Hello, my crafty friends!! I’ve had such a great time guest designing with the newest release from Hello Bluebird!! I absolutely LOVE the aesthetic design of these stamp sets and CAN NOT get enough!! I have one more card to share with you today!! This one combines a new set with a couple of previously released products.

I began by stamping the darling images from the Rain or Shine Stamp Set and the Pathway Background Stamp onto white cardstock with InkOn3 Blackout Ink. After coloring the background and critters with Copics, I used the Coordinating Dies to cut them out. I die-cut “HELLO” directly from the background using the Hello Friend Words Die Set, then adhered it to a panel of black cardstock. (I have to admit, it was a little scary to cut into the background after all of that coloring!)

I die-cut “friend” three times from black cardstock and once from glossy black cardstock with the Hello Friend Word Die Set, then stacked and adhered them together with the glossy layer on top. It was adhered with liquid adhesive under “HELLO”. The cute little bear and kitten were popped up onto the background with foam adhesive for added dimension. I darkened their eyes with a black glaze pen and added highlights with a white gel pen and called this one done!!

That’s it for me today!! I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!! I’ll see you soon!!
