Elements Of Style Hummingbird


I have a new little hummingbird friend that comes to my kitchen window everyday to enjoy my hanging basket. I tried to use some of the colors I see in him/her? Sometimes it just hovers there and looks at me. So cute!!
I used markers on the image and hummingbird (this was cut out and popped up). The card base is the new Presto Patterns dp that I used the Vanilla smooch spritz on and then while it was still wet, I used my aquapainter dipped in Pretty In Pink re-inker and wiped it around with a paper towel. It looks really pretty and shimmery up close.
