Seize the Birthday - Tags

Hello friends. It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and this will be our last challenge until January 2019.  We are taking December off for the holidays and our families.
Our "Toppings" option this time is to use tag(s) on your card.
I sponged 3 shades of Distress Oxide Inks on my paper and die cut the MFT Stitched Traditional Tags die, and then added a thin black mat.  I also used an inked piece to stamp and die cut the flowers from MFT Wildflowers stamps and dies.  I used a darker yellow marker to give the flowers dimension and then colored the centers with a brown marker.  The leaves are colored with Copics.  The sentment is from SU Elemntary Elegance (retired).  I added a Baker's Twine bow to the top and mounted the tag and flowers with foam tape.  The white panel was stenciled with lt. green ink and MFT Small Brick Wall Stencil for a subtle background which also has a think black mat.

Be sure to check out all the fabulous cards by my teammates over at Seize the Birthday.  I hope you will be inspired to play along.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I hope you have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn

  8. What a pretty CAS birthday card, JoAnn! Love the idea to use the inked paper for the flowers so that the color flows to the tag smoothly!!! The subtle stenciling on the background makes the card even more lovely!
