Hummingbird

Hello!

Not long to the weekend - thankfully.  I hope your week has gone well.  I haven't had much time to craft this week but wanted to play along with a few challenges and made this very simple card:




I heat embossed this beautiful hummingbird stamp from Uniko Studio in a green/gold powder and combined it with a bud from Altenew's Magnolia set.  The panel is die cut using Lawn Fawn's stitched squares and framed with some dull gold cardstock.  I gold embossed a sentiment inside saying 'Especially For You'.

I will link up at CASology where the cue card is Tropical as I always associate hummingbirds with tropical places.  I will also play along at Simon's Wednesday Challenge - Things that Fly and at Virginia's View Embossing Challenge.

I hope you like it :)

Thanks for stopping by,

Sarah x

    So shimmery and beautiful. Tropical makes me think of hummingbirds and butterflies too. Wonder if there are any around that are as sparkly as your hummingbird??
