I stamped this image using five different stamps. The floral stamp is one stamp, the leaves and tiny flowers are another stamp, and I used three different hummingbird stamps. I stamped the floral five times, I stamped the leaves and tiny flowers seven times. I embossed the floral and hummingbirds with a mix of Ranger Gold and Gold Tinsel EP and I embossed the leaves and tiny floral with a mixture of SU Vanilla and Ranger Bridal EP. I then watercolored the images using SU and Tombo markers with an aquapen. I mixed PearlEX powders with Gum Arabic and painted that on top of the already watercolored hummingbirds. The entire picture is 11" x 14". I'm going to have this one framed.

Good for you Jerri -- a FRAMED watercolor!! I am speechless as to providing a comment on this stunning watercolor. This is just what you would see in a gallery hanging with the best. You know I love your work, so I really don't need to say anything else, but am so happy that you are going to have this framed (long overdue). Keep them coming!

This is absolutely stunning! I have never seen humminbird stamps, but you seem to have plenty of them. They are such darling little creatures. If you are looking for a place to hang your framed artwork, I have the perfect spot in my home! ;)
