HELLO HAPPY MAIL

 


Hi everyone! I've been MIA lately. Between starting a new job and going back to school things have been getting away from me. Crafting has taken a back seat to all the homework lol.

I recently joined the Honey Bee Buzzworthy Challenge group on Facebook and thought this challenge looked like fun.


These colors are so bright and cheerful. I can't believe Summer has finally started making an appearance! It has been such a cool spring, I'm glad to finally have some warmer weather.

I decided to use hugs enclosed and love enclosed stamps and dies. 


I purchased both these stamps and dies back when they were released but never got around to playing with them. I was originally going to color ALL the envelopes on the background but gave up after two. 


As I started coloring I knew I wanted to add more dimension so I stamped, colored, and then die cut out different envelopes. Using the envelope die I created the one with the hello stamped on the front. 


Since I stamped the sentiment at the same time I needed to give it some color on the outer edges so it would "pop" a bit. Using a copic marker I edged the sentiment and then used foam to give some lift. m


I almost forgot the had the little happy mail accents. They added just the right amount of sass!

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!
