Ink the edges brown and evenly space 5 of the pickets across the card, with the bases even with the card bottom. Foam tape 4 more pickets over the spaces in between the first pickets.

Zot™ the ends of a 1 ½” length of green twine to the top back of the rectangle and foam tape the sign to the fence as shown. Stamp the bird onto white cardstock.

Cut out the bird, omitting the branch, and glue above the fence, as shown.Inside: Emboss 4 ½”x2 ¾” Moka suede paper and glue to the card center. Cut the remaining embossed kraft cardstock strip to 5 ¾” long and glue across the bottom of the rectangle. Write or print “and fly!” on blue Artful Watercolor paper and cut to 2 ½”x1 ½” long.
