I Scream, You Scream, we all Scream for Ice Cream


Where is this summer going?  I can't believe that it is August first and my baby is going to college in 15 days.  I had a lot of fun making this ice cream cone for my project.  The Kraft Trendy Twine can be used for so many things given it's neutral color.  I absolutely love the mix of colors in these twines and can't wait to get my new colors.  You have been to the store to place your pre-order, right?  What are you waiting for, they are gorgeous.  Visit my blog for more details. 

You can find the Kraft Twine here.


You can find the Strawberry Cupcake Twine here.

Be sure to visit the blog often to see what my fellow DT and Guest DT members are up to.

Rockets Red Glare

Hello, hello!  Design Team member Becki here with a cute little project that I wasn't sure would work out too well - stand alone twine stars.  I know Fourth of July has come and gone this year but I couldn't get the Star Spangled Banner out of my head (probably because it's one of the only songs I can play on the piano).  With that song came the idea of a rocket ship with stars trailing behind it.  But since the Fourth is over, what would I use it for?  Along came my 2 year old nephew who is obsessed with Buzz Lightyear.  Buzz has to use a ship to go from planet to planet right?  Why not make a rocket ship mobile to hang in his room?


Different, huh?  I thought this month's Trendy Twine color Berry was perfect but couldn't help use some Blue Berry besides to match my rocket ship.  Guess I just can't get the good ol' red, white and blue colors out of my head.

I already know Logan likes it because he kept trying to grab it and repeating "Buzz" over and over.  This mobile is really going to look cool hanging in his Toy Story room.  The stars are super easy to make.  Just visit my blog, The Happy Card Encouragement Factory, for details on how to make the stars.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Berrylicious Trendy Twine Projects





Hi Everyone:
Here is my second Trendy Twine DT project this month using Berry Trendy Twine. I had such fun making all these lucious berry items with this wonderful twine. I made the card first and then went from there. I had fun with the strawberry and am sure that my father-in-law will enjoy the cherry strawberry preserves that are in this jar which I made for his birthday.  Stop by my blog for more details.

 Be sure to also check back often at the blog for some wonderful Trendy Twine inspiration. Hugs,

Simple, but 'Trendy" use of Twine

Hello, Trendy Twiners! Thanks for stopping by today! Sometimes as I am creating a card/project, I stare at what I think is the final product. I stare at it thinking there is something missing. My favorite go-to product is of course TWINE! There are so many things that you can do with twine, from a simple bow to creating a detailed twine embellishment. On my card today, I thought a simple twine bow would do the trick!
Here is my card creation:
A close up of the simple, but perfect twine bow using Berry Red:

Thanks again for stopping by today! Don't forget to participate in our Monthly Twine Challenge! Get the details HERE!

Give me a T, give me a R, give me a ENDY....

What do you have? TRENDY, TRENDY, TRENDY TWINE!!!!! (insert cartwheels & flips here)

Hi Everyone! Candi here to share a fun shaped card with you today, featuring the lovely Berry Trendy Twine (which just happens to be on sale, hint hint).

One of our favorite things to do over at Trendy Twine is to show you fun & creative uses of twine, not only can it add the perfect simple touch with a few strands or a bow, but you can also use it as a main component in your creations!



I decided to make an encouragement card to send a friend who is considering going back to school. Since I'm going to be mailing this I opted to make my pom poms a little less full so they will still fit into an envelope easily. Feel free to visit my blog if you'd like some details.

Remember to enter the Trendy Twine Challenge for this month, you could win the extreme mini pack (which is 10 regular colors of Trendy Twine and 20 yds of Berry Trendy Twine!!!)

Thanks for looking!

Trendy Tuesday- Twine Ring with Box

Hey Everyone!

It's Jamie here to share a sweet project with you! We're featuring Berry Trendy Twine this month and I made a ring and matching box.


I knit an i-cord and then wrapped it on a glue dot to make the top of the ring. Then I hot glued the top onto a ring.


I finished the box off with a big Berry Twine bow and button. Visit my blog HERE for details on my project.

You can get our Featured Berry Trendy Twine on sale right now HERE.
