Hummingbird Thank You

Good morning, everyone.  Welcome to my newest followers - it's very nice to have you here.  Today I have made a thank-you card.  I really wanted to play along over at Squigglefly in their Thank You challenge - it's the first time I've participated.  They have some lovely freebies if you'd like to join me - I chose this hummingbird and coloured it with my Prismacolor pencils.


I followed this sketch at Feeling Sketchy:
Feeling Sketchy
Here are the other supplies used:
  • Sentiment:   Doodle Pantry
  • Ribbon:  May Arts, Offray
  • Embossing folder:  Sorry I don't have the name of this one because I don't own it - I have some embossed panels that someone did for me
  • Die:  Nellie's Multiframes Ovals (for sentiment)
  • Cardstock:  Staples, Recollections
  • Gems:  Dollarama
