Sweet & Sparkly: A Macaron-Inspired Thank You Card!

 

Who doesn't love a good macaron? Those delicate, colorful treats are a feast for the eyes and the taste buds. Today, I've brought that same whimsical charm to my card making with a thank you that's as sweet as it is sparkly!

First, let's talk about the star of the show: EO's macaron washi tape border. A soft strip of pastel border , adorned with tiny, perfect macarons in all their glory sets a fun and charming tone, making this card feel like a little box of confectionery happiness. It pairs perfectly with the patterned paper used for the card front.

Next up, I've added a touch of warmth and sophistication with Coffee Brads. These aren't just any brads; they evoke cozy coffee shop vibes, perfectly complementing the sweet treats. They add the perfect focal point to the design.

And because every good card needs a little sparkle, I've incorporated glitter enamels in pink, gold, and blue. These little dots of shimmer are like tiny jewels scattered across your card. The pink adds a playful pop, the gold brings a touch of elegance, and the blue offers a cool, calming contrast. 

Thanks for joining me here today and please visit the EO store for all your brads, washi tape, bling and paper flowers!


Happy Creating!

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

Eyelet Outlet Glitter Tape and Winter Wildlife Brads are not JUST for Christmas, this is the perfect time to employ them for post-holiday thank you cards! The mama and baby Polar Bear Brads are right at the edge of the wide Glitter Tall Trees Tape, framed up by Glitter Gold Tape. The handsome Deer has paused near a Snowy Tree Brad in front of some gorgeous Glitter Winter Tape (like the Tall Trees Tape it's 1.25" wide... perfect for scenes!) framed by Glitter Blue.


Whether you need to make fast Thank You cards or just get moving on winter birthdays and Valentines, the Eyelet Outlet Online Store has all the embellishments you could wish for!

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. 


 The possible Eyelet Outlet Brad and Tape combinations are only limited by your imagination!

Thanks a PUNCH!

 Here's a fun, fresh and fruity card featuring our brand new Eyelet Outlet Lemonade and Fruit Brads. On this card, the lemonade pitcher is cleverly standing in as fruit punch, to make the pun in the sentiment work.

The same pitcher can also magically transform into Margaritas when paired with the green glasses in our Cocktail Brad set; and don't forget there are Beer Brads, Wine Brads, Coffee and Iced Coffee,  Champagne (in our Wedding Set) and Soda Brads, so EVERYONE can enjoy their favorite beverages this summer in the Eyelet Outlet Online Store!

would really enjoy an Arnold Palmer just now!

Butterfly Thanks


 Happy Saturday Eyelet Outlet Fans! Today I wanted to use butterflies in my card. Like many other people, I think butterflies are one of the nicest things you can use on a card. 

To construct this, I used a Spellbinders Glimmer Set to put rainbow foil on white cardstock. The pattern is a pretty floral. I also glimmered the sentiment and cut it out.  

I colored the flowers with Copic Markers and then I made the blue background in the middle by covering a strip of white cardstock in Sparkle Blue Glitter Washi Tape. I cut it out with a die included in the set. 

Next I cut a rectangle out of the middle using a stitched die. On that piece I attached Butterfly Brads and Blue Pearl Bling-Multi in two corners. Then I edged an A2 card base with more Sparkle Glitter Washi Tape before gluing the cut frame on top. I put foam tape on the back of the middle panel and adhered it to the card. This give is a nice pop-up look. I added a Butterfly Bright Brad to the sentiment before attaching it with foam tape to the card front too.
