Maybe you can't actually spend today at the beach, but... you can use Eyelet Outlet Shell Brads, Sea Shore Brads and Sea Gulls to make a beautifully beachy card, instead. Copper Glitter Tape makes perfectly sparkly mats and, in celebration of Earth Day, the background photo was saved from a catalog cover before recycling!
Santa's taking a break from all the holiday prep to enjoy a bit of surfing, and maybe a few treats, too. Santa's tropical island has am Eyelet Outlet Tall Palm Tree Brad behind a Sandcastle; and Santa's brought a Candy Cane Brad along, just in case he needs extra energy. The background features Gingerbread Washi and Ho Ho Ho Tape, adorned with Gingerbread and Peppermint Candy Brads. Surf's up!
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.
Life IS better at the beach and summery cards ARE better with Eyelet Outlet Summer Vacation beachy brads! Both of these beachy keen cards feature our Shell Corner Brads and have twine accents strung through a trio of colorful old school 1/8" Round Eyelets; with mats of Shell Washi and extra wide Sky Tape.
The first card also features both shapes from our Seagull Brad Set as well as both Sun and Cloud from that set.
The best place on a hot summer day is the beach. I composed
this beach scene with images from Peddlers Den and a
life guard station die cut. I colored the scene
with water colors.
Embellishments from Eyelet Outlet really
brough this scene to life. The brads include both the
flip flops and the sea shells. I topped off the life
guard station with the string pearls from Eyelet Outlet.
To finish up the card I used my favorite blue glitter
washi tape from Eyelet Outlet along with some
pretty jewel brads.

Life IS better at the beach, but the next best thing is a beautiful beachy card, bedecked with Eyelet Outlet Brads. Shell Brads, Shell Corners, Sea Shore, flying and standing Seagulls and Tall Palm Brads add coastal flavor to faux polaroids matted with Sparkle Gold Glitter Tape add glamor. A Wide Wood Washi background with a twine border is set off with colorful, old-school 1/8" Round Eyelets and a scattering of Multi-sized Pearls completes the design.
But if you can't make it there this week, here's a little bit of beach coming your way, in card form. Featuring Eyelet Outlet Shells, Shell Corners and Sea Shore Brads, clustered with stamped shells and diecut coral, augmented by elegant White Pearl Swirl Bling. A double helping of washi tape backgrounds complete the design, with Wood Washi and Shell Tape teaming up for the perfect finish.

First is a Happy Father's Day card that's just perfect for the Dad that likes to be on the lake. I love the fishing and fish brads that I used on this card. Read how this one was put together and the products that were used on the blog post HERE.
