A Friendship Pick-Me-Up!

Hello, Eyelet Outlet fans! I hope you've had a great week! Leslie here, sharing a pick-me-up card using our Truck Stamp Set with matching Truck Brads along with our Car Brads and some Red Jewel Bling. I know I've mentioned before that I love our stamps and matching brads, or our matching brads and washi tape... these products are so much fun to create with! And I think this card would lift anyone's spirits!

I cut a standard A2 size landscape top-folding card base and an oval die cut from white cardstock along with a rectangle die cut from red cardstock which I layered together. Using the Truck Stamp Set, I stamped the sentiment and highway in black ink and added a Truck Brad and two Car Brads. I adhered the panel to the card front and added Red Jewel Bling to complete the front. 

I cut the same rectangle die cut from red cardstock and an oval die cut from white cardstock for the inside which I layered together. Using the Truck Stamp Set, I stamped the sentiment in black ink, added a Truck Brad in the corner, and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base. 

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

A Little Pickup

This week's card entitled "A Little Pickup" is a fast and easy masculine get-well card.  Yes, indeed, it's fast and easy!  What makes it so fast.....did you know that Eyelet Outlet carries their own stamp sets?  Yes, and pair that with a Red Truck Brad and paper of choice, you'll have a card in no time.

1.  Select two or three coordinating papers of choice appropriate for a masculine card.  (My first strip is 1/4", the plaid is 2", the second dark strip is 1/8", the light green solid is 2 3/8" and the final dark strip is 1/4"; these measurements are dependent upon the size card used.) Cut paper and adhere to card.

2.  Using the Eyelet Outlet Truck Stamp Set, stamp the little pickup sentiment on the card as shown.

3.  Create a double or triple mat (as desired) and pop up an Eyelet Outlet Red Truck Brad on the mat.  Adhere the mat to the card below the sentiment.  Add an Eyelet Outlet Jewel Bling on each side of the truck if desired.

Final Step:  use a stamp of choice or hand print 'get well soon' in the lower portion of the card.

The card is complete and ready for your hand-written and/or stamped message on the inside.  The recipient will not only have a laugh, but also appreciate the work you've done to show you're thinking of them during a challenging time.

Coming and Going

Hi!  It's Kim from Katydid Cards with you today.

I've been stopped for speeding a few times in my life.  Fortunately, I always got away with just a warning.  I was always polite and respectful but I think it was the "deer in the headlights" look I must have had on my face that had the officers take pity on me.  Whatever it was, I'm thankful they saw fit to give me a break.

Here's a little tribute to those occasions.

I used a card base I've never tried before.  I got the cut file in the Silhouette store.  It's different and I'm always looking for something other than the norm to try.  I like it and will definitely use it again.

I used one of my favorite washi tapes on the mats; Map.  The road was created using the Truck Clear Stamp Set.  The brads include the Sun & Clouds, Summer Tree, First Responder, and Pick-Up Truck.   As a finishing touch, I added Bumpy Bling, which I colored with a red Copic marker.

Here's a closer look at all the products I used.

And here's another peek from the side, so you can see how the card is folded.  You wouldn't need a cut file to make this card, just come simple scoring.

I'm going now...but I'll be coming back next week with another card!

Going Places

It's a 3-day Holiday weekend for many people. that means going places - family gatherings, mini-vacations, or to the store to get more groceries for backyard picnics, etc. Whatever your plans, enjoy them and stay safe.

I even added a school bus (one of the new brads at Eyelet Outlet) to the traffic, as a reminder that for some people there's still a wee bit of school left after this weekend.

TGIF crafty friends!  Susie here with a friendship card featuring one of our new stamp sets!

I really love the opportunity to come up with a masculine themed card and the new Truck Stamp set made that super easy!

Being from the south I know that pickup trucks are for ladies, too, however I just loved creating a "buddies" card. I stamped and watercolored the images before adding the pick up truck brad. 

And you have to make the inside as cute as the outside, right?  I used Tire Track Washi tape to create a border, stamped off a few pick up trucks, and then added another flashy red pickup in the bottom right!

You can find all 16 of the new stamp sets HERE.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play today!  Susie
