Trendy Bakers Twine~Back To School

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here with a back to school post. Today all of my kids are heading back to school, and I am sure they will be starting soon where you are too. My projects feature In The Navy Trendy Twine and printable focal points from Annie's Paper Boutique.

First up, I made a simple pencil treat bag. I added pencils that I had laser engraved with affirmation sayings into a 2"x8" zip bag, closed it, and added a Let's Start This Year Off Write Printable Bag Topper. I didn't want to take attention away from the sayings on the pencils, so I chose to simply wrap In The Navy Trendy Twine around the bag multiple times and tied it in a knot. Easy peasy!

Next up, I created a small card to go with the pencils using a Happy First Day of School Print & Punch Tag as the focal point. It was layered with a die cut from Pink & Main's Card Cut Essentials Dies set 2 and adhered with foam tape to the base. For the base, I used scraps of patterned paper from Doodlebug Design School Days 6x6" paper pad and wrapped In The Navy Trendy Twine around the center. The only other embellishment I used was a couple Blue Berry Sequins.

Now you have a couple quick ideas for school kids using printables from Annie's Paper Boutique along with just a few other supplies!

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

Trendy Bakers Twine - Happy First Day of School

Hi Trendy Fans!

This is Shelly from MyPaperLove and I'm excited to share a Back to School treat with you today. This month we are sharing our projects using the spotlight items from Annie's Paper Boutique. APB just released several new printables to make your back to school treats a breeze!

Here is my little pencil treat holder. I created this little box to hold the 2x8" Zip Bags.  These bags perfectly fit 6 pencils. My little box was handmade and sized to the bag. You can search for templated for pencil treat holders and find one that suits you. I used a 6" x 5.5" sheet of card stock and score on the SHORT side at 1/2″, 3/4″, 3″ and 3 1/4″. Turn and score on the LONG side at 1/4″ (this is the bottom), cut away the tiny little square on the left side and then cut up on the vertical score lines at the bottom only to the horizontal score line (these are the flaps for the bottom of the box. This should give you the perfect size box for these zip Bags.

Next, I added one of the new printables Happy First Day of School Print & Punch Tag. 

These are just about the easiest to use, just print and punch with a 2"punch or die cut. I also added another die cut to frame the tag and then wrapped my box with Totally Red Trendy Twine.

I hope you will stop by the Trendy Blog and check out all the fun this month. Here are all the products I've used for my project.
