Merry Christmas Birdies

Karen N here from Craftily Yours with my last post as a Timeless Twine-ista!  It's been a beautiful, inspirational two years!  I have loved working with the owner, Stacey, and the design team lead, Deb, SO much.  These two fine beautiful souls have enriched my life, and I took forward to a forever-friendship with them.  I also have loved working with my DT sisters over the last couple years.

Today, just a couple days before Christmas, I am sharing two FuN cards with you just to show you how much fun a little Timeless Twine adds to your projects.  Check it out!

Both of these cards use Timeless Twine in Cherry Red and fun Silver Star Sequins from Bella Creationz.  The paper is from Heartfelt Creations Sparkling Poinsettia, and the stamps are from the Tim Holtz Bird Crazy line.

Thank you ALL for your sweet comments over the last couple years.  I wish all of you the merriest of Christmases ever.

Craftily yours,

Karen

47 Has Never Looked So Good

Good morning!  Amber from Best Stamped Intentions with you here today. :)

 

On Tuesday, we celebrated my handsome husband's birthday early since he has to work on his actual birthday.  47 has seriously never looked so good. :)

 

The Timeless Twine by Bella Creationz theme this month is "Birthday" so what a perfect opportunity to use their awesome products to make a fun pocket layout.

 

 

 

I used Aqua Blue and Raspberry Pink (which all rolls are on sale for $8!!!!) for the swirls on the title card.  The cute little silver stars sequins are coming soon, but there's many other styles available in their shop! And, my go-to journaling card, Days of the Week.

Shoot for the Moon

Happy Hump-Day, Friends.  Karen N here from Craftily Yours!

This month, we are focusing of the fun and fabulous Timeless Twine in Cape Cod.  This fun twine has grey, yellow and white, and I was thinking stars and moons, so here's what I did!

I created the moon by punching a circle and then punching it again half-way through.  I glued twine down and trimmed the edges.  Those fun sequins are Bella Creationz, Silver Star Sequins.  On top of the glitter paper on top, I also colored the hanging stars and moons with my Wink of Stella pens.  Sparkles!

Hope you have a super sparkly Wednesday!  Thanks for stopping by!

Craftily yours,

Karen

Tag It Tuesday - 2nd Place is SWEET!

Hi friends!!

 

Amber with Best Stamped Intentions back again this fine Tuesday with a "Tag It Tuesday" post for Timeless Twine.

 

My little 4-year old daughter just competed in her first dance competition, dancing a solo.  I had a fun idea for this spread to use a brown bag as the tag holder.

 

Here's the full spread:

 

(click image for larger view!)

 

And, here's the cute tag pocket I made.

 

 

I trimmed down the bag to the 3x4 size.  Before I stapled the front and back back together, I used Raspberry Pink Timeless Twine to stitch the cute little heart on the bag.  I then cut the picture down (I think it's like 2.5x3) to fit.  Cut some pieces of the raspberry twine, and stapled them to the back of the picture for easy-peasy removal of the tag any time I want to see her happy little face. :)

 

Here's close ups of left and right side:

 

I also used these super fun Days of the Week journaling cards, as well as a few Silver Star Sequins and stamps from the Oh, Snap! stamp set to compete the finishing touches.

 

Now, I want to see YOU incorporate tags into you PL albums!  As you can see, it's EASY and oh so CUTE!!

 

Enjoy your day!!

xoxo, Amber

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!
