Sending Smiles

I'm a big fan of using sets in full as a background. Today's card uses the  hero_product_link sku="CL982" text="Luggage Tag Alphabet"].

I used an A2 panel that I cut from the  hero_product_link sku="PS621" text="Sunshine Mix Layering Paper"] pack. I inked up the alphabet with  hero_product_link sku="AF207" text="Butter Bar Shadow Ink"] and pressed the  hero_product_link sku="PS621" text="Sunshine Mix Layering Paper"] panel on top.

I stamped the HI in  hero_product_link sku="AF234" text="Navy Shadow Ink"]. To finish off the panel, I stamped the  hero_product_link sku="CL949" text="You're So Lovely"] blooms in  hero_product_link sku="AF308" text="Ombre Pool to Navy"] ink.

The bottom panel is a sheet from  hero_product_link sku="PS745" text="Kelly's Designer Paper 4x6 Pad"]. The sentiment is from hero_product_link sku="CL954" text="Many Everyday Messages"] and the strip is from the solid side of the base panel.

What was going to be a clean and simple design ended up with a couple different layers and a couple different stamp sets!
