Blog Hop!


Welcome to my stop on the blog hop! Imaginisce paired with The Twinery, and they do make such a great pair. I received a gorgeous range of twine in all colors of the rainbow and then some, and they were so fun to play with.

Since this is a blog hop, there are of course some fabulous giveaways up for grabs - 6 of them to be exact! Imaginisce will be giving away 3 Makin' Waves collections (valued at $37):

And The Twinery is giving away the "I Dream In Twine" package to 3 lucky winners as well (valued at $32):

To be entered to win, you must leave comments on each participating blog on the hop throughout the week. The deadline to comment is midnight EST, Sunday, April 22. Winners will be announced on each company blog on Monday, April 23rd.

For my project, I decided to scrap a picture of my kids from this Easter - we got to snap a quick photo with the Easter bunny....I'm told he was very soft :) I used the adorable Hippity Hop collection and of course lots of twine - to tie on top of the birdcage, to thred through a button, to tie through a button, to outline borders, and of course to make the cute flowers. To make the flowers, I cut circles out of cardstock and added adhesive, then wrapped twine around it in a circle, starting from the center. Then I ran them through my Big Shot with the flower die from Tim Holtz - Mini Tattered Florals (Movers and Shapers). Easy enough!
