Paws-itively Perfect: A Pop-Up Dog Card!
As a huge dog lover, I'm always thrilled to find fun, pet-themed embellishments, and Eyelet Outlet truly delivers! For today's project, I've created an adorable pop-up slider card featuring several fantastic dog-related brads.
To bring this interactive card to life, I used a clever die set from Diamond Press. This set allows you to craft a slider mechanism where, with a gentle pull of the tab at the bottom, a cute dog pops up from inside the box, revealing a very special message!
Once the card base was assembled and all the moving pieces were installed, it was time for the best part: adding the perfect brads to match the theme! On the top of the card, I placed two sweet Paw Brads. In the lower right corner, you'll spot a bone and a dog house from the Puppy Brad Set. To balance the scene, I added an adorable puppy from the Kennel Mix Brads on the left, alongside a dog bowl, also from the Puppy Brad Set.
This card was so much fun to create, and the pop-up element adds such a delightful surprise! If you're a dog fan like me, you'll love incorporating these charming brads into your next project.

Furry Friend Halloween Card
I'm a grandma to 4 kiddos as well as a few granddogs. I typically remember them at Christmas with a toy or treat, but today I decided the granddogs needed a Halloween treat, as well.

Having a Ruff Day?
If so, Eyelet Outlet Puppy Brads are guaranteed to cheer you right up! Here they've made a happy home on a pair of preprinted wordart journal cards, along with the supper bowls from our Kennel Mix, some Paw Brads, Heart Brads, and a background of adorable Paw Washi! Anodized Quicklet Eyelets add a little extra touch to the corners and (surprise!) Quicklets don't even need a setter... you can use a pen to attach them!

HBD! Happy Birthday!
Happy Friday, crafty friends! I am still working on building my stash of birthday cards, and it is so fun and easy to do using brads, as there are endless possibilities! 
I have so many dog lovers in my life, so I made a card for one of them. I started by wrapping a strip of white card stock with Dog Washi Tape. I trimmed the front of my card base down and adhered the washi panel to the inside of the card base. This allows the dogs to show on the front of the card when it is closed, and on the inside panel.
I wrapped another panel of white card stock with the washi tape and I die-cut the letters "h, b, d, and !" from that panel. I adhered the HBD diagonally to a wood-grain kraft panel. I embellished the panel with several of the Puppy Brads and Kennel Mix Brads before adhering to the card front.

Over the Rainbow
It's the second week of my (Lauren's) Eyelet Outlet Rainbow Brad project, and this time we're embracing all things Brown, Yellow, Purple and Black!
The brads for each color are as follows:
BROWN: A Compass, a Lion from the Lion, Tiger, Zebra set hanging out with a Monkey and Giraffe from the Jungle Mix, the Doghouse from our Kennel Mix, plus a few sweet Puppy Brads, a Sandcastle and Shell Corner, a vintage Fan from the Telephone and Fan set and a pair of Champagne flutes from the Wedding set. Two strips of Wood Washi and a Skinny Glitter Tape in dark copper.
YELLOW: A background strip of Tape Measure Washi and Chicken Tape holds Work Trucks, Tissues from the TP & Tissues set, a School Bus, the Sun from our Sun and Cloud Brads, a happy little Chick, a Birthday Candle, a Party Hat and finally a Sunflower.
PURPLE: Unicorns from the Unicorn and Rainbow set, some Butterflies and a Mini Butterfly, Grape Brads and a glass of Red from the Wine set, a Fairy Brad and some Water Lillies from the Frog set. The washi selection is Purple Check Tape, plus purple glitter from the Skinny Glitter Tape set and purple flowers from the Skinny Foil Tape set.
BLACK: Our adorable Sushi Washi is flanked by Black and White Check Tape, over which we have a Zebra from the second Jungle Mix, an old-school Telephone, Eye Glass and Sunglass Brads, Music Notes, a Graduation Hat, Video Games and a handsome Spider.
And here's a snap of how our extended rainbow is shaping up so far:

It's a RAINBOW Brad Book
Last year I (Lauren) made an Alphabet Brad Book featuring as many Eyelet Outlet Brads as I could fit onto two dozen or so playing-card-sized ATCs. That project was so much fun I thought I'd do a different version: this time grouping the brads --and a few coordinating EO Washi Tapes-- by color. So without further ado, I present my Eyelet Outlet Rainbow Brad Book!

