I made this for the TLC379 to distress something on our project. I also made this card to match a birdhouse that I painted and decorated. I have a picture of the birdhouse and card together here: Birdhouse Birthday Set by kittie747 at Splitcoaststampers
I used a sponge to distress th edges and a small border of the surface of the bird. I Aged Mahogany to tone down the bright red of the bird. My blog: http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kittiekraft/

I love the RED of course, but this really makes me think of the cute new commercial where the birds (cardinals) build a house!

WOW! Another fabulous creation! Love the colors and all of the fabulous punches. I always wonder how you get everything to stick where you want it to...I have a feeling that I'd have one huge mess if I tried to copy. Love looking at your gallery!
