Hummingbird Hello

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have a card using the Hummingbird Thanks stamp set along with the Tic Tac Toe die, Hello Friend die and also using some Mini Action Wobblers to make the hummingbirds move.

To begin my card today, I stamped out my hummingbirds from the Hummingbirds Thanks stamp set and coloured them in with Copic Markers. I used a Yellow, Green and Aqua colour scheme and coloured the hummingbirds accordingly. Once they were coloured, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I then took out my Mini Action Wobblers and cut off some of the excess plastic to make it fit behind my hummingbirds. Once I cut off the excess I went ahead and adhered them behind my hummingbird images. I then set them off to the side to work on the rest of my card.

Copic Markers used: BG11, BG23, BG49 / W00, W0, W3 / Y11, Y35, Y38 / YG21, YG23, YG17

Next up, I took the Tic Tac Toe die and cut it out of some white cardstock. I then adhered thin strips of foam tape onto the back and set it off to the side also. Next, I took a piece of watercolour cardstock and ink blended some Distress Inks over it. I used Peacock Feathers, then Twisted Citron and Mustard Seed on top to create a nice blend. I then flicked some water on the background to create a splattered look and dried it off with a heat tool. Then I used the We R Memory Keepers Geometric Embossing Folder to emboss my distress inked piece. Once that was run through my Big Shot Machine I went ahead and adhered my Tic Tac Toe die on top in the centre. Next up, I used the Hello Friend Script die cut, added some Stick It adhesive on the back of some white cardstock and cut the ‘Hello’ word out three times. Then, I adhered them all together and used some grey Copic Markers to add a little shading on the bottom of the word.

Next up, I went ahead and adhered my two hummingbirds on their action wobblers onto opposite corners of my card, then adhered the ‘Hello’ word in the centre of the card. Lastly, I adhered some Clear Droplets in both 4mm and 6mm around my card and adhered my panel onto a top folding card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you were inspired and I’ll catch you next time.
