daydreaming of Hawaii...
So for some reason, these past few days I can NOT stop daydreaming about our time in Hawaii. Pete and I went there on our Honeymoon - which was pretty special, and I know that is why it will always be an extra special place for us...but can we just discuss how GORGEOUS it is??? I am absolutely in LOVE with the island of Kauai. And there is so much more I want to see. I know that I have a few blog readers who live in the Hawaiian Islands - I am VERY envious!!
So the other night I had a fitting for my bridesmaid gown for my brother's wedding. My seamstress is leaving soon for a trip to Hawaii and I was telling her all the great places to see & go. I sent her some pictures that we took, and it really just got me thinking again. How I would LOVE LOVE to be sitting at breakfast, overlooking the beach on Kauai, waves, sunrise...Hawaiian music. Oh man, I gotta stop. Anyway, I went home and was inspired to make a card. I have some great DP that reminds me of Hawaii, so I was starting to make a card that just said "hi". Well then I thought, how cute would it be if it said "Aloha" instead? :)
So here it is...my Aloha card...the "i wish i could jump on a plane and go to Hawaii for a whole month" card. I guess we better start saving up for our next trip!!
"Aloha" Card:
Paper: SU! Summer Sun, Chocolate Chip. K & Co. Designer Paper
Bazzil Chipboard Letters, American Crafts Ribbon
Paper Piercing Tool
