Happy day after Christmas everyone - are you out shopping all the sales?? - I'm back at work for a couple of days and then off for New Year's week - whoo hoo!!
Today I'm participating in the Papertrey Ink December Blog Hop The challenge is "Tied up With String"
For my project - I decorated a white 6" x 8" mesh net bag from Pouch Mart with a tag and twine for a new home gift.
I used two dies - Tag Sale #5 and the house die from Boards and Beams - embossing the house stamp from Boards and Beams in white on kraft card stock. I tied the tag onto the bag by simply looping the twine through the holes in the mesh.
Since the bag is see-through - the lovely gold and silver scented candle I placed inside is shown off quite nicely!
If you'd like to be inspired by all kinds of ways to use string - check out the PTI blog hop here where everyone is linking up their projects!
