Reversible Brown Bag


Today’s card is easy to create and remarkably handsome using cardstock and natural jute twine from the Paper Temptress! I combined strips of reversible BlueberryOlive and Eggplant Brown Bag cardstock that I embossed in white. Next I tore the edges of Sandstone cardstock and adhered the strips to it except the corners.  After each strip was securely in place, I folded back a corner, punched a hole and added a brad.  Pieces of natural jute twine was added to enhance the separation of the cardstock. Super effortless but so tasteful, go ahead, give it a try!

  1. Really, really nice Tammy. I love Paper Temptress papers. I won't color on anything except their Cryogen White. I would have their whole line if I could.

  13. Earthy and gorgeous with the subtleness that Mother Nature is so good at. Now you have me wanting to go and see some of the frilly littles that are starting to bloom in the garden.

  17. I love the paper. I only bought PT's cryogen but here you are, selling me on their other stuff....

    I like the three mattes forming the image... and the tearing technique....

    I'd love to have more time to craft ....
