The Twinery and Bella Blvd!


Welcome to the Bella Blvd and The Twinery Design Team-up Week! To see all of the projects from this week, be sure to head to The Twinery's blog and the Bella Blvd. blog. There are some giveaways you won't want to miss!

The bright, happy Bella Blvd. products and twine from The Twinery are a perfect match! I made a card and coordinating bag and I can't wait to give it to my friend this week for her birthday!


I loved the cute little flags and the chipboard from Bella, so I was sure to include them. I also used some Lilac twine around the flower to hang down with the banners. Now, sometimes cards need prettier packaging than just an envelope, so I like to use glassine bags (I get mine at Monika's shop).


I used more Bella Blvd. paper to punch some shapes and cut a little banner, then I centered it on the folded down top, punched a few holes and tied it with Pink Sorbet twine. The bag is almost as much fun as the card!

How would you like to win an awesome twine sampler? 3 Original Twine Samplers will be given away- this is the sampler pack that started my twine addiction! :) To be entered, you just have to leave a comment on the participating Twinery designers' blogs each day of the event this week. Deadline to visit and leave comments to win is 11:59 EDT, Sunday May 20th. Winners will be announced on Tuesday, May 22nd on The Twinery blog.

Bella Blvd is also offering up a prize tomorrow, so be sure to head to their blog to check that out as well. Good luck and thanks for visiting!

What a beautiful card, Sarah, and love how you packaged it up in the glassine bag! I've yet to buy those but now I'll add them to my wish list. The Bella Blvd collections have such fun embellishments, colors and designs. They go so well with all The Twinery twine! Great hop.
