Day 3 of PTI's 8th Birthday Celebration!

For Day 3 of Papertrey Ink's birthday celebration, we were challenged to create a tag with a matching gift bag.

I've been on a masculine kick lately so I found a masculine gift bag I had and went to work to making the perfect tag for it.

Here is the handmade tag with the bag I had in my stash:

Here is the tag all by itself:

The tag base is soft stone to go along with the shades of grey on the bag. I did not have bright blue card stock so I used a technique I just learned from the Online Card Class I just took -- direct-to-paper inking - the ink for the background is what I used to color my white card stock to make it bright blue. It was easy and awesome!

Thanks for visiting!
