The new Eyelet Outlet Card Suit Brads are beautiful and useful; to prove it, here's a PAIR of entirely SUIT-able cards!
For "You're Kind of a Big Deal" the sentiment is printed in a free font called Dear Sunshine. The Card Suit Brads are placed in a square configuration and the background is a panel filled with neatly lined-up strips of Playing Card Washi.

Get ready to smile, because today I'm sharing a handmade birthday card featuring the new and utterly adorable dancing Hippo Brads! This pair of whimsical hippos are guaranteed to bring a dose of joy to any celebration.
I decided to create a square fancy fold card for this special occasion. What makes this fold unique is a middle panel that holds the upper and lower folds neatly shut until opened. This simple design adds an extra layer of surprise when the card is opened!
The stars of this party are, of course, the dancing hippos! I positioned them on the center panel, ready to celebrate. And what's a party without balloons? These happy hippos are holding onto three cheerful Balloon Brads, adding to the festive atmosphere.
Just above the playful "Hippo-Party-Mus" sentiment, you'll spot two charming Gift Brads, perfect for setting the birthday mood. To really light up the scene, I created a fun string of "party lights" using 8mm Cut Jewels in three vibrant colors. They add just the right amount of sparkle!
This card was so much fun to put together, and I hope it sparks some creative joy for your next birthday project. The new Hippo Brads are truly a delight to work with!
The brand-new Eyelet Outlet Camper Brads are as adorable as they are inspiring. Where will you take them? This one is off to the mountains, under some Cloud Tape with Sun and Cloud Brads, surrounded by Pine Trees and framed with Wood Washi.

Father's Day is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the amazing dads in our lives. This year, I decided to whisk Dad away to a relaxing beach scene with a handmade card that's as fun as a day by the ocean!
To create this tranquil getaway, I stamped the perfect sandy beach, calm water, a comfy chair, a colorful umbrella, and graceful palm trees. It really set the stage for a day of relaxation!
No beach scene is complete without the perfect accessories, and that's where Eyelet Outlet brads come in! I decorated the card with a variety of fun shapes: a cheerful Sun Brad, red Star Brad, a charming Boat Brad, cool Sunglass Brad, laid-back Flip Flop Brads, and a handy Cooler Brad. These little details bring the whole scene to life.
The sentiment truly captures the relaxed vibe: "Happy Father's Day! May your cooler stay full and your feet stay sand-free (mostly)." It's a playful wish for a perfect day.
I hope this card inspires you to create your own personalized beachy tribute for Father's Day!

Father's Day is nearly here, so luckily Eyelet Outlet has everything you need to make an awesome card for Dad. This one features: Saw and Tool Box Brads plus Tool Brads flank the sentiment; Screw Brads adorn the corners; while Wood Washi and Tape Measure Washi panels make the perfect masculine background.
Just when you think they can't be outdone, Eyelet Outlet ups their "game" with Card Suit Brads! There are so many card ideas that can incorporate these.
For my first time out of the gate, I decided to create a large square card with an overhanging circle and a reference to lady luck. The cream image is a cut vinyl decal that I applied to black cardstock. Then I added the four Card Suit Brads, and decorated it further with clear and blue Stippled Jewel Brads and Gold Glitter Enamel Dots. It's a winner!
It's that time of year when kids (and adults!) are graduating, and luckily Eyelet Outlet has the perfect brads to make easy, adorable cards! Print a sentiment in a fun typewriter font, affix a Graduation Hat and a colorful Sunglass Brad to a stamped sun, attach it to a background of Cloud Tape, add a cloud from the Sun and Cloud set, a Heart Brad and the rainbow from our Unicorn and Rainbow set et voila... the future's so bright, you gotta wear shades!
I've been absolutely loving the latest brad release, especially since I come from a big camping family! You can imagine my excitement when I saw the Camper Brads were included – they're just perfect!
These brads are incredibly easy to work with. For this card, I created a serene beach background using ink and cardstock. To set the scene, I started with a cozy bonfire, adding the "fire" element from the Camping Brads set (not to be confused with the Camper Brads!). I also included Palm Tree Brads, a Seagull Brad, and even a Birthday Bubble Brad to complete the look.
If you or someone special in your life enjoys the great outdoors, you'll have so much fun finding creative ways to incorporate these new Camper Brads into your crafting. They add such a charming touch to any project!
The adorable brand new Eyelet Outlet Hippo Brads are dancing for joy! And who can blame them, when they are the co-stars of a fun birthday card which also features Cupcake Swirl Brads and Pink Dot Tape!

It's officially grilling season, and I'm loving it! To thank the awesome hosts of an upcoming BBQ, I whipped up this fun and easy card. The secret to the effortless design? The brilliant Beer Washi Tape, which I used to create a fantastic border!
On top of that, I added a perfectly themed BBQ cardstock. To capture the essence of a summer cookout, I added three simple words that say it all. And the best part? The adorable BBQ Brads featuring little aprons and grills! To complete the celebratory vibe, I included a couple of bottles from the Beer Brads set.
This card came together so quickly and easily, making it the perfect way to show your appreciation to any BBQ host!
