Aloha!
Last night, we had a major thunderstorm come though the valley. Lots of rain and today it is cooler but sticky...I started to think about the tropical islands. Instead of saying "Hello" I thought I would use "Aloha" instead and use some bright colors. I have this paper for years and today it was perfect for my tropical theme. The sketch is this month's Mojo Monday #396 Contest.
I wanted to really focus on the colorful paper so I used it on the inner rectangle too. The circle is from Spellbinders, Splendid Circles and all the rest of the diecuts are from Cheery Lynn Designs. I used Fishtail Banners, Tropical Flourish, Gardenia Strip, and a new release Scandinavian Tag 2 that was the perfect diecut size to place above and below my title.
A closer view...I made the red flower because I didn't have the exact size or bright red flower that I wanted to use today. I also added little lines with a black marker to match the paper. A placed a small pearl in the center. The other teal/blue flowers were part of my big bag of flowers that I bought at the scrapbook rummage sale. :)
The fabulous sketch for this month's contest! I recently ordered some sequins and stamps from the Verve store....can't wait for the arrival!
Thank you!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
Hugs Lisa

This is a beautiful card. My favorite from this weeks Mojo Monday. Aloha! Cathy
Love the bright colors of your beautiful card.
This card is absolutely gorgeous. The rich colors come together beautifully. What a great piece to say, "Hello" or "Aloha" to someone and remind him/her that you are thinking of them. Its a keeper.
