Trendy Twine Vase

Hi Everyone,

Today I am showing a project that is both altered and repurposed using Trendy Twine.  My son bought a bottle of lemon aide and when he finished it, I put it in the dishwasher and the label came off perfectly.  Next, I used sticky back tape and wrapped the whole bottle.  I got my twine called Chocolate Cupcake (brown & pink) and wrapped the entire bottle with this twine.  The sticky back tape made it perfect and all I had to do was make sure it was even.  When I finished I had 2 star tags which I covered one in Chocolate Truffle and the other in Strawberry Cupcake .  On the back side I taped a loop and covered it with what I had printed out to my friend telling her she is a "Star".  I then filled it with a bright pink carnation and baby's breath and she loved it.
This made a great gift with a little bit of work.
Here are the pictures of it:    This shows the stars.


Here is the bottle covered with twine.


Here is an aerial of the flowers in it.

My 2 adorable Beagles.

Hi Everyone,

This weekend I scrapped and used one of the new lines from Echo Park called "Woof".  It was perfect for some professional shots I had taken of Brandi & Jager at Petco.  The pictures are fabulous, but the paper allowed me to explore using some challenges from a "Mother May I scrap". 

Here is one called "PAWS"ATIVELY CUTE:



The next one is called BEST FRIENDS:



and the last one is called DOG DAYS:



I love them all, but I think my favorite is the last one.  You want to know a secret -- I usually don't work with circles since I don't like to cut them but I used punches and it worked perfect.

This is a great line for Pets, you should try it.

Matt is....

I finished another layout from Boys Rule Scrapbook Kit Club.  They had a sketch up and I used the Simple Stories Awesome paper line along with the embellishments that came with the kit and did a layout of my older son with that cute smile.

Here is the sketch: 


Now here is mine:

Hope you enjoy your Mother's Day everyone.
