Used 3 different Summer Samba papers. Fussy cut the flowers and popped them up with circle foam adhesive. My hubby noticed I was cutting up the paper (he commented that he did not think I would cut into such pretty paper) & how thick it was (he touched the paper to feel the thickness of it). Added gems to center of the flowers.
Hiding in My Craftroom has National Scrapbook Day (NSD) challenges and NSD2 is All About Me.
1. I like photography. You can see my camera around my neck in one of the photos.
2. I like Del Sol t-shirts. They change from white & black to color when exposed to the Sun. My youngest sister gave me the one I'm wearing in the photos.
3. I like to travel. We were in O'ahu for 5 days for a wedding of one of my hubby's nieces. Enjoyed a Polynesian Adventures bus tour. Went to Pearl Harbor but did not get to ride the boat out to the Arizona Memorial because the Navy who operates the boats cancelled all boat trips right before we were to board because they said it was too windy.
4. I like Pineapple. When we visited the Dole Plantation in O'ahu we saw many varieties. We found out that none of the Pineapples grown in O'ahu are exported and are only for consumption on the island of O'ahu. Had Pineapple for breakfast every morn. Hawaii has the best tasting Pineapple.
5. I like most of all seasfood with few exceptions. Seen here is wonderful tasty Macadami Crusted Mahi Mahi that hubby & I shared at our 1st evng dinner in O'ahu at Duke's restaurant in our hotel.
6. I like Hibiscus. This one in O'ahu is unusual with its many, curly petals.
