Hello!

 I am back with another Christmas project on the Trendy Twine's blog today.

Christmas is just a week away and I know some of us are wrapping up some last minute Christmas presents. Well, I did mine with a little help from this month's Color of the Month twine: Peppermint Stick!

Here's a peek of how my Christmas presents look like this year! I chose these purple/blue/white wrapping papers from Typo and did my best to make them look presentable. Psssttt, I'm not the best "wrapper" in town :)

Then to hold everything together, I tied all my presents up using the Peppermint Stick twine. Don't you think it just adds to the wrapping? I love that it's not bulky as well, just gives a light fine touch.

I also made some Christmas gift tags out of kraft paper. I stenciled some patterns using Nuvo Glimmer Paste and Glitterific paints. Then I added snowflakes using my Gelly Roll white pen. I grabbed some brush markers I had and wrote "Merry Christmas". Then, just use the same twine to tie the tag with some bunny ears and it's done!

Here is the beautiful twine I used for today's card:

Hello! 

I am up over at the SVG Attic blog, sharing with you a gift bag I made using JGW Cottontail Bunny kit.

This kit is fabulous for Easter, but you can also use it for other occasions. Here, I made a birthday gift bag to my favorite chick :)

I cut the bag using some fancy patterned paper then tied it up using some Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine.

I then added the chick with a doily behind and the sentiment from Unity Stamp "Hey Birthday Chick", with some Nuvo crystal drops in bright gold.

I also added some rainbow foil from Thermoweb to the egg! Coz, why not right? :)

For my first card, I am using the brand new Journee Girl by Angie Blom. I am painting her in using my new Prima watercolors in Pastel Dreams. The watercolors are creamy and so pretty!

For my next card, I am inspired by a Wedding Dress!

I am using the "Special Wishes" December 2016 Sentiment Kit roses, and colored it with my Copic markers. For the bottom of my card, I filled it up with my Nuvo Crystal Drops -- just like some wedding dresses with sequins, beads, crystals at the bottom of the dress :)

For the stitching, I am using Kat Scrappiness Double Stitched Oval dies.

For my next card, I am using the New Magic stamp and filling up the whole card with Ken Oliver's color burst in bright assorted! This is the first time I am using this product and it is really magical! The colors are so pretty and just so easy to blend.

And for my final card, I have colored Brystl Girl with my Copic markers, then added the loopy twine using Trendy Twine's Chocolate Truffle twine. Just add a little multi-medium matte adhesive and wa-laaaa! :)

Happy Monday :)

It's Inspiration Time over at The Cutting Cafe Blog and the Design Team is working on Gable Boxes this week.

Seriously, this box is like SO SO cool! 

1. It is so easy to make them

2. It looks pretty and make your gifts look prettier

3. You don't have to spend a ton of money buying boxes

4. You can decorate them however you want

5. You get to impress your relatives and friends (haha!)

So, here is my holiday version for my Gable Box. I used all DCWV papers here and even die cut those cute little Christmas trees to decorate the front of the box. I also added some Trendy Twine for the pretty bow.

Imagine the possibilities of just having fun and making customized boxes for your loved ones! 

Do check out the rest of the Design Team inspirations on The Cutting Cafe Blog.

Have a great week ahead :)

It's Christmas in AUGUST! :)

The Cutting Cafe Design Team is creating all Christmasy projects on the blog and I decided to make a card with the printables.

The printables are already colored except for Mikala Ann -- which I colored her in with Copics and added some Stickles glitter. For the Merry Christmas sentiment, I colored it in using the Sakura Gelly Glaze and tied it with some Trendy Twine - Holly Berry.

Here are the supplies used:

Christmas Mini Colored Set

Christmas Elisha Jean and Friends

December Christmas Daily

Now, here's my FRENZY of Unity cards I made. All SEVEN of them! :)

For my first card, I am using Woodland Bunny set, which I stamped and colored with my Copic markers. Then I added a doily behind the stamp to make it more dainty and finishing it up with some Trendy Twine "Chocolate truffle".

***

This new More like a Sister stamp has got to be one of my favorites!! So super sweet, don't you think?

