Tim's Birdcage


I cut the birdcage out of gold card then put it in an embossing folder and ran it through the Cuttlebug. The bird was cut from light brown card. I stamped the bird using the same Tim Holtz stamp that I used on the tags and main card. The flowers and leaf were die cut and the flowers textured with the same embossing folder used on the birdcage.
The birdcage is more flimsy when it's embossed especially with thinner card so if you try it be careful when removing it from the folder.

Birthday Easel Card


The image was stamped in onyx Versafine ink and embossed in detail clear. I did a little paper piecing to incorporate the background papers. The fringing was done using a Martha Stewart punch. The flowers, some die cut and some punched were put in an embossing folder and run through the Cuttlebug to add some texture.
