Tropical Window

Here's a Tropical Party card to show you today.  This one was inspired by a sway card I received from a fellow demonstrator, Gayle (I'm sorry, I don't know her last name).  She's one of my upline's sideline. My upline only has one downline (me) so I join in their swaps with my upline's upline and sideline.  (Wow, that's a mouth full!)  Back to the card...  Working a full-time job sometimes makes me feel like my short 4 day weekends just are never enough to get rested and rejuvenated.  So I find myself dreaming of a Hawaiian vacation while I sit in my lovely windowless cubicle.  Gayle's card inspired me to make a window looking out to the beautiful tropical paradise just beyond my reach. 

The coconut represents the little taste of paradise within my reach. What's in the coconut you ask?  Hmmm... a nice blended strawberry peach smoothie with a hint of pineapple juice perhaps.  Oh that sounds SOOO GOOD especially in this heat!

What would YOU have in your coconut?  Leave a comment below!

  2. I'm right there with you dreaming of that Hawaiian vacation. But your beautiful card is about as close to Hawaii that I'm going to get.

    Thanks for sharing,
