I hope you are all having a great Tuesday evening! It has been such a crazy week already and it is only Tuesday! Life is getting VERY busy with my children being involved in so many different things. Good thing I have an iPhone this year where I can still keep up to date on my blog, e-mails, and Facebook while I am patiently waiting in the car. :)
Here is a video I made today on using eyelets in your projects. I hope you enjoy it! I used Cricut Lite Celebrate with Flourish Cartridge for the cake and Everyday Life stamp set from My Pink Stamper Stamps.
Here is the what the full set of Everyday Life looks like. You can check it out HERE on my Products page.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful card. Love your stamps. Wish there was a place to buy them from in Alberta along with that cute cart. For some reason we only have the same 4 lite carts all across canada and that isn't one of them. I want those new colours from SU for sure! Have a great night. Jos jorieux at hotmail.com
Oh this card is so Kah-UTE!!! I love it!!! I forget to use eyelets sometimes so thank you for the reminder! :0) Your set of Everyday Life Stamps is just the perfect set of a mixed greetings. They are simply lovely! :0) XOXO, Julie.
Cute card. just like everyone else, ihaven't used eyelets ina while too. off topic! could you do a video on bind it all? i just got mine and can't get enough videos on it:)
Love, love, love this card!!! All of the elegant details really take this to the next level. That cake is beautiful!!! Love the eyelet detail too. TFS!!! :0)
You're card is gorgeous! I have the crop a dile and eyelets that I haven't used yet! I'm excited to see how pretty they look on your card. You're stamps are awesome and I can't wait to purchase you're new sets :)
Excellent! I just finished the cutest ever card for FIL's b-day tomorrow and was stumped on what to do for MIL the day after... guess I'll be getting out my CropADile Big Bite & Celebrate with Flourish! Thanks so much for the inspiration!!!
Soooooo cute Robyn, and the eyelets are just a fabulous touch, I have only used them a couple times never turned out that nice, I think I will try the old hammer/pen way that is more my style lol!!!!!
Thanks soooo much for the Eyelet demo. Now I have another reason to go shopping again. Not that I need one...lol Good thing it's the start of my Birthday Month. Beautiful Card. Smooches...
Not only is your card way too cute, but you have a way of teaching that is unique. Thank you Robyn! Great video! Love your child's laughter :) Martha Caballero mcaballerobrito@hotmail.com
Cute card. My son is in pre-k this year as well as soccer and swim classes. I'm cherishing those 10 minute waits in the car at school. If only I could figure out how to take my scrapbooking in the car.
i too have strayed away from eyelets. i think that i will rummage through my stash & start using them again. & i love the video. the craziness & fun times of having kids is something that i cherish. thanks for the inspiration!!
I love the card - I too have the MM tool kit and the crop-a-dile. I prefer to use the tool kit as my crop-a-dile either doesn't set the eyelet enough or it totally mangles them. But after this video, I definately want to go into my "give-away stash" and "rescue" my eyelets.
I was laughing so hard at the beginning - those giggles are contagious! Love this card! I've only ever had the crop-a-dile so I was excited to see it done "the old fashioned" way. Thanks so much!
very cute card. Thanks for the demo on eyelets. I have the crop-a-dile, but I don't think I use it right. I end up having to use a hammer too to get it flat all the way.
Such a pretty card, Robyn! I, too, forget to use eyelets! I think we get in the habit of using the same things, so thank you for reminding us to do something different and mix it up a bit!!!
Cute card! The big bite goes 6 inches in so it does the eyelets in the middle of pages. I like using my cropdile and big bite because when scrapping late at night it doesn't wake up the sleeping kiddos!
I was wondering for the eyelets you used and the technique (the old fashioned way--without the crop-a-dile), for the hammer you used...could you used any regular hammer? Also, for the "poker-thingy" (as you called it in the video) =), where did you get that? I have never used eyelets before and your video has got me more interested in them.
Hey Robyn, That is a very cute card you made. I have to say that I'm glad you didn't edit out your son - he is adorable. His laugh is contagious. And, then when he told you "Good job", awwww that just melted my heart.
Hi Robyn, Please tell me how you find time to whip out such cute cards with your busy schedule? Where do you find or make the time to let your creativity flow? I would love to know!
Robyn, the card was very cute, but I especially enjoyed the giggle session with your little one. Mine are all grown up now. We still giggle, but not as often. Love your videos. You keep 'em commin', I'll tune in
Isn't it funny how we change what we use all the time. I haven't used eyelets much this past year either! I guess I should switch it up occasionally from brad's to eyelet and back again! Thanks for the inspiration. I love your card!
How cute:) I just got a crop- and-dile and I haven't used it cus I don't have any eyelets:)lol, but I can't wait to use it. Monica L. monita23 at ca dot rr dot com
Love the card so I went searching for the cartridge. To my dismay, I can't find one at any local Wal-Marts or at Wal-mart.com. If anyone reads this comment and knows where I can get one, please let me know.
Love, love, love eyelets, and my Crop-A-Dile. I never learned how to do it the "old way." Thanks for bringing them out again! Have a great trip!! Angie in Utah abcammack at q dot com

I love that card and I like eyelets a lot. I need to get that setting tool :)
I love the card - I too have the MM tool kit and the crop-a-dile. I prefer to use the tool kit as my crop-a-dile either doesn't set the eyelet enough or it totally mangles them. But after this video, I definately want to go into my "give-away stash" and "rescue" my eyelets.

You and your son just cracked me up. It sounded like you were having so much fun. The card was cute as well.
I love that cake cut! The whole card is fabulous!!

I've never had much luck with eyelets so I use brads. They are much easier too.

I love this card. The colors are fantastic. Love the simplicity of the design but the touch of elegance!
Cute card. I really like the elegantly simple cake! I will have to try that one :)
Loved the giggles and the card!
