Crow Bar Birthday!

  It is rainy and dreary today and I need to have a little fun!  This card really made me chuckle!  I saw the Crowbar print by Will Bullas in one of our local restaurants and had to try and make it into a card.   Here is the inspiration!  What a hoot!
I used the Glasses Sizzix die for the martini and wine glasses!  They are made of acetate and edged in gold.  I have decorative scissors that I used to give my crows a little texture.  My card fits in a business sized envelope!  This card might not be something to "crow" about but I like it anyway!  Snort, snort...I couldn't resist!!

    You won't believe how easy they are! You take a circle die for the head - use your decorative scissors to give it texture. My scissors are the ones that look like torn paper. The body is an oval that I cut in half. The beak is a 1 inch square that you round the corners and then cut on the diagnol. I cut away 2 little ovals to make it look more like a beak. The crows arms are SU's bird punch that I just used the decorative scissors to cut away the head. Let me know if you have any questions!

    That punch is the sizzix bird punch. The front of the punch is a yellow bird- I just made mine into a crow...
