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/

When I see a Cardinal I can hear my step-father's words. "Baby, I always loved those red birds". This is a card design he would love. He is 84 years old now. My mother-in-law would love this card as well. Well, gosh, who doesn't love flowers and birds!? Beautifully crafted as always Kittie.
