Watch Us Wednesday - Baker's Twine 4th of July

Hey Friends,

{This is my 2nd post of the day, for my DeNami Designs Product Spotlight Post, click here}

Today, it's my turn to spotlight a product over on The Kraft Journal blog hosted by The Kraft Outlet.  Today I am featuring Baker's Twine. It has many uses. For today, I used it as a focal image. 

I die-cut a star from a Large Kraft Shipping Tag. Next I took a piece of scrap cardstock slightly smaller than the tag and I ran through my Xyron machine to make one side sticky and ran the Red Baker's Twine back and forth on the sticky scrap cardstock. When complete, I added it to the back of the tag where the window of the star is seen. I turned it so my twine was at an angle. 
Next, I decorated my tag with the 4th of July greeting, stamped and die-cut stars are added for a decorative touch. The greeting is from (My Craft Lounge and no longer in business) All, that was left was to finish the card as desired.  The Kraft Outlet's Buff Ivory Cardstock makes a wonderful base.
Hope you enjoyed this 4th of July greeting using today's Product Spotlight: Baker's Twine.
