'Ways to get Packing' is the theme for today's WT challenge! I don't have any travel-themed stamps so I decided to make a luggage tag for DD's hand luggage. She's travelling to grannie and grumpy (yes, that's what we call him!) in England this summer ALL ON HER OWN!!! She's so excited!
Anyway, the luggage tag has her initials on it and is made with Celery Textured Paper, Celery DSP and chocolate chip accents. I added a jumbo brad for the ribbon. The tag folds over and there is a piece of acetate over the travelling information ... quite a lot of work when it just looks like a single piece of card on the photo!!!
It was fun to do, thanks Julia!

This is a very pretty and striking card. I love how you did the ribbon in the celery and chocolate - it really takes the card up a notch. Very nice!! Your daughter must be excited to go to England. I'd be very excited too!!

First of all this card is just so pretty...love the idea of the luggage tag, the color combo is one of my Favs, and that sentiment fits.
Secondly, your daughter will love England...our daughter spent 3 months there studying and she did not want to come home!! We did get to go and visit her while she was there...such a great time!
TFS!

Wonderful! I was wondering if you were going to laminate it when I began reading your description, then saw there's acetate on it. Safe travelling to your dd.
