Happy Birthday!

I made this Birthday card for my sister-in-law who loves gardening and has a beautiful yard. The focal point of this card is a wooden trellis/gate from Wycinanka. The papers are from Tim Holtz's Idea-ology 8"x8" Etcetera pack.

 

Tim Holtz - 12 Tags of 2012 (April)

For this month's tag I once again used all Stampin' Up! products.  I started by inking and embossing a chipboard bird with burgundy ink and classy copper emboss powder.  I then used a flower garden textured impressions embossing folder on the background paper and embossed the raised portions of the image with clear emboss powder.  I sponged over the image with old olive, distressed the edges and finished with crumb cake ink.  I completed the tag by adding  hodgepodge hardware, a trinket key and seam binding ribbon.  The background paper is called well worn.
