Devil or Angel

 Here's a fun little birthday card using Eyelet Outlet's brand new Angel Brads and some of our Swirl Cupcake Brads.  

The birthday girl is fighting with her conscience about whether to have one cupcake or two. I created this card in Cricut Design Space with images from the Cricut image library.  

If you're a Cricut crafter, too, I've shared the file for this project on my Cricut profile. 

See all of the newly released brads at Eyelet Outlet here and follow us in the coming weeks as the Design Team shares inspiration on using the new products!

The Sweetest and the Coolest

Cardmaking doen't have to be complicated; all you really need is a great sentiment, a couple of Eyelet Outlet Brads and a few coordinating tapes, et voila! This pair of thank you cards play on the words "Sweetest" (with an EO Cupcake Swirl) and "Coolest" (featuring an Ice Cream Brad) set into small diecut hearts, with a tape stack consisting of Pink Checked Tape, Skinny Hearts from the Valentine Set, multicolor Chevron Tape, adorably whimsical Elephant Washi and some Tiny Hearts. Mats of Pink and White Dot Tape and Pink Checked Tape complete the design.

Need a brad to complement YOUR favorite sentiment? The Eyelet Outlet Online Store has exactly what you're looking for!

NOT Just for Cards!

Eyelet Outlet Washi Tape, Paper Flowers and Brads, that is. You can also use them to make customized gift bags, like this one. Just cover plain white cardstock with neat strips of tape (this variety is Happy Birthday Foil Washi)... print out an initial in your favorite font (this one's called Chicken Pie and was free on dafont.com)... trace and cut. Embellish with a few shades and sizes of Solid Color Paper Flowers held on with Candle, Party Hat and Cupcake or Cupcake Swirl Brads. For even more color and pizazz, diecut hearts from a coordinating tape, like Pink Checked Washi and use one repeat of the Birthday Tape to create your sentiment strip. Scatter a few Round Sequins and you're good to go. And yes, all of the above looks pretty good on a matching birthday card, as well!  

There are brads, tapes, flowers, sequins, bling and more for every style, theme or occasion you can possibly imagine in the EO Store... you should probably check that out!

Today I'm bringing you a little different twist on a typical box card. This is a box card tucked into a z-fold card. It's fun because it allows me to build a scene around it. This is a file from Silhouette called 3D Box Card Oven. There are lots of EO goodies in this card. Let's go through them!

Happy Birthday Cupcakes and Presents!

 

January is an important time at my house because it's my husband's birthday month. It's a tradition that his birthday card has a doxie dog on it. It began decades ago when our fur baby was a doxie. Our beloved Tigger has been gone a long time but he is always remember during Steve's birthday. Funny how traditions begin but that's the story behind ours.

I saw this ephemera piece in a paper pad I have in my stash and of course my head danced with all kinds of way to make this really special using Eyelet Outlet brads, washi tapes and bling. I love it and I think my husband will too! It's so easy to take something good and make it great with EO embellishments.
