Brandstrup started playing Handball in her hometown at TMG Mårslet, and then moved on to Odder IGF followed by Brabrand IF. This prompted a move to the Norwegian club Våg Vipers, where she broke into the first team and got an important role. She returned to Denmark to play for Vejen EH on a 3-year contract, but the club went bankrupt after her first year back in Denmark. Therefore she had to find a new club and joined recently promoted Ringkøbing Håndbold,[2] where she played out the rest of her career.

She did initially announce her plan to end her career in 2020, but because said season was cut short by Covid-19, she was convined by her club Ringkøbing Håndbold to continue for one more year.[3]
