I'm back! and it looks like I'm just in the nick of time! Jaydee's sketch is a fun one over at The Paper Players #752 - you do know that I love a good sketch, right? Take a peek ...
Bobby brought me a very beautiful hostess gift last week - it is never expected but always appreciated - besides, who would say no to this C&9th Eclectic Garden die set? Thanks, Bobby!
Our hummingbirds are arguing over the three feeders we have for them - thus the
zig-zagging stitch lines [C&9th Kristina's Finishing Touches]to represent their flight!! My 'polka-dotty' paper is from HoneyBee's Pinstripes and Polka Dots collection. A C&9th sentiment from their Spring Print Sentiments was perfect for the last detail!
Now, I'd better get this card into the PP752 gallery before that window closes!

What a sweet gift from, Bobby ad you've used it beautifully! You know I love the polka dotty paper and the zig zags are fun too. Why is it that I see videos of several hummers at one feeder but here, at our house, only one bird at a time is allowed! They chase each other away all the time! You might say they get the zoomies LOL!!
Thats a sweet hummer. Lovely.
Michele, you've made a gorgeous card with the generous gift from Bobby! I love the bright florals and the pretty hummingbird zooming in for a taste of nectar. Such a lovely interpretation of the sketch, thank you so much for making time to play along with us this week at the Paper Players!
I just knew you'd make magic happen with the die set from Bobby and you certainly did Michele! So much detail in a basically CAS card, and I'm loving all the zoomie lines!! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
What a great gift! Your bright flowers and bird are gorgeous but I do really love the wonky stitching. It looks like flight path patterns for your bird! It's always a pleasure to see such a crisp, clean design. Thank you for sharing with us at The Paper Players.
Sweet card. Love the hummer and your lovely garden. xx
This is lovely-the sketch screams you 😀
What a stunning hummingbird! Your card is beautiful, but I must say that I think your hummers have had a bit too much nectar
This is such a pretty take on the sketch. The colorful flowers and die cut hummer are delightful! I love the zig zag stitching.
So lovely! Both your friendship and the card. Hummies are just like kids aren't they? Thanks for sharing this beauty!
What a nice hostess gift and a fun card with it, Michele! I love that you thought to use some patterned paper for the background and the crazy stitching! The flowers are as vibrant as the hummingbird! Beautiful!
Michelle, now that's a hostess gift :-). I am obsessed with that paper and the detail and the font on the sentiment! Another fabulous card. So glad you shared this with us at the Paper Players this week

Bobby has great taste, that's for sure! I love the elements in Eclectic Garden, especially that hummer! A great take on the sketch with those stitched lines, too!
You have done that special gift proud. A stunning card xx
Well don't you have sweet friends to bring such lovely gifts - and didn't you manage to put those dies to good use?! That hummingbird and flowers is just beautiful. Love the diagonal diecut detailing too. Thanks for playing along with us over at The Paper Players this week!
So glad you like the die set, Michele, and that you put it to good use so quickly. Love the soft background that makes the flowers and hummingbird stand out.
What a fun background you created for your fun flowers and that sweet hummer! Dana just sent me a video of one at her feeder---I've got her hooked into being a bird nerd too! Lovely way to use our sketch, we're always happy when you play along with us!
So pretty Michele! It has a lovely bright happy spring look! :)
What a nice gift from Bobby. Love your pretty card with that garden of blooms and the humming bird. The stitched lines were a great idea. Fabulous take on the sketch.
How pretty! I love every bit of this and so clever with the stitch lines. I can just see those hummingbirds now! Beautiful colors and brilliant use of the sketch!
Oh, how dainty and beautiful my friend... that bird!!
This is one of my favourite die sets of all time. I love the zigzag pattern so clever of you and a great take on the sketch.

What a wonderful use of the sketch, Michele. I love the the crossed stitching lines. What a marvelous way to mimic the movement of the hummingbird. Fabulous card.
