Hummingbird

 I recently purchased this cute little hummingbird.  I have a hummingbird feeder right outside the window, so whenever I am on my computer half the time I am distracted by the antics these little guys have outside my window.  When I saw this die I just had to have it. Of course you have to have a pretty blossom to got with it :)


  • Memory Box - Layered Hummingbird die, colored w/inks
  • Gemini - Double sided Dahlia die
  • Park Lane - Old world Paper
  • Hot off the press - 63 Thin line border stickers
  • Starform - Happy Birthday silver sticker, colored w/ gold marker


I would like to share my card today with the following challenges:

NBUS Never before Used Schtuff ( Hummingbird die)

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

I can see why you needed this hummingbird die to come home with you. It is adorable! Just perfect for sipping nectar out of that big bloom.

You colored that hummingbird beautifully and the flower is great too. It is wonderful when real nature inspires our card making. I am sure seeing those hummingbirds right outside your window is a comforting feeling.

Beautiful card design, and a sweet little hummingbird. My mother loved sitting on the back porch, watching the hummingbirds come and go. I miss those days sitting with her. Thanks for sharing your lovely card with us at The Beautiful Blossoms Challenge. We look forward to seeing more of your designs soon.

Not only is that such a pretty little hummingbird and beautifully colored, but the flower is gorgeous, too! We have Anna hummingbirds that stay all winter. When there are no flowers they eat bugs and sip tree pitch for energy. I love that!

Besides card art, this is another thing we share, Connie. I, too, have feeders and one is right outside my Playhouse window. Do you have a hummingbird swing? It's the cutest when they sit on it; well, usually just one male commandeers it, and he just sits there while I talk to him. The Mister thinks I'm nuts, but I swear he thinks he's a pet. We are lucky to have them all year long in California.

Sorry, I get all gushy about hummers and I just love your new little die and your perfect patterning. I will have to check him out! And your background and beautiful flower are so striking! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! (Sorry for the late visit.) Hugs, Darnell
