Twine & Tag Garland

  

Hi everyone! This is Sheri with my last post for The Twinery. I have enjoyed my time on the design team but as we know, all good things must eventually come to an end. I'm happy to move over so more of you can enjoy working with this fabulous twine! To those of you who applied for the new design team, I wish you the best of luck! It is the absolute best team to be a part of!

Now onto my project!  I'm in full swing Christmas spirit around here so, of course, my project was going to be something Christmas related.  I started looking around my studio to see what I could find that would inspire me. I love shipping tags so my eyes fell to those.  I pulled out a stack and began pulling things out to play with. I decided to work up a garland using shipping tags.  I have the perfect tree for it!  One of the trees in my house is what we call "The Lodge Tree". It's my woodsy-themed tree with red plaid ribbon and pinecone garland mixed with lots of natural looking elements.  It's my favorite tree I have. I thought this would go perfect on that tree.

So, first, I pulled out my tags, a few things from my Christmas embellies stash, stamps, ink and punches.

I pulled out some of my stamps from The Twinery's previous blog hops with The Stamps of Life and Market Street Stamps. Love both of these sets.  Added in some other Christmas stamps too.

Then just started stamping randomly on the tags.

Added embellishments to each of the tags

Then began stringing them on my favorite twine!

Then hung it on my favorite tree! 

Love it!

Here's a few close up shots....

The twine mixes perfectly with my tree! 

I love the look it adds.

And here is the full look on the front of my tree!

And now excuse me while I go make some more to add!
