Let's Flamin-GO!

We're embracing "Tropical Delights" this fortnight at Shopping Our Stash and you're invited to join the fun. No need to break out the sunscreen, just make a card that features palm trees, parrots, toucans, hula girls, tiki bars, hibiscus, pineapples, blue drinks with little umbrellas or... wellllll... you get the idea, right? I went with a beachy theme:

There are eight tropical/beachy stickers on this card (YES, I have a lot of stickers; NO, I don't find this to be problematical in anyway!) as well as a bunch of items --the polaroids, clouds, pineapple and beach ball-- which I hand cut from journal cards or patterned paper. The cloud-themed washi is one of my all time favorites and I will miss it when it's finished off; likely the next time I use it. The notebook patterned paper is DCWV; the pink floral is Doodlebug; and while there was no particular need to stitch around the perimeter, I elected to do so anyway.

Be sure to check out the other fun "Tropical Delights" over at SOS and then start planning what you'll link up with us this fortnight!
