Trendy Twine!

I don't know if I'm just late on this new trend or what but I'm LOVING the products over at Trendy Twine!!! Thanks to Emma at My Creative Time for introducing me to these new and fun products. I have seen different twines on the market but these are the first I've seen with multiple colors and they are amazing! I wish I have the bankroll to support my Love of crafting because I would have ordered EVERY color available. :) Head on over to Trendy Twine now to see their amazing products and to enter their very first challenge.

My Sample card!

When I was asked to create a card using the following sketch I knew immediately that I wanted to use my Cuttlebug. I had just received my new toy and Loved the way it added texture and dimension to my projects. Since making this card I have used my cuttlebug on several projects and am so glad I made the investment!!!

Card Recipe:

Paper: DCWV textured cardstock, 

Vellum and Designer paper

Technique: Dry Embossing with my Cuttlebug

Ink: Stampin' Up Chocolate Chip

Embellishments: Got Flowers and Rhinestones

Thank you so much for stopping by and I look forward to seeing everyones cards!

Have a fantastic day ~Yvonne

My Creative Time - Throwback Thursday

Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge

For this challenge Emma wanted us to use either the "Paper Doll Dress Up" OR "Everyday Paper Doll" cartridge and the project MUST include either heat or dry embossing on it!

For my project I decided to use the Everyday Paper Doll cartridge to make a A2 size card. I enlarged the hand cuffs from the policeman accessories to 3 1/4" and shadowed it with a 3 1/2" layer. I cut and embossed a tag layer at 3 3/4" and shadowed it with a 4" layer. The hearts are cut at 3/4" and 1 1/4" and the sentiment "Your Heart Belongs to Me" is from My Creative Time's new stamp set:

"You had me at Chocolate".

~Here's my Card!~
