The base of my tag has been inked up in a mixture of antique linen, brushed corduroy, scattered straw and black soot. The images were then stamped with black soot on to the tag and also the bird on the branch.
The cage was cut out in bronze stardream card, and the bird, along with a scrap of lace was added to the bottom of it to hide the holes. Both the key and the heart have been attached with raffia, and the leaf appeared from nowhere lol! The rusty tin behind the tag is where I store my TH dies, it just seemed appropriate! Pop on over to the DragonsDream TIO Challenge blog (link on my sidebar) and check out the fantastic work of the other DT members, and join in the challenge!! Elizabeth xxx

I agree, a very sophisticated tag! Lovely colours and I like the lace on the birdcage. Your key, heart and leaf are perfect.

A great tag. That cage and bird is a firm favourite of mine. Great choice of colours and the addition of the black lace adds sophistication. Great work team!
