Hello! I got to play with some DCWV Petal Paper and I was so surprised to learn that paper twine is super easy to make. I cut an 1" x 36" strip of petal paper and attached it to my Sizzix Twist and Style as if it was twine. I turned the handle and pulled lightly. It works best with some tension. It takes a little while to begin seeing the results but keep turning and adding tension until you get an even twist.     I added some leaves and flowers to my twine...    Just for fun, I tried twisting 2 colors of paper.  This would be really fun for gift wrapping.  Thanks for stopping by!  💜💜💜 

This month's Emma Jewell Crafts box was loaded with goodies about the love of crafting.  There were a few really fun pieces like pom poms, sequins, clothespins, and a 'craft addict' pin. I turned these items into a place to hang my daughters drawings and crafty projects.   I used twine and a yarn needle to thread   pom poms and sequins. Then, I clipped on the clothespins and used them to hang the big card that comes in the box as well as the pin and my daughter's recent drawings. She made a couple rainbows and cut them out. She loves crafting and color, just like me!  Hope you make something fun with your Emma Jewell Crafts Box! Leave me a comment so I can see what you've made :) 

Hello! This month's Emma Jewell Crafts box is full of colorful elements that are perfect for celebrating our crafting hobby. I created this layout using the paper, stickers, tape, journaling cards, sequins, and even the bag they came in! It was my first time using the adhesives in the box and I really liked them. Especially the liquid glue. It dries clear and adheres quickly. The photos are of my daughter and her craft projects at school. She was so excited to use hot glue for the first time. Don't be alarmed, they have a special glove and the teachers help. In this layout, I'm celebrating her creations and her love of crafting. I used the holographic tape and the bag as a mat for my photos and I love the way these bright layers show case the photos. The contents of this box worked seamlessly with my current scrapbooking supply stash. That's always important to me because it allows me to use up my stash and make room for more goodies. ...
