Rocking out with Mod Podge!! *giveaway*


Thanks for coming back for another Torendi/Mod Podge Rocks Friday!  Sadly it's out last Friday together but I know I am going to continue using Mod Podge in my craft room on a regular basis. Please hop over to the Mod Podge Rocks blog to see what Amy created this week and keep reading here to find out about our giveaway!

Heidi wowed!! me with her work with this months Torendi Kit "Framed Cuteness" and Mod Podge! I honestly want to go digging around for a cassette tape so I can scrap-lift this! Isn't the kawaii tape stamp just too cute and a perfect fit!?


Beth is amazing!  She is always coming up with something so new and creative. In her own words " I used the Mod Podge to make a crafting fruit roll up and embossed using Mod Podge that I dyed with black reinker." Super cool!  She said she would be posting in more detail on her blog!

I followed Beth's lead from this months product focus and made a gift card holder from our coin envelopes, Bam Pop! Popfont 2 and Cosmo Cricket the Boyfriend paper and chipboard.  I used the Paper Mod Podge to glue down and seal the paper.  I sprayed the corner with glimmer mist while the Mod Podge was still wet to make it looks more blended into the project. (for those of you who follow my personal blog...here is another sneak peek at another  E.A.D Designs Stickerz line!!)

Are you still with me?! Good!  Want a chance to win a Mod Podge Starter Pack and some Hurly Burly Fabric!!??  Please leave your comments here and I will announce the winner on Monday. (yes winners have been picked for the other weeks, and their packs are already in the mail)



Thank you so much to Amy and Mod Podge for celebrating National Craft Month with Torendi!  Please go let Amy know how much you enjoyed our month together!  You may even find a special "surprise" coupon code on her blog. ;)

Coin Envelope Thank Yous






Hello Torendi Setters! How was your weekend? Mine was busy up until the last hour. Lots of emails, lots of phone calls, lots of laundry, lots of packing, lots to-do!

However, I did find time to make these Kraft Coin Envelope Thank Yous for my boys' teachers! These kraft coin envelopes from Torendi are decorated on both sides and I created a little tag insert that has a picture on one side and a thank you on the other!

Do you have any cool ideas for using these Kraft Coin Envelopes?



Materials are all from Torendi (unless otherwise noted):

May I have the Envelope please...

No, this isn't the Oscar's. It is however time for Torendi's Product Highlight! This month we'd like to give special attention  Kraft Coin Envelopes.


These babies are very affordable and easy to doll up! I have two examples to share and I'll start with a layout of my son on his first day of Preschool:


I had several small pictures that I wanted for the layout with out overcrowding so I utilized the envelopes to create some mini flip pages. Here are some details:


In side the envelopes I slipped in some memorabilia; he attempted to write his name its so cute!

The Kraft Coin Envelopes are perfect for gift card  or a gift of cash. I can't bear the thought of just handing either one of these over in a mundane package so creating a purse came to mind. Torendi has so many great papers and embellishments this was a blast to make!


I am really loving how this came out! I can't wait to find someone to give this to! I wished there were more hours in a day because I still want to create a tag book with these or fold them down the middle a stitch together for a mini album. Well that just about wraps it up.Thanks for stopping by and don't be afraid to push the envelope! Beth aka BR-T
