Hawaiian Time

Ok, so I missed the deadline for the MS Society Fundraiser. I "talked" to Brenda and she said that it was ok, that I could still send her my cards. They have fundraisers throughout the year, and she said that they would be happy to receive my cards, especially when they find out they came from Hawaii. I wanted to make "beachy" type cards, and I thought these images were perfect! I got these images from Gracie. Thanks for sharing, Gracie! These are the cards I made:






Yes, I cut out all the images and then popped them up with foam tape. I hate to admit it, but I'm starting to like cutting images as it's very challenging to me. Uh oh, I can hear my BFF now: "See? What did I tell you? I told you that cutting was relaxing!" Hahahah! Well, it isn't really relaxing to me just yet, but maybe one day ...
Thanks for dropping in blogging peeps! Still got a lot of projects on my plate, so until next time, take care of yourselves and be safe out there. Aloha ...

MS Society Fundraiser

This is the first of five cards that I'm making for Brenda at Floral Fantasies. The cards will be used as part of a fundraising event for the MS Society at Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge. I wanted to send her some "summer time" cards, so the rest of the cards will have this theme. This is my Hula Mouse card. Ms. Mouse was a free digi image from Two Scoops Rice Design a few months ago. Thanks, Renae, for this cute image!




Ok, if you've been following my blog, you know that I can't stand to cut out images. Well, well, well! Lookie, lookie, here! Yes, my friends, I decided to try really hard to be patient and learn to cut images. I think this one came out pretty good, considering I'm a newbie to cutting. But, what was I thinking! Look at that skinny tail??? Kyoko, I'll show you the card tomorrow and you can see for yourself that I didn't cut her tail off! LOL! I've been inspired (to cut my images out) by my blogging sisters, Kyoko, Joy and Cami. These ladies are superb "cutters"! Kinda scary, yeah? Keep the sharp objects away from them. Hahahah!


Finally, I used the large dew drops as coconuts on my tree.


Another late night ... that's it for me. I really need to finish the rest of the cards tomorrow. I'll post the finished cards when I'm done. Until then, take care and stay safe. Aloha ...
