Happy birthday, jolly sailor! (Neat and Tangled release week)

Hi there!

happy birthday, jolly sailor! (neat and tangled release week)

I'm using a new die set designed by Miriam for Neat and Tangled: the Classic Tag 2 dies. The tag size is large, but not too large, perfect for getting creative with other dies, or for scene-building!

For my tag, I cut an opening into each one using the rectangle Ornate Frames die. It has a wavy, irregular look that reminded me of a vintage treasure map!

I colored my little boy and girl pirate (from the new Yo Ho Ho set) in darker skin tones (copic colors E11, E19 and E13.)

I couldn't help but make the tags into little shakers, and I heat-embossed the happy birthday sentiment onto black banner flags from Scalloped.

Everything new goes on sale tomorrow morning! Check out the Neat and Tangled blog this morning to see what the rest of the design team has made - click!

    Oh, I just love the way you cut out the middle of the tag &
    inked up the edges. And of course I love that they're shakers
    (my favorite!).
