Newton’s Nook May Release – Day 3

Card tutorial 2 Minutes

Oh my goodness, this week is just chugging along. I’m excited to share today’s reveal and a fun interactive card idea for you to try out!

Today we’re sharing Hummingbird and the coordinating dies. Isn’t it beautiful??? I love it and it was so fun to color!

My card today has a simple but so fun interactive element – an action wobble so you can make the hummingbird flutter.

To create this card, I started by stamping, coloring and die cutting my hummingbird images. Then I grabbed those new circle frames dies and cut out a circle. I used the clouds stencil with some bright blue dye ink and a blending brush.

Now for assembly, I started by trimming a white panel down to 4×5.25 and stamped my sentiment on the bottom right. Then I popped it on a card base with foam tape. I popped up the stenciled panel with foam tape as well and positioned my images. The flowers are popped up with foam squares and the hummingbird is attached with an action wobbler.

For simple finishing touches on this card, I used black glaze pen on the hummingbird eye and the stamen of the flowers. Then I used Wink of Stella glitter brush pen to the hummingbird. I thought this was a perfect match for the sheen they always seem to have.
