So here's a card I just finished using a Sparkle Creation image, Ukulele Josh. When I saw this image I thought he was so cute and would be perfect for a Hawaiian themed Christmas card!
Reminds me of my cousins playing their ukuleles and singing songs or talkin' story. I learned how to play last Thanksgiving, but since I haven't practiced I doubt I could remember where my fingers should go. The sentiment is computer generated, see below for a close-up. I thought it would be fun to put it right above the music notes. As if he was singing the Christmas song. :)
I found some cool non-Christmas papers to use from K&Company. They worked really well with my card. The flowers were leftovers from last year and the leaves are from a die set from Cheery Lynn Designs, tropical leaves. I tied two small pieces of twine into a knot and glued them to the center of the flowers.
I have a feeling this guy is going to end up on more Christmas cards this year. Alrighty friends, enjoy the rest of your Saturday and Mahalo for stopping in!

This is sweet, Leanne! I stopped by Joann's this morning fro some velcro...working on a project. You didn't miss anything. It's packed out there! Glad you decided to stay in and got some Holiday cards done! I really should too but have been so drained!
Hi Leanne,
Ohhhh, what an awesome Hawaiian Christmas card. I avoided the mall yesterday....too crazy and I didn't want to get trampled over. LOL. I couldn't resist shopping at Ben Franklin Crafts and Island Scrapbooking though. Got some GOOOOOD deals.
This is so cute Leanne. Love it. Especially the flower and everything. Your coloring is Awesome.
Hugs,
