papertrey ink blog hop

You may not be seeing a lot of activity here on the blog related to my participation in the Online Card Class Kick Start, but believe me behind the scenes there has been frenzied activity! I've been clearing, sorting, tidying, decluttering, recycling and finally making new storage and new ink charts. I plan on sharing a post about what I've been up to at a later date and part of that entails a giveaway :)

Anyway, back to the here and now; day 7s Kick Start homework was to challenge yourself. Suggestions were to pair up with a friend for a same supplies challenge, collect a few items for a limited supply challenge or use a challenge off the internet. Well as it happens I really wanted to have a go at  Papertrey Ink's September blog hop. Here's the gorgeous inspiration board for this month with a theme of felt & fabric wraps.

Do you see those little coin purses - first picture on the middle row? That neutral colour with yellow twine totally inspired this little fabric wrap!

I used this tutorial for the wrap but simplified it by using just one layer of fabric which I frayed at the edges for interest. A simple little tag perfect for the season finished it off.

That's me for today, I'm back tomorrow with another sneak peek of Lil' Inker Designs new release :)

Supplies: Stamps - Papertrey Ink lovely layers; Inks - Hero Arts latte; Card - Papertrey Ink rustic white; Die - Papertrey Ink jar label; Rhinestone - Stampin' Up; Fabric; Twine
