Magical Tea House


 Hello EO friends! Today I have made a magical card full of whimsy and cheerful fun. It features a tea house perfectly made for two cute Girl Gnome Brads. Flying above in the blue sky are the new Mini Butterfly Brads.

To make this card, I first cut a piece of white cardstock 3 1/4" x 4 1/2." I cut it in half to form two long narrow pieces. I applied strips of Red/White Dot Washi to one strip and Strawberry Washi to the other. Then I cut each strip in half so that I had 4 rectangles of equal size. I placed the pieces on my score board and spaced each the same apart from each other, using the score lines as a guide. To keep them in place I attached them each together with a strip of washi tape. Be sure to lay out the pieces right side up as you do this. Next I added foam tape strips to the back of each rectangle and then I placed them as one piece on a white A2 card base. Once in place, I removed the washi tape that held each piece in place. This technique makes each rectangle perfectly spaced without any hassle or guessing. It's an old cardmaking technique but a good one!

Bless This Kitchen


The madness of Christmas is past and I feel like it's time to hunker down at home to cocoon a little. In my house, that always means some cleaning and cooking some of our favorite foods! I'm also always in need of some all occasion cards that I can use to send hellos or thank you notes. The card I've made today is perfect for that and it gives you the warm and fuzzies - or at least it does me. 

This is super easy to make with a pre-printed tag and some EO washi tapes and brads. I extended a tag I had in my stash with a few strips of Dot Washi Tape. The extension gave me a place to build my scene with two Canister Brads, a spoon from Baking Brads, and a pot and mitt from the Cooking Brads. The background was made with three other washi tapes as listed below. The blue borders were something I've had in my stash for a long time so I was glad to find a good use for them. Finally, I added a mat behind the tag and the main polka dot panel and boom! Card done! Gotta love it when a simple card comes together.

This happy little scene also features Book Brads and Book Washi; the yellow flower from our Frog Set; and a Green Pattern Tape armchair sitting on a Strawberry Tape throw rug atop a Wood Washi floor. The coordinating envelope also has a strip of Cat Tape.

A Little Note - Big Thanks!

 


Hello EO fans! I'm excited to be here today to show off a card using some of Eyelet Outlet's versatile products. I made this card using a quilting die. Before I cut the pieces out, I covered white cardstock with three different washi tapes. I used Flower & Feather Washi Tape, Blue Dot Washi Tape, and Strawberry Washi Tape. Then I cut the die out three times so that I could mix the pieces together to get the quilted look you see here. I picked three complimentary colored and patterned washi tapes

Once I inlaid all the quilt pieces, I heat embossed the sentiment on vellum and attached it to the card. The final touches are a Blue Glitter Enamel Dot, a Red Heart Brad and a Giraffe Brad. Love it!

Have an Egg-cellent Birthday!

Happy Saturday my Eyelet Outlet friends! I started a day this past week with a breakfast of eggs, bacon, toast, and coffee. It all got me to thinking that EO has brads for all those items and that I should make a card with them! I happen to have a pan stamp in my stash and it is was just the right size to add Bacon, Egg, & Toast Brads. I added a Coffee Brad and a fork from the Silverware Brads to make the breakfast complete!

For additional decoration, I created borders out of Strawberry Washi Tape and added strips of Skinny Glitter Washi Tape. Last I added a red Star Brad as an accent. I adhered the finished panel to a red A2 card base. It looks like a yummy birthday is ahead for the person getting this one!
