Just Us Girls #346 - Word Week

Heartfelt Creations Winner; Evelyn Mendez
 


I love Word Week over at JUGS.  We get to see a fun variety of cards -- 

I used my Inspired By Stamping, Hummingbirds, along with a sentiment from Watercolor Sentiments.  I cut of my birds in water colored paper and then painted them with water colors, and added a light wash for the sky background.  


This card is going to my son, who just made E5 rank in the Navy.  We are so proud of this young man!

Your turn -- how does the word BIRD inspire you?  Pop on over to the JUGS blog and check out the amazing DT cards if you need some inspiration!


Thanks for stopping by~

This is so pretty... Honestly, you can not go wrong with bright hummingbirds! Love your layout, and between these two stamp sets, you could bust out some rad cards! (Like this one!)

Congratulations to your son, Vicki! He's certainly moving his way up the ranks! Your hummingbirds are gorgeous, sporting their vibrant feathers! As much as I'd love to join the challenge, my 'bird terror' (total fear of our feathered friends...yes, I'm a freaky-deak!) makes for not very many bird images in my collection. I'll see what I have and do my best...
Hugs~c
