Back To Nature

This is the final layout for my Sweet Secrets class.

I used pop-up dots for the hand-cut pieces to add depth and dimension, and don't you just love that new long wooden birdcage from Kaisercraft?!

I applied Tea Dye distress ink to strategic parts of the birdcage and then went over the inked portions with Antique Linen distress stickles. I then embellished the cage with pearls and hand-cut flowers and butterflies.

I made a little "pocket" with the Kaisercraft Sweet Nothings Sincerely paper, and adhered this to the back of the cage. The journaling tag is then hidden inside this "pocket".

Thanks so much for dropping by! :)
