Melissa Phillips brings fresh color and layered charm to her A Happy Hello Card, a cheerful design inspired by the beautiful versatility of the In the Meadow Stencils. 🌸✨ By creating her own custom color palette with stenciling, Melissa builds a vibrant floral backdrop that sets the stage for delicate hearts, cherry blossoms, and sweet layered details. The soft vellum, scrunched seam binding, and sparkling accents give this heartfelt “hello” a touch of elegance and warmth.
