So, let me start with the gift tag. I used retired pattern papers from Cosmo Cricket and Stampin' Up!. Both pattern papers embrace farm cooking! I used the same layout as the previous cards.
the prize:
Ok. barn red. chicken wire. altered clothes pins. and a retro pattern. I purchased the simple frame from a big box store. Painted it literally bard red. I used sand paper to distress the frame. I sealed the distress with a clear coat. I used my husbands staple gun to adhere the chicken wire to the inside of the frame. I cut the pattern paper to fit inside the frame. To decorate the clothes pins, I painted them white. Then adhered a small strip of the pattern paper to the top of the clothes pin. I stamped a few inspiring words at the front of the clothes pin. I hot glued a paper blossom and vintage crochet trim bow over the middle section of the pin. I also added a small wooden button below the bow. I felt it gave a more 'finished' look.
This beauty can be hung on the wall, or stand on a counter. I wanted the recipient of this prize to have choices {smile}. Choices are good!
Thank you for stopping by and having a look around! Hope you get a chance to create something today!
