Life is Better at the Beach

Here's a summery card idea that's SHORE to please: Diecut chunky letters from Eyelet Outlet Wide Water Washi adorned with a strip of torn Glitter Gold Tape to serve as sand. Scatter Shell Brads and Sea Shore Brads along the bottom, as if they've been washed up by the tide. Augment with Water Splats and a handsome Flamingo Brad. Place the stamped portion of the sentiment above, and surround it with a flying Seagull plus Sun and Cloud Brads.

Beachy Keen Shopping List:

A Summer Scene in a Mini Slimline Card

Today’s card features some of my favorite outdoor-themed brads from the Eyelet Outlet store, all packed into one charming little landscape! I created it on one of my go-to card sizes—3 1/2" x 6", known as a mini slimline. Don’t let the smaller size fool you—these cards are the perfect canvas for creating perfectly detailed scenes.

For this summery card, I built a camping scene complete with Camper Brads nestled on the ridge. To bring the forest to life, I mixed in both Pine Tree Brads and Summer Tree Brads alongside some die-cut cardstock trees for added dimension and texture.

Down in the grassy area, I added Boot Print Brads—two footprints that hint at an early morning hike or a casual stroll through the woods. And up in the sky? A Compass Brad, doing double duty as both a whimsical take on the sun and a nod to wayfinding—perfect for a camping theme!

This scene may be mini, but it’s full of charm and summer spirit. I love how brads can bring so much personality and detail to a card with just a few small touches.

Sizzling Thanks! A BBQ Host Card Made Easy!

It's officially grilling season, and I'm loving it! To thank the awesome hosts of an upcoming BBQ, I whipped up this fun and easy card. The secret to the effortless design? The brilliant Beer Washi Tape, which I used to create a fantastic border!

On top of that, I added a perfectly themed BBQ cardstock. To capture the essence of a summer cookout, I added three simple words that say it all. And the best part? The adorable BBQ Brads featuring little aprons and grills! To complete the celebratory vibe, I included a couple of bottles from the Beer Brads set.

This card came together so quickly and easily, making it the perfect way to show your appreciation to any BBQ host!
