Today I'm sharing a cute little gift bag. 

I wanted to make a few bags, tags, & GC holders as my son and his friends all turn 11 this year.  It seems like I'm always in a rush to package a gift and I thought of putting a few of these together so I have them for the occasion. I just hope I remember where to find them - HAHA

I started with the CDD Happy Celebrations set and a Chevron Gift bag from Annies Paper Boutique.

I die cut the number 11 and a star and popped it up for a little dimension.

Lastly, I stamped this fun sentiment on a postage stamp die cut and tied it with some Midnight Trendy Twine. I think this is perfect for a gift card and some candy!!

Don't forget to join us tomorrow for the NEW RELEASE!!

Die Cuttin Diva's - Cheer up Challenge

Happy Tuesday!

It's time for another Die Cuttin Diva's Challenge. Today we have a fun challenge, cheer up! I think we could all use some cheer in our lives. Someone sick, someone blue, someone just needs a little pick me up? This is the perfect challenge to make someone happy!

I created a fun little treat holder using a free file from Digital Playground. I also used a paper pad from simple stories that had the PERFECT sentiment "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful" 

This is a treat holder meant to hold candies but It's actually large enough to hold cookies, crackers, cards, etc... It's a really FUN file! I used some GORGEOUS Trendy Twine Tickled with Teal & Lemon Tart to add the finishing touch.

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

I Love you Beary Much!

Hi There!

I'm over at Craftin Desert Diva's today sharing a sweet little card using one of CDD's very first stamps Punny, such a super CUTE set! Lots of FUN sentiments for Valentine's day! 

I wanted to use the bear sentiment to go with a FREE file that I found over at SVG Cuts.

I cut the bear at about 3" and added a PKS face. I put a little glossy accents on my bear and added some fun sequins to give the card a little sparkle :) and lastly I stamped this adorable sentiment to complete my Valentine card.

Crafting Inspiration Day 2

Hi there Trendy Fans!

I'm over at Trendy Twine today sharing some Valentine inspiration! We have a fun little event this week, our Trendy DT teamed up with Fleurette Bloom to give you some sweet inspiration for heart day!
I just love this time of year...Ooooh all the pink and red! I LOVE it! Today I used Fleurette Bloom's awesome SVG file NEW Valentine Be Mine 3D SVG Kit along with some fabulous Valentine Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine.

I'm in LOVE with these fun little arrows! The Valentine Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine is PRETTY darn perfect for any Valentine treat :) but I just love how it adds a fun touch to the arrow.

The first thing I want to say is when you receive this file, it's perfect for a pencil. No adjusting... just pick some fabulous paper - and CUT! That easy!

Look how cute they turned out...It didn't hurt that I found the CUTEST pencils at Micheal's. I wanted to add one more fun touch so I placed a candy treat in the center of the heart because I know chocolate makes everything better :)

Because we have a special week, we are offering some special treats for one LUCKY winner!

$10 GC for Trendy Twine & $10 GC for Fleurette's store.

Our little party begins Sunday the 11th and ends Saturday the 17th. Please comment (and follow) on both the Trendy Twine blog and the Fleurette Bloom blog each day for a chance to be entered. One winner will receive both prizes! Good luck and have fun being inspired all week!

I'm sure most of you are thinking winter for this Blue & White theme, but when I created my card I was not feeling a winter themed card. We had this really weird warm front and we were in the high 70's and I just couldn't bring myself to go winter :) (Today is a diffrent story with the past two days of rain and temps in the low 50's)

I really have been wanting to send a card to my nephew in the Navy so that was my inspiration!

I created the base mats with blue patterned paper and just added an anchor cut with the Cricut Cartridge Life's a beach. I embellished it with some jute and a baby blue button.

I used a sentiment from Simply Said - this set has some really great sentiments and makes a REALLY good starter set!

Love - Trendy Valentine Treats!

Hi There Trendy Fans!

Happy New Year!! I'm super excited to be over at Trendy Twine today to share a sweet treat for Valentines day. I love the Holiday's but I was ready to get out my pinks :) This month the Trendy Twine DT is showcasing a gorgeous color Valentine Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine available in the store HERE.
I always give little candy gifts to the little girls in the neighborhood so here is the first set of gifts for the year :)

I started with some AWESOME treat holders from the Trendy store, the Biggie Candy Chutes. These are a larger size and can fit the heart candies with ease. I love the size!

I created a heart tag using an MCT die cut and created a floating heart attached with some Valentine Cherry Cupcake Twine down the center so that the hearts swings around. Then I added a little bow and wrapped the chutes up with more Valentine Cherry Cupcake Twine. I think the girls will love these. Well... at least I know they'll love the candy :)

Stop by the Trendy store and add these to your Valentines list.
