Ok... so now that those details are done, lets get onto the project! I first wanted to get some sepia inspiration. I didn't have to look far or for long.  Check these babies out:

I wanted something similar but SIMPLE. This is what I came up with:

Yes, I know! I told you these manila tags would come in handy! These are so simple, fun to make but look nice, don't ya think? I heat embossed my image onto the tag and then using a water brush painted some Distress Ink: Scattered Straw. Easy.


Yes... and that. is. it. Add some black and white twine and your ready for a package or gift bag!

Ooh La La!

Thats all for today. Thanks for stopping in! I hope you like the hop and find a lot of inspiration for your crafty soul. Give a try yourself. I think you will love it!

The manilla tags are a great idea to make something sepia. These are sooo do able! You could use Christmas stamps for this to make tags for the holidays with some white/red twine.
