The hummingbird is a Terry Medaris image. I stamped it with Versamark onto a picture from a gardening/outdoors type of catalog (If you look closely, you might see part of a frog statue). I then heat embossed with gold embossing powder and cut around the image. This technique is called "Faux Cloisonne" and I thought it would be interesting with this image.
Patterned paper from Lasting Impressions and Scrapping Sports and More are used for the panels of this card, along with some shiny gold cardstock.
To put some finishing touches on the card, I used a flower from Michael's Recollection line and a bow. I didn't want to detract from the image too very much.

I do see the frog and I think those might be Daffodils at the bottom. You are ever so clever. The picture that you stamped on worked perfectly. I love cloisonne. I can't stop gushing. Thanks for sharing and giving me a great big smile.
