Christmas Window

 Hello Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you are all enjoying the holiday season. If only we could slow everything down a bit right? Eyelet Outlet can help you look like you took a lot of time to make a handmade card with hardly any time at all. Today's card is a perfect example. This card lets washi tape create a unique background to a simple window die cut. Then the window is quickly decorated with several EO brads. Let's discuss how this comes together.

To start, I covered a white piece of cardstock cut at 5" x 3.75." I covered it with stripes of washi tape from the EO store. In order for them bottom I used: Tree Washi Tape, Town Washi Tape, Deer Washi Tape, and Holiday Washi Tape. Then I finished with the first three washi tapes to take me to the top. I really love how this looks. All the colors go well together.

I cut and pieced the window die cut. It's called Holiday Window from CottageCutz. I decorated the window ledge with Pinecone Brads, and single brads from the Ornaments, Poinsettia, Holly and Cardinal Profile sets. The detail on this ledge is really fun.

So you can see that this card took a small of time to create but looks complex and time consuming. It's always great to create something that makes you look like a crafting hero!

Polar Bear Wishes

 Today I've got a Christmas card with a decidedly outdoor theme. Eyelet Outlet has a lot of animal brads but the Polar Bear Set is one of my favorites. It comes with a large and a small bear. I've made them the focal points of my card.

I began this card by cutting two pieces of white cardstock 2" by 5". I covered one with strips of washi tape using Poinsettia Washi Tape and Holiday Washi Tape. Then I tore an edge off of each piece so that they I could adhere them to a green mat. This was then glued on to a red A2 card base. I made a sentiment strip and mounted it on red cardstock. It was very easy to tear the washi tape covered pieces to get a distressed looking pieces for a little different look. You can also cut washi tape covered cardstock with dies or an electronic cutter. 

I cut a decorative circle out of cardstock covered in Sparkle White Glitter Washi Tape. Now for the fun EO brads. In the center I placed a Pine Tree Brad, a Sleigh Brad and the small Polar Bear Brad. I used the large Polar Bear Brad on the left side of the sentiment as an accent.
