One of my goals this year is to send out birthday cards to friends and family. I always start off with the best of intentions but before you know it, everyone's birthday has passed!
This card is totally not my normal style but I saw it on Jackie Topa's blog and loved how it used the new tag punch from the Occasions mini. It's great when a punch has more than one use and this card shows that.
I used my brayer to ink the sky, stamped and cut out the flowers. Used my bigshot for the leaves and of course the tag punch for the fence posts. All you do is punch out however many posts you're going to need and adhere it to a strip of cardstock, very easy!

I got the tag punch just so I could copy Jackie's fence. Love your card and admire your goal to send the birthday cards. I'm trying that too, but I've already missed one since I started!
