Hi everyone. It feels so good to be back in my crafty space. The ideas just seem to flow better here. I miss my Dad, the two fuzzy ones and the lovely dry air, but this is now home for me.
Today, I have a card for several challenges. I have been itching to play with this stamp set from Close to my Heart for a while. It is called Hawaiian Hibiscus, the set includes two views of the Hibiscus, two sentiments, a leaf and two smaller flowers...maybe ginger blossoms.
I am using the Sketch from Cas(e) this sketch # 178, the colors are from the image at Inspired by All the Little things #21.
I cut most of the image panel along straight lines, the bottom and right lower area are fussy cut along the sentiment and flower petals. I embossed the card base with elegant dots from Stampin Up. This card is going to male friends of mine who used to live in Hawaii...so I can get away with the flower, but no extra embellishments. The main panel is adhered with foam tape.
I am also submitting this to Anything goes Wednesday challenge at Simon Says Stamp.
Thanks so much for stopping by~!
