Tone-on-Tone at The Twinery

 
Hi everyone!
Teri here today, and I am thrilled to be here with my 
first post for The Twinery! YAY!
I've got a fun, simple and super cute card and gift birthday ensemble for you today that uses The Twinery's Maraschino, Lemon Drop, Mandarin, Peapod and Denim twines.
 

I started out by making this birthday card. I cut five tickets from scrap patterned papers and cardstocks. Then I wrapped the twines around each one. I used foam tape to adhere the tickets to my card.



You'll notice for added visual interest that I changed up how I wrapped the twine. I wrapped it all the way around some of the tickets and then tied bows at the front of three of them.


I used was inspired to do the same thing to decorate a 
small lunch pail to give with my birthday card.


I again cut tickets from cardstock and patterned papers. Then I wrapped twine around each of them. 
To adhere them to the tin, I just used foam tape.
When finished, I filled the tin up with a sweet treat of yogurt-covered raisins. Candy would be just as fun!

See you again soon!
