Here is my DT card I made for it.
I wanted to use my new humming bird Stamps so I thought about how I could make it a bit different!
I got a piece of black card and stamped the large and small humming bird and some of the flowers large and small in versamark.
I then used mica powders in a variety of colours and brushed these over.
Once I had got this topper I needed to think about the background. I matted and layered it on to purple and jade green card.
The base card which is white i decided to use the humming bird to create a backing paper.
I used my splodgemat to create an ink pad and put 4 colours of distress inks on to the mat. I then stamped the humming bird into this ink and then created a background of humming birds.
I also used a blending tool and ink off the splodgemat through sequin waste to add to the background
Once I had got my card and topper I assembled it and added a piece of narrow ribbon and some clear dewdrops to the corners of the topper and on the ribbon.
I was pretty pleased with the final card. And I hope you like it too.
Let's see you have a go at the challenge and remember......
......Anything Goes!!!!
Happy Crafting
