Sent a little "tweet" someone's way with this Rustic Bird Card from Martha Stewart Crafts.  With some basic card making supplies, you can create this card and many more to send as birthday greetings or just because.  Create several and bundle them together to create a cute gift for someone who loves sending cards!
