Amazing Birthday Trio


I have always liked "Pretty Amazing" so I paired it with the birthday sentiment from "Upsy Daisy" to make some birthday cards. I used the same elements and mixed them up a bit.

I masked the huming bird and then stamped the flower on Barely Banana and Rocked and Rolled it in Apricot Appeal. I like how these masked images turned out. I used my Watercolor Wonder Crayons and my H2O painter to paint the humming bird using Taken with Teal and Cameo Coral. On one image I also painted the background with Bashful & Bordering Blue. I used my Cuttlebug "Stylized Flower" folder to emboss Taken with Teal. I trimmed and matted with Basic Black. I found the cute MM yellow flower brads to accent the sentiment. I think they go great with the image. The black tricot ribbon is from Ofray at Wal-mart. I am using up my stash so well; I used up all my tape runner...ugh! I hope they have some in stock on Monday when I can get to the store...

Until Later ...Happy Stamping!

  3. Oh, I like those, Kathy. I love your coloring on the hummingbird. I struggle with coloring that little guy because I want him to look great - you did that!
