Trendy Bakers Twine~Back To School

Hello all! I am on the Trendy Twine blog 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 today 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 Bag

Hello all! I am sharing a project for the Trendy Twine blog 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!

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Sunshine Card

Hello all! I am sharing a project for the Trendy Twine blog that features Orangesicle Trendy Twine. It is a card that really portrays lots of summer sunshine!

All the patterned papers and sentiment panel were from Echo Park's My Favorite Summer 6x6" paper pad. The sun was die cut with the Pink & Main Card Cut Essentials Dies Set 2 once I glued it in the corner of the card, I cut lengths of Orangesicle Trendy Twine for sun rays and adhered them with Bearly Art precision glue. The sentiment panel was popped up with foam tape. I thought the area to the left of the sentiment looked a little empty, so I added a bit of Orange Chevron Ribbon there. A trio of Autumn Sequins added a bit of sparkle to finish off the card.

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

Autumn Sequins

You can also find Orangesicle in the Orange Sampler and in the Original Sampler. Each

color is ten yards in length and comes on a wooden clothespin for easy use and storage.

Trendy Bakers Twine~Amazing Tool Treat Bag

Hello all! I am back with a new project for the Trendy Twine blog 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:

The Lemon Midnight Sampler is perfect if you don't need a full spool. Each color is ten yards in length and comes on a wooden clothespin for easy use and storage.
