The stamps on the main image are all from Stampscapes and were stamped on glossy cardstock. This image was colored with various Marvy dye inks that were applied with Cut 'n Dry. The 'Aloha' stamp and the hibiscus stamp (on the background) are from 'Island Paperie', a scrapbooking store on Maui. These stamps were actually 'made in Hawaii' so these qualified as souvenirs from a recent trip to this beautiful destination. The glass with a 'Blue Hawaiian' drink and the hibiscus in the top right corner are from Recollections.
Wishing I was there.
A warm welcome to Beckie and Mary, my newest followers.
