Trendy Bakers Twine~Green & Kraft Treat

Good morning!  Today I am on the Trendy Twine blog with a fun masculine treat packet in the green and kraft color scheme.  It features one of our twists of the month, Krazy for Kraft Trendy Twine.

I started by gluing a piece of burlap at the bottom of a Leaf Green Treat Packet, then wrapping the front with Krazy for Kraft Trendy Twine.  I really love the masculine feel of those colors and textures together!

Next, I stamped the sentiment from APB You've Got Mail stamps using Olive ink and the heart from APB You & Me stamps using Succulent ink. Those inks were from Scrapbook.com and I love how they kept the greens monochromatic throughout the project.  The final touch was to add Twisted Lime Sequins using mini glue dots.  The one I added to the heart was to mask the little flower on the stamp so it could keep with the masculine theme.  I added M&M's as the treat inside.  Yummy!

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Lightning Bugs Card

Hello all!  Today I am on the Trendy Twine blog with this fun lightning bug card...or do you call them fireflies?  One way or the other, this card sure made me smile while I was creating it!

The image stamps were from Pink & Main's Way to Glow stamp set and were cut around using a Brother Scan N Cut.  The sentiment stamp is from Annie Paper Boutique's Greetings stamp set, which is a must have set (and currently on a fantastic sale!).  All were stamped with black ink and I then colored the images with Artify alcohol markers.  I made this card for my niece who loves purple, so I had to find papers to match the colored bugs!  Instead of matting the strip of plaid paper, I added lines of Totally Kraft Trendy Twine and Totally Lemon Trendy Twine next to it for definition.  The focal point was die cut using Cottage Cutz stitched circle and scalloped circle dies.  I added more Totally Kraft Trendy Twine around the handle of the net to look like a grip.  The final embellishments were a trio of Grape Fizz Sequins and a bit of Wink of Stella glitter on the wings and lights of the bugs.  Adhesives used include Bearly Art precision glue, ATG, and foam tape.

Farm Birthday Card

Hello all!  Today I am popping in quick to share this card I created for my nephew's 2nd birthday recently.  He is a farm boy through and through and I knew the Doodlebug Design papers/punchouts I had on had would be perfect for a card for him!

The papers I mentioned were part of a random Doodlebug pack that I had purchased at Joann a couple years ago, and I was thrilled to see these items in it!  All of the shapes you see were inluded.  The stamped sentiment on the tag is a retired stamp.  I added Cherry Latte Trendy Twine to the tag and GMD Peacock enamel dots to embellish.  Adhesives used include ATG, Bearly Art precision glue, and foam tape.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
