Trendy Bakers Twine~Coffee Note Card

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here 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:

Coffee Treats for The Holiday Season

  Hello, crafty friends! 

Guest Designer, Lisa here from LisaMensing.com. 

Today I'm sharing two quick and simple, coffee-themed treat bags for the Holiday season.

These bags are great for gifting freshly roasted coffee beans, chocolate-covered espresso beans, or any coffee-flavored candies this holiday season. 

• Stamp the bags with your favorite coffee-themed stamps using Versafine Clair inks. I used Pinecone on this bag and Nocturne on the second bag ( pictured above).
• Use markers and a ruler to add details to each bag.
• Create a coffee cup-shaped tag using any cup dies or cut-outs
• Add your favorite Trendy Twines to the coffee cup and to tie the gift tag to the bag

Planner Friday - April

Wow, Planner Friday came around again so quickly!  I feel like the months are speeding by and it will be summer before we know it.  Though that's not a bad thing, I can't wait for some sunshine! 

For today's post I wanted to show you how I use my Annie's Paper Boutique stamps to help keep me organised and add a little fun to my planner pages too.  

Products used: Perfect Pairs planner stamps

Check It Off planner stamps

At Home planner stamps

School Days planner stamps

Need Coffee planner stamps

Coffee gold planner clip

Trendy Page Dots

I knew when I started planning my week that I was going to be busier than usual so I added plenty of check boxes for my daily to dos using a stamp from the Check It Off set and then added my reminders and lists with stamps from the At Home and School Days sets.  I reinforced the holes in my pages with colourful Trendy Page Dots, paired them with some bright and cheery washi tape and added one of my favourite coffee planner clips.

Talking of coffee I knew I was going to need a lot of caffeine see me through the week so I made it the theme for my pages!   There is a special set of  APB stamps for my fellow coffee addicts, aptly called Need Coffee and they are the perfect size for planner pages as they are quite small so you will still have have plenty of space left to make your notes around them.  I also used a larger coffee stamp from the Perfect Pairs set in my Sunday section as I have less to do that day and had more space for decoration.  The last thing I did was to colour in the stamps with fineliners and pencil crayons and then I was ready to face the week!

My week fuelled by coffee

I have to admit I am glad it is Friday now as my week is winding down a little.  I might have had a lot to do but every time I opened my planner I was greeted with a cheerful spread which made my tasks seem less daunting.  

How do you get through a busy week?

Don't forget to stop by the store to check out all the lovely planning supplies and I'll be back again next month for another Planner Friday!

Planner Friday - January

Hello!  Happy new year!  Welcome to the first Planner Friday of 2016,  I am Amanda from She's Eclectic and I'm the planner gal here on the Trendy Twine blog.  I have been using planner stamps and lots of other goodies from Annie's Paper Boutique for nearly two years now and they have really helped me stay organised and be a little creative too.  I know that I would get myself into a muddle if I didn't use a diary of some kind and as I check mine regularly I like to have some fun decorating my pages and inject some colour into my days!

Products used: School Days Planner Stamp Set

Check It Off Planner Stamp Set

At Home Planner Stamp Set

Need Coffee! Planner Stamp Set

Weekend Banner Planner Stamp

Stamp Block with Finger Grooves

Trendy Page Dots - circle reinforcements

Memento Inks

Washi Tape

I find January quite a hard month to get through, I get so excited for Christmas in December and then wet, grey January rears it's head and spoils everything!  I have been using a lot of pink in my planner to cheer myself up and to be honest I am still drinking festive coffees to keep a little Christmas happiness alive inside me... gingerbread latte anyone?  Peppermint hot chocolate?  So inspired by my caffeine addiction I decided to use the Need Coffee! Planner Stamp Set to decorate my pages this week.

The set includes five super cute coffee style illustrations and then a collection of different coffee quotes and hashtags to make you smile or give you a giggle.  The stamps in this set are smaller than the ones in the Drinks & More set I have used before so they don't take up much room.  They fit easily inside the Erin Condren and Happy Planner boxes as well as on my Filofax pages, I think they are perfect for most types of planners.

My week so far

Did you get a new planner for Christmas or have you decided to get organised this year?  If you feel inspired to try your had at decorating your pages or giving planner stamps a go why not check out the store and see if anything takes your fancy?

I hope to see you again in February!

Trendy Twine~ COFFEE!

Good Morning Everyone!

Jessica from Chick-n-Scrap here!

It's a new month and time to showcase some new products from Trendy Twine. Some of my favorites I must add!!!

All month long you will be seeing projects using the 

Cherry Latte Trendy Twine, Mini Coffee cups, and Mini Spoons.

And what better way to showcase these adorable products then making a mini coffee gift set!

To make my project I took the Mini Coffee Cup and added some plain red cardstock around the cup. Next I took an adorable die cut coffee cup from My Creative Time and where the "sleeve" on the cup would be, I wrapped some of the Cherry Latte Trendy Twine around. I added a die cut red heart to the top and punched a hole in the upper corner to turn this into a tag. Using the Mini Wooden Spoon, I stamped the sentiment onto the handle and then was able to hold it all in place by wrapping more of the Cherry Latte Trendy Twine around the top. Filled with a K-cup or even some chocolates, this would make such a sweet treat, don't you think???

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

Cherry Latte Trendy Twine

Mini Coffee cups

Mini Spoons
