Happy 40th Birthday Kay

Today is an awesome day, why?  Because 40 years ago today my friend Kay was born and that is definitely worth celebrating, which is exactly what us girls on the SBS DT have done using this fab image Betty drew up specially.

I’ve chosen to make a tag for Kay using the current sketch over at Sketch Saturday.  Rather than using paper for the rectangular element I decided to try my new Mega Flakes and FlitterGlu from IndigoBlu and I think it turned out looking great. 

I took the great sentiment Betty did up and added it to the back of the tag and embossed it in gold.

With all the gold elements I’m entering this in Inkspirational’s current challenge.  As I’ve also got a whole lot of embossing I’m also linking it up at Crafting By Design.
