Trendy Bakers Twine--You're Funfetti!

Hello everyone!  I'm posting over on Twine It Up! with Trendy Twine.  Today, I'm sharing a fun birthday card using Stars & Stripes Trendy TwineTotally White Trendy TwineBlue Berry Sequins and the Metallic Red Shaker Medley.


I've been having a lot of fun practicing my coloring and using my supply of stamps this month, so I decided to use some cute cupcakes for my card today.  First I colored in my cupcakes and added some glossy accents to the cherry and the candles. Then I decided I would cut out an oval shape to place them in.  Next stamped my sentiment and glued my Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine around the oval.


Finally, I decided it needed a bit more.  So I added a Totally White Trendy Twine bow to the side and then my Blue Berry Sequins and the Metallic Red Shaker Medley sequins.  Those tiny red flowers on the cupcakes come from those sequins too. I like how they look like sprinkles on the cupcakes.

Have a great day!!

Trendy Bakers Twine--Hugs & Kisses

Hello everyone!  I'm posting over at Twine it Up with Trendy Twine and sharing these quick and easy Hugs & Kisses Treat Boxes with you today. I used Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine along with Totally White Trendy Twine,  Candy Cubes 2x2 Clear BoxesCranberry Tag-ItsYou & Me Planner StampsIn the Navy Trendy Page Dots, and Blue Berry Sequins.


I filled my Candy Cubes 2x2 Clear Boxes with some Red, White and Blue M&M's.  Next I wrapped my Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine around the box.  


For my tag, I stamped my sentiment from the You & Me Planner Stamps and added my ladybug sticker, my In the Navy Trendy Page Dot and some sequins from the Blue Berry Sequins Mix. Then I made my tag 'tail' with Totally White Trendy Twine.  I did use some pop dots to pop the tag onto the top of the box.  

Have a great day!
