Instructions:

2. Poke holes 1/8 “ apart and  1/8” from all the edges on all the pieces. This gives the figures a country look. Do this by laying the pieces of cardstock onto craft foam or on a folded towel und sticking the needle through the card.
3. Glue the centers onto the flowers and the wings onto the birds.
4. Using the hole punch, punch out an eye for each bird.
