Merry Christmas

Karen N here from from Craftily Yours!  I love Christmas and love creating for Christmas.  Today's card is just that - a Christmas card!

I am making this card with my crafter group at work.  Just enough fun sparkly fun.  I used the beautiful Timeless Twine in I decided to create a Christmas card using FuN ornaments and Timeless Twine in Aqua Blue.

That FUN sentiment is from the NEW Bella Creations Holiday Sentiment Stamps.  I used some pretty Bella Creationz Sequins available soon in the Bella Creationz Store.  The paper is some patterned paper I purchased from the open rack at Michaels - as is the glitter paper.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Have you "liked" Timeless Twine on Facebook yet?  You should, so you stay up on all the lovely twine-tastic goodness....

Craftily yours,

Karen

Minion of Fun

Today I decided I need to make something just fun. My granddaughters birthday is coming up and we booked a beach house in Gulf shores and they are all coming and meeting us there. It happens to be during her birthday so she really thinks she is special and that the trip is all for her!

I thought a fun little card for her birthday that is also summer related would be cute. I used a minion file from SVGcuttingfiles to accomplish that!

We had a photo to use as inspiration which I will show below so going off all those bold colors I thought this would capture several of them. I used "Simply Black" twine to create some hair. I just pulled the twine apart to give it a string like texture. It was great because it also created a curvy wave to the hair from it being braided together before.

The sentiment is from the "Hello Summer" stamp set that Bella Creationz has. Its perfect for this card with the playful minion.

I used some glossy accents on the eyes to give it some dimension and interest and I also used wink of stella all over the bathing suit top and skirt. I love that stuff. Can't capture it great in a photo but it looks great in person.

I tied a knot in the Aqua and Pumpkin orange and let it flow and adhered each piece using scotch quick dry. I use a special bottle and a fine tip for all my paper piecing and its great for putting down twine like this.

Used a little foam to pup it all off the card. Products will be shown and links are all above!

PHOTO INSPIRATION

Your Smile

Hi friends! It's me Pad.
Time flies so fast and it's already July now. My scrapbook project for this early July is make a single page (12"x12") using only 1 photo, decorate it with lot of pretty twines from Timeless Twines and tapes. I used Hello Summer Stamp from Bella Creationz too. Another supplies are from October Afternoon, Echo Park, AC and Elle's Studio. And you can see the result below :

I played so much fun using twines and tapes, try to combining them both on the page and make a playful statement with adding mini triangle flag papers on the twines.

Here's my supplies from Timeless Twine / Bella Creationz :

planNERD Sunday!

Ashley here from Marine Wife's Scrappin' Life with the first planNERD Sunday of February!  If you use a daily or monthly planner and you're looking for some stamp sets to help decorate your planner, Bella Creationz has some WONDERFUL ones!  I've never decorated my planner before, so this will be a work in progress.

I use a Daytimer planner with monthly and daily pages:

As you can see, the inside pages of the planner are rather plain.  Thought I would dress them up a little!

I really love the pictures and quotes on the monthly divider pages, but I thought they were a little plain.  I spruced up February's page by outlining the large flower with Raspberry Pink Timeless Twine and adding a few Sparkly Clear sequins from Bella Creationz.

I also added some Aqua Blue and Purple Passion Timeless Twine to the monthly calendar page and used the planNERD and planNERD 2 stamp sets from Bella Creationz to quickly put in some deadlines for the month so I could see things at a glance.

I also used Metallic Silver Stars sequins from Bella Creationz to mark off the projects that I'd completed.  My daily pages are still a work in progress, but here's my page from yesterday:

Just a few simple stamps from the planNERD and planNERD 2 sets makes a world of difference!  I really like the "Hydrate" stamp with the glasses at the bottom, as I'm planning to start keeping up with my water intake, but I'm going to have to find an ink color that's a little darker.

I LOVE the "Project" stamp!  It reminds me of all the places I need to make sure my projects get to once they're finished and published on my blog.

Supplies Used

I'm really looking forward to doing some more embellishing in my planner.  I never knew decorating a planner could be so much fun!  I hope you all have a great week!  Happy scrapping!

Pocket Scrapbook - Snow Spread w/Stitched Pocket by Amber

Hi!  

Amber here from Best Stamped Intentions with another fun post from Timeless Twine/Bella Creationz.

Doesn't the beginning of a new year always feel fresh?  

Like that new car smell or laundry right out of the dryer.  

In my case, the new car smell is opening a new roll of twine or a new package of PL cards.  

I'm simple...what can I say? :)

I've been thinking about how I was going to continue on with my Pocket Scrapbooking recently.  For 2013 and 2014 I've done weekly, and I've been pretty good at keeping up with it.  However, I'm noticing now that Neysa is in pre-school and dance classes, I don't have too much interesting stuff to fill a weekly spread with!!  I've also got a school album (sort of - everything's pulled together and ready to throw in the book!!) started for her, too.

With all that being said, I've decided to take a monthly approach for 2015.

Since January started off with snow here in Utah, I thought it was only fitting to start my 2015 album with a snow spread.  

(This page will also serve as the "first" page of my album.)

Remember this??  Well, I wanted to do something like that, only right into my spread instead of doing a separate insert for it.

I filled the pocket with hearts (you'll see that I use hearts on almost everything!!) and sequins (Sparkly Clear for the snowflakes, Raspberry-Pink mix, and graphite gray), and stitched it together with Aqua Blue twine.  I think it turned out quite adorable. :)

In addition to hearts, I'm also a pink addict.  I {love} pink.  

I'm sure having a little girl helps feed this addiction!  

I loved this turquoise card from Elle's Studio, but it needed a little pop to it.  Add Raspberry-Pink twine, wrapped several times around the card, and ta-da!  Texture and pop added.

Well, that's the end of my starting point of 2015.  

Until next time, friends!!

Happy Treat Bag

Hello, and happy Monday!  Julie here today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers.  We're having a little light snow here today, so the project I'm sharing here seems the perfect fit. 

My husband takes his lunch to work everyday.  I like to make little surprises for him and tuck them in his lunch bag.  This is one of those surprises:

I found this Snowflake Short Envelope Bag at the Silhouette Design store.  I used Aqua Blue Twine, Cherry Red Twine, Clearly Beloved Sequins, and Clearly Beautiful Loose Mixed Sequins on this bag.

Tucked inside the Snowflake envelope is a Bella Creationz Kraft Tag.  

I covered a portion of it with designer paper, then used the "NEW" Bella Creationz Happy Days Clear Stamp Set (year round sentiments).

Supplies used on tag:

I had so much fun making my happy snowflake treat bag.  I hope it makes my husband's day brighter!
