Stretching Your SSS Paintables Card One: Hummingbird Thanks

 

Hello Crafters! 

I'm a huge fan of Suzy Plantamura, especially the paintables she creates for Simon Says Stamp. Her illustrations are always so fun and whimsical! Plus, there is something so nice about having a card all laid out if you just want to sit and color. Which, let's be honest, I want to do. 

However, every once in a while I want to kick it up a notch and that's what were doing today . . . and tomorrow :) 

I loved this paintable from the Mothers and Florals set but I wanted to create two cards with it. This let me make room for a sentiment as well as play a bit with the layout. 

I split the images apart and made my two cards. Today we're going to be making the hummingbird card. Which is a bit different for me but still pretty clean and simple. 

I did a bit of Copic coloring then set it off with the bright white die cut frame. I kept the card simple by only letting a bit of my busy background peek through. 

You can watch the whole card come together in the video below. 

I love how different this card look from the original card! The image was gorgeous before but now it gets to stand alone as the focal point instead of having to share the lime light :) 

If you'd like to see how I made the flower card be sure to stop back tomorrow for that video. 

Thanks so much for visiting!
