Aloha Birthday

 This card was made for this month's current Funfolds and/or Summer Fun challenge at Incy Wincy Designs Challenge.  Our sponsor is this month is TLC Designs who was generous enough to let us play with her Hawaiin Holiday Digital Stamp Set.

For my card I used some ink pads and blenders and created the background.  I used my Cricut to fussy cut the images, including the palm trees.  I used a wood embossing folder for the sea to make it look like the water was moving, I used this on some glossy papers from CTMH.   I crinkled the Kraft paper and sprayed it with some distress ink.  The sentiment itself came from a different set completely, it came from a set that is no longer available.


Thanks for looking!

Beautifully put together Karen, a real (in my mind) Hawaiian scene. Love the sentiment.
