Seems like it's been forever since I've played in the challenges, so today I killed two birds with one stone... or combined two challenges in one card. When I saw the ways to use it challenge, I knew I wanted to try die cutting a soda can. I also used this week's sketch challenge. After cutting open a Mountain Dew can and flattening it, I used alcohol inks for polished stone on the inside of the can and then ran it through my cuttlebug with a nestabilities bird die. The wing is made with the smallest die from dp, but I cut off the beak. I used a piercing tool to make a hole for the brad and button holes.

There is so much creativity to this card I can't believe it! You are the queen of "Never Say No" when it comes to a CHALLENGE! It's sooooo gorgeous! But you might cut the mailman with your Mountain Dew Bird so you better hand deliver this beauty, hee!
