AWOW Blog Hop- It’s a Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood

Cheryl · September 14, 2022 · 11 Comments

Aloha and welcome to another edition of the Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop! Twenty of my Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator friends are joining me in this worldwide blog that stretches all the way from New Zealand to Hawaii across twelve different time zones.

The general theme for this month is “It’s a Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood”.  I’ve decided to focus on the beautiful place that I live:  Maui.

Sunkissed

Maui is surrounded by palm trees and I think we have the best beaches ever!  Fine sand, clear water, pretty fish & coral, and gorgeous sunsets. My birthday is this month and you can bet I’ll be spending it on the beach.

Beautiful Maui beach

Sunkissed

This card was fun and simple to make.  I stamped the image using Memento Ink then sponged on color using Blending Brushes and Sponge Daubers. And can you see the sun sparkling?  Just a touch of Wink of Stella.

I hope this project has inspired you to do some stamping and send out some Happy Mail!

    Beautiful, Cheryl! I love the beach and I’ve been lucky enough to holiday in Hawaii – although not on Maui. It is a lovely place to be. 🙂

    Ah, I understand. When you live by the ocean like you, you always want to look at it and get lost! aaah, it gives me a certain nostalgia for your post. I suddenly miss my native Mediterranean very much! Thank you for your beautiful card and happy birthday to you! Xx

    Oh my Cheryl, please save me a sun lounger. I earned the Maui Incentive Trip but sadly never made it further than my Craft Desk and a Zoom call celebration. What a fabulous place to live and a beautiful card to represent it also. You’re one lucky lady xx

      Oh, I’m so sorry you couldn’t make it over here. Consider your lounger saved, along with a fun pineapple drink & little umbrella. I’ll join you!!
