Hap'bee' Birthday with Timeless Twine

Ashley here, with some Thursday inspiration for you from Timeless Twine!


I really like the play on words from this sentiment, and I was lucky enough to find some yellow and black honeycomb paper in my stash.  The Lemonade Yellow and Tuxedo Black Timeless Twine colors worked perfectly to add that last little something!

Mini Layout

Karen N here from Craftily Yours.  I'm in the process of making a frame that will hold mini-layouts, but I needed one lay-out first to make sure that it is going to work.  Here's what I created:


I used Heartfelt Creations Classic Sunflower paper, and the Timeless Twine in Natural White was perfect for the paper.  Also perfect are the GORGEOUS sequins to embellish my little lay-out.  They will be available SOON at Bella Creationz!  The picture is a from CHA this year.  I was lucky enough to go and to bring along my mom.  Some of her friends were there, and we all had a blast together!

Craftily yours,

Karen

Dance like no-one is watching!

Hey there crafty friends!  It's Jenni again from Wish I Was Scrappin!

My daughter's dance team is gearing up for competition season.  They have a program they do that allows family and friends to write letters or notes of encouragement for them.  They keep them in giant pink envelopes until the week before competition when they are distributed.  I thought these would brighten up any young dancer's day!  Maybe even encourage them just that little bit more! I made about 15 of these for her team members and friends!


Supplies used are Pink bazzill (not sure of exact color), swiss dot embossing folder.  Patterned paper is from Carta Bella Paris Girl.  Ballerina was cut using Slice Music & Dance cart and the scalloped edge was cut using a Martha Stewart Punch.  Bubble gum pink Timeless Twine and Metallic Poppin Pink sequins all from Bella Creationz and Timeless Twine rounds out the mix!!

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!

Planner Sunday March Calendar

Hi everyone, Maria here from Maria Lina's Creative Designs. Every Sunday there will be a post from me and some of the DT girls for some creative planner ideas. Bella Creationz has really awesome stamp sets for your planner, planNERD, planNERD 2 and Plan to be Fit. I have used a planner for many years, can't imagine trying to function without one, but I have never embellished or decorated it and I must say I really love how the stamps help keep your pages neat. I will making a post on here, my blog and on YouTube for my planner every 6 weeks, so be sure to tune in.

I decided I would start with the monthly calendar for March, this way when I come back in 6 weeks, I can show you what I have embellished and planned for the weeks in that month. Be sure to stop by my blog and check out the YouTube video which will show all of the supplies that were used .

Treat Banner


Hi Everybody!
Jenny from Crazy About Cricut here, and I am ridiculously excited to be doing my first post with the 2015 Creative Crew!!  This year we'll be showing you some super cool things you can do with all of the awesome, yummy products you can get from Bella Creationz & Timeless Twine.

Now for today's project!  We've always celebrated all the holidays in my family, and Valentine's Day is no different.  I love to give my kids a little treat that day to remind them how much I love them (in case they overlook the daily hugs and kisses, lol!).  I decided that this year, I'd create a little treat banner for them.  Add some fun gift cards, and candies and this treat banner is done!


*I have 4 kids, so I created a bag for each one.


*Doilies are always awesome, and they were 
perfect when paired with these cute little Small Brown Kraft Bags!
*I used the "love" sentiment from the Oh Snap stamp set to accent the center of the doily.


*Another fun way to use sequins is to string some beautiful twine through it!
(Probably easiest with the larger sequins!)
*For another fun look, I used mini glue dots to adhere 
some of the Sparkly Clear Sequins onto some mini clothes pins.


Here are the supplies I used:





I hope you enjoyed my project!  Make sure to check back daily for more inspiration from the design team.  TFL, and hope everyone has a chance to craft today :)

So excited to share my 1st DT post.... amazing products



Welcome today to my first Bella Creationz Timeless Twine blog post.
Super excited to share projects using this amazing product line.
Timeless Twine is the #1 product line but OMG there are some super 
fun additional products available in the store also.




What a great clear stamp line... and this is only a few of them.


Today I am sharing journal pages that I put together and gave to my eldest 
Grand Daughter for part of her Christmas gift. She is now away from home on her own at University and I thought it would be a perfect time to share with her some super quotes to get her through some days  when things are not so perfect and she was feeling alone... so she knows we are with her at all times in our thoughts and prayers along her journey to adulthood.


Braid your tie and have it ready to size to your project.


I tied the end of the twine when the length was established.




I used my new stamp set on this page and also glued another accent piece of twine to it.

*****************************************************************


I twine accented the banner, covered the cardboard heart frame and wrapped and tied a bow
to the lower edges of page.  




In this close up you can see the embossed section and the addition of washi tape.

*************************************************************

This super cute page is highlighted by a twine made butterfly.
Wrap twine around about 2 fingers and then tie the centre leaving the feeler pieces and then
add a twine flight path.
I added a twine bow to adhere the metal key and also hand stitched the base border.

**************************************************************

On this double page piece I used twine and the fun stamp set.


On this side I wrapped multiple times and tied at the centre to pull it in.
In this thinned out section I glued the accent.
This page has Creative Embellishments and a We R Memory ink roller stitching.


On this side a added the blanket stitch edging. See below.


Start by taping to the backside the twine end. Pulling end to the right and holding with your thumb..take the needle below and up through the paper as per above. Pull tight and repeat again all the way across the page.

********************************************************************

On this fun double I used twine accents and added some sequin accents.


On this side I hand stitched the shape of a frame to add the quote.
On the lower section there are fun sequins, a stamped butterfly, stamped title 
 and some dew drop flowers.






On the left side I added a double row of twine to form a border accent.

****************************************************************


On this page I formed a sunray of twine.. cascading from the verse.

******************************************************************

This page is accented with wrapped twine and a button accent on the top.
In the lower punched section I weaved twine and tied a knot in each centre section.

***********************************************************

This page boasts and very long line of swirled twine to accent the verse.

*************************************************************

With the rainbow in the verse section it prompted the twine coloured rainbow.

After viewing all the above.. I hope you are inspired to add even the smallest
of twine accents and some more detailed ones. So many possibilities are endless.
And twine goes a long way when working with it...and your colour options are endless too.

Thanks for stopping by today.. so happy to share my 1st of many projects 
using Bella Creationz Timeless Twine and many other Products with you.
