Hello! My Name Is...


Hello there!  My name is Melissa and I have fallen in love with the Hello My Name Is collection from Teresa Collins.  It's beautiful and warm and rich with sentiments, images, and patterns...a little something for everyone to love.

I combined the 6x6 Paper Pad with cream cardstock.  I embellished the cardstock with a Teresa Collins stencil and modeling paste and while the paste was still wet, I coated it with a light dusting of white glitter.  

I also used a Hello My Name Is die cut tag on each of my cards along with die cut banners, brads, and sequins. I made my sentiment pop by using some Teresa Collins/Xyron foam squares.

I used a Teresa Collins stencil on a block of vellum for this card and added glitter once again.  Once the modeling paste was dry I attached the block of vellum to my tag and then started layering with more die cuts and a cardstock sticker...and not to forget Hello My Name Is Decorative Tape.

Clear and black sequins from this collection are so irresistible.  They have to be one of my most favorite current embellishments.

Everything was secured in place so easily using my Teresa Collins/Xyron Mega Tape Runner...what a glorious product :).

And one last card using many of the same elements with the addition of lovely copper sequins, a chipboard heart, brad, and wood chip...so beautiful.  

I painted my wood chip with off-white acrylic paint, let it dry, and then aged the edges a bit with distress ink.  

I had a scrap of stenciled cardstock left over from my first card, so I attached it to the tag using my Teresa Collins/Xyron stapler...can't stop using that thing :). I trimmed down a Hello My Name Is cardstock border sticker to add to the bottom of my tag, and then finished the card off with sequins.  Once you open a package of these, you just can't stop finding places for them!

Thanks so much for visiting.  You'll have to snag yourself some of this collection or if you're like me, all of it.  It's just a delight to work with.
