Distressed Bird

This card was made for my Stamp Club last week. I am not really much for distressing as I love clean lines however, they have been asking me 'how to' distress. I'm not a bird fan at all but this bird from the Always set in the new catalogue got me.

I will be back later tonight with the winner from my blog contest giveaway for the Riley stamps. I have the entries on my computer at home and I'm at work. I meant to do it last night but instead I went to bed very early.
