The Maui Stamper

I like your face…You know the friend for whom that expression is meant.

I guess I’m a pretty lucky girl, because there were two friends that came to mind IMMEDIATELY when I saw that stamp, and naturally I had to make two cards.

• Stamps:  Cheerful Critters
• Color Palette:  Basic Black, Whisper White, Crushed Curry, Wisteria Wonder
• Accessories:  Blendabilities, Bakers’ Twine, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Rhinestones, Polka Dot TIEF, Tiny Triangles TIEF

I used the narrow end of the Blendabilities to color in random squares.

Same card, different layout.  The Polka Dot TIEF circles are 3/4″ circles, so you can punch a template in a scrap and place it over the embossed circle so that you can add color with a dauber.

I hand-wrote the “Hey Chick” part.  I mean, honestly.  What else could I say?

Speaking of liking faces, I had the tremendous pleasure of meeting one of my blog readers.  Annette and her husband have been regular Maui visitors for a number of years, and she contacted me late last year to say she would be here.  We had breakfast and talked long enough that our server hinted broadly that they needed our table 🙂  We weren’t done, so we took a long walk up and down South Kihei Road.  Thanks so much, Annette, for sharing your holiday with me!
