Instructions:

1. Cut a piece of olive cardstock to 21 cm x 14.5 cm and fold in half to make an A-6 size card. (European card size)
2. Cut 6 cm x 14.5 cm out of the first piece of scrapbook paper.
3. Cut 5 cm x 14.5 cm out of a second piece of scrapbook paper.
4. Cut a strip measuring 1 cm x 14.5 cm out of a third piece of scrapbook paper.
5. Glue the first piece and then the second onto the card. They will overlap.
6. Glue now the strip onto the card over the overlap.
7. Cut a piece of netting out approximately the size of 9 cm x 10 cm and use the thin sticky tape to stick it diagonal like onto the card.
8. Make a tag out of the olive green cardstock.
9. Make a second tag slightly smaller than the green one out of the 2nd paper color and glue it onto the first tag.
10. Make a “pocket” out of a piece of the third paper. This measures the width of the smaller inside tag and is about 1/3 of the height of the smaller tag.. Glue this piece onto the tag but leave the top open.
11. Cut a small piece of the first paper measuring 4 cm x 3 cm and punch each of the corners. Emboss “hi” in the center of this small piece and then insert it into the “pocket” made.

13. Punch a hole in top of the tag and insert a piece of twine through the hole.
14. Stick the tag on the card with strong double sided sticky tape.
