Hello everyone: One of the most amazing birds that come to my back yard feeders are the Hummingbirds. These little winged jewels are, in my view, some of the strongest, most resilient and incredibly beautiful birds in the world and they will arriving up here in North West Indiana in late April so for now, here's a card picturing the Ruby Throated Humming Bird for your viewing pleasure.
This image is from a 2010 Flourishes set called "Humming Along" (discontinued). The images on this set are gorgeous.
I stamped them on a piece of Strathmore watercolor paper with Versafine black ink and clear heat embossed them, then I water colored them with Sakura Koi watercolors and SU markers.
The sentiment is from an Altenew set called "Moments in Time".
****************************************************************
Here is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.
The sentiment is from another retired Flourishes set called "Dahlias", the images from the "Humming Along" set.
I would like to play along with the following challenges.

Hugs from Maria.

I love this beautiful card and your coloring is awesome, Maria. The hummingbird is so real looking and the sentiments so sweet. Enjoy your day!
Goodness, that hummingbird is gorgeous, inside and out! Coloring them intimidates me, but you did a beautiful job. I've been seeing a few here in the garden. We do have some year round residents, but others are showing up, as well. Beautiful card, Maria!
Gorgeous! I'm always wow'd by your coloring, Maria. Such a sweet card!
Beautifully done. You've got the angle of the bird perfect as he comes in for his approach.
I'm such a fan of hummingbirds and adore your pretty presentation!
This is absolutely gorgeous. I love the images and the way you have placed and colored them so beautifully. Wonderful work! Thanks for joining us at ATCAS!
My Grandpa used to watch the birds and expected these cuties on Mother's Day in our area. Beautiful little image and this style card perfect for many occasions!
