Sneaking this one in...

Hello everyone and a happy late Thursday evening to you!
I made this card for a challenge and am afraid that I'll forget to post it before time is up. ;) Please tell me I'm not the only one who does that!

 
I am trying to make cards with certain people in mind. This is for my niece Camryn whose middle name is Joy. I'll tuck in a gift card and send this off to her for Valentine's Day. Since she is the little Hawaiian girl herself, I used some flowers that I found for 99 cents in the wedding aisle at M's to put in Dahlia's (TGF) hair:

 

I used last week's The Pink Elephant sketch (see? I'm already late for that one! lol!) but also did it for Anya Ink's challenge of no printed designer paper. The bazzill base has that wonderful texture, and with my new MS border punch and CB'd white piece, I didn't even miss using patterned paper at all.
Thank you for popping by this late! See you tomorrow with the Raise The Bar challenge.
Happy rest of your evening and good night...
♥ and Aloha
