Trendy Twine Holiday Gift Tin

Hey there!

It's Tammy from Creating Somewhere Under The Sun, and I am sharing a project using the Candy Tin, but not using it for candy. :) This month is all about gift giving!

I took some pictures to show you how I started out. I added some adhesive to a gift card and stuck it in the bottom of the tin to hold the gift card in place.

Next I added a festive bar of handmade soap on top.

If you are not a crafty person or limited on supplies this alone makes an adorable way to give a gift card and gift as you see below, but it's always fun to dress up further of course. :)

 

I trimmed it out with Candy Cane Trendy Twine adding a triple bow to the corner embellished with a red gem to the center.

Trendy Twine~ Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Good Morning Everyone!

Jessica from Chick-n-Scrap here!

A new month of spotlighted products from Trendy Twine has the DT showcasing the gorgeous Christmas Twine Colors.
Today I am sharing a Christmas treat inspired project using my featured twine color of the month~
Candy Cane Trendy Twine and a Candy Tin

These make the best quick and easy gifts..fill with some goodies and embellish and they are ready to give :) For my project I used some Hershey Chocolate Nuggets and wrapped them using the holiday paper from Recollections. I was able to get 10 pieces inside the tin nicely and they are all cushioned in some paper shredding.

For my outside embellishing, I use the matching paper from Recollections to make a belly band. This not only holds the tin in place but allows a place for my sentiment. I wrapped some Candy Cane Trendy Twine around the belly band 2 times and tied it off to the side with a bow. For some extra holiday cheer, I did add some fun silver jingle bells.

My sentiment and die cuts come from My Creative Time~ Belly Band sets.

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

Hey Everyone!

Merry Christmas Eve!

Jamie here and this is my last post for the Trendy Twine Design Team.... It's been awesome being on the team for the last 2 years and I will miss sharing my projects with everyone each month!  I've loved creating all kinds of fun projects with twine and I hope you continue to visit me over at my blog. I always love trying out new ways to use twine on my projects!

I used some Candy Cane on my project today.

I made a bow with some of the Chevron Ribbon from the store and then added some Candy Cane Twine to the center on top of a sparkly green button. Then I also tied on a tag with some more twine. 

Here's the full shadow box filled with jingle bells and I cut the saying out with vinyl. 

You can pick up some of the Candy Cane Twine HERE.

Hello, it's Kate here with you today.  Hope you all had a Great Weekend and are ready for Christmas.

It's my DT Day over at Trendy Twine and I have an Adorable Card today.  This will also be my last post for Trendy Twine for awhile...

Please excuse my coloring, I haven't colored it in awhile or as I used too.  I fear I need to re-practice again.

Here is my Card

The Twine I used on my project today is

Candy Cane

I used the Card Base from SVG Cutting Files called Fancy Fold Over.

I used a Die from Spellpinders

Jaded Blossom's Mini Tag Dies and Merry and Bright Stamp Set.

Christmas Gift Giving Ideas

Good Morning Trendy Twiners!!

Jessica here from Chick-n-Scrap with 2 more Christmas gift giving ideas using the 

Candy Cane Trendy Twine

For my first project I used a Cotton Bag and came up with this...

So cute right? 

I used the adorable Unity Stamp~ You Melt My Heart and stamped it onto my cotton bag using Stazon Black Ink. Then using some Candy Cane Trendy Twine and a needle, I sewed the twine into the heart and on the scarf in a very simple up and down pattern. After coloring the hat using my copic markers, I added some Christmas/Xmas red Stickles as well as some Orange Peel Stickles to his nose. I pulled out the string that comes with the Cotton Bag and threaded more of the Candy Cane Trendy Twine through the opening and tied knots to the ends of each side. To finish up my project, I added a cute die cut tag and filled the bag with some chocolate nuggets.

For my next project, I had to make some more Candy Sticks using the Skinny Candy Bags. These are perfect for handing out and I ended up making 25 of these for my son's class :)

I filled each of the Skinny Candy Bags with some red and green M&M's and sealed them shut, making sure to leave about an inch or so clear on the top. Then using my Cameo and a file I picked up in the Silhouette Store, I cut all the pieces for my reindeer toppers. I stamped his eyes using a Peachy Keen Stamps set, added some white gel pen doodles and made his nose sparkly with some Christmas/Xmas Red Stickles. To attach the tags to the bags, I tied some Candy Cane Trendy Twine around the tops of the bags (leaving some of the clear bag top to show) and then tied the tags in a bow on top.

 I hope you  have enjoyed my projects and will give some of these gifts a try!

Merry Christmas Eve! Trendy Tree Card

Hey Everyone!

Merry Christmas Eve!

It's Jamie here to share a new project with you. 

I used Candy Cane twine for the tree and some Chocolate Truffle for the trunk. To make the tree I used the rhinestone feature on my Silhouette Studio, then put the twine through the holes at a diagonal. Then I just added a few rhinestones and a star to bling it up!

You can get Candy Cane and Holly Berry on sale now here.

Have a Merry Christmas!

Jack Frost in Twine

With the way I made ol' Jack's eyes, I might be talking about the horror movie, Jack Frost. Haha I should have tried to make him less demented looking. Maybe googly eyes would have softened his features. Oh my, just thinking about him with spinning eyes is cracking me up!

This month's Trendy Twine spotlight color is Candy Cane and Holly Berry. I choose to use the Candy Cane twine for Jack here because it has a bit of white in it. I just thought I would try something different with my twine. I like to use twine in totally new ways then just making a bow and putting it on a card. There is nothing wrong with that (probably going to do that with my Christmas cards), I just like to push the envelope on what twine can be used for. Not every idea works out. The project I was making before Jack here should be on Pinterest Fails...seriously.

I drizzled his hat with glitter glue to simulate frost and snow. To make Jack was pretty simple. I just wrapped twine around three different sized Styrofoam balls. Stabbed some wire arms into the sides not forgetting to give him his buttons and facial features too. That's pretty much all there is to making this little guy. Speaking of little, he is less than 5" tall.  He's my baby Jack.

So, is he cute? Or is he on his way to star in his own horror movie? Let me know in the comments. Also, I would love if you visited me at my blog for more twiney goodness - The Happy Card Encouragement Factory.

Supplies:
Candy Cane Trendy Twine
Styrofoam balls
wire for arms

Snowman Ornament

Hi Everyone! Candi here with you again from chaos-n-crafts.blogspot.com. Are you ready for Christmas yet? My girls are bouncing up and down counting the moments and their excitement is just contagious! For my personal project this month I decided to make an ornament.

As you'll remember we're featuring TWO gorgeous colors of twine this month! Candy Cane & Holly Berry (and both are on sale!) I used Candy Cane for my snowman ornaments hat. You can find more details on my BLOG if you're interested.

If you haven't linked up for our December Challenge you still have plenty of time! There are some adorable links, make sure to add yours too!

Thanks for looking!

Merry Christmas Layout

For my project, I have a double page 12x12 layout to share.  The train, some of the gifts, the tag and the photo mat gifts were all accented with Candy Cane Trendy Twine.  The candy cane banner, some of the gifts and the button were embellished with Holly Berry both of which are on sale this month.

The train was joined together with some Black Licorice. Berry Red was also used on the presents. These colors were all perfect for this Christmas layout.

There are more details about my project on my blog.  Don't forget our tag challenge going on this month.  Happy Monday!  Sukie
