Happy Tuesday. I made this for today's tea potter challenge and colour challenge. Image was stamped with memento ink and clear embossed. coloured with copic markers. Stamped over top with sanded backgrounder using going grey ink. sponged around edges with blue bayou ink. Stamped hummingbird with groovy guava. Cut out hummingbird. sponged edges with ruby red ink and old olive. Imade the background paper using four different designer papers, cut into strips. Matted with guava and turquoise papers. Sewed around edges. Matted image panel, sewing edge. Popped up bird. Added liquid pearls to flower centres. Attached the bow. Assembled card.
This card will be sent to Wendy -She is a cousin to fellow SCSr Melissa (webzmacs).
Thanks for looking,
Hugs..Pat

Beautiful card for Wendy! I really like the way you stamped the background image over top, and the sponging (and stitching) look fabulous! Perfect sponging on the hummingbird, too, he's awesome!
