Trendy Twine -- Celebrate You!

Hello everyone!  I'm posting over at Twine it Up! with Trendy Twine and today I'm sharing a fun card using Totally Blue Trendy Twine and several sequins mixes.  I really LOVE how this card turned out!!

 I've had this pinata die from My Favorite Things since May.  I've totally been wanting to use it and the Totally Blue Trendy Twine was perfect for the 'string' to hang it from.  The die cutout has a cardstock base and all the layers are cut out of crepe paper, except for the eye, that's cardstock.


Next, I glued my Totally Blue Trendy Twine to the back of the pinata and hooked it over the back and taped it down, and added a bow. I attached the pinata to the card front with dimensional tape. 


Lastly, I added my sentiment and added colorful sequins around.  The sequins came from the following:  Blue Berry, Grape Fizz, Lemon Tart, Rapsberry Cupcake, and Twisted Lime.  I love how fun they all go together and should mix them up more often LOL!

I hope you have a fabulous day!!

Trendy Twine & Mini Popcorn Boxes

Happy Father's Day!  
The Trendy Gals are showcasing the new Mini Popcorn Boxes today.  

I picked the Lemon Mini Popcorn Box and paired it with Dark Citrus Trendy Twine.  I also used the Choose Happy Stamp Set, a Navy Tag-It and some Lemon Tart Sequins.


These are just the cutest little boxes!  I had some small stamps on my desk and realized this cute pineapple stamp would be the perfect size for the Mini Popcorn Box.  I stamped and dies cut four of them and pop dotted them to all the sides of the box.


Next, I glued a strip of Dark Citrus Trendy Twine around the bottom of the box.  It matches so well.  I wanted to have a sentiment sticking out and starting searching for something that might work.  Then I saw the Navy Tag-It in my stash.  It sticks out just perfectly in the box.  I added the Rock this day from the Choose Happy Stamp Set and some more Dark Citrus Trendy Twine for the tag topper and a few Lemon Tart Sequins.


Make sure to visit Twine it Up! with Trendy Twine today to see all the fun boxes the Trendy Gals made!

Have a wonderful day!

Trendy Twine -- Just for You!

Hello everyone! I'm posting over at Twine It Up! with Trendy Twine and today I have some cute mini cards to share with you.  We are featuring the Totally Blue Trendy Twine along with the Square Glassine Envelopes. I also used the adorable Foodie Planner Stamps, the You've Got Mail Stamps and some Trendy Page Dots to close the envelopes.


I made some some 2x2 cards (approximately).  They were the perfect size to fit into these cute envelopes.  I stamped the cupcake from the Foodie Planner Stamps and the sentiment from the You've Got Mail set.  Then I added my Totally Blue Trendy Twine with a bow.


I slipped the cards into the Square Glassine Envelopes.  I love that you can see the cute card through these fun envelopes


The envelopes don't have a seal so some fun Trendy Page Dots to close them up!


These were so fun to make!  

I hope you have a great day!
