You never know what issues people are dealing with, but if your issue is the desire to collect adorable paper crafting embellishments, we've got tissues!  

Today I've paired the awesome tissue box brad from the Toilet Paper & Tissue brad set with a couple of our Emotion brads. I added a few tears near the sad face and an enamel heart sends a caring message.

These Valentines Will BLOW YOU AWAY!

 Classroom Valentines often need to be non-food treats and I have two cute ones for you today that will "Blow You Away!"

First up is a cute little felt tissue holder that I embellished with a funny face and Cricut infusible ink transfer sheet. Infusible ink works great on acrylic felt, by the way!  The tissue holder fit perfectly into a regular zipper snack bag and I created a little topper for the bag that I embellished with a heart brad and a tissue box brad from Eyelet Outlet.  I created this entire project on my Cricut Maker and if you're a Cricut crafter and would like to give it a try, too, Here's the link to the file that I shared in the Cricut Community.  

Next up is a funny little Valentine with a bookmark who's embellished with small eye brads and eyeglasses from Eyelet Outlet.  I also added a little black enamel heart.  I've shared this file on my Cricut profile as well.  

Thanks for stopping in today and be sure and stay tuned because coming soon there will be new brads revealed that we're super excited about!!

I Like the Way You Roll!

 Today I have a fun card that plays on the toilet paper theme again. I don't know why but I can't get enough of these adorable toilet paper rolls with the cute little quilting in them. They're just so cute!

This card starts with a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of white cardstock. I applied EO's Flower Washi Tape - Wide at an angle and folded over the tape overhange on the back of the cardstock. Then I applied strips of skinny washi  to hide the seams from the Skinny Heart Washi set. This comes in several colors in a set from the store. It is pretty and delicate with foil hearts and scrolling. Then I coated the chipboard letters with chalk paint and applied them on top of the panel leaving room at the top for the black heat embossed sentiment. I applied a short piece of Jewel Bling Strip in pink next to the sentiment and set the two Toilet Paper Brads. I matted the panel on black cardstock and then applied the whole panel on a pink A2 sized cardbase.

This card may be about toilet paper but the large photo-real flowers are a nice change of pace as we start dreaming about spring. I just felt so good working with this tape! And bonus! This one goes together fast.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Yep, let's stay classy through this!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing one final clean and simple card created with the new quarantine-inspired brads in the store along with some glitter washi tape, fancy long bling and pearls to appeal to your classy, glitzy feminine side! This is the last card in my series of CAS cards paying tribute to our frontline healthcare workers. This one is somewhat light-hearted with computer-generated front and inside sentiments, and a stamped addition to the sentiment on the front. ;)

I created a standard A2 size top-folding card base from black cardstock. The computer-generated front and inside sentiments were printed on white cardstock and the panels trimmed. I stamped 'stay classy' in black ink at an angle above the front sentiment. I added a strip of Gold Glitter Skinny Washi Tape and Pink Fancy Long Bling-Pearls and Jewels vertically down the left side, added two Toilet Paper Brads just to the left of the sentiment, and adhered the panel to the card base. The finishing touch was the addition of several single pearls from a White Pearl Bling Strip.

I embellished the inside panel with a single strip of the Gold Glitter Skinny Washi Tape and adhered it to the inside of the card base. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

A literal and true sentiment!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing another clean and simple card created with quarantine-inspired brads that are new in the store along with some wide washi tape and bling to make it all girly! This is another card in my series to pay tribute to our frontline healthcare workers. And yes, this sentiment is literal and true - "crap" does happen but we always seem to get through it! ;)

I created a standard A2 size top-folding card base from black cardstock. The sentiment is from a digital stamp set so I printed it on white cardstock and trimmed the panel so the sentiment was in the lower right corner. I applied a strip of Wide Music Washi Tape horizontally across the panel and then added a piece of White Pearl Bling Strip at the top and bottom of the washi tape. I added two Toilet Paper Brads to the left of the sentiment and then adhered the panel to the card base. I finished the card front with several individual pearls from the bling strip.

I embellished the inside panel with a half-strip of the Wide Music Washi Tape and a narrow strip of black cardstock, and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base. Thanks so much for stopping by today - we'll see you next time!

Hello?

Ever since I got the new Eyelet Outlet Toilet Paper and Tissue Brad set, I have been humming this old Lionel Richie tune to myself. I finally turned it into a card for you today. 

As usual, EO has the perfect brads for this card including the Music Note Brads. The notes work so well on many cards. I'm constantly use them!

The window flap on this is easy to make yourself. You do this by aligning your top die cut plate to end on the die where you want the cut to stop. There's no pressure on the die once it is rolled to that area and the cut ends. If you've not heard of this before it's called partial die cutting. There are many videos you can find on YouTube showing this if you search for that term. 

I hope you have a great Super Bowl Sunday!

A 'get well' fun fold!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a get well fun fold card guaranteed to make a sick friend or family member feel better! This triple fold card has a belly band and features some of the new quarantine brads in the store, along with enamel dots which are some of my personal favs!

I created the card base from brown cardstock and embellished the front panel and side flaps with coordinating patterned papers. I created a die cut element on which I stamped the 'get well' sentiment and affixed a Kleenex Brad and Mask and Soap Brads, and added several White Enamel Dots. I embellished the corners with punched hearts and slightly larger enamel dots. I embellished the inside panel with cardstock strips and punched hearts, stamped the sentiment, and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by - we'll see you next time!

Roll With it

I (Lauren) suspect that one of the things we'll always remember about the year 2020 is the Great Toilet Paper Crisis! Luckily we now have Eyelet Outlet TP and Tissue Brads to commemorate this event and to perpetrate some fairly diabolical puns, like these:

My first pun idea involved the TP, so I used the labelmaker to say, "just roll with it" and affixed the text and the brad to a faux polaroid cut from some older patterned paper. For some reason the idea of fluffy white clouds popped into my head, so my background and diecuts are clouds.

I suspect I will use the Tissue Brads most in the context of get well cards, but for this first time out, I wanted something that sort of went with the encouragement theme of the first card; so I went with, "it will blow over".

Stay tuned to the Eyelet Outlet Blog for the next few weeks, I know all of the designers will have their own unique ideas on how to use these fun brads!

can never resist a pun!

Deja Poo??

Hi EO fans! Well EO has released their much requested Tissue Paper & Tissue brads! Now we have a full arsenal of Covid 19 related items with last month's release of the Mask, Hand Sanitizer & Soap Brad sets.

I can't tell you how much I giggled while I was making this card. My only child is a boy and I've been living with potty humor since he was 5 and would yell, "Underwear!" and break into fits of laughter! Yes, I've been in training for years for this brad release! The Toilet Paper & Tissue brads are perfect! LOL! 

I cut the mats and the poo icon from Cricut Design Space. Making a custom card like this is so much easier with their library of characters and designs. The words on the scallop front was a print then cut piece I created as well. I cut an extra set of o's out of the same brown cardstock as the poo icon and glued them on to the toilet paper rolls in the title. Of course I had to put some googly eyes on the poo too! Oh, the giggles!

Toilet Paper & Tissue Brads
Heart Brads
Heart Shaped Enamel Dots - Pink

Have a great week!
