I was inspired by a plethora of YouTube videos to pull out my Tim Holtz Caged Bird die, a definite favorite, but sadly underused. No longer, though -- I plan to make a bunch of these to have on hand for the holidays. My end result could work as a gift or treat tag, an ornament, or even as a card element. The rosette was something I rescued from my leftovers pile and the flowers were from my stash (Bo Bunny for the rolled-style flower and Prima for the poinsettia). The bird (part of the Tim Holtz die) was cut from My Mind's Eye's Lost & Found Christmas collection. I added a sentiment flag with "From Our Family" using JustRite's Christmas Mini Sentiments set. At the top is a hemp bow topped with two rusted jingle bells. The snowflakes were diecut with MFT's Snowflake trio Dienamics die and topped with glass glitter.
Thanks for visiting,

This is gorgeous girl! Wow!
Love all the pretty things! You make rusted jingle bells look awesome. Wish my photos looked half as good as your "not so good photos". :-) Have a great day!
Amy, a visit to your blog always leaves me smiling. :) Your work is absolutely stunning and so inspirational. I adore this tag. Every element is pulled together so perfectly. Just beautiful!
Holy moly, Amy, you rocked this bird cage die like I've never seen before!! LOVE it and you've inspired me to make some of these for the holidays as well!
This was one of the first dies I ever bought, and I loved it but rarely use it. Time to dust it off. Your tag is so beautiful! Now I know what to do with that die!!! ~Hugs, Cheryl
so cool, love how you made a tag out of it, such pretty embellishing!!
I love this! Great elements that make up this vintage looking tag! I am having the hardest time finding those rusty bells...going to try and make my own :)
Amy- this is gorgeous, it would be so perfect for a tag on a gift, put it on a card or an ornament. Just lovely, love it and I think that I have a couple die cuts- don't have the die but will make due w/ a couple I do have. Thanks for sharing.
This is so pretty! This will make a beautiful tag!
