I used papers from My Mind's Eye Stella Rose/Hattie collection. I also added some chunky glitter to the frame behind the stamped bird and the text leaves (using SU punch). I made the rolled roses myself. I tied some butchers twine to the top of the pleated paper and frayed the ends. I also frayed it a bit on the twine going through the tag towards the bottom.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I have been quite the slacker lately because I have been glued to the tube. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Olympics. I love hearing the different stories the athletes tell from different countries. I love seeing the families of the athletes in the stands, so proud, scared and nervous. I cry a lot during the Olympics. Sigh...My family knows that for two weeks-they are on their own! LOL! My oldest came to me on Wednesday and said, "Will you PLEASE go to the grocery, mom"? When the twins are older, we would love to take the boys on a big vacation during the Olympics. I see Rio in our future....
Thanks for stopping by,
Emily
