SheetLoad of School Cards

Hello all! I am sharing a project that I completed a while ago but hadn't gotten around to sharing yet. It is a SheetLoad of school themed cards!

I made 4 cards using the sketch from the April 2024 SheetLoad of Cards. The patterned papers and stamps I used were all from Echo Park Paper. Along the diagonal cut lines of the red paper panel, I added strips of 1/8" tape for extra definition. The stamped panel was layered die cuts from the Pink Fresh Studio essential label dies set. The sticker sheet included in the paper kit was just right for embellishments on these cards!

I used the scraps from the 4 original cards to create this one. It is fun to just let a layout for a card develop as it goes! Adhesives used on these cards include ATG and Bearly Art precision tip glue.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Halloween Treat Bag

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!

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

Lime Licorice Trendy Twine

Black Chevron Treat Bag

Mango Tag-It

Lime Orangesicle Trendy Page Dot

Happy Halloween Cat Print & Punch Tag

Bewitching Sequins

If you don't need a full spool of the Lime Licorice I used, check out this Halloween Sampler with several colors in it! Each twist is 10 yards in length and wrapped on a wooden clothespin for easy storage.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Halloween Card Set

Hello all! Halloween is just around the corner, and I have a set of cards with that theme for the Trendy Twine blog to share with you today.

In an attempt to work smarter, not harder, I used Pink and Main's Card Cut Essentials dies 1&2 plus 2.5 sheets of 6x6" MAMBI Halloween paper to dit cut all the elements that you see on these cards. Once the pieces were all cut, I simply laid out different die cut elements that I thought worked well together and I ended up with 6 cards full of Halloween cuteness and elements from Annie's Paper Boutique!

All of the cards have Lime Licorice Trendy Twine featured on them in one technique or another. Really any of the Halloween Trendy Twines would have worked, but in effort to keep things simple, I just stuck with the one twist.

They also all have different sentiments from the APB Happy Halloween stamp set on them. I love the fun fonts and variety of cute sayings in that set! I used Versafine Onyx Black ink for those.

The stamped Halloween kids are from a retired Victorine Originals stamp set, but you can make anything the focal point of your cards! One great option would be to grab some Halloween Tags from Annie's Paper Boutique. There are so many different styles! Another easy peasy choice to use as your focal point are APB Halloween printables you can print off on your own printer. You can find them HERE and HERE.

To embellish the cards, I used Bewitching Sequins and glued them on with Bearly Art precision glue.

Other items used on these cards include ATG, foam tape, SB.com hybrid black ink, Artify alcohol markers, and a Cottage Cutz stitched circle die. Now I have a head start on my cards to send out for Halloween! What have you been making for the upcoming holidays?

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Coffee Note Card

Hello all! I am posting for the Trendy Twine blog today with this coffee themed note card and envelope set. Our Trendy Twine twist of the month, Chocolate Truffle, goes perfectly with that theme!

I started with a White Scallop Note Card base and added a bit of patterned paper from Echo Park's Coffee 6x6 paper pad. I then used MFT Coffee Cup die-namics to die cut the to-go coffee cup. I stamped a sentiment in black ink from the APB Need Coffee stamp set.  After wrapping Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine around the center of the cup and tying it in a bow, I used foam tape to pop the cup up on the front of the card. To finish the card off, I used Bearly Art glue to add a trio of Chocolate Truffle Sequins.

I didn't want to stop there, so I grabbed a Kraft Small Envelope and the APB Need Coffee stamp set and decorated the envelope flap. The best part is the scallop note cards fit perfectly into those small kraft envelopes, and they are both the perfect size for gift cards! Now I just need to grab a coffee gift card to place inside and it will be ready to give as a gift. 

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

Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine

White Scallop Note Card

APB Need Coffee stamp set

Chocolate Truffle Sequins

Kraft Small Envelope
