Field Notes

 I recently bought a few packages of Ephemera when they were on sale at JoAnns, I was pretty excited to try and use some of them on a card.  Today I went with a masculine card I needed.  I didn't realize until I was getting ready to post that I never put a sentiment on this card but it is a Birthday card.

I used washi tape on the upper right corner and hand stitching on the left side of the tag.  I liked this mushroom and thought the bug matched the coloring well.


  • Tim Holtz - Field Notes Ephemera 94051, Collector Layers 93553 and Rose collection washi tape
  • Basic Grey - Oxford paper
  • Hand stitching and inking on the tag


I was pretty happy with the way this turned out, I hope he likes it too.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today, Have a wonderful week ahead!

This is FUN! I love the hand stitching, what a great accent! Sometimes I make cards without sentiments, you can always add one later. I like the items you used!

This is a wonderful masculine card. You are reminding me that I need to make some for my stash box. I'm not too crazy about makeing masculine cards... So I tend to forget making them.

OMG, I love mushrooms and was looking at my PP mushroom set yesterday. So many stamps I long to color, but never enough time! This looks amazing, Connie, and I do not miss the sentiment at all. It's perfect!!
