STEP-BY-STEP How-TO INSTRUCTIONS
All pieces are from Create a Critter 2 cartridge.
Cut 2 Wreath shadows in ivory at 5" width. Cut 1 each of the other three layers at a height 4.75". The bird was cut at a 2.5" height. Keep the dark green leaf cutouts for later use. Ink all edges lightly.

Layer your 3 wreaths together and glue.
Assemble your bird. I tucked a little piece of yellow under the beak cutout so his beak was yellow, but his other features were black and red.
Gather dark green leaf cut outs. Fold them in half lengthwise and attach at various place on the wreath at shown. I used small cut pieces of adhesive tape. Run ivory twin through the button holes and knot at the back. Use adhesive dots to attach buttons near the leaves.
Stamp sentiment and cut out as show. Attach bird, bow and sentiment to the card to finish assembly.
