Modified:

I've gotten a lot of new stamps this month and loving all of them. Ryn (Designs By Ryn) came out with 2 new plates of hummingbirds... I got them on Friday and immediately started stamping and creating silhouette images to cut with my electronic cutter... no fussy cutting - BIG GRIN 

I did the same thing with my newest Altenew stamp sets this one being Peony Scrolls set.

The rubber stamp quote and sentiment on the inside is by Quietfire Design  

 ("Twirl & Enjoy" 3pce set); ("We Cannot Tell..." 2pce companion set)

And the Happy Birthday die is available at Elizabeth Craft Designs and Quietfire Design

inside of card

Side folded my white cardstock, the front only being 4"w and layered another piece of the same white cardstock over top to create a 7"w card

Stamped the houses (Da Vinci's "Armenia" and "Highland Cluster") a couple times using Distress "Pumice Stone". Sponged some Distress "Tumbled Glass" around the upper edges.

The hummingbird (set #2) was eCut from 90# cold press watercolor paper, stamped with Versamark and embossed with white embossing powder, painted with QoR watercolors adding some Perfect Pearls "Perfect Pearls" liquid as the watering medium.

The flowers and leaves were eCut from white cardstock, stamped with Versafine Black Onyx and clear embossed. Also painted with the QoR watercolors.

Everything was adhered to card to create the scene.

I then had this bare triangle and decided to eCut the word "Smile" in a triangular shape, applied glue and sprinkled with Stickles dry glitter in "Yellow" and "Thistle".

On the inside - left side - I adhered some Sari ribbon to mimic a gift wrapped present. Adhered a bow using hot glue and adhered a peony also with the hot glue.

Stamped the "Enjoy Your Day" using the Black Onyx.

Inside right side - I applied Sookwang tape to white cardstock and die cut (ps it did need the help of my x-acto knife in some areas...) then sprinkled with the yellow and thistle glitter. Adhered to inside of card.

Adhered more of the peony flower and leaf.

Stamped the "My Friend" part of the companion set, using the black onyx.
