Tim Holtz bird cage and pine cone dies


I really can't make these Pine Cones. but any way, here is Tim's Bird Cage Die, and the Pine Cone Die. I used Distress stains on the tag, White and Broken China. and while still wet sprayed glimmer mist over the tag. Then I dried it off... the Bird cage was done using Crackle paint and a dab of alcohol ink in the cracks, the bird was painted using the new distress colours..
I found some gorgeous pearl fringing and stuck it to the bottom, The stars by Stampington were white embossed..
