The only humming bird stamp I have is this one drinking from what looks like a Hibiscus, but let's call it a poppy for Mary, shall we? This stamp was stamped twice and layered for dimension. Only top layer was colored. Birdie is all shimmery from the Radiant Pearls and Perfect Pearl powder. The background is a very intricate gel print using re-inkers, alcohol inks and some stencils. There is some metallic shine in it as well.

The gel print looks absolutely amazing, Lori. So full of texture and structure, and the soft colours are really beautiful. The shimmer and shine must be really magical, those Pearl powders are so hard to capture in a picture. I almost feel I see sunflower heads in that background.

Wow! Your gel print bg is truly amazing and sets such a gorgeous stage for this wonderful hummingbird and "poppy" scene. These colors are so soft and pretty and really a pleasure to look at. I know Mary will love this card you made for her. ~Karen.
