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~Shine Bright Treat Bag

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here to share a new project that features Orangesicle Trendy Twine. It is a cheerful orange monochromatic treat bag!

First up, I used an Orange Chevron Treat Bag and added the vertical strips of solid paper. Next, I created the focal point with a Mango Bracket Card stamped with a black sentiment from the Choose Happy stamp set. The flower was made with a button from my stash that I backed with red-lined tape, then added loops of Orangesicle Trendy Twine. I then glued the flower to the bracket card. For a bit of sparkle, I adhered Autumn Sequins to the bag. Now it is ready to add some treats or a gift card to give!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Amazing Tool Treat Bag

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here with a new project that features Lemon Midnight Trendy Twine. I mentioned in my last post how much I love the versatility of that twist. This time I created a masculine tool themed treat bag. 

I started with a Kraft Chevron Treat Bag, added washi tape around it, then three rounds of Lemon Midnight Trendy Twine on top of the washi tape. Where the ends of the tape and twine were, I created a little stamped circle using circle punches and the Raisin Boat Nailed It! stamp set. For the tag, I used a Lemon Chunky Tag-It, stamped more tool stamps in black ink and highlighted them with white gel pen. I stamped a sentiment from the APB Choose Happy stamp set in black onto white paper and made a little banner on the tag with it. At the top of the tag, I finished it off with more Lemon Midnight Trendy Twine and attached it to the treat bag with a Mini Wooden Clothespin. Now it is ready to give! It fits a gift card and candy perfectly.

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Spring Tin Tie Bag

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here today with a springy treat bag. It features Posy Trendy Twine.

I started by filling a Kraft Tin Tie Bag and added a banner of patterned paper. The tag is a Posy Tag-It with a Kraft Brown Trendy Page Dot and a sentiment from the Friendship stamp set stamped in black ink. Once the top was shut, I wrapped Posy Trendy Twine around it three times, strung the tag on it, then tied it in a bow.

To decorate the lower portion of the bag, I added a Pink Floral Plank Pattern Heart Seal and Cotton Candy Sequins. I love the country chic feel this treat bag has!

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~North Pole Treat Bag

Hello all! Beth From Beth's Beauties here today with another Christmas in July post. This time I went with a rustic Christmas vibe for a treat bag. Holly Berry Trendy Twine is the perfect color combo for that look!

I started with a Kraft Chevron Treat Bag and stamped a sentiment from the APB Merry & Bright stamp set in SB.com Cardinal Red ink. I then added treats to the bag, but you can also fill these bags with cookies, candy, nail polish, a matchbox car, a toy blind bag, small cosmetics, gift card, etc. The possiblities for this kind of gift wrapping are endless! Once I folded the flap over, I wrapped Holly Berry Trendy Twine around it and tied it in a bow. I then added a North Pole Trading Company No. 2 Retro Tag that I had inked with brown around the edges to make it more vintage looking (The North Pole Trading Company Vintage Inspired Tag would have also been a great pick for this project!) I finished it off with a few O Christmas Tree sequins adhered with mini Glue Dots. 

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

Holly Berry Trendy Twine

Kraft Chevron Treat Bag

North Pole Trading Company No. 2 Retro Tag

APB Merry & Bright stamp set

O Christmas Tree sequins

You can find all kinds of Christmas themed Trendy Twine samplers on sale this month, including the Christmas Sampler, which includes the Holly Berry twist that I used on today's project.

