Bouquets of Happiness

  Hello Crafty Friends - Today I am sharing gift tags created with Eyelet Outlet brads and bling.  Eyelet Outlet has so many products to create projects for many occasions.

I used a gift tag die to create the base of the tags.  Then I created bouquets with rose brads, yellow rose brads, stitched flower brads, and a butterfly brad, accented with die cut leaves.  Glitter enamel dots look like water droplets around the bouquets.  An eyelet reinforces the hole at the top of the tag.

Handmade gift tags elevate gift giving.  The possibilities are endless with Eyelet Outlet products.  Thank you for visiting the blog today.  I hope this inspires you to create a fun project.  Please visit Eyelet Outlet for creative supplies and inspiration.

Hooray Floral Card

 

Hello everyone! Janet here with a fresh flower card that would be fitting for a birthday, a celebration, congratulations, or a note of thanks. The center mat was created with glitter paste and a stencil. Once dry, I cut it and a matching frame with a nested set of decorative frame dies. I added EO brads including Stitched Flowers, Butterflies, Sun and Cloud, and Ladybug. To ground it a little and add more bling, I added large Pearl Brads. The mix of printed flowers, clouds, and bees with the dimensional EO brads really makes this a pretty scene.

Butterfly Brads

STOP AND SMELL THE FLOWERS

 

This week’s card has an artistic/tropical feel to it.  I cut out bits and pieces of cardstock and placed them on top of the woman focal point.  

I added several of the Stitched Flower brads, as well as many different jewel, pearl and stippled bling.

 Such a simple card to make but the beautiful colors, fun embellishments from Eyelet Outlet make it a stunning creation.

Blessings

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and bringing lots of food
and family blessings. This card is from Jan's digis and I 
really liked the sentiment in the set.

Everything was colored in Copic Markers including the 
paper yellow flowers. I also added some uncolored ones off the
card so you could see the color difference. The paper flowers
are great at Eyelet Outlet and each package has 
different sizes that are fun for layering.

Brads are a big item on this card and include pilgrim hats,

 stitched flowers and leaves. Also included are black 
enamel dots from Eyelet Outlet.

Here is your shopping list from Eyelet Outlet

See you next Monday and keep crafting.

Hoppy Easter, Everybunny!

Eyelet Outlet Pastel Rabbit Brads are one of my (Lauren's) favorite styles for Easter, and... they're on sale! I love how the five colorful bunnies add instant interest to my card, and how well they pair with the shades of EO Bright Stitched Flowers and Minis (the latter are also on sale!) Heart Brads and colorful Enamel Dots.

I used two sizes of circle punches to frame each Rabbit Brad with a few flowers, dots and hearts; but this design would work equally well with Chicks, Brown Rabbits, Colored Eggs, or pretty much ANY Eyelet Outlet brad style you love!

Merci Bouquet Triple Play

It's probably impossible to have too many Birthday or Thank You greetings on hand, so whenever I (Lauren) think of a fun idea, I like to make multiple versions. Since there are plenty of different Eyelet Outlet Flower Brad styles, when I thought of "Merci Bouquet" I was spoiled for choice!

I used the same Wood Washi and Mini Ladybug Brads in all three versions, but changed up the patterned paper backgrounds to match the flower styles. For my first card I made a bouquet of Colored Daisy Brads.

My second card features our classic Bright Daisy Flower Brads, which are on sale!

My third card combines Fall Stitched Flower Brads (they come in Minis and Brights, too!) with petals cut from a green Solid Color Paper Flower to act as foliage.

Check out all of the Flower Brad styles, not to mention the Flower Tapes, in the Eyelet Outlet Online Store!

Lauren Bergold

loves ALL the styles 

of flower brads!

A TOUCAN of Thanks!

There's new brads in the Eyelet Outlet store!  Today I'm bringing you a card with the beautiful Toucan Brad from the Tropical Bird set.  I also used the Eyelet Outlet Palm Tree Brad and Stitched Flower Brad.

For the sky, I used strips of our Cloud patterned washi tape.  And I thought this particular flower washi looked so pretty and tropical that I added a strip of it as well.  The larger palm tree and the tropical leaf border are from the Cricut image library.

Stay tuned in coming days for more inspiration from the Eyelet Outlet Design Team and all the new brads!

Cacti for Everyone!

Last week I (Lauren) treated myself to a fun Lawn Fawn Mini Stamp Set with a cactus in it, entirely because I knew I had not one, but two, beautiful styles of Cactus Tape from Eyelet Outlet!

My first card features this slightly kawaii version of Cactus Tape with sweet little cacti in their pots. I chose all of my colors specifically to coordinate with the tape, including the addition of Fall Stitched Flowers and Minis (the latter are on sale!) in that pretty mustard yellow. I neatly lined up three strips of the tape on plain white cardstock, then flanked them with two strips of Star Gold Washi. To give a slightly more dynamic feel to the accent panel, I trimmed it at the top and bottom so that it appears my Star Tape is a slightly narrower width.

