Happy Birthday #5

Aloha,

Well, another birthday card! Busy month for the birthdays!

I made this card for a dog lover, and I found this stamp which had a little puppy! I'm a cat lover, so, I don't have any problem with the cards to cat lover, but not dogs, although, I like them, too. Especially, in Honolulu, so many locals have small to medium size dogs. The stamp is from Lawn Fawn. I used even another stamp sets to get cup cakes, smaller speech bubble, etc.except the tiny cups from Miss Ink stamps.

This is inside of the card.

A week ago, Hurricane Lala hit Hawaii islands. I underestimated the effect of Lala. ... this island had Kona low effect back in March. That brought a lot of rain but this one, lots of wind... severe weather everywhere. Mahalo for stopping by my blog. Please stay safe wherever you are. Love, Eve

Coffee card for monthly swap April 2021

Aloha~

This is the card I made for April for my Coffee card swap group on FB. Most stamps are from LF, and I colored them all with Copics. The bear on the screen doesn't hold a cup, so to make the theme to be "coffee", I looked for a perfect size cup image stamp from my stamp collection, masked and stamped. That tiny cup belongs to Miss Ink stamp set. I also masked the sentiment in the picture frame, so that I could stamp the hibiscus from Hero Arts, to give a little touch of Hawaii/tropical Island.🌺 I love doing something a little different, and doing so, I spend time to look for a perfect match, mostly size and sometimes the design. When I find it, I get excited! lol The fox stamp is from LF but from a different stamp set. Background paper is also from LF. I used Wink of Stella shimmer pen on the steam from coffee but very hard to see.. The sentiment which I heat embossed is from Neat & Tangled stamp set. Even in pandemic, we can have a coffee time with friends, thanks to the technology! 💻Can't imagine the people's lives during the last pandemic which is Spanish flu..I used the foam tapes to the fox and the pile of books to give the dimension to the scene I made. Also I used it to the sentiment strip.