Trendy Bakers Twine~Quick Christmas Treats

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here today with some quick Christmas treats. I know you have seen me use several Retro Tags and Vintage Inspired Tags from Annie's Paper Boutique lately, and that is because they are the perfect solution for making handmade projects in a snap.
These treats were created with Medium Candy Bags...yes, the ones that fit 7 Hershey's Nuggets in PERFECTLY! Who doesn't need a little chocolate treat in their lives?! I wrapped every other Nugget with patterned paper from The Paper Studio's Old World Winter paper pad. It had a vintage feel, just like the pre-printed tags. 1"x3" is the perfect size of paper to wrap Nuggets with. I prefer to use Glue Dots to adhere the paper to the wrapper. Once the bag was filled with candy, I used 2 strands of Candy Cane Trendy Twine and one strand of Holly Berry Trendy Twine to wrap around the length of the bag. Once the tag was slipped over the twine, I tied a bow with it. To prepare the tags, I added a Candy Cane Trendy Page Dot in a corner, punched a hole in the center, then adhered a stamped sentiment from the APB Let It Snow stamp set. For the first treat, I used the Deer & Friends Retro Tag.

For this treat, I used the North Pole Trading Company Vintage Inspired Tag. I did not add a stamped sentiment due to the large amount of writing already on it. 

The sweet It's Christmas Retro Tag was used on my third treat.

For the finat treat, I used the Jolly Snowman Retro Tag. Now I have a collection of Christmas goodies ready to gift!

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

Candy Cane Trendy Twine

Holly Berry Trendy Twine

Medium Candy Bags

APB Let It Snow stamp set

Candy Cane Trendy Page Dot

Deer & Friends Retro Tag

North Pole Trading Company Vintage Inspired Tag

Tag Tuesday~Christmas Treat Bag

Hello all! Beth from Beth's Beauties here, back with another Tag Tuesday project. I know Christmas is months away yet, but I am one that loves to plan ahead so I have time to make something personalized instead of waiting until the last minute, overwhelmed. The shining star of today's project is a darling Christmas Visitors Retro Tag.

This project was very simple! I grabbed a Mini Kraft Paper Bag, stamped on it with a stamp from the Merry & Bright stamp set and VersaFine Clair ink. In the future, I will use dye ink, not pigment on the kraft bags because the oils in the pigment ink created a slight shadow effect around the sentiment. After turning the top flap over, I simply adhered the top of the Christmas Visitors Retro Tag and two banners made from scrap pieces of patterned paper. I then tied a double bow of Holly Berry Trendy Twine to a Mini Wooden Clothespin to hold the bag shut. Now it is ready to fill with Christmas treats, a small gift, or a gift card! Simple, yet cute!

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

Mini Kraft Paper Bag

Christmas Visitors Retro Tag

Holly Berry Trendy Twine

Merry & Bright stamp set

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Firecracker Bag

Hello all!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here.  This month we are sharing patriotic projects.  It is always fun to use the patriotic twines of Berries Jubilee Trendy Twine and Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine!  Today I am sharing a "firecracker" treat bag.

I started by adhering strips of scrap papers from the BoBunny Celebrating Freedom paper pad to the Kraft Tin Tie Bag.  I thought the stars and stripes paper looked like a firecracker, so I ran with that idea.  To create the wick of the firecracker, I took 3 long strands of  Berries Jubilee Trendy Twine, taped the center of the strands to the table, then proceeded to braid it using 2 strands together.  Bearly Art glue adhered it well to the bag.

I thought the front looked a little empty, so I added a sentiment strip.  The stars stamps are from the APB Merry Christmas stamp set and were stamped with Scrapbook.com Cardinal hybrid ink.  The USA stamp is from a retired Raisin Boat stamp set and was stamped in SB.com Postal Blue hybrid ink.  Once that was glued to the bag, I added sequins from both the Blue Berry sequin mix and Jolly Shaker Medley.  I love using products for something other than their intended purpose, so I was happy to use two Christmas items on this project!

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

Berries Jubilee Trendy Twine

Kraft Tin Tie Bag

APB Merry Christmas stamp set

Blue Berry sequins

Jolly Shaker Medley

These patriotic samplers are a wonderful way to get several colors of Trendy Twine and are on sale this month!  Each color is ten yards in length and is wound on a wooden clothespin for easy use and storage.

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!
