Trendy Bakers Twine~Easter Ducks Tag

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here today with a sweet Easter tag. I absolutely fell in love with the Easter Basket Ducks Retro Tag and knew I wanted that as my focal point. This tag would be great on an Easter basket or treat!

I started with a Pink Chunky Tag-It, then adhered a 3" Paper Doily offset to the tag. I then popped the Easter Basket Ducks Retro Tag up with foam tape at an angle on the front. At the top of the tag, I used Turquoise Chevron Ribbon and tied a bow of Bubblegum Taffy Trendy Twine around it. The sentiment was from the APB Greetings Stamp set and was stamped in gray VersaFine Clair ink. As a final touch, I glued Cotton Candy Sequins to the tag.

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Football Card

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here with you today. School time is upon us, and with it, sports! My youngest son decided he wanted to try football this year, so I made a card for his first game that is coming up. Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine was the perfect accent for the card, of course!

I started off by cutting the football with my Silhouette Cameo. I simply used a football that is built into my Sure Cuts A Lot software. I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder to create the texture on the football. The base of the card was created with kraft and brown cardstock as well as patterned paper from The Paper Studio's Boys Will Be Boys paper pad. I wrapped Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine around the background three times, then adhered it to the card base with Bearly Art Glue. The football was popped up with foam tape. I stamped a sentiment in green ink from the Greetings stamp set onto a pennant shaped banner. I inked around the outside of the white cardstock with brown ink to distress it, then glued it to the card front. A bow of Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine by the sentiment added another great touch of texture. The finishing elements were Chocolate Truffle Sequins for some shine. 

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Masculine With Thanks Card

Hello all, Beth from Beth's Beauties here today! This month we are spotlighting Bumblebee Trendy Twine, a bright, cheerful twist of black and yellow. It is such a versatile color! Today, I am sharing a masculine card with it.

The patterned papers are from DCWV's Honey Dear stack. I thought they were great for a guy card and the colors were a perfect match with Bumblebee Trendy Twine! The background paper was cut to 4"x5.25" and the yellow plaid strip was cut to 2''x4.75". I then matted the narrow strip with black cardstock cut to 2.25"x5" and cut one end at 1.25" to create both sides of the strip. The cut ends border the outer edges of the card. I used my Crop-A-Dile and 1/18" eyelets and 20" of Bumblebee Trendy Twine to create the lacing area. I did not adhere the yellow strip until after it was loosely laced, then once both sides were glued in place, I tightened the laces and tied a bow.

The focal point was created with a Kraft Bracket Card matted with a black die cut from CC stitched rounded rectangle dies. The toolbench stamp is retired from a SumMore Fun set called Handy Man and was stamped with SB.com Rainy Day ink. The sentiment was from the APB Greetings stamp set (on SALE for only $9!) and was stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black ink. The Kraft Bracket Card was popped up with foam tape for a little extra dimension.

 If you are looking for more inspiration on what you can create with Bumblebee Trendy Twine, you can see some of my past projects using it HERE.

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Celebrate Spring Cards

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here today. It is officially SPRING and I am so excited to share my latest creations with that theme. They feature the beautiful Cotton Candy Trendy Twine.

I started by choosing springtime patterned paper, which is from Jillibean Soup's Coconut Lime 6x6 paper pad. I utilized the November 2023 SheetLoad of Cards sketch as a way to showcase several visually interesting techniques/supplies.

I really loved the diagonal strips of paper. It was something different than I usually do! The Cotton Candy Trendy Twine was a perfect accent to add between those paper strips. It adds great texture to the card! The vellum circle was die cut with a Cottage Cutz stitched scallop circle die and was adhered to the card front with foam tape. I die cut the GMD spring flower arrangement die out of white to allow the patterned papers and little punched out butterflies to shine!

The sentiment is from the Greetings stamp set and was stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black ink. The banner, tiny butterflies, and flower were all adhered with Bearly Art precision glue. Don't the bright and beautiful colors on these cards make you smile? These will be great for birthday cards or just to brighten someone's day.

