Trendy Bakers Twine - Clown Treat!

Hi Trendy Fans,

This is Shelly with My Paper Love with a fun treat to share.  This month we are featuring Cherry Licorice twine. It's a festive twist of red and black. I happened to be going through my stamps and came across this super cute image, and I really wanted to use it for my project. 

I found a circle tag and cut it using a high quality card stock. I stamped this little clown and then colored him using my copics and colored pencils.  

I took this picture before I tied the tag onto the treat so you can see the treat packaging. I used short-candy-chutes from Annie's Paper Boutique. I filled them with some candy and some fun basket filler.

This is the last day for our spotlight color, be sure to check back on the blog for a new color tomorrow!

Have a nice day!

Trendy Bakers Twine ~ Motorcycle Cards

Hello friends!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here.  Our featured twine for the month is Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine.  I decided to do something very different from the love theme that is generally present this month and made some masculine cards.

My first card uses our featured Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine wrapped around the background papers.  I stamped a motorcycle from Raisin Boat's Highway High stamp set in black then heat embossed it with clear powder for shine.  The sentiment was from the same set and was stamped with VersaMark and heat embossed with white powder.

I die cut around it with oval dies then popped that panel up with foam tape over the Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine.  Two square sequins from the Christmas Shaker Medley were attached in the top right corner using Glue Dots.

After making the red card, I had to make one with Orange Licorice Trendy Twine!  I love how the orange really pops against the black and grays. It was made in the same way as the red card except I used enamel dots to embellish instead of sequins.

Here you can see the shine of the embossing on the motorcycle.

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

Trendy Bakers Twine -- Much Love

Hello all!  I'm Helen from HTB Creations.  I'm sharing a card that could be a valentine, but it doesn't have to be!  I used Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine and two different sequin mixes from Annie's Paper Boutique.

The heart tree is from MFT stamps.  I thought it would be perfect for my Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine.  I made the red base, and the white top layer.  Then I wrapped my twine around the card and tied the bow at the tree base in the middle.  

I then cut out a small tag and embossed my sentiment onto it.  Then I took a black sequin from the Lemon Midnight Sequin Mix and a red one from the Candy Cane Sequins.  It's good to own them all from the store so that I can mix and match LOL!

Keep checking back for more fun projects!

Trendy Bakers Twine - LOVE

Hi Trendy Fans!

This is Shelly with My Paper Love sharing a Valentines card for my love :) This month we are featuring Cherry Licorice twine. It's a festive twist of red and black. I just love these colors for Love day, but I also used it for Christmas as well. It's such a great twist!

I just started with a bunch of die cuts. I used a mat die cut and the letters are also a die cut. I just layered them to add a little highlight to the black letters. It makes the word pop just a bit more.

I made a sweet little twine heart using Cherry Licorice twine. I love how the twine looks on the heart.

Stop by the blog this month and see all the design projects using this gorgeous twine!

Have a nice day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Valentine Treat Bags

Hello friends!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here with you today.  Our featured twine for the month is Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine.  It is perfect for Valentine's Day treats and so much more!

I decorated Large Treat Sacks with toppers for today's project.  Starting with white cardstock folded in half, I stamped  APB You & Me Planner Stamps in red and black inks, making each topper different.  I then accented each topper with Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine, each in a unique way.

I wrapped the Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine around three times then added a bow.

This one has three bows glued to the centers of the arrows.

This final one simply has rows of Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine at angles.  I attached the toppers to the Large Treat Sacks with Linear Coverage Glue Dots.  Now these treats are ready for Valentine's Day!

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

Trendy Bakers Twine -- XO OX Treats

Hello everyone!  I'm Helen from HTB Creations.  It's finally February!  January really did seem like a very long month.  It didn't help that it rained a lot where I live.  This month, the Trendy Gals are showcasing Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine.  I also used Candy Cubes 2x2 Boxes and the Smile Stamp Set.

I have these cute buffalo plaid SVG files that I just got last week.  They go perfectly with our Cherry Licorice Trendy Twine!  The original plan was to just put them on the box, but I wanted them to pop.  So I wrapped a 1 1/2 inch piece of white card stock around the box after wrapping my Twine around the box a few times.

Next, I put foam tape on all the pieces.  Even the tiny heart.  It was thing pieces of tape! There's an XO and OX on each box.

To finish it off, I cut a small tag from a die I have and stamped the Smile from the Smile Stamp Set onto it and punched a hole.  Then I slipped it through one of the pieces of twine and finished it off with a box.  I also added a small red enamel dot that I just picked up this weekend.  I love craft shopping for February!

There's lots more fun to come this month so keep checking back! And check out these other fun places:
