Back with Another Hummingbird


Welcome!  I just had to make another card with Flourishes Humming Along stamp set. For my other Hummingbird card click here.  This set was illustrated by Marcella Hawley and is one of my favorites.  This time I wanted to feature the Honeysuckle stamp (stamped with Memento Espresso Truffle) along with the Hummingbird (stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black) .   The images were colored with Copics and some Wink of Stella added to the bird for iridescence. Finished with a Yellow Satin ribbon and a green CS layer and Coral Card Base. I hope we will have a lot of Hummers stopping by to say Hello.

Challenges:
Fusion Card Challenge: Sweet Orange Blossoms. I used the photo inspiration for this card.







Have a great day! I love reading your comments. Theresa

Humming Along


Hello! Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers......you are all so Special!   I have ben playing with an old stamp set from Flourishes called Humming Along. I was inspired by the challenge at Fusion for both the theme, colors and layout.   I found a "tag" or whatever it is framed with metal in my stash.  I stamped honeysuckles with Memento Espresso Truffle ink on the frame and colored with Copics.  I stamped 2 Hummingbirds with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics and added some Wink of Stella and Stardust Pen to give some shine and iridescence to the birds.  Hope you can see that. Attached the frame with orange satin ribbon and placed this on an orange card base but only showed the orange on the fold side.  The sentiment is from Power Poppy Hens and Chicks by Marcella Hawley who was also the illustrator of the Flourishes stamps.

I love Hummingbirds and have seen one already in our gardens.   Time to get more feeders out.

Challenges:
Fusion Card Challenge: Sweet Orange Blossoms. I used the sketch and photo inspiration shown left.
Tuesday Throwdown: Challenge 292 Welcome Spring.  Hummingbirds are a sign that spring has arrived.



Have a great day! I love reading your comments. Theresa
