The Crafty Crow is simply the best for awesome awesome crafts gathered from all over the world wide web… Please pop over and say hello… Surprise her with a heap of visitors, I would love to make her weekend!!!
We just wanted to wish you a brilliant blog birthday…
We thought we would celebrate by whipping up a crafty crow in se7en + 1 steps:
- Gather your gear…
- Fold your card in half and cut out a semi-circle…
- Punch two holes in your card… one for the beak and one for the legs…
- Cut a bit off your pipe cleaner and fold the two pieces in half…
- Thread your pipe cleaner through the punch-homes and give them a twist…
- And twist those feet…
- Snip out a wedge to make a tale and pop an eye onto your bird… googly eye or marker – whatever works!!!
- Use some of your off cut card to make some wings…
And your crow is good to go…
And a crafty celebration would not be complete without an afternoon spent painting – crows of course!!!
Here’s A Crow filled gallery for you!!!
An afternoon well spent!!!
And still my favorite crow of all time:
