However I'd already lifted out the stamps so I thought I'd go ahead and make it anyway.
I stamped the design, using Paradise and Paradise Hummingbird sets from Uniko Stamps, onto slightly glossy card using Kaleidacolour inks. And here's an important tip - make sure you use glossy card sold for crafting and don't try to use up the remains of a pack of glossy photo card, or your stamps will stick to the card and the glossy surface of it will peel off and remain stuck to the stamps and it will take you ages to clean it off. Don't ask me how I know...

What a beautiful card Jane with a lovely tropical feel. It sounds as if you may have trouble along the way with photo paper! Barbxx
Popped in to say what a striking and beautiful card. Love the colours and thank you for the tip about the paper..One to remember x
This is so beautiful Jane, really love the colours you chose. And thanks for the tip about using photo paper, very useful to know!
very sweet card and the one below is adorable
Darnell is delighted with this sweet tropical hummer card floating on her monitor, Jane!! It's gorgeous and pretty darn close to the real deal!! (And, wow, this would have been a winner at last week's Time Out Challenge!) I was a bit busy last week, haha, so now I'm fighting with the temptation to go look at the Glasgow Rose ... But I think I'll wait and see it in person; can't wait!! Mwah! Hugs, Darnell
