So this is the brief.....



STRING!!!! (yarn/twine) What a great recycled material to use on a project, So many uses.

A fun one for sure!!!
You can use String, Yarn or Twine for this challenge.

You can use left over bits, or recycled pieces used to wrap Christmas presents....Just think outside the box and create a page using this material.

You can include it on your work as is, or think of a clever way to incorporate it some how-

You might want to stamp with it.

Emboss paper or card stock with it,

Impress it into wet media...... etc

You are only limited by your creative imagination!!!!
