Christmas is over and I can now share the gift I designed for my siblings.

I designed this birthday reminder because throughout the year inevitably someone calls to confirm or inquiry about a birthday.

The photo is a little grainy. I swiped it from my sister-in-law’s thank you text. I hadn’t quite finished the one for my home.

I used Silhouette Design #18658 “Swirls” and a rectangle drawn in my Silhouette software to create the base. I used a variety of mixed media pastes from Art Alchemy to create the metal affect on the Silhouette chipboard. I used Silhouette Design #16857 “Circle Tag” and merged the family member’s information onto the tag.

Using jump rings from my jewelry supplies, I attached each tag by family group. The last tag as a bead charm I created to weight the row and stop the tags from flipping around.

I’ll be posting a tutorial on my blog soon.
