Time to Celebrate!

Good morning, crafters! Let's have some fun with Eyelet Outlet washi tape today! 

I found a pocket watch image in the Cricut image library and I sliced off the face of the watch, leaving only the chain. Using print then cut, I applied the chain in the upper corner as well as toward the bottom of the card. Then I combined a couple of strips of our clock washi tape with a strip of wood grained washi tape applied diagonally across the base of the card before adding the pocket watch brads to the ends of the chains.

Sometimes it's difficult to come up with masculine cards, but I think this one does the trick! You'll find many brads and tapes at Eyelet Outlet for your masculine cards and projects.

Thanks for stopping by today and be sure and check back often to see what our designers have for you!

A Day Full of Treats

Hi everyone! I hope you have been enjoying eh weekend. Today my card has gone to the dogs! If you like dogs, I think you will like this one.

I started with a stamped image of a row of dog houses. After coloring and cutting it out, I created a base to put it on made with Wood Washi Tape. This is a mini-slimline card so I cut a background in light blue and ran it through an embossing folder. Then I used some ink to make the embossed design pop out a little more. I glued the wood and houses to it and then began to add all the dog-gone goodness with brads. I used four different sets for this. See below for the links of all the products used.

He is Risen!

 I love celebrating Easter! I love making memories with my family, giving Easter baskets, enjoying a traditional Easter dinner, and Easter egg hunting! But, more importantly, I love basking in the reason for our celebrating! Our Risen Savior, the hope of the world for indeed He is Risen! 

 

I love creating backgrounds using Eyelet Outlet washi tapes! This background is called "Time for Flowers" and because it is a wider style, I only needed 3 rows. Next, I created my cross using the wood washi adhered to cardstock and my purple drape from the purple washi. I added white flowers in 2 different sizes with a little shading of pink distress ink and a green jewel for embellishment. Lastly, I stamped my Easter greeting! He is Risen! Yes, He is Risen, Indeed! I hope you have a blessed Easter Sunday celebrating with family and friends!

Gratitude Recorded

 Do you keep a November Gratitude Journal? For the last couple of years, I have participated in writing daily gratitude using a traveler's notebook. This year, I decided to do rolodex cards!

I started with creating a rolodex template and began adding my stamps. I added the year, month, and my "focus" on the first rolodex card. For the second card, I used a lined stamp to create my background and lines for journaling.

Lastly, I embellished with Eyelet Outlet's beautiful Autumn themed washi tapes and brads! The possibilities are endless! I hope you are inspired to create a way to cultivate and record your daily gratitude this November.

Happy Birthday Bookshelves

 Hello Ai fans! I'm here today with a fun indoor scene featuring the new Book Washi Tape now at the store. For a long time, EO has carried a popular and loved Book Washi Tape. Recently a second design was added and I've used it here on these die cut shelves. This is also called Book Washi Tape but it is a bit more whimsical. It has little paper airplanes floating along the top of the books. You can see the two washi tape patterns below in greater detail.

Original Book Washi Tape

Newest Book Washi Tape

 The shelves and plants were made with dies in my stash. I decorated them with several brads. On the top shelf I added a Feline Brad and Book Brad. On the second shelf I included a Book Brad and Fan Brad. On the floor I included a cute Resin Mouse with a Happy Birthday Bubble Brad. Next to the mouse is a Puppy Brad. The floor and ceiling were made with Wood Washi Tape.

Autumn Splendor

"Autumn paints in colors that Summer has never seen." 
Ralph Waldo Emerson

I started with stenciling a tree background for my base. I stamped and fussy cut a variety of autumn leaves. Then I added my sentiment circles. After placing my leave collage and sentiment, I added the pumpkin brad! I embellished with 3 fall brads in the top left corner and placed on cardstock lined with the wood grain washi tape!

Llama Love!

 I am totally "hooked" on the new Cactus Brads coming to the store soon! I am lucky enough to get some before they're released and I sure had fun with them. There are two styles - one with flowers and one without. There are two flower colors as well. 

Here, I made a whole cactus garden with Sky Washi - Wide as the backdrop and a bright sun from the Sun & Cloud Brad Set. A ring of Champagne Strip Bling was used around the garden portal. Also used in this card is some beautiful Cactus Washi Tape. I love the vibrant colors in it! The pinks and greens are great for a spring card. The llama scene was made with stickers but I added a green Enamel Heart and a Cloud brad. For a final touch, I used strips of Wood Washi Tape at the top for a mat.

Happy Sunflowers!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a pretty sunflower-themed 'thinking of you' card. The sunflower is my favorite flower so it didn't take long to work up a nice clean and simple card design using these awesome brads! This design is one that would be super easy to mass produce to create a set to give as a gift.

