Wrap it Up with Trendy Twine

Hello everyone!  It's the beginning of a new month and that mean's a new challenge at Twine It Up! with Trendy Twine.  This month the challenge is to use Trendy Twine on your gift packages.  

I am planning on making goodies for my co-workers, so I found some white boxes that I decorated a little bit. 

The Christmas Mint Trendy Twine is the perfect addition to the white box.  I double wrapped it around and tied a bow in the middle.  Then I added a small tag and holly cut from a punch.  The red stick-on gems are glittery--a perfect touch!

I hope you all play along with the challenge this month--we all have something to wrap that we can add some fabulous Trendy Twine to :)  And be sure to head back to Twine It Up! with Trendy Twine to see the other packages the design team made.

Operation Tag -- A Birthday Celebration!

Hi everyone!!  Today, we are celebrating Lesley's (Owner/Creator of Trendy Twine) mom's birthday--Happy Birthday Janice!!

Lesley asked if we wanted to make birthday tags to send to her mom.  Now, I really don't think of myself as a great tag maker, but I really wanted to participate.  And I really do like the way it turned out :)  I found this great tag shape on one of my Cricut carts.  I can't remember the name of it right now, but I wanted something a little wider since I feel the narrow tags limit me.

I used the beautiful Aqua Midnight Trendy Twine along with some ribbon for the top of my tag.  The fabulous flowers are from My Creative Time--I just love these.  And I finished it off with some faux stitching, a Close to My Heart stamp and some fun sequins :)  Oh, the paper is Doodlebug.

Be sure to head over to Twine it Up! with Trendy Twine to see all the fun birthday tags made by the design team and some fabulous Trendy Twiners :)

Black and White Challenge

Hi everyone!

I really am trying to find time play along in challenges more and when I saw the black and white challenge over at Paper Crafts Connection, I knew this was one I could do :)

The challenge was to use only black and white and upload it to their flicker group.  Of course, the deadline is tonight and I was running out of time.  So a little after 10pm last night, I went down to make this.  I completed it in under 30 minutes--I think that is a record for me and I still like the card this morning :)

I knew I had the perfect Trendy Twine to use--Black Licorice.  The stamp is from Unity and called My Panda Balloon.  It was just perfect for this challenge.  Then I used My Creative Time 3 x4 Stitched Journal Die and a stamp from the It's All About You stamp set; Echo Park pattern paper and some small black self stick pearls.

Have a great day!!
