Hello Love - BRI Guest Designer

Hi, crafty peeps! Today I am happy to be guest designing again with Butterfly Reflections Ink. It's hands-down my favorite place to shop, with all the latest products, super fast shipping, and the best customer service I've ever encountered, anywhere. Go ahead and take a look-see. You won't be sorry you did! If you like, you can even use my affiliate link by clicking on the badge in my righthand sidebar. Either way, don't you think it's time that you were treated the way a customer should be?

So for today's card, I started out by using a Lawn Fawn Navy Woodgrain Notecard, then die cut a focal panel from the American Crafts Dear Lizzy Serendipity 6x6 pad. I trimmed two more patterns into strips, cut banner ends, and layered them on my card base for extra pops of color. 

On the focal panel, I sponged pink ink through the Memory Box Heart Confetti Stencil to give it more visual interest. Then I stamped out the birds from Lawn Fawn's Hello Sunshine, and stamped them an additional time on white card stock. I colored them with alcohol markers, fussy cut them out, and adhered them over the stamped images.

I happened to notice that the font of the Hello Sunshine sentiment was the same as one of the sentiments in the new Lawn Fawn Bugs and Kisses stamp set, so I decided to do a custom sentiment with some selective inking in Memento Tuxedo Black.

And finally, I popped my focal panel up with foam tape to add dimension.

I hope you enjoy it! Special thanks to Butterfly Refections Ink for inviting me to be your January guest designer! I had a blast!
