Product Focus- Twinchie Christmas- Fiona Randall

 Morning all Fiona here with a Product Focus Project.

I am really enjoying Seasonal makes at the moment so decided to create a focal piece using Tando Twinchies.

This is quite a large project but so fun to create using scraps of Scrapbooking paper from my stash with Tando Minis to further decorate the piece.

I started by adhering a piece of Scrap Book paper to a 12x12 piece of Tando Grey Board and inked the edges with Ground Espresso Distress Ink.

Next up I cut the squares to cover my Twinchies using a 2 inch square punch from christmas themed scrap booking paper. The paper squares were then adhered to the 25 Twinchies needed and the edges inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. Numbers and words were then stenciled and stamped onto the twinchies and coloured with Glitter Gel Pens. Glitter was then added to the Tando Stars and Snowflakes. The Tando Bells and Holly were coloured with Glitter Sparkle Pens.

The Twinchies were then arranged onto the board and Glued into place. Finally the Tando  Stars, Snowflakes, Holly and Bells were glued into place to finish.

A fun project with limited supplies but so effective when complete.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and read.

Do check back the rest of the week to see what the rest of the team are creating.

February Colour Week- Twinchie Plaque- Fiona Randall

Morning all Fiona here with a Twinchie Plaque for this months Colour Theme. 

I created a Mini Plaque from Tando Twinchies with a Tando Grey Board base to attach them too.

i used DecoArt Americana Acrylic Paints to base coat the Twinchie Squares choosing colours that tied in with the this months colour scheme. Stamping was then added  and inking around the edges.

A 6x6  base was the cut from a sheet of Tando Grey Board. The twinchie squares were then adhered into place on the base to create a tiled effect. I kept the layered Butterfly simple in monochromatic black and white with a bit of stamping for the focal point.

A quick and easy project which came together in no time at all.

Thanks for stopping by today

Hugs Fiona.

Twinchie Hanger

 

 

Morning All,

 It's Anything Goes Week on the Tando Blog this week and here is my contribution.

 

 

I decided to make a little hanger using the Twinchies-straight- Set. I decorated the twinchies with a gel print background. Then stamped the  filmstrip from a chocolate Baroque stamp set. I punched holes in the twinchies with a cropadile so as to attach the jump rings as shown. A piece of chain was added to the top to create a hanger. The Butterflies from my stash were then added as shown and to finish a sentiment was stamped and added to the centre twinchie. Quick, easy and fun to create a little piece of Art to hang.

Anything Goes Week - Twinchies by Nikki

Hi all,

You might have seen Di on Hochanda with the fab Twinchies sets a few weeks back.  I thought I'd make a few really quickly, to show you how easy it is to make some up for swaps etc.

I decided to use my Media Mister sprays as they were still on the table from a previous post.  And they are super easy!

I started by sorting the Twinchies, and playing with the layout of them.  Once decided, I layed them in the lid of a box for spraying, and kept the leftover parts in there too, I thought I'd spray them for another day.

I started with black spray all over, then dried between layers, and put white, then yellow on.

After the yellow I put white shimmer on again, and then blue and pink, then white again, and kept going until I liked the way they turned out.

They were a bit plain still, so I found some metal embellishments, and added to the tops.  A white pen highlighted some of the areas to make the layers stand out.

You could mount the three Twinchies on a board for hanging up, or leave them as they are for quick ready made swaps.

Thanks for joining us this week, don't forget to check out my teammates makes. 

Best Wishes,

Nikki K.