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

Cotton Candy Trendy Twine

Greetings stamp set (currently on sale for $8)

You can also find Cotton Candy along with Posy and Sky in the Cotton Candy Sampler. Each color is ten yards in length, perfect for building a variety of Trendy Twine colors!

Trendy Bakers Twine~SheetLoad of Red, White, & Blue Cards

Hello all!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here.  This month we are sharing patriotic projects on the Trendy Twine blog.  It is always fun to use the patriotic twines of Berries Jubilee Trendy Twine and Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine!  Today I am sharing a SheetLoad of red, white, & blue cards.

I decided to make a set of cards that could be used in a patriotic way, but also more versatile.  I decided to use the March 2023 SheetLoad of Cards sketch and paper from the BoBunny Celebrating Freedom 6x8 paper pad for today's 8 cards.  The sentiment is from the Greetings stamp set and was stamped in SB.com midnight blue ink.  Once that strip was adhered onto the white/patterned paper panel, I wrapped a length of Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine above and below it.  Using a strong double sided tape, I adhered that panel to the card base.

To embellish, I die cut flowers out of solid cardstock and popped them up with foam tape to the left of the sentiment.  A trio of small gems finished off the card.  Here is a look at all 8 cards!  I enjoyed rotating the papers through all four areas of the card to make different looks.  Now these can be sent out as party invitations OR birthday cards!

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

Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine

Trendy Bakers Twine~Sweet Easter Treat Bag

Good morning!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here.  Easter is right around the corner, so of course, that is the theme of today's project! This sweet Easter treat bag went together easily and would work to make multiples of if needed.

First, I grabbed a Purple Chevron Treat Bag and filled it with York peppermint eggs, YUM!  I folded over the top of the bag to attach the decorated tag.  For that, I utilized a White Large Tag-It that I embossed with a basket weave Darice embossing folder and added egg die cuts to it.  The yellow egg was embossed with a chevron Darice embossing folder to continue the design on the bag.  That egg was popped up with foam tape and a bow of Totally Grape Trendy Twine was glued to it.  A Kraft Brown Trendy Page Dot, a sentiment stamped in black ink from the Greetings stamp set, and Grape Fizz Sequins finished off the tag.  To attach it to the bag, I punched a hole in the bag and wrapped Totally Grape Trendy Twine several times around the top of the hole, creating a fan appearance on the front and securing the Trendy Twine on the back side.

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique, several of which are on sale this month:

Totally Grape Trendy Twine 

Purple Chevron Treat Bag

White Large Tag-It

Kraft Brown Trendy Page Dot

Greetings stamp set

Grape Fizz Sequins

You can also find the twine I used in the Grape Trendy Twine Sampler.  Each color in a sampler is ten yards in length and is wound on a wooden clothes pin 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.  Beth from Beth's Beauties here today, and 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 craft 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.

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

Twisted Lime Trendy Twine

Totally Kraft Trendy Twine

White Large Tag-It

Spring Green Large Tag-It

APB Greetings stamp set

Kraft Brown Trendy Page Dot

Twisted Lime Sequins

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 - Especially for you!

Hi Trendy Fans!

Are you loving all the pink we are sharing this month? Shelly with MyPaperLove here with you today to share a Valentine card perfect for the classroom Valentine exchange. We have been spotlighting Pinkberry Sorbet and Raspberry Cupcake Trendy twine this month and I have enjoyed both creating projects and seeing what Beth created this month!

Today I used Pinkberry Sorbet trendy twine, Library Pockets, and Greetings Stamp Set to create my Valentine treat.

These little Library Pockets can be used to add to your scrapbook, travelers notebook, or planner to hold notes, souvenirs, or mementos. But I thought they would be a perfect holder for a card and even better to add a little surprise inside.

I cut some patterned paper to fit the front of the Library Pocket and found some coordinating paper and cut to fit perfectly inside the pocket. I measured it just so I can add a sentiment from the Greetings Stamp Set to the top of the pocket. Next I added a sweet treat to the Valentine card and then tucked it inside the pocket. 

I added the twine in the form of two Xs on the front for a clean and simple look. These would be so easy to mass produce for you child's classroom Valentine exchange. You can grab 12 for $2.75!
