As I write this blog we are having one seriously crazy hail storm! I'm glad I made it home from work before it started!!! I'm for sure looking forward to some sun and flowers, which was my inspiration for this card. So I knew I needed to use my new Aloha Gina Marie die set. Who wouldn't want to drink from a coconut with an umbrella? Plus the flowers are fabulous, although time consuming, totally worth the end result. I hope you all enjoy!   Case This Sketch this week had a flower, but I decided I needed a few more on this card. http://casethissketch.blogspot.com/2017/05/case-this-sketch-223_25.html?m=1  List of supplies:
