Postal SPLAT!!

Ok here is a real quickie card made for SMUDGY ANTICS weekly challenge, this week it is SPLAT.
I knew I was going to do this card, but my hubby has an envelope of bullet hole decals, and we were hoping to find them, as I was going to use a few on the card. He can't remember where he put them. so I decided not to make a card, and then later on tonight I said "WHY THE HELL NOT?!" LOL So I did everything I planned to do except for the bullet hole decals, and then I remembered the most IMPORTANT part of the challenge...::smackin' self::: DOH!! I had to use a SMEARED INK image. well none of the images I have go with this sentiment, and then I thought about the birds, and how mail carriers see them all day (and sometimes get pooped on by them) and how the post offices I have worked in, and the one hubs currently works in have always had bird nests in places all over the place. That is why I added the 2 little dead birds.

All card stock by STAMPIN' UP, printed blood splatter paper by MARTHA STEWART(for EK Success)
Sentiment (Guns don't kill people. Postal workers kill people.) by VIVA LASVEGAS STAMPS.
RIP Birdy image by SMEARED INK (re-sized)
Diamond glaze by JUDIKINS over all the splattered blood. Misc. used US Postal stamps and mosaic tiles used in the corners.
