Aloha

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I have a tropical card to share.   I used 2 die sets from the Beach & Tropical die release.  These dies are perfect for those summery creations!

I cut out the pieces from the Aloha & Ukulele and Tropical Fruit die sets.  Everything was shaded with some Oxide Inks.  I used a variety of colors to give all of the die cuts some depth and dimension.  
My card is a standard A2 size and was lightly shaded with some ink leaving a white center.  I used the same ink to add a lot of splatters to the background of my card.
The "Aloha" sentiment was angled across the top edge of my card.  I love the whimsical look of this sentiment.
Next, the pineapples were affixed to my card base.  I off set them a bit and centered them within the non-shaded part of my card.
The orange slice and tropical drink were layered onto the set of pineapples.  The bright and colorful fruit is the perfect combination with the tropical drink.
The tropical leaves and pretty hibiscus were added for a finishing touch on my card.  This card make a fun way to say "aloha."

Here are the die sets used on my card, available in the store:
