Oh Snap...Happy Birthday

Hello everyone, Maria here from Maria Lina's Creative Designs, hope you are all enjoying your weekend. Today is Sequin/Shaker Saturday, so for my project I'm using some beautiful sorbet twine and pretty pastel sequins. These sequins go perfect with any of the sorbet twines! 

 

For the birthday sentiment I've used the "Oh Snap" and "Happy" stamp sets from Bella Creationz, which are great sets to work with.

 

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!!

 

Enjoy...

Fun Friday - Fairy Garden Style

Hi friends!  Happy Friday!!

Amber with Best Stamped Intentions here with some fun spring inspiration!

Do you ever wake up first thing in the morning like a light went off in your head and you absolutely knew what you were going to do that day?  Well, it happened to me Sunday.

Today, I've got a SUPER fun project that can TOTALLY be done with your kids.

Heck, even THIS big kid (me) had a blast making this!

My little girl, Neysa, went with me to Michael's on Sunday to pick out flowers, rocks and some accessories for our gardens.

The husband was watching The Master's tournament so it was a good time to escape for a bit!

After we got home, here's what we came up with.

Here's hers:

She was so proud and happy!  We are going to keep it in her room on her dresser so the fairies can come in at night. :)

Her and I frequently "cwaft" together, but this was even more fun than usual for her because it involved dirt. :)  She did ALL of this on her own - I only helped with the rocks in the pond and the banner and tutu's.  She's been trained very well.

Here is what I came up with for mine.

For the house and bench, I hot glued popsicle sticks together and wrapped with Timeless Twine in Key Lime Sorbet and Razzleberry Sorbet (which, BTW, are on sale for $7/spool or $18 for all 3 colors!!!).  I also used those 2 colors for the banner and clothes line.

I seriously had SO much fun making this - especially since I was able to spend that extra quality time with Neysa.  :)

xoxo, Amber

Technique Tuesday at Bella Creationz Timeless Twine..

hi.. Bev here today ..  how are you today..... So the question of the day?

How many of you have young girls, daughters or grand daughters who all have 

tried using these store bought instruction books to make fabulous and creative 

 friendship bracelets. Well now that I am on this amazing twine design team -

Bella Creationz Timeless Twine... 

I bought a book and played with it using timeless twine instead of embroidery floss or 

other suggested twines... and OMG it looks so cool. 

SO .. today's technique for the day is braiding.. using a book or you own patterns... 

what ever works for you.

So easy to follow the detailed instructions and the colours are so colourful and bright.

It is a perfect way to use twine for many projects. 

I didn't want to make a friendship bracelet but have many friends who read books and 

it made a perfect extention to a book mark to hang outside the book when needing a marker.

Here is my finished tag made using Paper House papers and adding a braided twine tail marker... it's perfect for all those book reader out there... And with Timeless twine you have a choice of so many fabulous colours.

On sale this month is the Sorbet Collection.... super fun  combos to work with.

Thanks for stopping by .. hope to see you again soon.

Move It Monday Wobble Gift Bag

Hi Everybody!

Jenny from Crazy About Cricut here, and it's time to get moving with Move It Monday!  I knew the perfect thing to use for today would be an Action Wobble.  Here's how my gift bag, and matching card turned out:

*The design team is highlighting the Sorbet twine's this month, so I used one of my favorites, Key Lime Sorbet.

*I added a fun border to the top and bottom by adhering twine strips.

*I LOVE how the Key Lime Sorbet Twine adds awesome texture, and subtle color to the top of the waves.

*I sprinkled Sequins all over this bag!  I also used them for the shaker element in this bag.  Check out the video below to get the full effect!!

*Eeek, isn't he just too stinkin' cute??!!

*I also made a smaller version of him to create a matching card.  (He wobbles too, but he was too shy to be in the video, hee hee.)

It's planNERD Sunday!!!

Hi, everyone!  Ashley here from Marine Wife's Scrappin' Life with your next installment of planNERD Sunday!  Today I'm going to share with you my April cover and month-at-a-glance pages, as well as my pages for this week, and I will include links to all of the Bella Creationz and Timeless Twine supplies at the end of my post.

I started out this month by edging my monthly divider with some Key Lime Sorbet twine from Timeless Twine, outlining the Mason jar with the same twine, and adding some sequins to the jar, flowers, and the dot on the 'i.'

For my month-at-a-glance page, I used planNERD and *NEW* Church Plans stamp sets to include things I already knew were going on this month.  I really LOVE the new Church Plans set!  There are so many great images and words to choose from.  

 I decided to go with a travel theme for this week and added some washi tape to the bottom of each page and a travel-themed washi tape across one of the dividers (to cover up labels I didn't want).  I added the "Hydrate" stamp from the planNERD set on each day, as I'm REALLY trying to lose weight and keep up with my water intake.  Then, I added small hearts (also from the planNERD set) I could check off for a to-do list and any other extras going on.  I included the "Project" stamp from the planNERD 2 set on Sunday, so I made sure I would check things off for my blog post when they're finished, then finished up the week by including some "Happy Anniversary" and love stamps from the Happy Days and Oh,Snap! stamp sets, since Wednesday is my tenth wedding anniversary.

Supplies Used
Bella Creationz sequins--Clearly Beautiful, new pastels (**COMING SOON!**), and Sparkly Clear
Bella Creationz stamp sets--Church Plans, Happy Days, planNERD, planNERD 2, Plan to be Fit and Oh, Snap!
Color Box Mini Ink in Razzberry
Darice Ink It Up! in Turquoise
Timeless Twine Key Lime Sorbet twine
Washi tape from stash



If you're a planner stamper and haven't checked out the Bella Creationz stamp sets yet, you really should!  They're super cute and can be used for more than just planners!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great Sunday, a wonderful week, and happy scrapping!

Shaker/Sequin Saturday is here!

Hey there, it's Jenni from Wish I Was Scrappin here to bring you another installment of shaker/sequin Saturday!!  

Shaker cards have always intimidated me, but this one was not has hard as I remembered they were!

The stamp set is from Unity Stamp Co., the paper is from Teresa Collins (Daily Stories), the sketch is from MyFavoriteThings and the key lime sorbet twine and clearly beautiful sequins are of course from Bella Creationz and Timeless Twine!  

If you love this twine, you all are in luck because the sorbet twine (there are two others) are on sale!  Go check it out!

Bunny Love!

It's Friday, it's Friday!  I love Fun Friday!  This is Julie from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers with you today. What better way to have fun than a cute QKR Stampede image, a matching sentiment, and some pretty, springtime Timeless Twine to go with it?

I colored this adorable QKR Stampede image and sentiment.  I colored the Springtime Bunny with Copic markers.   I used a few dies on this card -- large heart by Die-namics, half-circle heart die by Memory Box.  The edges of the large heart are inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Spun Sugar. The pink hearts that I wrapped with Timeless Twine were on my desk, left over from a Valentine project. The designer papers are from the My Mind's Eye Dwell 6x6 pad.

The fun twine?  All Timeless Twine, of course!  That goes without saying. I used all 3 twines from the Sorbet Collection (on SALE this month!)

I used Watermelon Sorbet, Key Lime Sorbet, and Razzleberry Sorbet. Please don't ask me to pick a favorite, because I can't.  I love them all!

Please join us on Facebook for even more inspiration.

To die for Wednesday!

Hello!  This is Cathy from
Mimi's Craft Corner and today
is To Die for Wednesday!

For anyone who truly wants to be creative and NOT

depend on a Cricut or Silhouette, die cutting

is for you!  I use a Cuttlebug but the 

Big Shot is on my Wish List.  I reach

for my dies over and over again.  LOVE THEM!

  

It was treat day at my office

and I put these together for my docs!

I made the tags using my Silhouette.

I printed my sentiment first and then

cut them out with the software.

The little "box" the candy sets in

is a die that I use over and over!  It comes

from My Creative Time and it's called

the treat slider.

Here is another variation using the same

box but the tags are cut using metal dies that

I ran through my Cuttlebug.

The Hershey Nuggets are covered

with 1x3 inch patterned paper strips.

I added a plastic bag with the final

touch being Watermelon Sorbet Timeless Twine

 to tie the tag on.

This is such a fun project and is always

appreciated at my office.  With 12 providers

I need to be creative when I want to give them

something.  It always amazes me how

a little paper, stamps, Timeless Twine and

CHOCOLATE make such an

awesome gift.

Have a great day!

Cathy
