I have a card to show today using beautiful stamps by Designs by Ryn. The quote is by Chocolate Baroque.
The background is Distress Inks and a lovely stencil with vines, but it doesn't have the name on it, I can't recall what company it's by.
Designs by Ryn stamps: Leafy Branch, Streamertail Hummingbird, and Flower Lace (background of bottom). I used a stencil with small circles and white acrylic paint here and there. I coloured the bird with Distress Inks and highlighted with a white pen.
Chocolate Baroque stamp: Quote is from Pretty Poppies set.
Thanks for stopping by and if you live in Canada or the USA, enjoy the upcoming long weekend :)

How the weather differs Shirley, we have had rain most day's this month and many fields sitting in water and so cold as well.
Absolutely love today's creations both the stamping and wonders blend of colours.

A really beautiful hummingbird and love the colours and background stamping and stencilling on this pretty card Shirley, also the white paint you have used in places works fabulously. Enjoy your long weekend. x
Hey Shirley, Wow! I thought that the background was done with a Gelli plate at first. So much texture in there! Love it! Beautiful framing with the Leafy Branch design and use of the hummingbird. Love it! Wishing you a wonderful long weekend as well :)
Lovely card, Shirley, the background is fabulous. Love the nice quote too.

Wonderful sentiment & gorgeous card, Shirley! Love how you use stencils! Hoping you get some relief from the heat before long!
I'm sitting here with my coffee just staring at your background. I love your colour combination and those small white dots. Lovely hummingbird. I think today is going to be a hot day so stay cool.
Hi my friend, lovely work as alway, beautiful colors this combination of purple, turquoise and green, my favorites! As Ryn said, a lot of texture on the background so I thought too that it was done using acrylics......hugs from across the ocean, Miranda xx
Beautiful! So much background interest with the textures and colours, and a perfect marriage of bird and quote. That would be wonderful framed and on the wall!
Really love this Shirley. I am trying to go down a different path and use my real stamps...love your inspirations. Beautiful card, love that background and gorgeous design. Have a lovely weekend.xx
