Trendy Bakers Twine~Wedding Card in Greens

Hello all!  We are in the first week of spring and I cannot wait to see things start to green up soon!  Green is the color of the month, with us featuring Twisted Lime Trendy Twine.  For today's project for the Trendy Twine blog, I made a wedding card in greens and grays which was definitely a first for me, but I am happy with how it turned out!

First of all, I needed to make the heart out of Twisted Lime Trendy Twine.  I cut 3 lengths of the twine and saturated it with fabric starch, shaped the heart how I wanted it and let it completely dry.  The background of the card was created with DCWV Happy Day papers and GMD Triple Layer Background dies, glued together with Bearly Art precision tip glue.  The Trendy Twine heart was glued down next, then the stamped panel was popped up with foam tape.  To create the stamped panel, I used retired Raisin Boat stamp sets called Springtime Love and True Love with Scrapbook.com inks in Charcoal and Succulent and cut them out with my Brother Scan N Cut.  The wedding rings were punched out of silver metallic paper using a 1/2" punch and then centered that within a 3/4" punch and they were simply glued on the sentiment panel.  To add a bit of sparkle, I glued a trio of Twisted Lime Sequins to the background.

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

You can also find Twisted Lime in the Going Green Sampler.  Samplers are a great way to add to your Trendy Twine collection. Each color in the set is ten yards in length and is wound on a wooden clothespin for easy use and storage.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Best of Luck Tag

Hello all!  We are in the month of March and that means all things GREEN!  The featured Trendy Twine of the month is Twisted Lime and it sure is pretty.  For today's Trendy Twine blog post, I created a "Best of Luck" tag that could easily be a St. Patrick's Day tag just by changing the sentiment.  

First, I started with a White Large Tag-It and stamped a sentiment from the APB Greetings stamp set in black at the bottom.  I then tore the bottom off a Spring Green Large Tag-It and created a die cut shamrock in it by using a small heart die and cutting it 4 times, then using an exacto knife to cut the shamrock stem.  After tracing the shamrock onto the white tag, I placed strong double sided adhesive over the area and simply lined pieces of Twisted Lime Trendy Twine side by side to cover the whole shamrock area.

Foam tape was added to the outside perimeter of the back of the spring green tag to adhere the two tags together.  To embellish, I added a Kraft Brown Trendy Page Dot at the top of the tag and ran two lengths of Twisted Lime Trendy Twine through the tag hole.  A bow of Totally Kraft Trendy Twine secured the green twine pieces.  The finishing touch was gluing Twisted Lime Sequins on the tag with Bearly Art precision tip glue.
