Something to crow about

As birds go...I do not find the crow to be an attractive bird.  It is rather a scavenger.  Paulette at TLC has this image and sentiment as a set.  I actually find this image of the crow to be somewhat cute.

What a very smart card Lisa Lynn - the black/white with the touches of brown is very striking. The sentiment and image work so well together and your layout is very attractive. A great unisex Congratulations card. Ingrid xx (OSAAT Team).
