Birds and Birdcages Blog Hop

Hi everyone!  Welcome to the Birds and Birdcages Blog Hop hosted by Sandra from 365 Days of Cricut.
You should have arrived here from Amy's blog....if not click here to start at the beginning.

I decided to try something different for my project today.  I recently purchased a huge box of goodies from Maya Road. It was filled with all kinds of chip board pieces, albums and embellishments.   

This tag is made of canvas.


I inked up the tag with distress inks and then used my Market Street Stamps Vintage Music stamp for the background.
The birdcage stamp and velvet flower are from my Maya Road goodie box.   I cut the little red birds from Straight from the Nest and the sentiment is from Scrappy Moms stamps - Everyday Greetings.
This isn't my usual style but I had fun trying something new!

I have some Blog Candy!  Make sure you are a follower and leave a comment for a chance to win....

Thanks for stopping by!  Your next stop is Sylvia!

    Love the tag. Did you cut the canvas with a die or was it already in a tag shape?
