The 14th Anniversary of the day I became Mrs. Wright will soon be here. And because I know Gordon rarely reads my blog, I feel pretty safe in sharing this little wall hanging I made with some Maraschino baker's twine from The Twinery and a simple heartfelt sticker from the Thinking of You set by SRM Stickers.
Using a spare page from a die cut mini album I had on hand, I punched another hole to string my Maraschino baker's twine through that, in addition to helping to attach my craft art to the scrapbook paper backing my rustic frame, is also used to string my small hand cut heart inside the tube. To make it stay on my twine, I added a knot below the heart and a knot above the heart to keep it stationary. I attached the 4 strands of baker's twine with two glue dots to the paper and covered the glue dots with a circle punched piece of red cardstock that matches the heart and the backing to the Love You sticker.
You might want to remember this project come Valentine's Day next year as it would also make a perfectly lovely gift idea for your husband then as well! Or even the kids.
And just for you...a way to share your stash of The Twinery twine with a dear friend. After wrapping my mini spools with a sampling of baker's twine, I wrapped the lid of the tube with one of our newer shades of twine, Shore, and a small section of the yellow scalloped border sticker.
To make the For You tag, just add your sticker to light blue cardstock, circle punch it, and add two small holes to string your baker's twine through holding it in place with two small knots.
Now for your chance to win some baker's twine from The Twinery...
the prize will be 3 full spools | winner's choice of colors ($42 value)
To be eligible to win, you MUST leave a comment on each of the participating designers' blogs from The Twinery. A complete list of designers will be on The Twinery blog each day. Deadline to leave comments is 11:59 pm Sunday, April 29th. Don't forget to leave your e-mail address so we can contact you if you're the winner.
Thanks to SRM Stickers for providing the tubes and sticker collections for me to create with.