I made a similar panel for my second card, using Cactus and Flamingo Washi and Green and Gold Foil Tape. This time I rounded the corners on one side, as well, and added the accent panel towards the left, rather than centering it on my A2 card. I added a Flamingo Brad, some pink Heart Pearl accents and a sentiment trimmed from XO Gold Foil Tape.

There are so many cool and interesting ways to incorporate Washi Tape in your cards, and luckily Eyelet Outlet has *hundreds* of fabulous styles to choose from!

loooooooves washi tape!

No Foolin'!

The calendar says April first, but we are getting SERIOUSLY cute over here, thanks to the Eyelet Outlet Pastel Rabbits and Bright Stitched Flower Brads! ♥

Inchies are always a fun way to showcase small items like brads, and making a grid of inchies is a nice way to fill a card. I used a 1" and a 1.5" square punch on lots of little paper scraps in shades that coordinate with the adorable Pastel Rabbits. But before I got to that point, I did a fast mock up to pair the Bunnies with the Stitched Flowers so that there were no repeats next to each other, then I snapped a pic with my phone so I would remember!

I left the last two (or perhaps the first two?) squares of the grid empty, so there would be a place to put my sentiment. After I attached all the Bunny Inchies with foam tape, I embellished with some tiny Pearl Bling and mounted the whole thing on a white 6" square card.

I hope you'll hop over to the Eyelet Outlet Store and check out all of the fab Easter goodies!

Hippity Hoppity...

...Easter's on it's way! But there's still plenty of time to make cards, and plenty of Eyelet Outlet Brads to make them extra special! Here's my (Lauren's) first Easter card of 2020:

My card features Rabbit Brads, Colored Egg Brads, Stitched Flower Brads with Mini Leaves, Sun and Cloud Brads, plus a couple of Mini Butterflies. But there are many more varieties, including Easter Bubble Brads, Chocolate Bunnies, Pastel Rabbits (currently on sale!), un-dyed Egg Brads, and even Bacon, Egg and Toast Brads which aren't very Eastery but go nicely with the Eggs! Something super-cute which might emerge from an egg is an adorable tiny Chick Brad... coming soon to the EO Store!

There's something for everyBUNNY at Eyelet Outlet! ♥

It's that season - fall harvest hits many people hard. Sneezing. Coughing. What makes a person feel better? Well, homemade chicken noodle soup, for one thing.... but also a fun Get Well card.

Washi-ing You a Happy Birthday

I love the variety of Washi Tape that can be found at Eyelet Outlet. Have you looked around the site? WOW! There are rolls and rolls and rolls of Washi Tape. You can see the variety HERE.

So, with all that Washi Tape to choose from, why not get creative with it, right?

I used five different designs of Washi Tape (they don't even necessarily look like they would go together but the overall look works) and wove them in and out to create a fun design for this birthday card.

Have a Fabulous Birthday

I love flowers - tulips and daffodils are blooming in our town, a sure sign that Spring is here! The trees are blooming, too - but of course, they aren't flowers. LOL!

Because I like flowers so much, I really like Eyelet Outlet's Stitched Flower Brads! They also come in a mini version, which is just way too much fun, but the ones I've used on my card are the larger size.

In the close-up, you can see the stitching!

Of course a card needs more than flowers, so I also used Eyelet Outlet Fancy Long Bling for some sparkle and pizazz. I also added a tiny bit of Skinny Washi Tape for a bit of boldness. That black/white just makes things pop, in my opinion.

Happy and Hoppy

Easter is fairly late this year, which means we have plenty of time to make Easter cards! But when you see all the fun Eyelet Outlet Easter products, I (Lauren) don't think you'll want to wait!

I started with an Easter-themed journal card... surely those are the best time-saver EVER for cardmakers? I stamped and fussycut the sweet bunny from Pretty Pink Posh's Holiday Pals set, and then I got straight to the fun embellies! To the pre-printed striped egg and flowers I added Stitched Flower Brads, Mini Stitched Flowers, a Pastel Rabbit, an Egg Brad decorated with a strip of Skinny Washi and of course you cannot send a bunny out into the world without a carrot, right? So here's one from the Vegetable Brads set. I also added in an 1/8" Round Brad everywhere there was a little circle on the journal card... which means that each of the printed flower centers AND all of the scallops around the edge got one! I added a few pastel layered mats before mounting the whole thing to a 5.5" square card I had adorned with neatly lined up strips of Pink and Green Zig Zag Tape!

I hope you'll hop on over to the Eyelet Outlet shop and see what Easter goodies are in store!
