Hugs and Prayers Black and White

This card I came up with on my own. I first measured how much of the black paper I wanted and mine is 4 1/4 by 3. Then tick marked some areas so I know where the hummingbird needed to go. Then I stamped the images and let dry because the white ink I used was a Stampin' Up! craft which smears pretty easy. So while I waited I embossed the card. Then I cut to a point on the black piece then cut out the hummingbird so it looked like it is flying into the flower.

Window Pane

This wooden panel idea in the background came from this video: click here . You could play with the color but I thought this was neat for a manly card or the look of a wood floor or like mine the side of house. Very fun technique.

Hugs and Prayers Colorful

I got the idea for this from this website: click here . Hers is a little different because she can blend the ink really well for the background. But I tried and it didn't come out too bad. This is my favorite card because it is out of my box with blending as best as I can and playing with a different techniques.
