How fun that Hawaiian is the Featured Stamper this week - Victoria is such a sweet card artist and has a lot of fun creations in her gallery. This card inspired me:
So instead of a boat window I went with a traditional window, used similar foliage/coral dies, stayed with a beach/sea theme, but I made a wreath and have flamingos. Apparently flamingos are not native to Hawaii but there are some in the Honolulo zoo so I am sticking with them.
Congrats Victoria - thanks for the inspiration, all your sweet, sweet encouraging words to others, and for being such a super member of this community. Millions of hugz.
To make the wreath, I cut a circle and then cut out the middle and glued the ends together. Then I layered on some fussy cut shells from the Seashell Christmas tree image. Then I twisted on some fibers. Then I did another layer of seashells and some kraft foliage splattered with white paint. Added on some Stickles and some pearls.

Wow Nancy: what a gorgeous seaside wreath. There was a Hyatt Resort on Maui that had flamingoes back in the eighties. Not sure about now. The little sea shells, fibers and pearls are a fabulous blend of inspired elements. I think Sis Vicki would be thrilled with your case. It is magical.
