Twine Twirling: A Scrapbook Tutorial by Laura Craigie
Today I am happy to share with you guys a video of a scrapbook page and tutorial from start to finish. I am a big fan of Bakers twine and adding a bit of whimsy to my pages. Since I love a good deal I bought my twine on these large spools that will last me for years. The benefit of that is I don’t feel I have to hoard them as there is SO much, and use them freely in my designs. I decided to put them to work and make some cute little swirls of twine. They are sewn directly to the page so they won’t go anywhere and require no adhesive apart from securing the ends to the back of your layout or card. I hope you’ll watch my video and see just how easy and fun they are.
Thank you guys so much for watching! I hope you were able to lean a fun new technique to apply to your paper crafting. I was also just thinking how much fun this would be to do with multiple colours of twine on one twirl. You could cut them in short lengths and tie them together for one big length before sewing it around. Anyhow, If you feel inspired to try it please leave me a link in the comments as I’d love to see, and I promise to check back in.
