After cutting out the body, I stamped snowflakes in white ink, how well you can see them depends on the light, at some angles they are bright white and at others they are very subtle. I had a heck of a job to get them to show in the photo! Next I added some faux stitching with a white pen and stuck on a wing with foam pads.
The breast and sentiment are Papermania, from the Boofle Christmas range, I thought the addition of tartan would make this card perfect to give a Scottish twist to my oversees cards. All I needed to finish off were a beak and googly eye.
All in all a simple card but I think it's kinda fun!
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -

Raise the Bar - #111 - things with wings
Charisma Cards - #36 - shaped cards
