I'm Here For You
Hello bloggers! Back to the background stash for the start of today's card. I cut the Bird Bath out of slate grey card and used Weathered Wood distress ink to shade it. I seated the birdbath to the left side of the circle and added greenery around the bottom and side. I cut several pink flowers and added them as well. I used a bit of the leftover pixied card and cut two hummingbirds out of it. I added them around the bird bath. I cut the I'm Here For You sentiment in black and glued it to the top centre of the card. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
This design has feeling. The sentiment is just so very special, if only we had it to reach for when the world was closed. The bird bath/font/planter and this sentiment will be the first craft treats I'll have if my craft hobby comes alive again that's for sure. Love and health to everyone xxx
Hello Sue What a lovely scene this card is you almost feel you are walking through this peaceful picture. I hope everyone is keeping well and take care.
Morning Sue - what a beautiful card, full of the nature that we all need in our busy lives. Love the way the flowers branch around the circle to enclose the scene. Gorgeous! Colleen xx
Good morning Sue. A gorgeous hummingbird card. The bird bath and feeders in my garden are so busy now with all the new families visiting, especially the blue tits. Beautiful to watch xx
A lovely card, has a feel good factor about it somehow. The bird bath is lovely and the birds are so lifelike. Everything together creates a beautiful scene.
Good Morning Sue. Now this is right up my street. I love it. Reminds me of my own birdbath in our garden of which I get much pleasure from early on a morning while I am posting on my favourite blog. I Love everything about it Sue. Thank you. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds Stay safe and well everyone 🙏.
