Sweet Summertime Co-Blog Hop with Trendy Twine and SVG Attic


Welcome to the Trendy Twine-SVG Attic Sweet Summertime blog hop!  We are so excited to have you join us today!

At each stop of the hop we hope you will be inspired by the creativity of the design teams of Trendy Twine and SVG Attic. You are sure to find many wonderful projects that will be at the top of your crafting lists!

You should be arriving from Shelley's blog. If you happened across this post out of order, please head to the Trendy Twine blog to start at the beginning of the hop.

Here is the project I created:


My card came from the JGW Tropical Haven SVG Attic Collection.  I used my Cricut Explore to cut it out and it will fit in an A2 envelope.  This is such a fun collection -- I can't wait to try out the other cuts in this set.  This card was very easy to assemble, the layers go together so well!


I used the totally fun Limeade Trendy Twine on the details parts of the leaves.  Then I decided to decorate the banner with some Pinkberry Sorbet Trendy Twine.  I love to see pink and green together! I finished it off by adding some Frosted Lace Stickles on the the Sweet. 

Now how about some blog hop prizes??

Thanks A Million

Hi everyone!  I'm just popping in to post a quick card I made for the MFT Sketch 233 Challenge.  I have fallen in love with their Blueprint dies and only have one set.  I am going to need to get some more so I can switch up what I use to enter their challenges.  This card came together so quickly by following their sketch and using the dies.

I used My Favorite Things Die-Namics Blueprints #12 and My Favorite Things Essential Sentiments. The faux stitching was made using a Signo White pen and the pearls are from Michaels.


I probably could have used some pattern paper, but I like all the blue too.

Have a great day!

Trendy Twine Post Day--Star Pillow Boxes

Hello everyone! It's my turn to post over at Twine It Up with Trendy Twine today.  I am showing you the Small Kraft Pillow Boxes and Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine.  These small boxes are so cute!!  I was able to fit three Hershey's Kisses in them.  They would make a great small favor or treat to give to a friend or co-worker.


I wrapped a strip of white cardstock around the pillow box the I wrapped the Stars & Stripes Twine around the other way and tied a bow.  Lastly, I added some red stars I cut out with my Cricut and topped those with some Frosted Lace Stickles.


 These were quick and fun to make!!

Be sure to go over to Annie's Paper Boutique to get all you twine and packing goodies!



Have a fabulous day!!
