Dad's Birthday

Hello there,
A few days ago it was Neils Dad's birthday and so here is the card I made for him, now it is very different from the usual sort of card I make so please be honest and tell me truthfully what you think??? I mean I liked it but it I think it is just so different.. I used a base of Soft Suede and teamed it with Brocade Blue,

Birthday was stamped with the Just Perfect Alpha and punched with the Jewelery Punch I threaded it with Linen Thread which was then wrapped around Silver Brads, base stamped with the lovely Medallion stamp,
across the bottom I stamped some Twill Tape with the little flourish from Tiny Tags in matching inks, I then sponged the tape with Soft Suede to "dirty" it up a bit, finishing it with staples,
I decorated it inside too :-)

and the arty angle where you can see I have left the tags loose so you get some movement with them,


Thanks for stopping by today, Hoping your school holidays are going well ;-)
