Aloha!

**Looking for the Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge Card? It's down below, please scroll down.**


I am trying out with a second entry for the Gina K design team for the month of August If you want to try out here is the link to her blog. The challenge was to use one of the many techniques that she has on her website. For this card I chose the "Inking a Cuttlebug Folder". I really spent quite a bit of time on this card, I just couldn't get it to look right. So it changed quite a few times! I should have taken different pictures of all the different places this flamingo wanted to live! Finally I hit upon this one, simple but still looks complete.
I also used masking for the water behind the flamingo. The flowers were added to "finish" the project. The ribbon happened to be a great match.

Recipe:
Stamps: Aloha - made by Theresa - sold by GinaK
Paper: GinaK Pure Luxury Grass Green and White, SU Regal Rose
Ink: Memento Black and Memento Bamboo Leaves
Other: Random ribbon, Copics, Nestabilities, Cuttlebug folder

Thanks so much for stopping by. Please don't forget to scroll down for the Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge for this week. 

Have a week filled with blessings,
