My mom’s favorite bird is the hummingbird. She feeds them, has glass ones hanging, on coffee mugs, and sitting on a shelf. Whenever we see anything with the dainty birds, we get it for her. Naturally, with her birthday just around the corner, I used the Stampin’ Up! Touch of Ink Stamp Set to make a beautiful handmade hummingbird card for her.
The images in the set (butterfly, flowers, stems & leaves, leaf, and bird) have an outline image and a solid image for fill. Next time, I’ll use the solid images. I used Stampin’Stampin’ Blends to color, blend, and shade for my mother’s handmade birthday card.
After coloring the hummingbird, I trimmed him with Paper Snips. They are easy to hold and to cut out images like a pro.
The patterned paper is from the January-June 2021 Stampin’ Up! Mini Catalog that can be viewed here. The brushstrokes of white paint provide a bit of shabby chic my mom will love.

Shelly, such a beautiful card. Love seeing all your incredible cards.
Thank you! I’ll have to make more. 🙂
Beautiful hummingbird…the ribbon is lovely. I’ would love to know the secret of making the ribbon so pretty!
Your mom is truly blessed!
The secret is not to let your ribbon get twisted and to play with it – fluff and tighten and repeat until pretty.
Where did the red print dsp come from? I love it!
