here's my latest card :) its my favorite chickies back for a return appearance! its hard to see in the picture, but i glued actual glitter and sand mixture along the border of the sand in each circle. also, i made the flowers in the chickies' hair glittery and made the palm trees puffy with the crystal clear lacquer. also, the middle circle is puffed out with foam backing for added dimension! the middle is simple, but finished as well- ready to write a nice summery "hello" to a friend! this card was so fun to make! i was humming the aloha hula song the whole time! ha! :) hope you enjoy seeing it as much as i loved making it! how fun is the sand? seriously?!?! also i colored with watercolor pencils and blended with water... and chalked a light blue sky! i stamped "aloha" on the ribbon- i really wanted to try the whole stamping right on the ribbon technique! turned out great!
