Save the layaway tags to your files -that is going to be your tag. Distress both sides with coffee or dip brush in water and tap on distressed ink to get the desired effect. cut a square 1 1/2 by 1 1/2 with scallop scissors, another suitable color 2 x 1 1/2, another 1 inch with scallops. distress, stamp with words or nature stamp like a bird, etc. Make a small manila tag and stamp and put rope hanger on it and the large tag. Draw or copy a branch on to the tag. Assemble, leaving an opening to put in your tag. Add a feather to the 1 inch square. Put a nature type picture on the other side and coat all with half and half elmers glue and water. Allow to dry and store in a container of cinnamon sticks or just a little cinnamon in a airtight conatiner for a few days.
Hope you like it and can utilize the tag for other projects.
