Trendy Bakers Twine -- You're Incredible!

Hello everyone!  I'm posting over at Twine it Up! with Trendy Twine.  Today I have a card using the Celebration Trendy Twine and some sequins from the Peppermint Icicle and Bumblebee Sequin Mixes.


I had so much fun designing this card.  Since this twine has a Disney vibe, I looked through my Disney images in my Cricut Design Space. These characters have a lot of layers to cut out, but I flattened her and printed and cut her out. Next, I decided I wanted the sentiment to say You're Incredible, so I found a font and had my machine write it on the front with a red glitter pen.


To add in the yellow color from the twine, I cut out a yellow starburst which is also from the same cartridge that Mrs. Incredible is from too.  Then I added my Celebration Trendy Twine above the sentiment and pop dotted up my die cuts.


The last touch was to add my sequins.  I pulled out my Bumblebee Sequins for the yellow and black and my Peppermint Icicle Sequins to add some red.

I think this turned out so fun!

Have an incredible day!

I made a shaker card to share with you today. I found a diamond cut in my Cricut library and welded the base of the die cut onto my card base.  Additionally, I used a fun font and my Pink Glitter Gel Pen to write the happy birthday directly on front as well.


When the base was finished cutting, I did cut out the top layer of the die cut diamond.  It fit onto the the cutout very well on top of the acetate. I used my foam tape around the diamond on the back of the base and I filled it with my Pink Diamonds.  


After attaching my top base I added more Pink Diamonds on the front. I made a pattern on the sides and added some to the top corners.  Lastly, I added some Strawberry Cupcake Trendy Twine to the bottom and tied a bow.

Trendy Bakers Twine -- Happy Treats

Hello everyone!  I'm posting over at Twine It Up! with Trendy Twine.  This month we are featuring Celebration Trendy Twine and the Clear Pillow Boxes.  I used the Medium Clear Pillow Boxes for today's post. Additionally, I used White Tag-ItsChoose Happy Stamp set, and Bumblebee and Peppermint Stick Sequins.


I had a cute sticker set from Recollections sitting on my table.  I thought they would be perfect for the colors in the twine.  Bonus--they are scratch and sniff stickers!  That was a surprise when I opened them. 


Next I stamped my sentiments on my White Tag Its from the Choose Happy Stamp Set.  Then I added some yellow and black sequins from the Bumblebee Sequins Mix and red sequins from the Peppermint Stick Sequins Mix.


After filling the Medium Clear Boxes with candy, I wrapped my Celebration Trendy Twine around the box long ways a few times and tied a knot.  Then I tied on my Celebration pom poms that I made for this.


I just love these clear boxes -- they are so fun to fill and add some decorations to! 

Have a great day!
