Blackbird Halloween ATC Swap

I have seen so many black glittery and shiny Halloween embellishments out already and I'm just dying to make a few ATC with my goodies.

Please send TWO Halloween ATC's to your partner.

1st card: read directions 2nd card: Halloween - senders choice

Card #1 must have a black bird and a bird cage somewhere on it. Layers are always a nice effect and using a few techniques. Please pick "TWO" techniques from the list for the 1st card:

Torn paper, Distressed (maybe sanded) paper, Antiqued (use paint or ink on an element, like a flower etc.), Glimmer mist, Paint the edges, Paper foil, Blotched paint(can achieve this with watery paint and a tooth brush), Embossing, Flocking, Misc elements like a feather,fibers or yarn, Small brads or other elements, Glossy or Crackle glaze ( you can make a glaze from white glue and a little water), Raise Emboss a pattern.

Please take some time and effort and make your partner a really nice set of ATC's. If you wish send a few Halloween items to brighten up your partners day! :)
