For Toni's purple challenge. I had this panel made already from a week ago, which was just sponged with green and blue DOX's and droplets of water and blotted off with a paper towel. Then stamped with the fun filled dots stamp in delicata gold. I already had the Inkadinkado stamp set out, so I used the hummingbird image, stamping it with Memento grape jelly. I stamped the sentiment in delicata gold first and then embossed in gold glory, edging it with delicata gold. I stamped the flowers at the bottom and added a couple of glittery butterflies adhered with glue dots. Thanks Toni for a fun challenge and thanks for looking.

I love all the gold accents on your beautiful card, especially the sentiment. And your pretty glittery butterflies are gorgeous on your pretty purple flowers. I'm a bling person! Lovely card.

Wonderful bg...TFS how you achieved it. A lovely card with the hummingbird and flower and the flowers and butterflies at the bottom. The gold accents add a touch of elegance.

Love the beautiful green bg with the gold dots, Shirl, just perfect for the hummingbird and purple flowers with the pretty butterflies! At times such as now, it is so good to stop and notice the beauty of nature~

This is so very pretty Shirl, and dare I say, magical too. All these gold dots remind me of flower heads so imagine how thrilled your hummingbird is with all of these succulent flowers to chose from. Fun! Your main flowers are so pretty it's now wonder these sparkly butterflies are flitting around them. This is such a great sentiment Shirl; especially for the times we are in now. ~Karen.

That's a beautiful background. I know how shimmery the Delicata gold will be in real life. It adds a wonderful light but rich feel to those gorgeous greens. Sweet little hummingbird. And a good sentiment - it would be easy to wish life could go fast-forward right now, but there are small treats and blessings to enjoy in the moment.
