Trendy Bakers Twine~Halloween Gable Box

Hello all! I have a Halloween themed post for the Trendy Twine blog today. With all of the fun Halloween Trendy Twine twists available, it was hard for me to pick which one to use! I finally decided on Orange Limeade since it complemented the papers I chose the most.

Starting with a Small Gable Box, I added various Halloween printed papers to the panels for a fun array. Using a precision glue press, I adhered Orange Limeade Trendy Twine around the front panel. 

The tag was created with a Mango Tag-It, a Lime Orangesicle Trendy Page Dot at the top, a Happy Halloween Cat Print & Punch Tag popped up with foam tape, and topped off with Orange Limeade Trendy Twine that was tied around the side opening of the gable box. Spellbinding Sequins were the finishing touch to add visual interest and a little bit of shine!

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Orange Limeade Trendy Twine

Mango Tag-Its

Lime Orangesicle Trendy Page Dot

Happy Halloween Cat Print & Punch Tags

Spellbinding Sequins

If you don't need a whole spool of the Trendy Twine I used today, check out the Trick or Treating sampler! It has 10 yards of each twist on wooden clothespins for ease of use and storage.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Back To School

Hello all! I am on the Trendy Twine blog with a back to school post. Today all of my kids are heading back to school, and I am sure they will be starting soon where you are too. My projects today feature In The Navy Trendy Twine and printable focal points from Annie's Paper Boutique.

First up, I made a simple pencil treat bag. I added pencils that I had laser engraved with affirmation sayings into a 2"x8" zip bag, closed it, and added a Let's Start This Year Off Write Printable Bag Topper. I didn't want to take attention away from the sayings on the pencils, so I chose to simply wrap In The Navy Trendy Twine around the bag multiple times and tied it in a knot. Easy peasy!

Next up, I created a small card to go with the pencils using a Happy First Day of School Print & Punch Tag as the focal point. It was layered with a die cut from Pink & Main's Card Cut Essentials Dies set 2 and adhered with foam tape to the base. For the base, I used scraps of patterned paper from Doodlebug Design School Days 6x6" paper pad and wrapped In The Navy Trendy Twine around the center. The only other embellishment I used was a couple Blue Berry Sequins.

Now you have a couple quick ideas for school kids using printables from Annie's Paper Boutique along with just a few other supplies!

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Trendy Bakers Twine~Shine Bright Bag

Hello all! I am sharing a project for the Trendy Twine blog that features Orangesicle Trendy Twine. It is a cheerful orange monochromatic treat bag!

First up, I used an Orange Chevron Treat Bag and added the vertical strips of solid paper. Next, I created the focal point with a Mango Bracket Card stamped with a black sentiment from the Choose Happy stamp set. The flower was made with a button from my stash that I backed with red-lined tape, then added loops of Orangesicle Trendy Twine. I then glued the flower to the bracket card. For a bit of sparkle, I adhered Autumn Sequins to the bag. Now it is ready to add some treats or a gift card to give!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Amazing Tool Treat Bag

Hello all! I am back with a new project for the Trendy Twine blog that features Lemon Midnight Trendy Twine. I mentioned in my last post how much I love the versatility of that twist. This time I created a masculine tool themed treat bag. 

I started with a Kraft Chevron Treat Bag, added washi tape around it, then three rounds of Lemon Midnight Trendy Twine on top of the washi tape. Where the ends of the tape and twine were, I created a little stamped circle using circle punches and the Raisin Boat Nailed It! stamp set. For the tag, I used a Lemon Chunky Tag-It, stamped more tool stamps in black ink and highlighted them with white gel pen. I stamped a sentiment from the APB Choose Happy stamp set in black onto white paper and made a little banner on the tag with it. At the top of the tag, I finished it off with more Lemon Midnight Trendy Twine and attached it to the treat bag with a Mini Wooden Clothespin. Now it is ready to give! It fits a gift card and candy perfectly.

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Trendy Bakers Twine~Spring Treat Bag

Hello all! I am posting for the Trendy Twine blog today with this springy treat bag. It features Posy Trendy Twine.

I started by filling a Kraft Tin Tie Bag and added a banner of patterned paper. The tag is a Posy Tag-It with a Kraft Brown Trendy Page Dot and a sentiment from the Friendship stamp set stamped in black ink. Once the top was shut, I wrapped Posy Trendy Twine around it three times, strung the tag on it, then tied it in a bow.

To decorate the lower portion of the bag, I added a Pink Floral Plank Pattern Heart Seal and Cotton Candy Sequins. I love the country chic feel this treat bag has!

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Trendy Bakers Twine~St. Patty's Candy Cube

Hello all! Today I am on the Trendy Twine blog and with a new month, we have a new Trendy Twine to feature! Limeade Trendy Twine is a twist of bright lime and white, making it perfect for St. Patty's Day projects. Today I am sharing a fun and bright candy cube with that holiday theme.

