Every year we visit South West Michigan and stay in a beach community called Palisades Park.  The community owns and will never develop a large piece of critical dunes.  This is my page for the boys to remember.  I chose to use a hummingbird because their are many hummingbirds in the critical dunes habitat.   I also LOVE the Art Nouveau flowers.  I made a frame with two of the bracket cuts and added some of the Robin's Nest Tear Drops to the un-opened flowers.

 For the hummingbird, I cut the wings using the Art Glitter Fantasy Film.  The Fantasy Film will break in a standard metal die, but cuts like a dream in the Cricut!  I just used the pressure dial on a 2.  Isn't this perfect for the iridescent wings and end of the tail on the hummingbird!?
The title is made with Opposites Attract and Basic Grey Stickers.
