Eyelet Question?

I just wanted to ask you scrapbookers/crafters a question about eyelets
I ordered mickey mouse ears Eyelets
but when I do them the ears bend back,
am I doing something wrong.

here is a picture of them below

Any suggestions?
HELP I am a novice

Re: Eyelet Question?

do you have the eyelet setter? are you using it on the backside of the eyelet.

sound like you are hitting the eyelet a little too hard. try a softer touch (this coming from the woman that punches her eyelets through the paper because she is so rough!! LOL)

When you are flattening the back of the eyelets, are the eyelets on a hard flat surface?

Cute eyeletes, btw! Where did you get them - I have tons of WDW pics
