#4 Art Journal Page Aloha Hibiscus - Hero Arts AlohaCoverPlate HibiscusFancyDie

Made the notebook some time ago and now making art journal pages inside the notebook.

Enjoyed trips to Hawaii: Maui with hubby & daughter & Oahu with hubby. In Maui we rented a car & drove the road to Hana and took a helicopter ride over Molakai & back. In Oahu we were there for hubby's niece that was getting married (was first beach wedding attended) and took a bus tour and got to tour a pineapple plantation. Both islands had wonderful looking Hibiscus of many colors.

Anyone else visited Hawaii?

Used Hero Arts Aloha Plate & Hibiscus Fancy Dies. Used some inks, watercoloring & stickles.
