Thank You gelatins! It has been fun!

Hello, gel-a-tins friends and family! As you have seen, this is a week of farewells and Thank Yous! Today is my last post for gel-a-tins. It has been a pleasure to be part of such a talented design team for over the past year! I am thankful for the opportunity and the chance to meet some wonderful ladies!


To make this CAS card, I used a variety of 'THANKS' from the Merci stamp set.  The main sentiment is stamped in pink. The rest are randomly stamped in black.

Let the Trendy Twine CELEBRATION begin

Who is ready for a CELEBRATION? Have you seen the latest color from Trendy Twine? A FOUR color twine - black, red, yellow, and white! Does that reminder you of the happiest place on Earth? 

Let the Celebration begin!



I was super excited to learn about this color! I will be visiting the happiest place in Earth in a few months, so I had a number of projects that came to mind for this twine. At least I wanted to make a countdown calendar, but decided to make a planner instead.


The twine bookmark is made using 6 long strands (braided) of the Celebration twine.