I created a standard A2 top-folding ivory card base and rounded the lower right corner. By now you know I love to do that to add some interest to a card! I cut a slightly smaller ivory panel for the front and adhered a piece of patterned paper to the bottom, added a strip of Wood Washi Tape and layered the panel on dark brown cardstock. I added a die cut stem and several Sunflower Brads, and adhered the layered panel to the card base. I die cut a digital sentiment and popped it up on foam pieces for a little dimension. The final touch was the addition of several small Ivory Enamel Dots. Thanks so much for stopping by - we'll see you next time!

Give 2020 The Boot!

Typically I go for a New Years card with glitz, glimmer, and shine, but this direction seemed more fitting this year!  I'm giving 2020 THE BOOT with an Eyelet Outlet Cowboy Boot brad!  

I also used a few strips of our wood grain washi tape for the background mat and my sign is swinging from an Eyelet Outlet screw brad.  

I'm sure I speak for all of us on the Eyelet Outlet Design Team when I say we appreciate you following us through this tough year and we sincerely wish each of you health and happiness in 2021!

Christmas Tree O Christmas Tree

Today I've brought out the washi tape to create this shimmering gift tag.  The tree is covered in Eyelet Outlet's very popular Glitter Star Washi tape, then some swirl bling brings even more shine.

I used the wood grain washi tape for the tree trunk and across the bottom I used silver glitter washi which I trimmed with my scissors to create the look of drifts of snow.

Thanks for stopping in today!

Pine Cone Tag

It seems like the Eyelet Outlet Design Team has been playing a little game of tag the last few days, and today I'm it!

Here's one that's perfect for a man on your gift giving list this holiday season as it's a little more on the masculine side.  

This tag features our pine cone brads as well as a strip of our popular wood grain washi tape as well as a strip of skinny green check washi tape.

This one would also look great on packages wrapped in kraft paper.  

Thanks for stopping by today!  Show us the tags you've made with Eyelet Outlet products on our Eyelet Outlet Fans Facebook group!

You Rock!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a super cool rockin' birthday card! This card features some awesome washi tape, a jukebox and lots of music! And check it out... there's even a gold record! I'm so smitten!

I rounded the left lower corner on the card base. I love to round just one corner because it adds a little interest. I created a narrow vertical panel for the front of the card and applied several strips of Wood Washi Tape and then finished covering the panel with Brick Washi Tape. I added stamped and die cut jukebox, boomerang, star and jack to the panel, then randomly placed five Vinyl Record Album Brads. I stamped 'You Rock!' on the wall in StazOn ink to complete the panel, and adhered it to the card base.

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

Christmas ATCs with a sparkle

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here sharing a set of three sparkly Christmas ATCs. I'm a confirmed ATC addict and I love creating both cards and coins! 

 

I created one coin and two cards. An artist trading coin is a 2-1/2" circle (I use a punch) and an artist trading card is 3-1/2" x 2-1/2". My standard practice is to always punch two circles or cut two rectangles so that I can decorate one and adhere another one behind it for stability.

To create the 'Joy' coin, I placed a strip of Glitter Tall Tree Washi Tape horizontally across the coin base and added three Penguin Brads and the sentiment die cut from silver foil cardstock. Then I adhered a second punched circle behind it.

To create the 'peace' card, I covered the card base with Wood Washi Tape and then die cut the sentiment into the covered card base, saving the negative space pieces to add back in later. I added three Prancing Deer Brads and just prior to adhering the second rectangle behind it, I added two small strips of Glitter Brown Washi Tape to the extra card so the sparkle would show through the die cut sentiment. Once I adhered the second rectangle, I glued in the negative space pieces to the p, e, a and the second e. 

To create the 'merry' card, I covered the card base with Glitter Gold Dots Washi Tape and added the sentiment die cut from red cardstock along with a thin red cardstock strip across the bottom. I adhered the stamped word Christmas and then added one Cardinal Brad and two Cardinal Profile Brads. Then I adhered a second rectangle behind it. 

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

Honey Do List

It's Kim from Katydid Cards and today I'm pairing some of the Eyelet Outlet goodies with this Art Impressions stamp.  I was thinking of the 'Honey Do" lists women make for their husbands and how (some) husbands handle it:

I used quite a few Eyelet Outlet products on this card.  First, the Toolbox, Tools, Saw and the new Beer brads.  Next the Green Pattern, Skinny Green,  Wide Mountain, Wide Bird, and Wood Washi Tapes.  I finished with the Pearl Bling.

The stamp is appropriately named, Lazy Boy.  I stamped the image in scanned it into my computer and made a few altered to it.  The Eraser tool in the Silhouette design screen was used to remove the bag of chips and remote control.  After that, I printed it twice, once filled with a brown leather pattern and the other blank.  The blank image was colored and fussy cut to place on top.  The cardstock is from Stampin' Up.

Inside, I had a little fun with the sentiment.  Truth in jest!

I look forward to sharing more of my cards with you, so I hope you come back and visit me again.  In the meantime, I wanted to share the link to another card I made which shows the flip side of this lazy boy.
