Trendy Bakers Twine - Santa Treat

Hello and Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!
Theresa here from Theresa's Crafty Creations
 and I'm back as Guest Designer for Trendy Twine!

This is my last Month as Guest Host and I really hope
I've shared some fun ways to use Trendy Twine on your projects! 


This month they are featuring Christmas Mint Trendy Twine



Such a YUMMY Color Combo!!! 



School gets out in a couple of days for us, and I
needed another last-minute treat for another  co-worker 
so I created this - 



I love how the candy treat matches the Santa Topper!



This came together pretty quickly - I used a Ric Rac Topper Die I have and
a Santa Story Book Die I have, a Stitched Circle die, and a Stitched banner
die - I put the pieces together the way I liked and then I grabbed
a fun sentiment stamp from the Merry & Bright Stamp Set and
heat embossed that in black - 
I stapled the topper to my treat and then tied some Christmas Mint Twine 
around one corner then made a tiny bow with it - 

Super CUTE and I can't wait to give this to my friend!

Trendy Bakers Twine - Chevron Treat bag

Hello and Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!
Theresa here from Theresa's Crafty Creations
and I'm back as Guest Designer for Trendy Twine!

This is my last Month as Guest Host and I really hope
I've shared some fun ways to use Trendy Twine on your projects! 


This month they are featuring Christmas Mint Trendy Twine



Such a YUMMY Color Combo!!! 



Since Christmas is just around the corner, I thought
I would make a yummy treat for a Co-Worker!



It's a Shaker!!! EEK! I love making shakers!!! :)



I started out by grabbing a Red Chevron Treat bag and filling it with some
yummy chocolates, then I grabbed my Mitten Shaker die set and
cut out the mittens in white cardstock then I
stamped some snowflakes on them in red and green ink - 

I made one layer the shaker element using some assorted
holiday sequins from my stash and then I added the
Sentiment using the Merry & Bright Stamp set -

I wanted the sentiment to POP, so I used black heat embossing
Then I wrapped some Christmas Mint Twine around the trim
of both mittens - then attached it to my Chevron treat bag -

I decided to dress it up a little more by adding a bow on the shaker mitten
and at the top of the other mitten - 

Super CUTE and I can't wait to give this to my friend!

Trendy Bakers Twine - Elegant Ornament

Hello and Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!
Theresa here from Theresa's Crafty Creations
and I'm back as Guest Designer for Trendy Twine!

This is my last Month as Guest Host and I really hope
I've shared some fun ways to use Trendy Twine
on your projects! So let's get started!!! :)


This month they are featuring Christmas Mint Trendy Twine



Such a YUMMY Color Combo!!! 
I Love this for the holidays!


Since Christmas is just around the corner, I thought
I would make an ornament!



This ornament turned out so pretty and shimmers on my tree!



I bought a clear ornament bulb from the $ store and thought
I could dress it up with my twine - So I started out by
painting on some Mod podge to my clear ornament
and then just adding the Christmas Mint Twine on top
of that. I continued the process until I got all the way to the bottom
Once that was done, I let it sit to dry completely (it didn't take long)
and then I spritzed my ornament with some sparkle sheer shimmer spray -

After that dried for a few minutes, I tied a strip of the Mint Twine
around the very top part of the bulb and added 2 small gold bells to the ends - 
Then I found some glittery flowers in my stash
and attached them to the top with some hot glue - 

I really do like how my ornament turned out - it looks very elegant

Trendy Twine - Grateful Treat

Hello and Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!
Theresa here from Theresa's Crafty Creations
and I'm back as Guest Designer for Trendy Twine!


This month they are featuring Orange Truffle Trendy Twine



So PERFECT for Fall & Thanksgiving!!


I decided to make a treat for Thanksgiving Day -



This one turned out so Elegant!

