This is my first experience using a PTI impression plate and I love the effect! Unfortunately, I discovered that the embossing pad kit I got from them differed from the one used in the tutorial and listed on the site. It is in the midst of investigation by PTI's wonderful customer service (Addendum: The manufacturer changed the sizes without notifying PTI. Apparently, it shouldn't affect anything.). The plate curved a bit after running it through my Cuttlebug and I was told that this was normal.
I blended some distress ink over the impressed woodgrain image.
I die-cut the tag twice and then cut and stamped the calendar and sentiment on the overlay. I circled the 17 for my husband's birthday. I used the Big Bite and a couple eyelets on the ends of the tag.