I used the Thermoweb DecoFoil adhesive pen to draw some hearts on my background. Then I grabbed some foil (any foil would work!) and simply started foiling! What's great about this pen is, no machines are needed for this technique. :) 

***

For my next card, I wanted to create a CAS look. I stamped the Woodland Deer and colored him in with my Copic markers. I then added the glass glitter border with Prima's Art Ingredient Glass Glitter in Copper. A great way to create a focal point on your card and making it pretty :)

***

Here's another woodland creature -- the Woodland Fox stamp which I have colored him in with my Copic markers again. Then I created a simple background using 3 different washi tapes, placing them randomly. The trick here is, choose colors that compliment each other :) PLUS, it is a great way to use up your washi tapes... Pssssstttt. I have tons of them!!!

***

Psssstt, have you seen this Love one Another stamp? It's FREE this weekend if you spend $30 and above. Plus, Unity will be donating every $1 if you buy this stamp :)

I stamped the image on some cardstock and die cut it with my circle die to create the globe. I then used Kuretake Gansai Tambi's watercolors to paint the globe in. For a more realistic globe, you can google some globe photos and use that as a reference :)

***

Next, I created a window panel card using the Succulent Salutations {June 2016 Sentiment kit}. I do not have any window dies so I created a faux look using just squares of papers ;) I colored the images in with Copic markers.

***

And for my FINAL card... (phew that was a longggggg scroll through!)

 I love this terrarium image from the Beautiful One {June 2016 Kit of the Month}, which I have colored it in with my Copic markers. To create the Glossy 3D effect, I filled the entire image up with Ranger's Glossy accents!

(note: it was quite difficult to capture the effect on camera)

THANK YOU for stopping by and for going through all my videos and cards :)

Have a WONDERFUL weekend.

God bless you.

Happy May! 

Can you believe that almost half a year has just gone by? *phew*

I'm up on the SVG Attic blog and I'm here to share a baby mini album I made for my friend, Michelle, who is pregnant with twins. Yup, twins! :)

And with the album, I made this pretty box to gift it to her too.

I used the pie box from Holly's Holiday Gift Boxes. I love this box because you can see through it and it's a nice size for the album. 

To decorate the box, I took the pieces from the mobile centerpiece (Baby Boy & Baby Girl kit) and glittered them up before I strung them with some twine.

For the sides of the box, I used this cute critters washi tape :)

And here's the baby album I made -- which is 6"x6" in size.

I used lots of papers from Crate Paper, Kaisercraft, Pebbles, Elle's Studio, Simple Stories, Fancy Pants and Heidi Swapp.

Here's a sneak into the pages inside!

I also made a simple tag-card with some Sweet Stamp Shop boy/girl stamps :)

Thanks for stopping by :)

Have a wonderful week ahead.

Happy mid-week!

I have a post over at the SVG Attic blog and I want to share with you my Easter Bunny project I made using the JGW Happy Easter kit.

I made the bunny box and he's holding a few carrots! :)

I used the carrots from the bunny box and also the large Happy Easter basket, and tied them with some Limeade Trendy Twine.

Wishing all of you a Happy & Blessed Easter.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

The first card I made is using Phyllis Harris BEAUTIFUL stamp called "Path less traveled"

I stamped her onto some watercolor cardstock and then colored her in with Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real brush pens. This would be a great medium to use if you prefer a more controlled kinda painting with some fun and vibrant colors.

For my next card, this is a new Angie Girl "Quin Girl" which is FREE with any $50/purchase this week.

I did some simple distress watercolor -- just highlighting the flowers and leaves in her hair. Just paint with some Tim Holtz distress markers and add water! Yupsss... As easy as that :)

And for my final card, I am using the NEW Sentiment Kit "Sometimes I wonder".

I painted the bouquets in with some Peerless watercolors. I love how intense the colors are with these babies!!

SO ... NOW onto the SALES!!

It's your LUCKY day coz lots of stamps are on SALE. 

So hurry on, go SHOP NOW at Unity Stamp.

Have an awesome weekend! :)
