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!

Trendy Twine - Give Thanks

Good Morning!


I'm over on the Trendy blog sharing a Fall themed Thank you treat using this months spotlight products Spiced Pumpkin Trendy Twine & Orange Mini Open End Envelopes. I just love to make treats and thought these little envelopes would be perfect to hold a sweet treat.
I started with decorating these cute Orange Mini Open End Envelopes with some fun paper and some die cut leaves. The Spiced Pumpkin Trendy Twine matched perfectly with this paper.... I really had to search for just the right color but I finally found some and I just love how it turned out. 


Here's a close up of the Thanksgiving stamp and the twine - so pretty!


I filled my envelopes with a mini size candy car and I wrapped the bar with coordinating paper and tied each one with more Spiced Pumpkin Trendy Twine.

These little envelopes fit a variety of fun things like a small note, tag, gift card and a mini or full size candy bar too. 
Stop by the store and grab some goodies!

Die Cuttin' Diva's - Sketch

Hi There!

It's Tuesday and welcome to another challenge day over at DCD, this week is our monthly sketch. Come and join in the FUN!


I needed a birthday card for a soccer fan so I used the sketch to create a fun little card. 
Here is the DCD sketch.

I used the MCT soccer set and die cut a black and white circle for the center. I used a green background just to give the card more color. I used some ranger enamel accents for the corners.

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.

Trendy Twine - Trick or Treat

Good Morning!

I'm over on the Trendy blog sharing a last minute Halloween card, just 3 more day until Halloween! I made a fun card using Trick or Treat Trendy Twine.

I started by making a die cut of Trick or treat and wrapped the t's with Trick or Treat Trendy Twine, this is the BEST color for Halloween projects. I think I used it for everything :) 

I also added Grape Fizz Sequins all over for some extra sparkle and shine.

Look at this gorgeous Twine!

Die Cuttin' Diva's - Halloween

Hi There!

It's Tuesday and welcome to another challenge day over at DCD, this week it's all about Halloween! So come join the FUN!

I made a fun Halloween treat with a glam feel :) 

I started with my favorite APB chevron bags 

I die cut a tag and used some fun Halloween paper and I crimped some vellum for a little bit of dimension. 

I found some very pretty gold ribbon and I thought it would be something different for a Halloween tag. I placed it under the spiderweb and added it to the top of the tag. I made a tiny tag and stamped a "Boo" sentiment and attached a wooden clothespin that my buddy Sherrie gave me, she's so SWEET! 

I just love Halloween and I love creating fun treats and cards for all our little neighbors!

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.

APB Release Day 2 - Merry & Bright

Hi There!

Welcome to Day 2 of the APB Christmas Stamp release. Have you been by the Trendy blog? We are super excited to be releasing 6 new stamp sets & 2 new sequin sets and all products will be available Friday the 21st at 6pm CST. Each of the DT will have a sneak peek for you at different times of the day all week so be sure to check the Trendy blog often. 

I shared a quick peek of the Merry & Bright set yesterday and today I'm sharing some Christmas tags using the new set.
I've used three sentiments from the new set. I die cut the tags and layered them with Christmas paper. I also used a color combo that would match one of my favorite Trendy twine colors Peppermint Icicle.

"No peeking, shaking or sniffing! Don't you just LOVE that sentiment :)

Another great sentiment and a look at the Frosted Cranberry sequins.

Last but not least "Merry & Bright" I adorned this tag with an ornament and added lots of glitter and more Peppermint Icicle  :)

All products will be available Friday the 21st at 6pm CST. Don't forget the DT will have  sneak peeks for you all week so be sure to check the Trendy blog often. 

Both are in the store now!