I started out by grabbing a Mini Kraft Treat Bag and then
used my embossing buddy all over it - 
Then I grabbed a leaf stamp from my stash & some versamark ink
and stamped the bag - I put copper embossing powder
all over the image and heat set it -  
It turned out so lovely -
I found a piece of designer paper that looked like wood
and stamped a sentiment & embossed it in the copper embossing powder
then I pulled out 2 glittery leaves from my embellishments and
adhered the sentiment banner and leaves to my bag -

Then I grabbed a mini Clothespin and attached it to the
top of my bag to keep it closed and made a lovely
bow with the Truffle Twine then adhered the bow to the clothespin

This is going to look so lovely on my table for Thanksgiving
I made enough for the couple of people that will be here -


The Kraft treat bag is from Annie's Paper Boutique

Trendy Twine Fall Gift Bag Card

Hello & Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!
Theresa here from Theresa's Crafty Creations and
I'm back as this month's Guest Designer!

Today, I thought I would share a re-purpose idea that I had! 
I saw these beautiful Fall Gift bags at the Dollar Tree -


and thought... WOW! These would be beautiful on a card!
YUP! that's where I'm going with this...

Check out what I created --



So, to start I cut up the pretty gift bag - Then I sized it
to fit thru my sizzix machine where I used a Stitched Frame die
Then I had some DCWV Burlap paper and cut that down to size as well

I adhered them both together then I wrapped some
Orange Truffle Trendy Twine around the card front
I let that sit off to the side for a minute while
I used a couple different leaf punches I have with some
DCWV Fall designer paper and then I placed them on my card front

I knew I was going to use that sweet pie image from
it on some Neenah solar white cardstock and colored
it with my Prismacolor pencils and some Gamsol

I used a Stitched Circle die to cut it out then I
die-cut another circle in brown cardstock 
I adhered both together and then I grabbed the 
Smile Stamp Set to add the Hello sentiment underneath the pie
I then added this to my card front using some dimensionals -
Once than was done, I attached some Fun Foam to the back of my card front
and adhered it to a dark brown card base -

I felt my card needed a little more, so I made a double bow and attached
it to the front of my card and then added some tiny sequins -

I'm super happy with how this card turned out and it's 
ready to go out in the mail to someone special!!!

This month they are featuring Orange Truffle Trendy Twine



So PERFECT for Fall & Thanksgiving!!


I decided to make a sweet Treat for another co-worker



This one was so fun to make!!

I started out by grabbing a Mini Kraft Treat Bag and then
stamping the pie image all over it - Then I colored them up with some
Colored Pencils, then I grabbed some Fall Designer papers
and die cut out a Tag & some pumpkins - 

I stamped some sweet faces on my pumpkins and then attached 
them to my tag - I stamped the sweet treats sentiment on
some white cardstock then grabbed a banner die
to cut it out and placed it over my tags & pumpkins -

I tied the kraft bag up with some of that lovely 
Orange Truffle Twine and attached the tag then
created a bow to hold it together - 

This was well received by the recipient! She loved
the pumpkin pies all over the bag!

Trendy Twine - Spook-Tacular!

Hello and Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!
Theresa here from Theresa's Crafty Creations
and I'm back as Guest Designer for Trendy Twine!


This month they are featuring Black Licorice Trendy Twine



So PERFECT for HALLOWEEN!!


I decided to make a FUN Halloween card with Scraps!!!



This one was super easy to put together!



I just used the scraps that I had leftover from the
Metal Treat Tin I Made earlier this month (Click Here)

What happened was I made the candy nugget strips a little
longer than I thought so I had to cut them down and
it left me with these little pieces which worked perfectly for this card! 

I added all the little scrap pieces to a 3 x 3 1/2
piece of cardstock then grabbed a couple of smaller strips in 
purple & green to go across my card front and of course, 
added some of that cool Black Licorice Twine
and fun Halloween Sentiment and placed it on top of a white
stitched rectangle card front - then I added a cute image
I colored up last year and popped the whole thing up
on some Fun foam and attached it to an orange card base!
I added some sequins for fun and now it's ready to be mailed off!


The Sentiment Stamp is from
