As part of the celebration, each of the challenge team as well as the weekly design team have invited a guest, so you have a wonderful feast of gorgeous inspiration over on the challenge blog. My guest is the amazingly-talented TaeEun, who has created the most gorgeous card.
For my card, I was inspired primarily by the flowers and the little lights in the background.
I stamped the floral image onto a white top-folding card base then colored it with Copics. I then sprayed it with some gold shimmer spritz and once it was dry, I die-cut the Big Hello die from the colored image.
I die-cut the same die 5 times from black cardstock and stacked it behind the top layer to create a camouflaged die-cut.
Finally, I finished the card with some Copper Penny Nuvo Drops.
Thanks for visiting. Please take the time to check out all the fabulous inspiration from our design team and our wonderful guests.

Oh! Karren, your card is so elegant yet modern too with that camouflaging HELLO! Congrats on the 50th challenge! Thank you so much for inviting me as your guest!!!
This is so cool and fabulous, Karren! I love your take on the inspiration photo!
Beautifully done!! The flowers are so richly colored yet the letters are bold enough (and pop so well on the black) that they stand out perfectly. LOVE the gold shimmer!
