Boys and String.. with a sick Bird

                                                  Hello Everyone....

Have a couple of new cards for you today and no story........

Now how can that be...I've always got something to say!!!
........................................................................................

.......................................................................................

Nup!!....nothing there.

I have only had disasters in my craft area..binned stuff...cursed a bit....tried again...stamped the card up side down.....wasted time..cleaned up a bit....wandered around.....then...................................................

















                                                          BAM...
Got smacked in the face by this gorgeous creature....


Aint he gorgeous....meet "Victor the Vulture" ...lol..I just love him..
He was a freebie from GTC Crafty Corner.

He looked so miserable, just had to use him for a get well card. The owl paper I used yesterday, well this is from the same place I think, but with pine trees and pine cones.

A few layers using old manilla folders, and tried to make each layer merge in with the one before. Made him a branch to sit on with a twig out of my garden.
PC sentiment.....The inside is the same, I didnt photograph it.Coloured with pencils. Added a bit of that puff material paint around his neck, and above his nose.
Wrapped a bit of string around the edge, tied a knot, and theres "VICTOR".

Hope you enjoy, and will see you tomorrow [or even later today]

Entering this little, sad guy at, do it with digis   [make a boy/man card
