PaperTreyInk April 2016 Blog Challenge

I've been so busy with holidays and company and my volunteer job, that I am just now getting back into one of my favorite things -- participating in challenges! I really like them because they give me a focus, an assignment and a deadline so to speak.

The April Blog Challenge at PaperTreyInk starts with an inspiration picture. It reminded me of a kraft envelope closed with string in a figure 8, so I worked from that idea. PTI Circle Scribbles stamps created the background in warm colors on cream cardstock, and the hello tag is one of the PTI tiny tags and stamp sets.



Now if I can just remember to link this up on the 25th!

    Very good ideas here! I thought of those string envelope closures at some point in the last couple days. You've got it all here with Scribbles and twine connections.

    Isn't it fun to see what everyone takes away from one picture. I never thought of the string envelope closures. Great take on the inspiration pic! Super cool!
