I know it's still winter and it's still cold outside but
this card makes me think of spring and Mother's Day
weekend. The past few years I've gone to my parent's
house Mother's Day weekend. My mom loves to
feed the birds. She puts two hummingbird feeders
on their front porch. I have never seen so many
hummingbirds anywhere else. There will be
8-10 hummingbirds feeding at one time. They
chase each other away. Mom & I sit there and watch
them for a long time — if it's nice enough we sit outside
and they will still come and eat. It is so cool to watch.
This card was designed by Windy Ellard — I received
it from her in a swap I participated in.
The card base is Blackberry Bliss.
She added a piece of the 5/8" Striped Cotton Ribbon — Blackberry Bliss
across the center of the card. Next is a layer of Pool Party and
then Very Vanilla. There is lots of texture looks with the
Timeless Textures stamp set. The images are stamped with
Wisteria Wonder, Blackberry Bliss and Pool Party inks
The hummingbird is from Picture Perfect stamp set.
The hummingbird is also stamped with Blackberry Bliss,
Wisteria Wonder and Pool Party inks and then cut out
with Paper Snips. Use dimensionals to pop the hummingbird
up. Stamp the words with Blackberry Bliss ink.
I love when a card reminds me of such great memories.
Now I'm looking forward to Mother's Day weekend,
even if it is a long way off.
