whimsy aloha!

Aloha! Welcome to the Whimsy Haven Blog Hop!!!!

You should have hopped here from Julie's blog:

Remember the hop starts at the Whimsy Haven blog...you'll want to pop over there to see the new specials...new sets...oh-so-fun!!!

Here's what I have to share with you today....

I think that one of the styles that will forever be trendy is tropical...gotta love surfboards! I printed the surfboards on Gmund textured cardstock...I added pops of color by using PTI Hawaiian Shores and New Leaf. The patterned paper is by Bella Blvd, the Aloha is Stampin' Up and the buttons are from the fabbie Jane:)

Check out this fabbie new Summertime set!


I was inspired by TESC117:


Okay, that's it for me...next up is Jo:

JoBoogie Stamping (...and scrapbooking too!)

Thanks for hoppin' by...

Ahhhh,ha! Surfy images are always the BEST! {WHY DID S/U! EVER RETIRE THAT SET? WHAT WERE THEY THINKIN'?!}This card is like shredding a long right hander, getting tubed and riding the lip, down the falls and shredding through the shore break... In other words, EXCELLENT, dude!
