Vintage Happy Birthday Tag

A little vintage tag for Vicki's new Cheerful Stamp Pad challenge: Tags - the interpretation is yours .... a little tag, a big tag, a tag book, ..... endless possibilities
I cut the tag base from Jenny Bowlin paper, stamped musical notes on the paper (Impression Obsession) and embossed it and double-machine stitched around the edges of the tag. The focal point of the tag is an adorable little bird image from the Graphics Fairy. I embellished the tag with lace, a die-cut metal border, some ribbon and a little stamped sentiment tag (Lili of the Valley).

For more marvellous vintage tag inspirations hop over to the Cheerful Stamp Pad blog. Hope you can join us, Petra.
