Twine Cards- Update!

Hello there!  Am I the only one who gets so overwhelmed in the month of May? So much going on--- games, school dates, recitals, etc.  Mind blowing.  Well, part of that has prevented me from posting some of my projects that I have created for my dt's here.  I do like to share my work on here because I understand that time is precious and it is not always possible to follow links to other blogs I contribute to.  So, here are two cards that I had on two different blogs this past month:

The first card was on the Helmar blog: 

 

Supplies:  white cardstock (Gina K Designs); baker's twine- Denim, Pink Sorbet (The Twinery); Patterned paper- Echo Park; Stamps-By the Numbers (My Favorite Things), sentiment-Moments + Minutes (Technique Tuesday);  Die- Fly a  Kite Dienamics (My Favorite Things); ribbon- Pinecone Press; pearls- Recollection's (Michael's); tiny attacher stapler- (Tim Holtz); Memento tuxedo black ink.

Next, this card was on The Twinery blog last week.  I love the whimsical feel to it with the wrapped leaves:

 

For this card I used  Pea pod and Honeydew baker's twine from The Twinery.  I also used the Silhouette file 3 branch tree by Lori Whitlock to cut the tree shape.  The patterned paper and stickers are from Hello Summer collection by Echo Park.

Thanks for stopping by!
