Missoni Tag Upcycle Thirfty Birthday Greeting Card


Today I'm sharing with you a card that I used a tag from a Missoni for Target tote bag.  I loved the pattern on the tag, so I decided to use it on a card.

This card also qualifies for the color challenge over at Splitcoaststampers CC350 which is Blushing Bride, Pear Pizazz, and Marina Mist.  I don't have Blushing Bride or Marina Mist, so I used Baja Breeze and Blush Blossom.
 I stamped the base of the card with the rose from Fifth Avenue Floral and used Baja Breeze ink.
 I used the sentiment from Whimsical Words, and the wide oval punch to cut out the birthday greeting.
 I used the eyelet border punch for two additional layers.
Here is another final look at the card.  What will you do to make your stamping/scrapping dollar stretch?
