this month on the BBB Challenge team!

I inked up the beautiful hummingbird from Humming Along stamp set. It was one of my first sets from Flourishes and is still one of my favourites.

My colouring is all over the place, I mixed and matched some seemingly unrelated colours… something I do a lot
I used R46/R35/R22 for the red belly, which I blended into the golden tones of the rest of the body (YR 24/YR12/YR01 with a hint of Y15). On the wings and tail I used my favourites shades of olive green (YG97/YG95/YG93/YG91).
For the papers, I reached for Crate Paper. I cut out the label with Standard Circles SM and Lacey Circles Nestabilities®.

The lovely Deconstructed Sketch, DS58, served as my layout inspiration:
