I offset the sentiment for for a different look.

The tassel is homemade, I used DMC 5 100% Cotton embroidery thread. DMC's cross stitch thread is too thin. Stampin' Up!'s baker's twine would definitely work as well as crochet thread. I lost my original instructions on how to make tassels.  I used this VIDEO but modified it; practice, practice, practice.
