November Tag: In Life's Garden Love is the Brightest Bloom

I am trying to keep up with the monthly challenges over on Tag It Tuesday, this is my offering for November.  I managed to complete it before the end of the month for a change.
The four prompts this month were: Reuse and old greeting card, Add a Key, Put a Bird on it and Use thread or fibres I included all four.
Using the largest nested dome tag die from Claritystamp, cut a tag from a piece of mixed media card.

Add a piece of brayer/gel plate clean up paper, seal and trim excess.
Stamp the Clarity New Design Club House Martin (#112) in Crimson Red Versafine ink and heat emboss with clear powder.
Cut a slit into the tag below the head and right wing of the bird. Slip the small card off the front of an anniversary card through the slit and glue it into place.
Colour the bird with Faber-Castell Big Brush markers, blended out with a Pergamano blending pen and nibs.
Loop a double length of twine through the hole at the top of the tag and cut the ends to length.
Stamp and emboss the key from the Dee’s New Friends ‘Clarity’ A6 stamp set in the same manner as the bird.
To finish, colour the key in the same way as the bird too.
