Present card

I had a lot of fun making this little shape card.  It's only about 4x4, I think- so maybe it's more like a gift tag than a card.  :)

I cut the present from Sweethearts at 4 inches.  I'm not sure if the picture makes it easy to tell, but the "ribbon" is cut from brown cardstock.  I put the brown pearl in the middle of the "ribbon" and used it to secure down the string for the tag.  On the tag, I stamped a heart from the Everyday Expression stamp set from Hobby Lobby.  It was such a quick and easy card, that I could really see myself mass producing them for tags.  It's really just three layers.


I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Bitten by the Bug 2- Birthday and pearls
Simon Says Stamp and Show- A bit of brown
