Tag # 18 - Baby boy


A lovely young man at work and his wife have just become very proud parents of a lovely little boy just before Christmas. So my entry for the Crafty Boots challenge -New Beginnings is this tag which highlights the date in the background with some special words from my Dark Room door set in the top left.

I used faded jeans, stormy skies, gathered twigs, tumbled glass and walnut stain distress inks.

Using my Tim Holtz Regal Crest die twice I cut some patterned paper and plain before inking and mountiing them.

Thanks for stopping by.
