FLYING BY


 I've been practising with the Picture Perfect set and aligning this hummingbird.  The bird has four stamps to give it dimension .  I must admit its not the easiest thing to do but when it works its so satisfying.  This little fellow is flying in for the Less is More Challenge who have asked for a one layer card with the theme At Sea.  Very tentative link but my bird is all At Sea because he can't find a flower!

  I've used one of the background stamps from Painter's Palette for the dots round the edge in Mint Macaron.  The bird has been stamped in Basic Gray with just a touch of Mint Macaron at his throat and the base of his wing.  A touch of Wink of Stella makes him sparkle just a little.  The Sentiment is from Thankful Thoughts.

You can find the challenge here if you want to play along
