create the 'merry' card, I covered the card base with Glitter Gold Dots Washi Tape and added the sentiment die cut from red cardstock along with a thin red cardstock strip across the bottom. I adhered the stamped word Christmas and then added one Cardinal Brad and two Cardinal Profile Brads. Then I adhered a second rectangle behind it. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!