I started with a clear 2"x2" Candy Cube and filled it with Rainbow flavored Nerds Gummy Clusters. I thought they were the perfect candy for this project! I made a belly band using paper from the Echo Park Happy St. Patrick's Day 6x6 paper pad. I did have to use 2 strips of paper to completely go around the box since it was only 6" wide. Once that was adhered to the box with Scor-tape, I wrapped Limeade Trendy Twine around the box a few times, taking care to not cover up the adorable images on the paper. I also used Bearly Art Precision glue to adhere two Bewitching Sequins for a little sparkle.

On to the top of the box! Annie's Paper Boutique has so many amazing tag-its, but since this box is 2x2 square, I wanted something a little smaller so you could still see the candy in the box, so I made my own. This tag was made with paper from the same paper pad and a banner die from the Pink and Main Card Cut Essentials dies set 2. Since there is a sun on the belly band paper, I used the Hello Sunshine sentiment from the Choose Happy Stamp set. It was stamped with SB.com pure white pigment ink and Wow! bright white embossing powder. I used Limeade Trendy Twine to make a double bow for the top of the tag, then finished it off with one more Bewitching Sequin. Isn't this project sweet?! I can't wait to give it away!

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Limeade Trendy Twine

Candy Cube

Choose Happy Stamps

Bewitching Sequins

If you don't need a whole spool of Limeade, consider the Going Green Sampler! It includes 10 yards each of the following Trendy Twine colors: Limeade, Totally Limeade, Holly, and Twisted Lime.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Valentine Treat Packet

Hello all! Today I am on the Trendy Twine blog with this sweet treat packet. It is perfect for Valentine's Day or any day to give to someone you love! The main star of this project is a Cranberry Treat Packet and it is embellished with Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine. That twist is the perfect twine for Valentine's Day since it has both red and pink!

As I mentioned, I started with a Cranberry Treat Packet and added strips of paper from Echo Park's Love Notes collection. The top flap was decorated with a die cut from GMD Big & Little Pierced Chain Heart die set. I stamped a sentiment on the heart using the APB You & Me stamp set and SB.com Candy Shop Pink ink. The Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine was woven through the big holes around the outside of the die, tied in a bow at the bottom of the heart, then adhered to the treat packet with foam tape. A trio of Raspberry Cupcake Sequins were the finishing touch! Other adhesives used include Bearly Art precision glue and mini Glue Dots. Of course, the best part about these treat packets is they come with little zip top bags that are food safe...to which I added Valentine Nerds Gummy Clusters candy. If you haven't tried this candy yet, do yourself a favor and do so. It is delicious and perfect for your valentine projects!

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Hello all! My latest project for the Trendy Twine blog is a sweet Halloween treat bag. It is a quick way to dress up treats to give to someone special!

I started by placing 2 Reese's candies into the Black Chevron Treat Bag and folded the flap over on it. For the tag, I used a Mango Tag-It, added a Lime Orangesicle Trendy Page Dot and Lime Licorice Trendy Twine to the top. The focal point is a Happy Halloween Cat Print & Punch Tag that I printed off then cut around with my Brother Scan N Cut. Those can also be punched out with a 2" circle punch or die if you have one of those on hand! The chevron circle mat was die cut from Pink and Main's Card Cut Essentials die #2 and was popped up with foam tape on the tag-it. The tag and Bewitching Sequins were adhered with red-lined tape. Now this treat is ready to be given and enjoyed!

Trendy Bakers Twine~North Pole Treat Bag

Hello all! Today I am sharing another Christmas in July post for the Trendy Twine blog. This time I went with a rustic Christmas vibe for a treat bag. Holly Berry Trendy Twine is the perfect color combo for that look!

I started with a Kraft Chevron Treat Bag and stamped a sentiment from the APB Merry & Bright stamp set in SB.com Cardinal Red ink. I then added treats to the bag, but you can also fill these bags with cookies, candy, nail polish, a matchbox car, a toy blind bag, small cosmetics, gift card, etc. The possiblities for this kind of gift wrapping are endless! Once I folded the flap over, I wrapped Holly Berry Trendy Twine around it and tied it in a bow. I then added a North Pole Trading Company No. 2 Retro Tag that I had inked with brown around the edges to make it more vintage looking (The North Pole Trading Company Vintage Inspired Tag would have also been a great pick for this project!) I finished it off with a few O Christmas Tree sequins adhered with mini Glue Dots. 

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Holly Berry Trendy Twine

Kraft Chevron Treat Bag

North Pole Trading Company No. 2 Retro Tag

APB Merry & Bright stamp set

O Christmas Tree sequins

You can find all kinds of Christmas themed Trendy Twine samplers on sale this month, including the Christmas Sampler, which includes the Holly Berry twist that I used on today's project.
