Merci Bouquet!
Fast, easy Thank You cards are simple when you pair Eyelet Outlet flower brads and washi tapes! Extra wide Sunflower Tape makes for beautiful diecuts and what could be better than Sunflower and Leaf Brads to adorn them? Or, try Coloring Book Washi with Stitched Flower Brads and a sweet Mini Bee to finish the design.

Good Days Start With Coffee and You!
Hello everyone! I'm a HUGE coffee drinker. If my day doesn't start with a good cup of Joe, my day is not off to an ideal start by any measure. I know I'm not alone. Fortunately it's Eyelet Outlet to the rescue for all my coffee themed cards! EO has many products that are coffee related or coordinate nicely with the theme.
Washi Tape doesn't need to just be an afterthought. Here it's the star of the card, with several rolls combined together to make a great background. Adding coffee brads and coordinating enamel dots make the most of the kuokka stamp which is from Kat Scrappiness. Here's a complete list of products used for this card.

Sunny Hello
So happy to use these glorious sunflowers from Eyelet Outlet.
I love the wide sunflower washi tape. I had to make
a quick thank you to someone and just picked out a
smaller card and used the washi tape across it.
Came out so pretty and so simple for a quick card.
On this card it added a wonderful border
I colored in my image which already included sunflowers
so it was easy to embellish with the great sunflower brads.
I needed something other than yellow so did the
die cut in the background in blue. At then end
I added small black gems to the flowers on the image.

Sunflower Wishes!
Hello, crafty friends! Are you a fan of sunflowers? I sure am! I love how cheerful they are, and one of the most amazing sights is to see a field full of them, so tall and proud as they reach for the sun!

Get Well Soon Sunflower Style!
Hey everybody! I hope last week was a good one and you're enjoying your weekend! Leslie here, back as a guest designer (filling in for Janet), sharing a mini slimline get well card using our Sunflower Washi Tape, Sunflower Brads, and brown Sequins. Sunflowers are my favorite of all flowers, and I can't resist the urge to create cards with them!
I cut a 3-1/2″ x 6″ mini slimline card base from heavyweight white cardstock along with four die cut frames which I adhered together. I cut a layering panel from lighter weight white cardstock and covered it with Sunflower Washi Tape. I added a die cut sentiment along with a Sunflower Brad and several brown sequins which completed the card front.
I cut the inside panel from white cardstock along with layering panels from yellow and brown cardstock which I adhered together. I embellished the white cardstock panel with a strip of the Sunflower Washi Tape which I trimmed along the flower line, and then stamped the sentiment in brown ink.

Bloomin' Beautiful
Is it just me (Lauren) or do Sunflowers seem to perfectly capture the transition between summer and fall? I especially love Eyelet Outlet Sunflower Brads and surely there's nothing better to pair them with than this gorgeous new extra-wide Sunflower Washi Tape? Though admittedly, the bright autumnal Sunflower Washi and Sunflower Glitter Tape are also quite lovely. I scattered a few tiny gold Star Sequins around, (because Sequins, imo, are ALWAYS a good idea!) and my flat, floral card is ready to mail.
If sunflowers aren't your thing, I'm pretty confident we've got one or two other items in the Eyelet Outlet Online Store that will appeal. And don't forget to be on the lookout for the EO Booth at a tradeshow near you!

Seize the Daisy!
I thought it would be fun to show that you can use washi tape instead of patterned paper for backgrounds. While the team has shown that often, this is a slight twist since I've used five different washi tape backgrounds in this case. The combinations of backgrounds is really only limited by your color choices and imagination.
If you'd like to try to do a similar card style, you can use Card Sketch #2 from Mary at Cardz TV. Just search Cardz TV sketches to find her free sketches. She has several fun ideas to try.
To make this card, I cut the rectangles in white cardstock at the sizes indicated in the sketch. Then I chose my washi tapes and applied them to the cardstock. I trimmed off excess tape. Then I stamped the pots, colored them with Copic markers and drew in stems and leaves. I added Colored Daisy brads, Mini Bee Brads and Funky Bee brads. I also stamped the sentiment and added Mini Leaf brads. The shopping list below links to all the brads and washi tape I used.
Once all the pieces were complete, I placed them on an A2 card base and glued them in place. The flower pots and sentiment were then added to the front. It's a fun card that would be great to send to anyone just to say hi, thanks or to let them know you're thinking of them.

A Bag Full of Fall Fun!
Hello Ai Fans! It's Janet here with a fun gift bag idea. It's more popular than ever to give special little gifts to certain little pumpkins at Halloween. Here's an idea how to turn a plain brown paper bag from the Dollar Tree into something special.
I made the shaker by combining two pumpkin files in Cricut Design Space. In the background, I applied strips of glitter Sunflower Washi Tape. This is one of my most favorite fall washi designs in the store. It's so cheerful! I used it as the background for the lace on the top and bottom also.
What would a shaker be without shaker bits? I chose to use the Pumpkin Sequins from the store. I also scrunched up three of the smallest black Paper Flowers, glued them together and applied glitter glue to the edges of the petals before applying them to the stem. Finally I added a beautiful Sunflower Brad as an accent to the raffia bow. I really love how this one turned out.

Thankful Tag
I have a tag for you today that celebrates gratitude toward someone special. This is a chipboard tag sized 3" x 4 3/4." It would be great on a package or even displayed amongst other fall decorative items in your home.

Here Comes the Sun(flowers)
These cards have quite a bit more white space than is usual for me and the white space is actually white in color, as well! But I had the beautiful Sunflower Brads and the equally lovely wide Glitter Sunflower Tape, so it's not like I needed a whole lot more than that. For my first card I affixed the brads to a circle of watercolor paper I custom painted with some very diluted Lemon Yellow ColorBurst. I added diecut leaves, a wordfetti sentiment and lots of Champagne Jewel Swirl Bling; with everything clustered on top of a little collage of Skinny Washi Tapes in shades of yellow and orange.

Sunflower Scarecrow
Now, about my tips:
Tip #1 - The Sunflower Washi Tape is glittery, which is great, but for a scarecrow card it just seemed a bit too glitzy. My solution was to put a piece of vellum over the top of it. Then I added the Checked Washi Tape over the top of the washi to help secure everything.
Tip #2 - I wanted leaves for my sunflowers to coordinate with the leaf on the scarecrow's hat, but I didn't have any leaves. No problem. I had green Washi Tape. I folded the tape so it was "sealed" and then I hand cut two leaves.
I then poked a hole in toward the end of each leaf and added it to one of the Sunflower Brads.
Then it was just a matter of attaching the brad to the card like normal. How fun is that!?!?!
