make it work

Confession: Baker’s Twine is not an easy embellishment for me to work into my scrapbook layouts.
Doesn’t mean I don’t like it. I use it in my packaging and gift wrapping but when it comes to scrapbooking, I’m always at a loss. I adore the twine that came with the Snow Cone add on and I had to make it work.
Here’s how I did it. First, ***tape down your letter onto some scrap cardstock. Straight lines work best but I’m sure if you’re careful and determined enough, you can manage a curvy letter.Snip pieces of twine and place onto your taped letter as shown above. You want your twine to extend beyond your taped letter. Get your sharp scissors out (Honey Bees work great for this) and snip out your letter.
Fun, right?

xot.

Ha…did you think I forgot about choosing a winner for Maggie’s class?? Fooled ya.

Nancy, please email me at lifelovepaper@gmail.com by Tuesday at the latest to claim your winnings. The Studio Calico blog is giving away another spot so be sure to comment there for another chance.

**The ProGlide Tape Runner is great for this. It’s nice and tacky. I wouldn’t recommend any other plain tape runner for this. You can also use that redline tape as well…will probably be better if you are creating O’s and S’s.
