Stash used was Wild Honey, Crushed Olive, Brushed Corduroy, Broken China, Tea Dye distress inks. Tea Dye embossing powder. Pinecone leaves from Sizzix die (have since bought the bird on a branch die for the crop but its still unused in the box!), bird and wing are the from Birdcage die. For the background I used Couture Creations World Map embossing folder with the Numbers reflections stamp inked with Jet Black Archival Ink. To keep with my British theme I used the Inkylicious Union Jack 2 part – Keep Calm and Carry On stamp and the Artemio - London Landscape stamp. Metal crown is from one of T!ms metal sets. To finish the tag I used a piece of muslin died with Broken China and Wild Honey distress stains, a vintage lace diecut inked with Mustard Seed and Vintage Photo and then the lovely little soldier you see standing in the bottom right hand corner is cut out from a ribbon.
Thanks for looking :) Off to Tennis from Solihull

Such a great tag. All the details had me looking around. I love that sentiment, have it on a teapot and a stamp at home. Great way you put part of it on his wing...Fun.
So glad you didn't use red. Love this tag just as it is. Hugs Mrs A.
