Trendy Twine - Winter Wishes

Hi There!

I sure hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and was able to relax and enjoy time with family and friends. I'm over on the Trendy blog sharing a fun winter gift using our spotlight color Peppermint Icicle Trendy Twine

Have you used a APB kraft box? These boxes are so awesome the are so sturdy and easy to assemble. I used a 3x3x3 Kraft-Box and covered it with some fun winter paper.
I used this cute box to wrap a pretty little homemade ornament.

I added a fun winter wishes die cut and tied the box with Peppermint Icicle Trendy Twine

Such a simple but fun gift.

Pop over to the APB store and grab yours today.

Trendy Twine - Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to you!

I sure hope you are all enjoying the beautiful day spending time with friends and family. The Trendy team has some Christmas wishes for you today.
I made some Christmas cards using the Let It Snow Stamp Set

I used a die cut cocoa mug and added some really fun texture using a snow pen my buddy Sherrie sent me. I love it Sherrie, Thank you! For this card I added some Holly Berry Trendy Twine

I die cut some hearts and stamped them with the Warm wishes sentiment and for this card I added some Totally Sky Trendy Twine 

I just love how the snow pen looks, such a great addition :)

From our family to yours, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Trendy Twine - Merry & Bright

Good Morning!

I'm over on the Trendy blog with a fun little gift wrapping idea using our spotlight items APB 
Cotton Muslin Bag & Peppermint Icicle Trendy Twine. It seems like I have the hardest time finding cute ideas to package up small gifts for Christmas. I love to buy my girlfriends pretty lipsticks or nail polish and I love to wrap them in pretty packages. Here is a great idea for those gifts. 


I used these fun bags, they are large enough for two or three lipsticks. They are even perfect for a gift card or cash$$$


I made a shaker tag out of a die cut and used Peppermint Icicle Sequins & Frosted Cranberry Sequins to fill it up with lots of sparkle.

These cute little bags will be getting lots of use this year :) Pop over to the APB store and grab yours today.

Trendy Twine - So thankful for you

Good Morning!

I'm over on the Trendy blog sharing a Fall card. I can't believe this is the last day of November, WOW, that went quick. I have one last card to share using some gorgeous Spiced Pumpkin Trendy Twine & the Happy Thanksgiving stamp perfect combo for Fall.
I saw this great big sunflower and thought it would look great with the spiced pumpkin colors. I found some pretty plaid paper and paired the two.

I stamped the sentiment at the bottom because I wanted this to be the focal for the twine.

I had this idea in my head and it was easy and I really liked the way it turned out. I left a space at the bottom of the card and  hole punched holes along the bottom. I simply weaved the twine and tied a bow. Simple but I think it gives a nice finish to the card.

I hope you had a chance to pop over to the blog and see all the inspiration and purchase these goodies while they're on sale.

Die Cuttin" Diva's - Anything Goes

Hi There!

It's Tuesday and welcome to another challenge day over at DCD, this week we have our most popular challenge.... Anything Goes! So come over and show us what you're working on, just be sure it has a die cut :)

I know I should really be making Christmas cards, tags, gift cards, but frankly I just wasn't ready for all that. I pulled out some Christmas goodies a while back made a few tags and then put everything back in the cabinet :( true story. I know I'll feel more festive after Thanksgiving. So I made a little thank you card just to have on hand.

Pretty simple card. I recently purchased a bunch of dies from Die Versions and this was one of them. I cut the die first and then I cut again with a stitched circle die which I also purchased from Die Versions. 

I liked the combo of peach, black & white. I added a few liquid enamel dots and the card was complete.

Please pop over to Die Cuttin Divas Challenge and check out the inspiration from DT and join us for the challenge! We would love to have you.

Birthday Celebration for Janice

Hi There!

We have another fun surprise from the Trendy Twine Team and friends! Today is Janice's Birthday! That's Lesley's mom :) what better way to send birthday wishes than to have a little blog hop/post :) I hope you have an extra special day Janice!

I made Janice a card with lots of TT & APB Goodies. I used some of my special paper (you know that paper you save forever) Well this was the perfect occasion to use it :) 

I paired the paper with a die cut balloon and some Cranberry Trendy Twine.  I gave the twine a little twist by simply coating the twine in clear glue and letting it dry around a pencil, paint brush, or anything that is a thin cylinder. I stamped Happy Birthday from the APB smile set and added some GORGEOUS sequins called Christmas Shaker Medley .

Janice, I sure hope all the cards put a smile on your face and you enjoy your special day!

Trendy Twine - Have a Wonderful Day!

Hi There!

Today is a VERY special day.... Surprise Lesley, Happy Birthday to you! The design team wanted to celebrate your special day in a special way :) So each of us have a post for you. Thank you for being such a fabulous bloggy boss :) You are so much fun to work with! I sure hope you have a GREAT day!


I know how much you love Kitty:) I just couldn't decide between Hello Kitty and Minnie :) In the end Kitty won. I found an awesome chipboard selection of super cute Hello Kitty's and this one was my favorite.
I simply die cut some rectangles and popped them up for dimension.  I adhered Hello Kitty and added some Totally Red Trendy Twine under the balloon. I used a sentiment from the Smile set. 
I sent Lesley a fun little gift hopefully it makes her smile/laugh. I wrapped the gift with more Totally Red Trendy Twine and added a little tag.

Lesley, Hope you have a fantastic day my friend!
