Used Sizzix Tim Holtz Caged Bird die.
Used Tim Holtz core'dinations pine needle cardstock for base. I really like the blue green look to this cardstock and how it complemented the Tim Holtz Paper Stash Vintage Shabby paper layer. For the Bird I used core'dinations broken china and some scraps of music scrapbook paper. Used core'dinations black soot for the Bird Cage.
Used Tim Holtz sander on the Bird Cage.
Used Tim Holtz Distress Inks on the Bird.
Used a small music note punch that I have had for long time.