Live Laugh Woof!
It's Janet here with a friendship card celebrating man's best friend. This card was made with several fun products from the store.
This is a gatefold card, meaning that a flap folds from the left side and the right so that they meet in the middle of the card front. I made a matching panel to put on top. Only the left side is glued to the left flap so that it opens with ease.
Once the card base was constructed, I placed a border of Dog Washi Tape across the top and the bottom of the flaps. Before I glued the center patterned cardstock on to the brown mat, I applied the Live and Woof stickers. I cut the O out of the Love sticker and used a Paw brad instead. I added the dog house from the Kennel Mix brad set and the tallest of the dogs from the Puppy brad set. The cool thing about this set is that it matches the dog washi tape so well! The final touch was Gold Glitter Enamel Dots.
Once completed, I glued the center panel on the brown mat. This way the back side with the brad's prongs are covered with cardstock. Then I glued the left side of the finished center panel to the left flap. This is a quick way to utilize stickers to make a quick but cute card. I picked up the sticker set at the Dollar Tree so it was inexpensive as well as perfect for this card.

Leslie's Valentine/Love Favs!
Hey everybody! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a few more of my favorite projects created with our awesome Eyelet Outlet products! We've been asked to share three of our favorite Valentine/Love projects this time, so before I do that, let me side-track you for a minute. My husband and I are Crazy Cat People. We rescue kittens and cats (present count right now is 18) and we call them our kids, lol! We have 11 inside that enjoy the outdoors in their catio, and seven more ferals/semi-ferals that live in our shed in our fenced back yard with an attached catio. Our four human kids are grown and in their mid- to late-30s with kids of their own, so we've been empty-nesters for quite some time. So, with all this said, two of my three favorites are cat-themed cards! The truth is we love all kinds of animals, so even with one dog-themed card included here, it would be difficult to list these in any kind of 'favorite' order!
My first fav is this awesome kitty card which I created in one of my favorite color combos of black and white with a pop of red. I paired our Cat Brads with our Glitter Black Washi Tape to create this purrfect Valentine or anniversary card!
My second fav is this adorable card featuring our Dog Brads and Kennel Mix Brads which I paired with our Grass Washi Tape, Summer Tree Brads and Sun/Cloud Brads to create a fun scene. I also used a Paw Brad on the inside.
And my third fav is this super cute 'feline good' card which I created in a rose and burgundy color combo and features our Fox & Flowers Wide Washi Tape on the background. I also used our Feline Brads which I paired with a Pink Enamel Heart and White Pearl Bling. As you can tell, this inside sentiment is one of my favorites and gets used a lot! ;)
Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

Halloween Treat Box
Every Halloween I create a special treat for my grandchildren and great nieces and nephews. This year I've decided to make them some darling little skeleton treats that I found on the "Just Add Confetti." I thought they needed a cute treat box, so here's what I came up with.

Colorful ATCs
I (Lauren) love making Artist Trading Cards with my Eyelet Outlet Brads, so this seemed like a good time to make some featuring the newest Spring 2021 Releases: Felines, Kennel Mix, Colored Daisies, Tropical Birds and Reptiles.
"Feline Groovy" features the Feline Brads, obviously, as well as some colorful wide Geometric Tape.
"Bloomin' Awesome" has only one of the three shades of Colored Daisy, but it's colorful enough to keep our attention. I've added some Flower Tape, as well as two older styles of Skinny Tape.
"Doggone It" pairs the doghouse from Kennel Mix with a Long Dog (who's on sale!) and an accent of two plaid washi tape styles as well as some Skinny Heart Tape.
"Squawkward" stars a one of three very handsome parrots from the Tropical Birds Set, as well as boldly spotted Dot Washi Tape and Skinny Tape.
"Birds of a Feather" features a pair of adorable toucans from the Tropical Birds, because TWO toucans are even better than one! I love how they look against thet bold black and white Floral Tape (which is out of stock, alas but This One is quite similar).
And finally, "One in Chameleon" has the eponymous half of our Reptile Brads against some Foil Tape.
