Rustic Canvas and Burlap Tags ~ DIY Holiday Hop

Here's a wee project I created for Petaloo's Holiday Hop with Canvas Corp. Be sure to check out the Petaloo blog to see all of the great holiday projects and for a chance to win a great prize pack.

I enjoy working with fabric and creating textile pieces but it always seems to take a back seat to paper crafting. So I was pleased for the excuse to blow the dust off of my sewing machine to create some rustic tags with elements from Canvas Corp.

Don't worry, you don't actually need a sewing machine for these. You can easily stitch them together by hand, or even glue them together.

Simply layer a couple of swatches of burlap and canvas, fray the edges, add a vintage image and some pretty Petaloo elements.

My images are printed on canvas, but you can stitch through paper if you like the look of those zig-zags.

I think these are going to make really pretty additions to my holiday packages.
