Hello friends! Today I am sharing some fun creations using Wtape designs from Eyelet Outlet.

For the first card I just started layering the different widths of Washi tape across a white piece of cardstock I cut at 4 x 5 1/3. I added the Hello Sentiment die from Mama Elephant and a gold heart to accent.

Supplies: Eyelet Outlet Washi Tape, Mama Elephant hello die

Adhesive: Therm-O-Web Memory Tape Runner XL  and 3D White Foam Squares

For the second card I used some washi tape with these beautiful butterfly images paired with glitter tape. I also used a sentiment die from Paper Smooches and added the Butterfly die cut image from My Favorite Things.

Supplies: Eyelet Outlet washi and glitter tapes, MFT Beautiful Butterflys Dienamics

Adhesive: Therm-O-Web Memory Tape Runner XL  and 3D White Foam Squares

I love how versatile Washi Tape can be for Card making. Check out our amazing selection of patterns and glitter tapes at EyeletOutlet.com/washitape.

Water coloring and Eyelet Outlet brads

Hello friends!  Today I am sharing a few summer cards I created with my Cricut Explore, watercolors and some of my favorite Eyelet Outlet brads.

The Explore cuts just about any medium so I thought it would be great to cut some images with water color paper and color them with my Tim Holtz distress inks.

Supplies: 

Shell Corner brads

Sea Shore brads

Jewel Strips
Tim Holtz distress inks
Anna Griffin Floral Ground Embossing folder.
Adhesive: 
Therm-O-Web Memory Tape Runner XL,  3D Foam squares Combo Pack

I used Canson water color paper I bought from Michaels with a 40% of coupon.

Cut out some images I liked from the Life is Beach cartridge with my Cricut Explore and colored them using a water brush and Tim Holtz distress markers.

I used circles of vellum paper painted lightly in the background and added the brads and bling strip to the Sea Horse.

For the next card I cut out a pre-designed card from the Life is a Beach cart with a sheet of watercolor paper. The finished card is 5.5 x 5.5

I used painters tape so the colors would not bleed into each other. I started with coral and then colored the outside border.

Once it dried I embellished the front with the die cuts I colored and added the Sea Shells and Shell corner brads. The bling strips were easy to adhere around the card base and I finished with vellum in the center of the card.

I hope you'll give this technique a try and share your creations with me.

Thanks for stopping by.

25 Days of Holiday Cards Day 4

Hello and thanks for stopping by for Day 4 of my 25 Days of Holiday cards. Today's card is pure elegance. I must admit, I do prefer creating Elegant cards over any other style. Certain techniques like embossing solid cardstock, creating with satin ribbon and using bling in my design are all key components like I like to use to create a successful elegant card.

Today's card uses foil patterned paper by Anna Griffin from the Winter Wonderland collection. Spellbinders M-Bossibilities Quilted Delight folder. Eyelet Outlet Bling and a Sentiment tag from last year's Anna Griffin Holiday Card Making kit.

Thanks so much for stopping by to see today's card!

Cause everyone loves a bunny

Easter is March 31st this year and Eyelet Outlet has some adorable spring brads to help you create some beautiful Easter themed cards. I must say I am a bit partial to bunnies for my Easter cards and the new pastel and bunny brads are too cute.

Here's a card using the pastel Rabbit brads along with a few of the Fresh Flower brads too.

Happy Easter

For this card I also used some of the Eyelet Outlet Fresh flower brads to enhance the design already printed on the paper from My Mind's Eye.

Hopefully these cards have inspired you to get out your Easter and Spring stash and create some fun cards!
