Tropical Vibes
I will be getting away to Hawaii for Spring Break and thought I'd celebrate with a contest. I want to see your best tropical cards. There is so much to admire about island life, from its rich culture to its diverse wildlife, so show me what inspires you!
Criteria
1. 3 card entry max.
2. Old cards ok!
3. 7 point scale (3 pts. for Flavor, 3 pts. Playability/Mechanics, 1 pt. Templating [spelling, etc.]. Simpler cards will be judged on playability, more complex cards on mechanics.)
4. I love food and am looking forward to eating on my trip. 1 extra point will be awarded if food/eating is incorporated in some way, even if just in the art.
Deadline:
I will judge on March 25!
Prizes:
Likes galore!

Have fun in Hawaii, dude! Food is definitely one of my favorite things about traveling too!
Trying to capture that process mechanically means the card has serious memory issues tho...
I didn't realize how recently you'd used this art!
Here's another:
But it definitely feels like food!
I added the flavour text before reading the rules.
Okay, when I said "Best" I just meant "I made some a while ago"
The First card only makes sense if you go to the card page and read the whole thing!
