I am sharing a mix of current and upcoming products again. The Thoughtful Expressions stamp set is carrying over without the layering Dies that were a bundle. But the stamp set is gorgeous and has the beautiful hummingbird. This is paired with some new Designer Series Paper.
Stamps
The Thoughtful Expressions stamp set has great floral stamps, sentiments, and this beautiful hummingbird. I love hummingbirds and have several feeders hoping to see them often. My hummingbird here may not look totally real as I was trying to somewhat match him to the papers. I think it is ok except for the red neck. But I could not leave that part off.
The images are all stamped with Memento Black Ink and then colored with Stampin’ Blends. The floral image is stamped twice to get the width I needed. I did use several of the new In Colors. The leaves, and the hummingbird, have Shy Shamrock and Summer Splash. For the flowers I went with Pretty In Pink with a center of Petunia Pop. To complete the hummingbird I used Soft Sea Foam for the lightest green and tried to blend that in. Plus the red neck which is Poppy Parade. There is not a die for the hummingbird. But he is easy to fussy cut, and well worth the effort.
Papers
The colors are to go along with the Hummingbird and the flowers. I chose Shy Shamrock for the card base and the piece of floral DSP is Shy Shamrock. It is from the 2024-2026 In Color Designer Series Paper. There are sheets of each of the new In Colors. The striped paper is from the same pack and is the reverse pattern to the floral. This one is Petunia Pop.
This is the gorgeous In Color Designer Series Paper. You can see there are two different designs of each of the five colors.
Finishes
To complete the card, I wrapped a length of Summer Splash ribbon around the floral images and Petunia Pop layers. I then used a small section to tie a simple knot over to the right side. The hummingbird is raised using Stampin’ Dimensionals and is drinking from the left flower. And the finishing touch is a scattering of Rhinestone Basic Gems.
