Happy Birthday to You!

Good Morning Trendy Twiners!!!!

Jessica here from Chick-n-Scrap and I am so excited to be sharing a project with you all!

Today is a very special day for me.

It is my son's 11th birthday and since we are CELEBRATING all month with Trendy Twine and showcasing the AWESOME

CELEBRATION Trendy Twine, I have a birthday card to share that I made for him.

It is always fun to CELEBRATE a birthday and when I was growing up birthday parties were always associated with a fun clown, doing their balloon art, putting on a comedy show and bringing tons of entertainment to a party.

So for my card I used designer paper from Queen & Co that is a PERFECT match to the Celebration Trendy Twine. That adorable clown image is from Peachy Keen Stamps and I colored him using my copic markers. Then for a little extra, I added some Christmas/X-Mas Red Stickles to his nose, tie and shoes.

You have to have some balloons for a birthday card! And I have the perfect embellishment to add to them, some of the Celebration Trendy Twine.

I tied a piece of the Celebration Trendy Twine around each of the balloons and then let them hang down below the clown.

Now since we are Celebrating all month, the Celebration Trendy Twine is on SALE for $7.95/spool! What a GREAT deal!!!

Don't want a full spool? Check out June's Celebration Mini Set!

Shine Bright

Hello everyone! I'm Helen from HTB Creations. I made a quick and simple card to show you today using the fabulous Celebration Trendy Twine.

I have been trying to make quicker, easier cards without a ton of layers on them. I'm really not used to it though. Originally, I had a black layer under the red, but that made the card too dark. So I took it off and did like the way this turned out.

I used some fun star dies and this great stamp--both from My Creative Time. The Celebration Twine is just wrapped around the card and tied off in the bow. I pop dotted the stars on and finished it off with some Doodlebug black sequins to pull the black in a bit more from the twine.

We're taking a break from the challenge right now, but you can see more inspiration right here on the blog all month long and also on Facebook at the Twine It Up! Group page.

Don't forget the special this month on the Celebration Twine spool and Celebration Mini Set!

Have a great day!

Planner Friday

Hello! I am Amanda and I write a blog called She's Eclectic. I'm very proud to be joining the Annie's Paper Boutique team and I will be posting on the first Friday of the month about planning and getting organised.

I have been a stationery addict for as long as I can remember. When I started using a Filofax at the beginning of last year I found my passion was reignited as I discovered new ways to get and stay organised. I also met some lovely people who enjoyed decorating their planner pages and they inspired me to have a go myself. I don't think I would have stuck with using my Filofax for the past 18 months if it hadn't been for getting creative with my diary pages.

In today's post I will be showing you some of my favourite products from Annie's Paper Boutique that I use in my planner.

Trendy Page Dots and At Home Planner Stamps in action.

I use my diary to keep track of various appointments and events, to do lists and my blog statistics. Decorating the pages doesn't take very long and I enjoy doing it. I start with adding washi tape to the top and bottom of my pages and the Trendy Page Dot reinforcements. I like to write an inspirational quote in the notes section, something to keep me positive or make me smile when I check my planner.

After that I fill in my daily to do lists and reminders using the planner stamps and then write in anything else I need. I will stick a couple of stickers onto the pages but I make sure to leave myself plenty of space so I can doodle or add more notes as the week goes on.

I like to use cute paper clips, like this Love My Cup Of Joe one, and the To Do Tags in my planner. I punch holes into the tags so I can add them onto the rings of my Filofax. I usually use these tags to list the things I need to do at some point during the week, things that don't need to be done on specific day.

Perfectly straight.

I also find them handy for when I use the planner stamps. I line up my stamping block on top of the tag and then I have a perfectly straight line to follow when I put the stamps onto the block. I am a bit of a neat freak and like things to be "just so". I don't like crooked stamps!

Weekly to do list added to my rings

I continue to fill in my pages during the week and tick off the things I complete. The photo above was taken on Wednesday, so half way through the week and the one below is from today.

My nearly completed week

If you fancy prettying up your planner pages stop by the store and take a look at all the goodies available!

See you next month.

Happy Birthday Card

Hello, this is Sukie and this month we are showcasing the Celebration twine. This cute bakers twine is a unique twist of red, yellow, black and white, such a fun and festive color combination. My project was inspired by the fun new challenge we have going on this month. For my project, I created a gift set for one of my coworkers birthdays.

The adorable candy tube is from Annie's Paper Boutique and is perfect for some yummy treats. For my card, I used the twine to outline the center balloon on my card. I also used it for the balloon strings and added a bow. A bit of twine was also used on the small tag on the candy tube. My card was finished off with some scattered sequins and a sentiment from the Craftin Desert Diva's Happy Celebrations stamp set.

Remember to check out the store for lots of crafty goodies including some new twine colors! Also, Trendy Twine has a DT call going on, all of the details are here.
